Why did Patti Smith RSVP to attend DEGEN's Fall 2012 presentation this afternoon? Chic trekked over to 91 Horatio Street, where Lindsay Degen's sophomore knit-based collection was on display, to get the dish from the designer herself. "Oh, I didn't know she was coming!" said Degen. Pourquoi? Clever PR hands keeping nerves at bay, of course! 

"Patti had contacted someone who knows me about working together, but it hasn't panned out yet. I don't know exactly what the collaboration will be. She's kind of anti-fashion, so I don't really see her wearing it," shared Degen. "I'd love to do a piece for her to perform in, or maybe a banjo cover. She also plays the clarinet, so maybe I can design some swag for that." Stay tuned!
