We’ve anticipated the launch of two websites this week - one came crashing in and the other’s quietly arrived.

Interior designer Ryan Korban celebrated the debut of RyanKorban.com at the Soho Grand last night with a crush of familiar faces including hosts Alexander Wang, Natasha Poly and Victoria Traina. Korban’s best known for designing Alex’s studio, Tribeca’s Edon Manor and after last night, for gathering more models in one place - Iris, Daiane, Stam, Rose Cordero, Vanessa Traina (semi-model?), Angela Lindvall, Erin Wasson, Natasha - than we’ve seen since fashion week. You can’t actually buy anything on his site, except maybe his services, but just glancing at his portfolio will certainly make you rip your apartment apart in disgust and buy lots of other things. Consider yourself warned.

You can, however, buy plenty from AllSaints.com. The British brand’s been quietly creeping stateside this fall. Their Bloomingdale’s concession launched in August and they have tentative plans to inhabit part of the empty Virgin space in Union Square. But they’ve finally launched an online site for the US full of perfectly rock n’ roll leather, slouchy sweaters and studded accessories. As for their dresses, one of their head designers came from Vivienne Westwood. So again, consider yourself warned.

Sneak A Peek: Here’s a sneak preview of the Natasha Poly-centric Muse, hitting New York’s news stands on September 10th. It features Craig McDean, Riccardo Tisci, Jeff Koons and Terry Richardson. If ever there was a time to try to replicate those lips, it’s tonight’s Paper party. {Models}

Jeepers Creepers: Yes, all fashion girls swoon for Yigal Azrouel. He’s gorgeous, makes brilliant clothes and is the only straight man for miles. But this woman, who told the Post she likes to try on clothes in his store just to be naked in the same room as him, is far too enthusiastic about the whole thing. {NYPost}

PughHoo!: Gareth’s coming to New York. The Brit will show his full collection in Paris - no word yet on whether he’s reverting back to runways or sticking to last season’s video format - but before that he’ll swing by Milk Studios and offer a peek of his SS10 collection this Saturday night. {Style}

Do you favor clothes of the rock n’ roll variety and think Poly when we say Natasha?

Then maybe you should intern for Gucci. Their PR team could use your help for fall working with men’s and women’s clothes and accessories. You’ll maintain the showroom, per usual, and assist with sample trafficking and inventory as well as celeb gifting, not to mention your fare share of admin duties, obviously.

You should probably be interested in fashion PR, duh, and it’d be nice if you have some fashion experience. If not, you should be professional, hard working, dedicated and enthusiastic about any and all duties. Hopefully you can work at least three days a week from now through December.

Must be in it for the school credit, too. Email Pintern@us.gucci.com.

It’s been a long time coming, but we of the weak eyes are finally getting our due.

It started on the runway: Natasha Poly looked sexy with her chignon and frames walking Michael Kors for Fall 08, and then Charles Anastase accented his sweet but sexy Spring 09 collection with black glasses.

Now they’ve gained real momentum. Terry Richardson (whose big frames we love) hilariously chronicled Lily Donaldson’s visit to the eye doctor (a process that ends in the always uncomfortable eye drops that we are all too familiar with) for US Vogue and the new Dolce & Gabbana and D&G ads include shots of bespectacled models.

Apart from advertisements for their actual glasses collections, this is the first we can remember them being used so very prominently in fashion advertisements. And boy, did pictures of Justin in those black frames at the CFDAs get our hearts pumping.

There are some serious fashion idols that rocked frames (Yves Saint Laurent and Iris Apfel come to mind) but now glasses have become a versatile accessory, and even our friends with 20/20 are joining in.

Those of us who suffered through elementary, middle and high school embarrassment eventually coming to self-acceptance and love of our glasses, felt a little bitter at first towards those who just threw on the frames now that it was cool. But ultimately, we feel rather proud that glasses are being embraced.

The latest issue of WWWWD’s out today and it, together with lots and lots of coffee, is helping to cure our hangover.

The Intellectual Issue covers Natasha Poly’s catastrophic runway fall, one which left her with telepathic powers, and researches NASA’s interest in Miuccia Prada’s “obnoxious genius.”

