Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are celebrity designers now.

They’ve been working on a capsule collection for Asprey for a year, which means that in between UN conferences, orphanage visits in Africa and raising however many children they have, the not-human couple found time to design a $525 baby spoon.

Their line, which aside from the baby spoon includes pave diamond snake rings, earrings and pendants, is called The Protector and inspired by snakes, or more specifically a non-Asprey snake ring Angelina wore while pregnant with her first child.

Brad and Angelina are still super humans though, so all net profits from The Protector will go to Education Partnership for Children of Conflict which helps, “children who most need a safe place to learn, a place to heal, a place to learn reconciliation, a place to build a better future and a place — to just be children.”

Two years ago we mentioned the making of a Gucci movie and wondered what, if any, role Tom Ford would play.

This was pre-Single Man and pre-soon-to-launch-womenswear and we relished the idea of seeing Tom Ford playing Gucci-era Tom Ford on screen. At the time, only Ridley Scott was attached to the project, but late last night Variety reported that Angelina Jolie’s ‘this close’ to signing on to the project.

She’d play Patrizia Reggiano, the matriarch who got twenty-nine years in jail for planning the assassination of her ex-husband, Maurizio Gucci. As of now, the movie’s plot will cover the 70’s and 80’s Gucci golden years, but they’re still looking for the perfect script, and thus the perfect writer. Ridley Scott’s also allegedly courting Leonardo DiCaprio for the role of Mr. Gucci.

Though nothing’s nailed down, and everyone’s actually attached to other projects at the moment, Fox is making the movie a 2010 priority and hoping to start production early next year. Of course, what we really want to know is, who’ll do the costumes? Or even better, will we see the actual Gucci archives on screen?

Well, Harper’s Bazaar, just when I think I’m out…you pull me back in.

I have made it entirely clear how I feel about a certain theme in the magazine (and subsequent coverlines.) But I did find our friend Bonnie Morrison’s piece about drinking and the social aspects of a job in fashion last month incredibly insightful. And now here you go putting my girl Tina Fey on the cover for November.

If you’re not going to put a model or a “typical” (and don’t you people get all fired up about that, you know what I mean and why it happens) fashion person on the cover, then this is the kind of smarts and beauty that I want to see. And an interview I might actually want to read. Not a paparazzi shot of Angelina Jolie with a less than interesting write-around story accompanying said picture.

So kudos, Glenda. You definitely win this round. How can I argue with a woman as awesome as Tina who says of her glasses, “And I don’t wear them when I am dressed up, because then I would look like Tootsie.” And also coined the phrase, “I want to go to there.” Well played, Ms. Bailey. Well played.

We love contests, especially when we win them. I obsessively completed those Publishers Clearing House ones for years when I was a kid, completely convinced that maybe, just maybe, I was going to make my family rich.

Well, this new one from Neutrogena may not pay off your college loans, but we think it would be super fun. It’s called the “Flaunt Your Inner Celebrity” contest which, we realize, is not the coolest name in the world. But if you win you get to fly to New York for a makeover with one of our favorite makeup artists, Matin, who has worked with Gwyneth, Angelina, Jennifer Garner and pretty much every major American fashion magazine. After you get all fancied up, you’ll have a proper fashion photo shoot and of course get to keep all your shots.

Sounds like a pretty good deal to us. You can enter on Neutrogena’s Facebook page. and if you win, we expect an exclusive on some of those shoot outtakes.

I have a complete fascination with Angelina Jolie. While I realize I am far from alone in this space, I know that there still exist many haters. Now aside from the striking beauty, the children, BRAD!, and the devotion to humanitarian issues, I’m a huge fan of the simplicity of her style.

The lady likes what she likes. What she likes is often black. And lately, she’s been doing the more goddess-y gown thing. So I for one was pretty psyched to see her going more old-school tough girl in this A/W Michael Kors black leather dress last night at the Inglourious Basterds premiere in LA.

I dare say she is one of very few actresses in Hollywood that could pull this off with the same badass attitude that Heidi Mount did on the runway.

Michael Kors must be pretty psyched right now as basicially the two most famous (and photographed) women in the country are choosing his clothes. While Michelle Obama has been spotted regularly at public appearances in Kors, Angelina, not so much. Though we hear that she wears lots in “real life” and that the designer has even created capsule collections for her.

So do you think Diane Kruger’s pissed?

Designer Malcolm Harris hung up on Angelina Jolie twice when she called him up to order some dresses.

