Again, the more excited we get for Fashion’s Night Out - it’s really going to be epic - the more worried we get about people not shopping. Sure, the stores will be packed, but no one’s going to head to the dressing rooms when they’re struggling to catch a glimpse of an Olsen or a Miller.
It’s especially weird to watch this video - in which everyone from Michael Kors and Bradley Cooper to Diane Kruger and Vera Wang discuss the fashion industry’s dire situation - while they’re decked in diamonds and their finest custom get-up for the CFDA’s.
“I told my agent, ‘I want to do anything to do with fashion. I’m amazed how fast it [the show] is, in two minutes it’s over.” - Bradley Cooper to WWD from the front row at Louis Vuitton. We have the Valentino movie to thank for our obsession’s new found obsession. That movie just keeps on giving.
Just to quickly recap the very swingin’ Whitney Art party last night, Britt was totally right, bandage dresses took over the room. (To be noted though, Britt did opt for something very hot herself!)
The music was old-school (loved). The champers ran out two hours in (did not love). And the room was filled with amazing art and all the cool kids from Camilla Belle and Hilary Rhoda to Anne Slowey and Joe Zee.
We can’t lie, though, the highlight of the evening was not running into Brian Reyes and snagging an invite to his huge new design space (though that was lovely) or perusing the pieces of art that, sadly, we didn’t have the funds to bid on.
No, it was Bradley Cooper. What can we say: we’re girls, he’s way dreamier in person, and the smile, god, the smile. Even cynical fashion types swooned in his presence. We saw at least two ladies hand him their cards.
Sorry, enough with the crushing when we should be talking about fashionable things. He just does that to us.
But so does a great dress. And the best-dressed of the night was definitely Lake Bell in red BCBG which clearly stood out in the sea of Herve.
That rumor we spread about Mark Fast doing a line for Topshop? It's true. And it's in last week's Sunday Telegraph magazine which means it was true before we even said anything and we've had it in our lap since... Read More
Meet Blue Logan, if you haven't already. A couple of years ago a friend dragged the soft-spoken Brit to a show at London Fashion Week, Aquascutum he thinks, and he started to draw the models as they walked down the... Read More