We actually laughed out loud at their sartorial timeline: Jesus invented Birkenstocks in 1 A.D. and in 2004, Gabriel Aubry, “first known human with IQ of 23 able to digest food without use of machines, claims Earth is flat on the set of a Versace shoot.”

But Agyness Deyn’s poem, a sort of ode to the Beatrice Inn in which she wonders, “Where shall drink with Ashley and MK / Weep I shall all night and all day,” might be the most random bit.

Jacquetta Wheeler’s the new Gucci girl.

Sort of, she was the face of Tom Ford Gucci ten years ago, but the British-born, New York-living model’s been in campaigns more Lord & Taylor and Banana Republic these past couple of years. Her most recent high fashion campaign was Ralph Lauren in 2005, but Frida Giannini got swept up in London’s energy while in town to re-open Gucci’s Sloane Street store and wanted a real life English girl for her Fall 09 campaign.

Jacquetta joins the more traditional Gucci girls Natasha Poly and Freja, as well as Raquel Zimmermann who at this point is a given for pretty much every campaign.

Frida really wanted to capture the London spirit so Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin are shooting the campaign in a studio in North London.

Blonde, Blue-eyed Bores: Vogue labeled Anna Maria Jagodzinska “Natasha Poly” in their backstage video, even though they’re both on the cover of the latest issue and they don’t actually look too much alike. {Style.com}

What About Brad?: Rachel Zoe’s turned to Facebook to ask for help to keep her show alive. {New York Mag}

Condé Keeps Cutting: Editorial Assistants at Condé Nast are filling in for all those receptionists laid off last week. It’s safe to assume this isn’t what they signed up for. {FWD}

Mouse Ears: Giles, Luella, Henry & Daisy broke out their bedazzlers to update Mickey’s classic ears. They’re on display in London, on sale for charity May 4th. {Refinery 29}

Not Quite Fashion: But we’re obsessed with this video and you will be, too. It made us forgive her for the leggings. {Funny Or Die}

I am a big fan of short.

Come Spring/Summer, my dresses/skirts/shorts are as short as they can possibly be without causing a scandal. But even I’m thinking twice about the recent crop of pants-less pants.

Stella’s Spring 09 runway kicked off the trend (actually, Vlada did at SS08 McQueen). Her little suits and rompers are my dream version of office-wear (if my legs looked anything like Natasha Poly’s). Then, the pink and orange Marc by Marc romper sold out on Net-a-Porter within a day, even though it doesn’t have legs - just elastic bands and about a half-inch inseam. And last weekend, I seriously contemplated trying on these hot-pants at Urban, in navy blue, until I realized I’d really started to lose it. I have lacy boy shorts that cover more of my bottom.

— Sidenote: The office thinks I should note that I did once wear pink sequin hotpants in public for an entire night. But it was for a roller skating party and therefore I deem it irrelevant. —

But there’s a pretty consistent fashion trickle down. Starts with the runways - Stella, McQueen, Wang. Then hits the celebrities - Lady Gaga and Katie Perry ditched their trousers long ago. Then the high street - Urban, Topshop. And in no time at all, everyone from Reese Witherspoon to Williamsburg residents are running errands with their ass hanging out.

But will you?

Michael Kors is thinking neon this season.

The man’s added an edge to his trenches and sheaths. He stuck Natasha Poly in leather and more leather, threw Raquel into a sleeveless camel trench with a perfect fur collar, Frankie Rayder (!) wore sequins, Coco did tweeds, Arlenis wore a Sherlock Holmes trench, Bruna got to wear a hot pink fur coat and hat, Anja slipped by in an asymettrical chartreuse shift, Carmen Kass wore more fur than I’ve ever seen and it was almost all accessorized with perfectly chunky chain necklaces.

The clothes were particularly quiet after spring’s stripes and spots - even the neon pieces were tailored and conservative.

Front row seating was a bit mixed up - the Vogue-ttes usually get to sit by the door for a quick exit but this time Anna & Co. made their way further down the runway, across from Mario Testino, while Heidi Klum, Molly Sims and Jane Krakowski held court by the pit.

And that was about the freshest thing happening at the tents this morning. Off to Marchesa!

Warning: I didn’t have time to get coffee pre-Michael Kors, so please excuse the blurry pictures, they’re a result of my blurry head.

Before I tell you about Trovata, let me tell you about Natasha Poly.

