From hip hop heels to a Hamburg Hotel,
Hint pays attention to retail
Join the jet set aboard Dries Van Noten's global flight of fancy. His haute hippie frequent buyers can't resist the laid-back luxury of his ethnic-inspired designs; the bohemian Belgian mixes up references from around the world to create an exotic aesthetic that manages to avoid a melting-pot cliché. Sift through his souk at Barneys New York, 660 Madison Ave., 212-826-8900.

Christian Dior Homme
Hedi Slimane has a few tricks up his sleeveless shirt. Since taking the helm at Christian Dior Homme in 2001, the pinstripe-thin designer has championed lean cuts paired with exotic accents, launching a mini-revolution in menswear. For Fall, he strategically fixes shredded wool fringe along shirt seams, giving his urban urchins another reason to strut their stuff. From $260, Barneys New York, 660 Madison Ave. 212-826-8900
