“Oprah just revealed the 3rd cover of the Dec issue and she is wearing custom made PG gown. Dreams do come true y’all. Thank you @Oprah” —Prabal Gurung’s Twitter. As if he wasn’t already on a roll the past couple weeks, now women across America will know his name. Congrats!!!

“Is there a Nobel Prize for handbags? Because I would like to nominate the PS1 bag.” —Lauren Santo Domingo’s Twitter.

“im [sic] wearing part of the titanic tonight. mcqueen will be amazing.” —Heidi Mount’s Twitter. Color us intrigued, as if we aren’t always by McQueen.

“And new-millennium Balmain has definitely caught the fashion moment, as well as the attention of a whole wide world of bloggers, Tweeters and cyberspace image makers. They see in Mr. Decarnin the vibe of the moment: love it, grab it, own it, have fun with it. MySpace is his space.” —Suzy Menkes in her interesting IHT article that cites Balmain and Christophe Decarnin getting twice the Tweets and Google results of the superior, in her opinion, Nicolas Ghesquière and Balenciaga.

In which we catch those of you, and those of us, who spent the weekend outside, away from a computer or on a phone-cation, up on the fashion Twitterverse.

1. “I don’t get it,” from @jess_stam. She’s new to the world of tweets, give her a warm welcome!

2. “A Lanvin ‘snow sprite’ cashmere elf hat. It kind of makes me feel like skipping,” from @bunnybisous who appears to have been stranded uptown in the rain.

3. “Got sandwiched between Vogue’s Sally Singer and Anna Wintour to my left and Michael Roberts and Suzy Menkes to the right,” from @bryanboy at Dolce & Gabbana. A better view of their reactions, here. Sally looks amused; Hamish looks dangerous.

4. “Is it possible to have fashion sensory overload? Tell me no. I have 10 more days and another city to go,” from @mrjoezee. Yes, yes there is sir.

5. “Spotted on the front row at Versace…..Janet Jackson,” from @dazedmagazine. She sure pops up in the strangest places.

Super Models! Paris gets all Comic-Con with their show packages. Iselin, Vlade, Hanne Gaby, and Iris will save the world from evil henchmen! {Fashionologie}

Panty Raid: Eric Wilson’s number three trend of NYFW, Spanx. Well, really briefs, outside the clothes. Linda Wells finds it “perfectly insane”. We’ll respectfully agree to disagree. {NY Times}

To Milan They Go: Apparently it’s sweltering, but Mr. Armani really brought the goods to kick things off. Think flouncy dresses and lots of flats. And then came the D&G cowgirls. Yee-haw! {Joe Zee’s Twitter}

Hair God: Bumble’s Jimmy Paul is often the person behind the runway’s coolest hairstyles. You’ve probably copied something he created more than once. Here’s how he spent NYFW. {Vogue Daily}

Keeping Score: Let the NYFW wrap-ups begin. First up, the Wall Street Journal’s scorecard. {WSJ}

Tweet, Tweet: Britt and I developed a pretty serious Twitter addiction over the past 10 days. We literally couldn’t stop ourselves and almost lost it when our phones died. She’s already in London, so you can keep up by following Fashionista_com. {Twitter}

Front Row Fabulous: I’ve been thinking about this outfit that Carine wore since I saw her walk into the tents that morning. Utter perfection. {WhoWhatWear}

Jak & Jil Meets Style: Tommy Ton is now shooting street style for Style.com. Yay! And Congrats! {Style}

McKinsey Watch 2009: The consultants have finished their reports at Condé and rumored info is starting to trickle out. Keith Kelly is reporting today that Allure, Teen Vogue, and Details have been spared, at least for now. They were thought to be in precarious spots. Dear Uncle Si, please don’t kill TV. We love it too much. {NY Post}

We like Betsey Johnson now, but we loved Betsey Johnson fifteen years ago, which is why we spent last night watching these vintage videos instead of True Blood.

Her team’s uploaded an insane archive, dating back to 1978 when Betsy debuted her namesake label and sent gyrating models down the runway in neon satin dresses with major side ponytails and shoulders I’ll call Balmain even though I’m aware they weren’t that back then.

You can catch Steven Tyler and Marc Jacobs walking her runway, as well as Pat Field, Bjork and of course, the famous ending cartwheel.

There are ten videos posted so far through the eighties and into the early nineties, and they’ll be adding more on a daily basis on Youtube, their Facebook page and via Twitter.

As we told you yesterday, Rachel Zoe’s first newsletter arrived today touting her first obsession, a Brian Atwood leopard “shootie”. Of course, she “DIES” over them. And while I’m not typically one for animal prints, it is a gorgeous shoe. It’s very RZ and we all know she and Brian are super tight, so no surprise on her pick of designer.

At the bottom of the newsletter, she also shows a Steve Madden shoe in a section called “Parallel Universe.” You would find said shoe on our site in “Adventures in Copyright.”

Obviously RZ has a wide range of fans, but we wonder how her fashion friends will feel about her promoting knock-offs of their creations. Just a little something to think about.

For this, the fifth edition of the YSL Manifesto, the brand has finally decided to take things online.

In preparation they’ve launched both a Facebook page and a Twitter account to increase their online social networking presence and prepare their fans for the launch of a ‘microsite’ on September 1st which will store archives of past manifestos, a manifesto blog monitor, links to their new online sites and eventually a downloadable copy of the manifesto.

