CADILLAC CONCIERGE: Really, it should be called Guilty Sisterhood. Then designer Kevork Kiledjian wouldn’t constantly be asked about the meaning behind his fashion label, “Guilty Brotherhood.” Intrinsically, women would know: it means guilty pleasure.

Everybody has been asking me this question, but some things just cannot be explained,” Kiledjian said. “This name truly imposed itself to me -- I had it mind for 10 years. I like the mystery that this name conveys, the idea of a community united around a guilty pleasure.”
Guilty Brotherhood is about intense indulgence. Just look at the fall collection with its draped black leather rocker pants, fluffy fox chubby and luscious red wool coat fit for a fairy tale heiress. And what about the crisp black satin pantsuit with peaked shoulders? Or the webby lace dresses? Kiledjian describes his fall 2010 collection as “when Alfred Hitchcock meets Helmut Newton.” No wonder Forty Five Ten picked it up for the new season.
“It definitely has a tough chic sensibility,” said Brian Bolke, co-owner of Forty Five Ten. “It will appeal to a customer that loves Alaia and McQueen. The quality is superb.”
