Y&R's Restless Style Press Conference

George Kotsiopoulos, formerly of The New York Times Magazine, and currently style director at C Magazine, is lending his fashion and style expertise for Restless Style 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.
