http://travel2.nytimes.com/2006/08/06/travel/06transhotel.html Call it “Project Runway” meets “All About Eve.” Daniel Vosovic, the runner-up in last season's show, in which up-and-coming fashion designers compete for $100,000 to back their own clothing line, has just signed on to create the uniforms for NYLO, a new North American hotel chain aimed at young business travelers. Mr. Vosovic, right, will design clothing for staff members at the chain's proposed 150 to 175 hotels. 就稱為"決戰時裝伸展台"遇上"彗星美人"(註)吧。在上一季由新起時裝設計師逐十萬美 元獎金以開創自己品牌的實境節目秀中，亞軍丹尼爾與一家以年輕的商旅為主要目標的 連鎖旅館(NYLO)簽約，將為該家預計擁有150-175間旅館的職員設計制服。 註: 彗星美人(1950)描述劇場演員圈中的秘辛故事。貝蒂黛薇絲飾演舞台劇的傑出資深演員， 一日結識了頭號影迷（安妮伯絲特飾）並將其收為專職助理，但卻發現她正以陰險的計畫 來一步步取代自己……！ But in a twist that sounds like one of the competitions from that Bravo series, Mr. Vosovic has a big-name rival in his new venture: Michael Kors, the designer who is one of the judges of Project Runaway and who had previously offered a job to Mr. Vosovic, which the younger man turned down. Mr. Kors has signed a deal with Starwood to design uniforms for its 20 W Hotels worldwide. 但是卻有個意料不到的發展，聽起來很像是決戰時裝伸展台中的挑戰，就是他會與該節目 的評審，也是之前表示願意給他工作機會的麥克正面交鋒。麥克也已經與Starwood簽下合 約，將為該公司旗下遍佈全球的20 W旅館設計制服。 When asked if he knew that Mr. Kors was also now in the hotel-uniform business, Mr. Vosovic, who had been chatting away during a phone interview, suddenly went silent. After a long pause, he said, “No.” The discussion quickly returned to his own work. 在電話訪問中極為健談的丹尼爾被問到他知不知道麥克現在也跨足旅館制服生意的時候， 他突然沉寂了下來。停了一陣子不說話後，他回道：”不知道。”然後把話題拉回他的工 作上。 Mr. Vosovic, 25, said he planned to create uniforms (called the Daniel Vosovic Collection for NYLO Hotels) that “fit in with the interior 60’s de'cor” of NYLO's hotels, the first of which is scheduled to open in 2007 in Warwick, R.I. “The clothing line will be an extension of the brand NYLO,” Mr. Vosovic said, who also said that he wanted to make the clothing “fun and wearable but with a mod twist.” Mr. Vosovic’s clothing will also be sold at the hotels and online. 廿五歲的渥索維琪先生說他打算自創稱之為丹尼爾渥索維琪系列的制服，他期望這系列的 制服能貼合該旅館內六零年代風格的裝潢。這家連鎖旅館的第一間旅館預計2007年時在羅 德島的渥維克開幕。渥索維琪先生還說他希望他能做一些有趣、具實穿性但是帶有些許現 代風格的衣服。他所設計的這些衣服將可以在這間旅館裡或網路上買到。 Meanwhile, W Hotels has introduced Mr. Kors's new uniforms at the W Dallas Victory Hotel & Residences, which opened last month. Each item, from the blouses and pants to the blazers and tank tops are deliberately similar in look to the clothing line in his 350 stores. “I am constantly traveling and find myself in hotels around the world wondering, ‘What is the staff wearing and why can't hotel staffs look fabulous and sporty?” Mr. Kors said in a statement issued by his publicist. “Now I can answer my own question.” （最後兩段講麥克的就不翻了） --
