West Hollywood Bans The Sale of Fur: It’s the first U.S. city to do so. The law doesn’t include animal pelts or secondhand/vintage pieces though. {Daily Mail}
Ricky’s Was Going To Sell An “Anna Rexia” Costume: It featured a skeleton frame printed on a skintight black dress and had a “measuring tape” belt, presumably so the wearer could show off how tiny her waist is. Obvious outcry forced the store to pull the costume; how did this even get produced in the first place?? {Jezebel}
Watch Tavi Rap In A Cab: Refinery29 interviewed the 15-year-old blogger about her fashion week experience, high school and secret talents, which includes rapping Nicki Minaj. {Refinery29}
Emily Blunt Is The New Face Of YSL’s Opium Perfume: The hilarious Devil Wears Prada comedienne and wife of John Krasinski is the star of YSL Opium’s fall print and TV campaign. Apparently there’s a leopard involved and Patrick Demarchelier shot the print ads; here’s hoping for something deliciously sex-ified. {WWD}
Lindsay Wixson Talks About Fashion Week, Shows Us How To Shoot A Gun: Watch a little video diary of Wixson at NYFW Spring 2012 where she talks about keping grounded, being hated on in high school and the proper firearm technique. {Telegraph}
Insane Traffic Over Alexa Chung For Madewell Crashed The Retailer’s Site: The It Girl’s second line for Madewell was so popular that, like the Missoni for Target craze, it crashed the brand’s website and e-commerce within hours. It’s back up now. {Telegraph}
Fashion Forward’s New Campaign Stars 11 Mega-Models: The initiative to combat HIV/AIDS is filming PSAs starring big guns like Andrej Pejic, Crystal Renn and Lea T, which will run on ABC. They have a fundraiser, too, hosted by Brad Goreski. {WWD subscription required}
DryBar Offers $40 Blow Outs For Everyone: The West Coast hair salon gives $40 blow outs regardless of hair length, plays chick flicks and has spots for you to charge your iPhone. It’s going to be swamped. {NY Times}
Rachel Comey Launched A Website: No e-commerce, but there are behind-the-scenes peeks at her design technique and process. {Refinery29}
