The Mayor already put together his list for the Top 50 AF1s of all-time, but that was before he got the chance to get a look at this pair in an all navy colorway. Staying true to the classic silhouette, the leather upper is dipped in a navy blue from the perforated toe box to the Nike branded heel tab. Navy is also responsible for the coloring of the laces, although it is in a slightly darker tint. The final touch to the design is the translucent outsole. If you look closely, you can see through the navy hue in the ribbed outsole and see a checker board pattern design. They are available now at your local Footaction brick and mortar.

According to Robb Report last month, Richard Mille’s RM 025 Tourbillon Chronograph Diver’s Watch (about $450,000) finally arrived at U.S. dealers, more than a year after it was unveiled to the world. As one would expect, Mille went to extremes with its first submersion into the dive realm. The RM 025 boasts a carbon nano-fiber tourbillon chronograph movement housed in a (notably) round tripartite case designed to stay watertight to 300 meters. Mille recently followed up with a slightly smaller (47mm) and less complicated titanium RM 028 (about $79,000) with hours, minutes, and central seconds. www.richardmille.com

Ivanka Trump is betting on shoes. According to sources the model-turned-businesswoman, author and designer has inked a deal for a contemporary footwear line via a licensing agreement with Marc Fisher Footwear.
“Ivanka had been thinking about a footwear line and someone recommended Marc Fisher to her. Simultaneously, we saw Ivanka’s iconic style as an opportunity to fill a niche in the footwear business,” said Marc Fisher President Susan Itzkowitz. “When we met, we realized our visions were one and the same and the partnership was formed.”
Beyond that similar take on fashion, the Marc Fisher brand was impressed by Trump’s dedication to her career.
“We believe Ivanka has something fresh and distinctive to offer in what is otherwise a celebrity-saturated market,” Marc Fisher, CEO of his eponymous firm, said in a statement.
“She has substance, a successful career and fashionable life that is appealing to all women.”
In addition to her developing footwear collection, Trump is exploring further licensing opportunities for apparel and accessories. She already has an eponymous jewelry collection, which is housed in the Ivanka Trump Collection flagship on Madison Avenue.
“Our deal was finalized within two weeks of meeting Marc Fisher. I knew immediately that we would be able to successfully collaborate together and that he could execute our vision in accordance with my design aesthetic,” said Trump. “I am confident that our partnership will produce the type of quality and high style product that will appeal to many.”

In our ENTnext feature we are pleased to bring you upcoming talents in all forms of business. I recently had an opportunity to sit down and talk with Clothing Designer Haven Prescott Jr. Founder and Ceo of Moral Fabrix for a Quick 6, Check it Out:
1.Alexis: What would you say your biggest inspiration is for starting your clothing line?
Haven: Biggest inspiration was my mother. Before she passed, I told her that I would start my own business and be successful. Then when 9/11 hit I came up with the name Moral Fabrix. I had a love for skateboarding and wanted to give a clothing line where Rock/Hip-Hop and European influence would all be fused together. To let the world know that you don’t have to just like one genre but multitudes. The term for this fusion is called Skurban.
2. Alexis:How does your family feel about you starting your own clothing line? Are they supportive or skeptical?
Haven: In the beginning my father was skeptical. He was actually the reason for me not pursuing going to School for fashion. He told me that it wouldn’t be beneficial and that I needed to choose a different career path. My brothers and sister have always supported what I have wanted to do. They have always believed in my vision. Now as years have passed and things have progressed in my business, my father sees how I have excelled, and he could not be more proud. He completely supports me and does not doubt any decision that I make.
3. Alexis: How long have you been a clothing designer for? Did you always know that this was what you wanted to do?
Haven: Wow, well lets see I have always been artistic. From a young age I would always draw pictures of people, scenery, clothing. I would have to say that by the age of 8 or 9 I knew I was going to be involved in fashion. All the kids would always notice me by the clothes I would wear. At a young age I was already making a statement and everyone noticed. I also used to model at the age of 17, so I’ve always been in the industry from a young age and always had a sense of style. It was in 1999 at the age of 22 that I realized that I wanted to be a clothing designer.