You know, because usually when you answer the phone, the most famous actress in the world is not on the other end. Maybe he should have asked to speak to Maddox for confirmation?

Anyway, he finally believed it was the real Angie and took her order for three of his One-Dress - which got us wondering about said dress.

Turns out that Harris spent about a year and a half gathering the opinions of women, via social networking outlets like Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, and ASmallWorld, about everything from fabric to cut to color and then created the One-Dress.

You can wear it in a million different ways and it’s meant for every body shape. Check out the website to see options that people have come up with. As you’d expect, some are great and some are not.

We can actually imagine Angelina working something nice out. Plus, there’s totally a humanitarian aspect which we’re sure is how she came to find it in the first place. A chunk of the proceeds go to Womankind Worldwide and KIVA.org.

All in all, kind of a cool thing.

We just saw the new cover of Harper’s Bazaar online and let us say that we were a bit surprised.

The cover image is pick-up art from a red carpet event back in December, so the shot may look familiar to you. And inside there is no accompanying interview with the usually candid Angie. Instead, there is an essay by Naomi Wolf (of The Beauty Myth fame) titled “Why Women Want Angelina Jolie’s Life” which we think is rather obvious. But that’s not even our problem here.

Bazaar is meant to be one of our venerable American fashion magazines. And this reeks of tabloids, more than fashion.

I worked in magazines for many, many years. The importance of newsstand sales is something I know all too well. But throwing Angelina’s face onto the cover and doing a write-around story is such an obvious sales ploy that it makes me sad for Bazaar and for the state of magazines in general.

Nobody can stop talking about the December Vogue cover with Jennifer Aniston. Some are fixated by the Photoshopping, but most are shockingly interested in Jennifer calling out Angelina on stealing her husband back in 2005 and now semi-gloating about it.

But our reaction went more like this: Since when does Vogue put up cover lines, like the one at left, like they’re Us Weekly?

“What Angelina Did Was Very Uncool” sounds like something I might glimpse on the cover of somebody’s trash mag while on a neighboring treadmill, not what America’s leading fashion magazine should use to sell their issue.

We get that cover lines are all about grabbing the newsstand browser, and that anything about Angelina obviously sells, but still, forgive us for thinking there were boundaries.

Not to mention, that quote isn’t even correctly attributed to their cover girl - the extended quote reveals that she actually said something considerably different. But, we guess that doesn’t matter if you’re selling it like Star.

Have you seen the posters for Zac and Miri Make a Porno?

They have little stick figures and say something like, “Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks made a movie so steamy/outrageous/titillating that this is all we can show you.”

We thought it was cute. But then we read that the original posters were just too scandalous for America, which is why they had to scratch the real life pictures and go with stick figures.

You can see the original at left, and we’d hardly call it “titillating”. Especially not compared to the gigantic Calvin Klein ad featuring a naked, writhing Eva Mendes outside our office, or the pages of men wearing Dolce & Gabbana skivvies in every magazine, or even the pictures of Angelina Jolie in this month’s W.

What would’ve happened if, when Tom Ford’s toe-sucking fragrance ads got banned, he broke out a sharpie and drew a stick figure’s toe in another stick figure’s mouth?

Um, hope you’ve already had lunch.

Today’s WWD has images of the new Burberry campaign, for which Christopher Bailey dropped Agyness for lesser known model, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

It might be a sad day for Agyness - Burberry was kind of her calling card, and the new campaign looks a little dull anyway.

But something tells us she might be too busy laughing her way to the bank to care - Shiseido’s swapped one serious face for another, dropping Angelina Jolie (after two years) for Agyness!

We love when beauty companies use real models, but probably not as much as Agyness loves that beauty company-sized paycheck.

Shirley Maclaine will play Coco Chanel in an upcoming biopic, and it just gets weirder:

The project is a Lifetime TV miniseries, which chronicles Chanel’s later years returning to Paris, after exiling herself in Germany and Switzerland during World War II.

According to Variety, the project is completely endorsed by both Chanel and Karl Lagerfeld, with costume designer Stefano de Nardis even getting archival research from the company.

The program will run next year on Lifetime. Meanwhile, the Chanel feature-length movie, Coco Avant Chanel, has begun production in Paris, with Audrey Tautou as the lead.

Demi Moore is still rumored to be in talks for an American Chanel movie, and we think that would be fantastic - but Angelina Jolie would be cool for the part, too.
