Net-a-Porter has models! The already almost-perfect British shopping site has finally started shooting their clothes, shoes and accessories on actual people (there’s a small office contingent that thinks they’re computer-generated, but they look real to me). It’s amazing the difference seeing clothes draped on mannequins versus actual people makes, even if the people are of [...]

Achy Breaky Heart

Just when we thought that word of a possible Ungaro/Lohan pairing was as bad as we’d see this week in fashion meets Hollywood news, WWD tells us that Max Azria is partnering with Miley Cyrus for a juniors line that will sell at Wal-Mart. While obviously this collaboration makes more sense to us, at least [...]

Pop-up shops are all the rage this past year: Target, Puma, Pam Hogg, et cetera. But what about pop-up shops for other things? Books and magazines to be exact. LOVE blogged that Angela Hill, who manages book selection at Dover Street and Colette in London, yesterday opened a pop up shop of books at St. [...]

We at Fashionista are having yet another debate this afternoon. This time, a back and forth over the July cover of British Vogue, which features a heavily made up Julianne Moore. Shot by Alasdair McLellan, the coverline calls Moore “the most glamorous grown-up on screen.” We all like Julianne (some of us more than others), [...]

A Change of Heart?

As we’ve all heard, Henri Bendel is going to stop selling clothes and focus only on accessories. But, it turns out that is not exactly the case. A friend of Fashionista just told us that at the store has indeed ordered some coats, capelets, and cropped jackets to appear in the store for fall. Which [...]

I think I spent an entire month watching over-the-knee boots march down runways. From Rodarte in New York, to Pam HoggLondon in and Louis Vuitton in Paris – and about a million in between – they were everywhere, but aside from Lauren Santo Domingo‘s turn in custom-made Brian Atwoods, we’d placed stretchy leather up to [...]

Yo, Home to Bel Air: He was West Philadelphia born and raised, hence that street style the Fresh Prince brought to SoCal. We’re liking the revival. Wonder what Uncle Phil thinks? {Refinery29} Are You Kidding?: This kind of cuteness must be shared with the world, even if you don’t consider yourself child-friendly. {Garance} Tatiana on [...]

Just Say No

This morning Page Six reports that Lindsay Lohan is in Paris talking to the House of Ungaro about a role as a “creative consultant.” Apparently, Esteban Cortazar isn’t happy about it. And rightly so. If this is true, we hope he stands his ground against this very transparent publicity ploy. He’s the best thing that’s [...]

We’re always excited when the latest Naomi Campbell gossip isn’t lawsuit-related, so it was great to hear that Karl’s shooting her in Moscow for a V Magazine spread. We love that two of our favorite icons are teaming up in the city that Karl paid homage to with his pre-fall collection in December. But actually, [...]

Designer Yearbook

For this year’s CFDA Journal portraits of the nominees, models and muses were replaced by the designers themselves. DvF told the creative team she wanted something “fabulous” and from what we’ve seen so far, she should be very pleased. WWD has a few of the photographs, including this one of Marc wearing his LV bunny [...]
