Gotta Have Sweet, Gotta Have Juicy Couture

August 2007: It was the quote pulled ’round the world. Fashionista Diaries‘ cast member Nicole told everyone that her favorite designer was Juicy Couture. Fast forward to September 2007: Karlie Kloss, Teen Vogue cover girl, adds Juicy to a “three way tie” between Miuccia and Marc.

Genevieve Jones, The T-Shirt

Our favorite news from last night’s dinner party: Genevieve Jones is teaming up with artist and t-shirt maven Dana Veraldi (whom you probably remember from the Agyness Deyn tees of last season) on a new project that’s TBA (but we bet it’s connected to Genevieve’s hyper-cute jewelry line). To celebrate, Ms. Dana created the Genevieve [...]

Margherita and Damon – Design Duo

Rebecca from Stylehive just clued us into the best collaboration we’ve heard of since Proenza for Target – Margherita Missoni and Damon Dash are working together to create a new line of sneakers for ProKeds to benefit Orphanaid Africa. The line will consist of six pairs of sneaks covered in collages of Africa-inspired prints (we’d [...]

Barneys and Loomstate Recycle Together

If you were planning on using some old t-shirts as rags or just bottom-of-the-dresser-drawer fluff, you might want to hang on a couple more weeks. Starting April 13, all Barneys stores will accept all those “vintage” tees from Urban you bought when you first started school, and hand them over to Loomstate so Rogan Gregory [...]

Goodbye Gallagher’s

Attention designers, fashion students, interns and magazine addicts: Gallagher’s on 12th Street is (almost) officially no more. WWD reports that the 17-year old basement store, piled high with what seems like every copy of every magazine ever (they have over a million editions), will close up at the end of this week, due to a [...]

Prada Casting Director, Part Two

This weekend, we received an official statement from IMG about the Russel Marsh rumor. Here’s what it said: “The allegation that Prada or Miu Miu have utilized models managed by IMG based on anything more than their talent is ridiculous and flatly untrue. We have the privilege of representing many of the most beautiful and [...]

Would You Wear Hammer Pants?

It’s been over a year since Marc Jacobs showed harem pants on his Spring ’07 runway, but we’re just now spotting them in H&M and on Topshop’s website. The latter just posted their newest trend category called, “Can’t Touch This,” (which also happens to be Vogue‘s new phrase of choice). The collection includes a pair [...]

Hedi Slimane, California Boy?

Question: What’s Hedi Slimane doing in Los Angeles? We got some e-mails spotting the former Dior Homme designer in various L.A. hot spots. Is he casting more skinny boys for an upcoming photo exhibit? Or is there something more business-worthy going on? Hit us up if you know – tips@fashionista.com – and if you see [...]

Brody Jenner, Model Agent

Here’s a considerably less salacious story from the modeling world: At the Victoria’s Secret Pink party in Miami last week, Brody Jenner told Behati Prinsloo (and basically anyone who would listen) that he was very close to starting his own modeling agency in Los Angeles. Mr. Jenner joins Donald Trump and Janice Dickinson in the [...]

Step By Step, Ooh Baby

I promised you a Heidi braid how to, so I’ve done my best to capture the process in pictures. I personally think pretty much every hair style, whether up or down, looks better just a little bit messy – random out of place wisps and the occasional lump add character. Plus, by the time it’s [...]
