"  My absolute favorite dress from Thakoon&amp;#039;s Spring show\u2013I die for the thing. Gorgeous. Usually I&amp;#039;m all for total weekend relaxation\u2014brunching, dating, hanging with friends, staying out too late, and the occasional movie. However, I have an assignment for this weekend and I want y&amp;#039;all to do it with me. Thakoon (one of my favorite designers) has created a pretty poufy-sleeved white t-shirt, which he does not want to leave blank. In other words, he needs a cool, sophisticated, and original graphic design to splash on the front of it. SO. ELLE is holding a contest with him to see who can turn in the best design. Thakoon himself will be judging it along with our esteemed creative director Joe Zee, the owners of perennially chic clothing boutique Kirna Zabete, and of course, my favorite boss Keith Pollock, the executive editor of ELLE.com. That&amp;#039;s a lot of talent to impress on one judging panel, I know, but the prize (if you win it) is totally worth it: your design will be on a Thakoon shirt, featured in ELLE, and sold at Kirna Zabete. Plus you&amp;#039;ll get a $1000 gift certificate to the store. Which is actually the best part of this entire thing.  Anyway, you&amp;#039;ve got until December 15th to enter, but I&amp;#039;m working on mine this weekend. I&amp;#039;ll even post the results if you promise not to laugh. Happy drawing!
