Domino, which folded in 2009, once topped a list of most missed magazines (Sassy would’ve topped our list but we get it, people like their home decor). Occasionally magazines do get resurrected, so those of you who hoped that would be the case for this recession victim will be pleased to hear you could be reading Domino again as soon as April.

2011 did not end on a good note for magazines. According to Audit Bureau of Circulations, the industry was down an average of 10 percent, WWD is reporting.
And that’s not even the worst of it. Some fashion titles fell much harder.

Last season, Prada‘s spring bananas and bright colors beat out all other big labels to be featured on the most magazine covers with 77, as we counted it. Score one for their PR department. Gucci and Dolce & Gabbana trailed in second and third, but now with a new season and thousands of new covers, Prada has officially been dethroned.

This should make your Monday a little better. To celebrate the relaunch of Vogue.fr, Vogue Paris’ website (it looks a lot cleaner and more like a Tumblr site now), EIC Emmanuelle Alt, French TV personality Mademoiselle Agnès, and models Anja Rubik, Karmen Pedaru, Jasmine Tookes and Kendra Spears got together to perform Wham! “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go,” a song Alt has previously revealed to be one of her favorites.

Yes, most people watched the Super Bowl last night. And so did we, if only to see the David Beckham for H&M commercial on a bigger screen (mesmerizing) and Madonna’s performace (lots of Givenchy). But after half time, we switched over to CBS to watch Morley Safer interview Anna Wintour on 60 Minutes. After all, she’s fashion’s MVP/QB, right?
Wintour was one of “Three Remarkable Women” featured in last night’s edition (Dolly Parton and Meryl Streep were the other two), and she handled herself admirably against Safer’s sometimes obnoxious line of questioning. Read more »
Victoria Beckham sure is making the indie fashion magazine cover rounds lately. Just a week after her March Numéro Tokyo cover was revealed, here she is wearing her own line on the cover of iD‘s “Whatever The Weather Issue.” And she looks ah-mazing. Read more »

We’ve already seen a sneak preview of Rachel Zoe as a vampire and Kate Moss and Lara Stone as flowery cats, but now we know who covers Love issue 7: one of the original supers, Linda Evangelista. Shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, and styled by Katie Grand, the pics were inspired by punk artist Jamie Reid. The cover proclaims “After Taste: Celebrating the end of elegance with Linda Evangelista,” but we’d argue that she looks pretty elegant anyway, smeared lipstick and all. Read more »
Glamour’s got a flashy new hire to go along with their new look (the mag just revealed a redesign for the important March spring fashion issue). Louise Roe has been named Fashion Editor at Large, just in time for fashion week. You might remember her as the cheery Brit who “stole” Olivia Palermo’s “job” at Elle on The City, or more recently, as the host of the awesomely feel-good yet under-the-radar makeover show Plain Jane on the CW.
“Anne Christensen and I are so excited to have Louise on board just as we’re rolling out a new kind of Glamour,” Cindi Leive said of the hire. “Louise is both aspirational It-girl and accessible chic, which exactly sums up what we’re into at Glamour.”
Roe, 29, is obviously psyched.

While just about every non-fashion blog post about Lana del Rey in the past month suggests a backlash; the singer, whose debut album came out Tuesday, continues to ascend the fashion ranks. Case in point: here she is on the cover of British Vogue wearing Louis Vuitton. And not just any issue. She covers March, spring’s equivalent to the September issue. And perhaps fashion’s equivalent to her SNL performance, which many critics say she did too soon. Luckily, she doesn’t have to sing on a magazine cover. Read more »
In news that is really only surprising because it’s never happened before, a major fashion magazine is getting sued by one of its former interns.
According to the New York Times, Xuedan Wang interned at Harper’s Bazaar from August 2010 through December 2011 for 40-55 hours per week and today filed a lawsuit against Hearst (the fashion glossy’s publisher) accusing them of violating state and federal wage and hour laws by not paying her when she was doing the work of a paid employee.

Yesterday shots of Gwyneth Paltrow’s cover for the newly designed Harper’s Bazaar leaked, and today the full spread is available, complete with a meaty interview. Terry Richardson lensed the whole editorial, which features Paltrow wearing revealing black dresses against Richardson’s signature stark white background. In addition to the racy Anthony Vaccarello she dons on the subscriber cover, she wears Lanvin, Givenchy, Versace, Alexander McQueen, and Blumarine.
People seem to either love or hate Gwyneth Paltrow–the accompanying interview is a good illustration of why. Paltrow is pretty unfiltered. Read the highlights here and make your own assessment. It starts with writer Justine Picardie noting that Paltrow would “fall naturally into yoga stretches during the course of the conversation.” We also learn that Goop is being relaunched and expanded, and that she’s working on a second cookbook, which will feature “really delicious health food.” Click through for highlights and head over to Harper’s Bazaar for the full story: Read more »
Vanity Fair’s 2012 Hollywood issue is here, and it’s jam-packed with stylish and talented actresses. This is the first-ever VF Hollywood cover that Mario Testino’s shot, and the three page fold-out cover features Rooney Mara, Jennifer Lawrence, Jessica Chastain, Mia Wasikowska, Elizabeth Olsen, Adepero Oduye, Shailene Woodley, Paula Patton, Felicity Jones, Lily Collins and Brit Marling. VF‘s fashion director, Jessica Diehl, styled the ladies in an Art Deco/Jazz Age fantasy, and the results are pretty spectacular. We vote Shailene Woodley (whose look at the SAG’s landed her on a lot of “worst dressed” lists) as most improved, and Rooney Mara as “best flapper bob.” The icy, satiny pastels and dramatic makeup looks just scream Hollywood glamor. Sorry Cathy Horyn, until the Great Gatsby comes out next December it looks like we’re just going to keep getting hit over the head with the ’20s. Read more »
