A modern arboretum brings us that ancient forest and, with it, a changed apprehension of time, a renewed appreciation of the elegance of natural form and a renewed sense of wonder at the variety of the world we inhabit.

We do not need to be heroes to save the world; all we need is humility, a critical view of the commercial and political interests of those who would mislead us into wrongdoing, and a sense of wonder.

The ancient world was fairly modern for its time.

Anyone who has ever stopped to watch a hawk in flight will know that this is one of the natural world's most elegant phenomena.

The Bill Blass name is instantly recognizable around the world for design, classic elegance and high quality. We are proud to expand our relationship with Bill Blass to include these two new footwear lines. These Bill Blass lines will enable The Fashion House to further broaden our portfolio of products and deepen our penetration into key sales channels.

There is no such thing as a natural fit between form and content. Seamless elegance would be tantamount to erasure.
