A brief Bio from Wikipedia.org:
Patricia Field is a well known stylist and fashion designer from the United States. She is the owner of Patricia Field boutique, located at 302 Bowery in New York City.
Before beginning the first season of the Sex and the City television series on HBO, Sarah Jessica Parker asked to have Field design some of the clothes that her character, Carrie Bradshaw, would wear. During Field's tenure as costume designer on Sex and the City, the show became famous for the fashions showcased. For her work on Sex and the City, Field was nominated for 5 Emmy Awards, with one win, and nominated for 6 Costume Designers Guild Awards, with 4 wins.
She was the costume designer for the feature film The Devil Wears Prada, for which she was nominated for an Oscar.

AmsterDAMN (I can't beleive I missed it) Fashion Week
Who knew Amsterdam had a fashion week?
Papierdoll Fashion Magazine recently covered Amsterdam International Fashion Week which took place from July 21 - 30, 2007. Some of the fashion designers featured included Andrea Oitin, whose models came down the catwalk in socks (yes, socks!), and Ilja Visser whose collection consists of pieces that any fashion minimalist would find intriguing.
...I think it's important to help spread the word so that people will be exposed to non-mainstream designers.

However, here are the Editors' Notes from Net-a-porter.com

How To Find Your Size
Men -As a general rule, a man's measurement is the same as his size. Where small, medium, large, etc. are concerned, the best way to ensure proper fit is to know your measurements. Always consult online merchant's size charts and fit tips.
Women -Sizes means nothing!! One manufacturer's size 8 is another one's 12. UK sizes look the same as US, but they're not. Because US sizing has changed over the years, finding your size in vintage clothing can be a challenge. But armed with your accurate measurements, you can decipher any sizing system.