But before you get your hands on the actual publication, you’ll have the chance to watch the behind the scenes video of Inez & Vinoodh’s shoot with Christy Turlington. And then finally, on September 12th, you can snag a copy of the manifesto mid-Fashion Week. Though honestly, we still haven’t figured out their favorite corners.

Joe Zee, star of The City and Creative Director of Elle, is in LA this week.

He hosted an event called “Hit the Road, Text Later” with Ciara as part of California’s campaign to stop texting while driving. (Which, after texting my way up and down the state of California while driving for a month I can attest is a major problem. I’m still amazed I never crashed.)

However, during this past week Joe tweeted from a text message that his car was playing office. Then he took this picture of a woman’s foot hanging out of a car, while in his own vehicle. Then he took this picture of traffic, from inside the tunnel in which he was stuck traffic. And then this one of a pretty posh Rolls Royce in which you can actually see Joe’s side mirror — all actually texted into Twitter.

Yes, this made us laugh out loud. Maybe he should stick to fashion parties since that’s a cause he actually believes in? But seriously, please don’t crash Joe! Fashion Week wouldn’t be the same without you.

Karl’s New Toy: Meet Baptiste Gianconi, Karl Lagerfeld’s newest muse/boy toy/model friend/Sebastian. He’s cute! Hope the other boys play nice. {Perez}

Wowsers: Poor Mischa. Though she’s the first person we’ve ever heard actually say, “Chlo-ay.” {HandbagTV}

Interns Away: The Moment, The New York Times’ T Magazine’s style blog, needs fall interns. Wish we could do it. {TheMoment}

Style Me Nice: While in LA, I developed some major girl crushes. Nicole Chavez’s stylist picks for WhoWhatWear combine two, or three, of them. {WWW}

Vivienne Westwood’s quite the quote-worthy designer. She had some pretty good thoughts to share recently on Jonathan Ross’ talk show, and The Guardian has put together a collection reminding us that she’s always been quippy.

She maintained in 1991 that “Fashion is about eventually becoming naked” and to back that claim up, explained her ripped stockings in 1994 by saying, “I was taken on the bed by Andreas this morning. Don’t you love this look?”

Our society loves a good quote, always has. Even if you roll your eyes over inspirational quotes, we imagine you have a few favorite fashion-related ones logged away.

“Regretting the YSL sequin jacket I bought as the one in the Micheal Jackson costume at Abracadabra is not that bad and only $19.99.” — The LSD tweets.

We started hearing word from the Jean Paul Gaultier show earlier today via Tweets from lucky attendees. Old Hollywood was the theme and seating was even named after the major studios.

And may we add a quick thank you to the newest editor addition to Twitterverse, Joe Zee. The man is on it with the rapid details and pictures.

(He’s tweeting from Valentino as we write.)

When he wrote about crocodile overalls paired with a sable coat, we knew this was the look we had to see stat.

Picture This: There’s no video yet from Vanessa Bruno’s short film, just stills. But we’ll take Lou Doillon any way we can get her. {Fashionologie}

And They’re Off: Recession be damned, there will always be couture. Even if Anna isn’t there to watch it happen. {FWD}

With One Notable Exception: A “restructuring” plan has effectively wiped out most of the jobs at Christian Lacroix. {WWD}

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.

Not Tweeting: Coco Rocha doesn’t do the Twitter thing. So if you think you’re following her every move, right down to a supposed internship at Vogue, you’re sorely mistaken. {Oh So Coco}

Bare Becks: Mr. Posh Spice unveiled his latest undies ad for Emporio Armani in London yesterday. This is one campaign we will never, ever tire of. {Vogue UK}

Don’t Be Koi: A new “international ambassador” arrives in New York today. It’s a giant fish. Really. {Elle}

BFFs: Marc and Anna Sui chat about tats, Garren and the Motor City. {Style}

Very Shady People: Thursday Styles gets their investigative journalism on…about round sunglasses. {NY Times}

Talking Cats: Mad-libs with Catherine Holstein. She loves cut-offs as much as we do, all things purple, dogs and shoes. {Glamour}

Twittered: In case you missed it, here’s a tweet by tweet account of Anna Wintour’s 92Y talk last night. It started with Peta and ended with Andre’s blogging. {NYMag}

Dig Deep: Ali from The City gets questioned. She really likes Splenda and scented candles and ended up on the show after Adam was cast. {Nylon}

Suzy Says: Suzy Menkes took a trip to SF. Alas, she doesn’t have time for tweets. {FabSugar}

There’ve been tweets that London’s i-D Magazine is dead.

From Derek Blasberg: Gossip at Chanel lunch in Venice: did London fashion rag i-D just close? Or did it just get really, really smaller? Anybody know for sure?

He’s in Venice for Chanel resort surrounded by people who know such things.

But then there are tweets that say it’s just shrinking.

From COACD: ID MAGAZINE to cut its issue….will publish 6 times a year….Terry&Tricia Jones/ publishers.

But we imagine its publishers know such things, too. And while we want to weep over the possible loss of the magazine’s brilliant blinking covers and its consistent devotion to models, we’ll take solace in the fact that six issues a year are better than none.

And now we’ll go buy a handful of copies just in case they need a bit of support to stay afloat.
