Their relationship is further complicated by Mike's ex-flame, who is cast coincidentally in a new musical for which Marilla is designing the costumes, and a racketeer out to put the muscle on Mike for some of his writing.
The latter problem causes Mike to move into a hotel while pretending to be on another road trip and when Marilla inevitably finds out he's been lying to her about more than one important thing, their relationship threatens to fall apart.

The designer, arguably the top woman in the country's male-dominated fashion industry, has just taken her bow after the runway show, which featured her urban take on the preppy look.
Her company, which she founded in 1984 after working as the head designer for the Anne Klein label, was sold to the French conglomerate LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SA in early 2001, and her husband Stephan Weiss, with whom she worked side-by-side every day, died that June from lung cancer.
The terrorist attacks, Karan says, almost put her over the edge, but she soon realized she was more than one woman with her own worries; she had a responsibility to lead her family, including three children and five grandchildren, and the company, which she says is still part of her identity.

Anyone who thinks that Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus is a cutting-edge idea will be surprised by Designing Woman, a 1957 comedy starring Gregory Peck as a sports writer who falls madly in love with fashion designer Lauren Bacall.
What ensues is hilarious encounters between her society coterie and his down-home group of blue-collar writers, setting up perfectly for the witty repartee between Bacall and Peck that defines the movie.
Designing Woman seems to be a little known film, but I'm certainly glad I found it because it kept me laughing, which brought...

 Designing Woman (1957) - Review By DAILY-REVIEWS.COM   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Warner Bros. presents Designing Woman on DVD in a bright Cinemascope print rich in color and detail.
Rose sits at a table, silently pretending to listen (while the local reporters “ask” pre-scripted questions), and offering canned responses on Hollywood fashion design, like “a woman should be a beautiful jewel.” I suspect Marilla Hagen, with her edgy sophistication, might balk at such an oversimplification.
In any case, Designing Woman is quite like a beautiful jewel itself: shiny, polished, and entertaining - and it has held its value well over the years.

As many of you have probably seen, TV-on-DVD is currently flooding the marketplace, and as a result, the holders of the publishing rights to the music are asking a price that the DVD studio is simply unwilling to pay because it will drive up the cost of the release past the project's budget limits.
In the case of Designing Women, the situation is heightened by the fact that there were many popular songs used in the episodes that create additional licensing costs.
Representatives at Sony have personally told Designing Women Tribute that a release as soon as 2005 is unlikely but have assured us that negotiations will continue.

 Journal of Student Writing
Brontë's identity as a mid-nineteenth century woman writer places her in a highly politicized expressive space in which she would have had the unique opportunity to re-negotiate the authority of the (woman) writer, and the literary ideal of the feminine.
Within the literary forum of her novel, Brontë subversively debates the perception of the woman artist in ways she probably could not were she to address this issue in a more direct, critical manner.
However, as Lucy Snowe, Brontë's "designing woman" shows us, this dangerously overlooks the adaptable and creative energies of women who have endured all manner of manipulation, persecution, and suppression throughout the arts and throughout the ages.

 Designing Woman DVD Review
"Designing Woman" is a wonderful movie that gives ample opportunity for the magnificent Gregory Peck to show off his comedic skills, however subtly.
I saw this film after "Roman Holiday" and it cemented my image of Peck as a dashing and charming leading man who brings out the comedic best in his leading ladies.
Designing Woman seems to be a little known film, but I'm certainly glad I found it because it kept me laughing, which brought others into the room to watch it with me. Now I just wish that Peck had made more movies like this.
