Major Thing We Missed During NYFW: US Weekly Hearts Scott and Garance?
By Lauren ShermanSometimes I feel as though I live in a fashion bubble. There are people that are fashion famous–or at least very well-known in fashion circles–that I assume those who work outside of the industry aren’t particularly familiar with. Anna Dello Russo may be a rock star to me and those who read this site, but has my 22-year-old cousin living in Washington D.C. and working at Nikon ever heard of her? Unlikely.
So I was a little surprised last weekend when, whilst flipping though a copy of US Weekly on my first day off since September 5, I stumbled upon the rag’s annual list of Most Stylish New Yorkers. Along with the usual suspects–Gossip Girl’s Kelly Rutherford, Katie Couric, our favorite PR powerhouse, Kelly Cutrone–two bold-faced names stood out in particular: Scott Schuman and Garance Dore.
Now, before you say “Wait, this is old news!” I know. But like most fashion people, I wasn’t paying attention to anything outside of Lincoln Center and Milk Studios on September 14. I was too busy worrying about the fact that The Row just canceled their New York show to scan the latest issue of US. So forgive me. But I feel compelled to share my thoughts with you anyways, dear reader.
Although I doubt we’ll be seeing this particular superlative mentioned on The Sartorialist homepage underneath “Selected as one of Time Magazine’s Top 100 Design Influencers”, it might be even more significant. This means that the editors of US Weekly–who, mind you, cater to some of the wealthiest readers in the country–believe that the masses like and admire Scott and Garance not only as a pair of bloggers, but a romantic pair. If the duo’s television show ever does get made, they could very well become the next Nick and Jessica. Seriously.

It’s almost a scary thought…I don’t know that I necessarily want them going on to becoming huge global celebrities. Maybe it’s just possessiveness, but I kind of want to keep them as the fashion community’s stars, not the rest of the world’s.

I get you. But how great would it be if this show knocked the Kardashians off the radar. It would be a better beautiful world with Garrance or people like her on TV. Besides,there will always be a new fashion cult start to love.
^^ Oh I agree. I’ve never cared much for Scott and I doubt a TV show will help me warm up to him, he seems like a real jerk.
Garance though… Garance is such a sweetheart, I adore her. She has an ease to her that is quite endeering and charming, I would hate to see her becoming just another reality star and loose that.
Well if it isn’t exploitation like most reality TV, then I am all for something more like a documentary like series of both of them. The fashion coverage these days the more young brands get recognized to the masses. Hopefully that means more jobs and more money!
I saw the list in US Weekly and thought it was a joke. A lot of the people on the list are not what I call stylish.
Scott is like… 7 inches tall. Not exactly a romantic pair.
I meaaan that would be amazing!!!
The world would be such a more stylish place haha
jk..but not really! Either way love what Scott and Garance
have done for the fashion community!
