Ever since Lauren Weisberger wrote The Devil Wears Prada, there’s been an influx of fashion-related books/movies/tv shows liquifying our taste buds.

So forgive us for having totally missed that a book called Fashionistas came out three years ago, about a “young designer working at a design firm who plots to take down her ruthless boss by inventing a fictitious must-have designer.”

So why are we thinking about this today? Because Paramount Pictures is turning the novelette into a movie, and it looks like they’re keeping the original name, Fashionistas.

This is right on the heels of the realization that there will now be three tv shows all about fashion this upcoming Fall season (Stylista, The Stylist - in which Erin Wasson may be starring - The Rachel Zoe Project, and way more if you continue to count the likes of Project Runway, ANTM and The Hills).

No word on who’s set to star (our bet goes to Rachel Bilson), but they at least have the director signed up - Donald Petrie. His previous works include Mystic Pizza, Miss Congeniality, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days and Just My Luck.

You know the summer’s near its end when the Fall rumors are about the prime time lineup, too -

We hear MTV’s sending out pitches to major fashion companies about their newest show, The Stylist.

Apparently, it follows eight wannabe stylists in a “challenge type show” - and the winner gets a contract with Margaret Maldonado Agency, Rachel Zoe’s old backer, “the most powerful stylist agency in Hollywood.”

The show goes into production soon - the pitches are all about Spring ‘09 product placement, so we expect it to debut well after Stylista’s September 3rd premiere.

So - that’s Gossip Girl, Stylista, The Stylist, and the return of Project Runway.

Should TiVo do a designer collaboration? Maybe they could even do a show about it…