She’s sitting about ten feet away at this particular Starbucks with the biggest Zac Posen shopping bag I’ve ever seen which means a) she’s wearing Zac to the Interview party tonight or b) the dress she’s wearing in his show is so insane he’s making her practice walking in it.

Ok, back to Trovata.

The show started at 5 and they made us wait in the lobby until a whopping 5:03 after a couple Voguettes announced their place of employment punctuated by a “We’re leaving if you don’t let us in now.”

So of course we all went in and stood around the plastic covered runway, (standing by a runway is kind of unusual), to watch the nautical models prance. The girls wore patent stilettos, mostly YSL tributes, while the boys wore Keds dipped in paint - which made for pretty rainbow footsteps down the white canvas runway.

The clothes begged for a yacht. There were sheer men’s shirts worn as dresses, knotted rope accessories, a navy-knit bare-backed romper, almost all of it in shades of blue and white. It ended with Biz Markie’s “Just a Friend” but really, we wanted to be more than just friends with the Trovata boys after seeing this collection.

We wanted to be best friends so they’d give us everything.

Oh, and if you were worried about those particular Voguettes having to stand, (gasp!), don’t worry, a tree trunk shaped bench was pulled up just for them.

You may have noticed that Whole Foods is (once again) crammed with lithe spirits named Irina, Anabela, and Kinga.

There’s a reason for that and it’s simple: Campaign season is officially here!

If you don’t have time to camp out at Milk Studios all day to watch the girls, here’s a little cheat sheet of what’s happening so far:

Fanorexics will be psyched to hear that Lily Donaldson is now Gucci’s main girl. She’s pairing up with a few backup dancers - including Abbey Lee, the Aussie upstart who got the Gucci exclusive in Milan - for their next big campaign, which is something of a Gypsy-Chic explosion.

But what happened to Gucci’s main face, Natasha Poly?

Funny you should ask - she’s taking the reigns at the Dolce & Gabbana campaign, which Lily D. ruled last season with Gemma and Jessica Stam. Now it’s Natasha, plus Kasia Strauss and maybe Jessica Stam again as the fearsome threesome.

And remember the cute new blonde, Agnete? She’s bumping Kate Bosworth out of her CK Jeans billboard this Fall. Steven Meisel is shooting the full campaign this week, but he’s got a little bit of trouble: They’re trying to book 8 boys and about 16 girls for the ads, but so many girls aren’t in town that the number might have to go down.

Gucci was keen enough to release a behind-the-scenes video of their perfume commercial on YouTube, and it confirms a few things for us:

1. Gucci is really trying to evoke to decadent, industrial Halston spirit of the ’70s.

2. Freja looks about ten years younger with long hair, which is both good and bad.

3. Gucci creative director Frida Giannini is maybe the cutest designer we’ve ever seen.

4. The Gucci by Gucci perfume has been treated a little like a borrowed Louvre artifact - note how it’s only handled on set by white-gloved art directors, who look a little bit like butlers when polishing the bottle.

5. Director David Lynch is more obsessed with glitter than Heatherette during Fashion Week. A surprising revelation indeed.

I’d like to introduce you to some old friends.

I’ve known them for a while, but I still like to go visit them from time to time. They all live together in Soho, and they’re really chic. They only hang out with designers. They used to be on the runway but they haven’t been getting out much lately.

They’re the clothes on the basement sale rack at Kirna Zabete, the pioneering Soho boutique.

Let’s meet them:

There’s the Behnaz Sarafpour dress Natasha Poly wore down the runway in the Spring 2006 collection. Originally, $1645. Now: $412.

The dress Isabeli Fontana wore in the Spring 2005 Behnaz show: originally $1255, now $315.

The Lanvin tulle blouse from Fall 2005 that Ann Catherine Lacroix wore on the runway, marked down from $1665 to $166.

The yellow and white Nina Ricci gown, $5265 to $1317.

And my favorite twins:

The pumpkin colored silk bias cut dresses from Rodarte’s first collection (Spring 2006). Once, $1380, now $345.

There are others (the gaggle of Rick Owens sweaters, the Zac Posen family), but the pieces listed above have the most seniority and are thus closest to my heart. They’re so familiar. They’re always there… like for the last two years.

Why? Keep reading.
