George Kotsiopoulos, formerly of The New York Times Magazine, and
currently style director at C Magazine, is lending his fashion and style
expertise for this venture and will also be appearing on "Y&R" as a fashion
consultant. Additionally, lifestyle and fashion writer/editor/reporter Peter
McQuaid, who contributes to The New York Times Magazine, InStyle Magazine and
The Los Angeles Times, is also joining George for this venture by overseeing
and providing editorial content for RestlessStyle.com.
"We love being able to offer this innovative extension of our show not
only to our loyal viewers, but to anyone who loves to follow fashion, beauty
and trends. 'Y&R' has always had a glamorous edge to it, while still remaining
accessible to viewers. We feel this site will offer something for everyone
while also providing additional story elements for our fans that will run
alongside what you see on the show everyday," said Josh Griffith, executive
producer, "THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS."
Furthermore, fans of the daytime drama will be able to see things from the
show crossing over onto the site, blurring the lines between reality and
fantasy, while engaging users with interactive features such as a slideshow
widget, powered by Moblyng (formerly known as Fliptrack), that allows personal
photos depicting favorite fashion trends to be uploaded onto the site. Users
can also grab the widget and embed it onto their blogs, social networks and
websites. The site also allows fans to customize their own playlist from the
five different themes -- New York Lifestyle, Hollywood Lounge, Summer Stylin',
Paris Runway and Restless Style.
