Behind the Scenes Girl

Along with our desire for Simon Doonan to pretty please start Tweeting, I would also like to add having a drink and a chat with photographer Roxanne Lowit to my list for Santa. I’ve long been a fan of her celebrity portraits, her editorials and especially her nightlife shots. She’s also been shooting backstage at [...]

WWD: The Magazine

Just yesterday, with the demise of ID (not i-D) and the end of 2009 (which will live on in infamy as the year the media broke) approaching, we started wondering about the crazies who started magazines this year.

She covers their January issue in a picture that makes Jennifer Aniston’s shorts-only shot look conservative, but she spent this weekend making up for it on a shoot with actual fashion for W. We hope she wears this McQueen (at least the top), this Proenza [...]

An Open Letter to Leighton Meester

Dear Leighton, So maybe we’re used to you oozing Upper East Side debutante in Blair’s Ralph Lauren pea coats and Nanette Lepore frocks, and we are open to change, but we’ve really started to worry about your recent choice of outfits.
