Once again, future talk show host André Leon Talley has succeeded in making our Monday infinitely more bearable with his weekly Vogue.com video series, Mondays With André.
This week’s guest? The inimitable Tom Ford, speaking, for the first time, about his new baby, as well as his first full-on runway show in years.
Miu Miu always packs a stellar front row. Yesterday Zoe Saldana, Renee Zellweger, Rebecca Hall, Lea Seydoux and January Jones were all there–all of them flawless, gorgeous embodiments of the brand.
January Jones caught our attention right away in those tiny silk shorts and that big blond Betty Draper-style bouffant.
As Mad Men devotees we had to ask–what’s in store for Betty this season?
Forget Kimye.
Paris fashion week front-row-newbie Frank Ocean was one of our favorite celebrities to spot this week. The Grammy winner hit up several shows, including Givenchy and Chanel, so when we spotted him at Valentino, we had to grab a moment with him to ask how his first Paris fashion week was going. (We also overheard him tell another reporter that he’d brought along his mom to all the shows. How adorable is that?)
What follows is a rather stumbling awkward interview, because, well, he was just so disarmingly nice and open. Not what you’d expect from a celebrity. Basically, he charmed our pants off. We were fans before but now we’re smitten.
When it comes to good quotables, André Leon Talley can give Karl Lagerfeld a run for his money. And now, with all the new projects ALT has in the works (like a late night TV talk show), he’s been talking a lot.
The Vogue contributing editor sat down with WWD for a chat about why he took his new Russian Numéro gig (hint: ka-ching!), his relationship with Anna Wintour, yet another new project he’s working on, and his no-holds-barred take on the recent Oscars red carpet.
Prepare to fall in love with Jennifer Lawrence all over again.
Kim and Kanye aren’t the only people whose first magazine shoot as a couple was unveiled today. Behold Jenna Lyons and Courtney Crangi looking adorable in V.
Yep, that happened.
Jennifer Lawrence, no stranger to awkward awards show stair moments, fell on her way to accept her Oscar for best actress. That’s probably every woman’s ultimate fear in that kind of situation, right? But Lawrence handled it with such charm and humility her fall made everyone fall that much more in love with her (not to mention she fell beautifully–I mean, look at that photo!). “You guys are just standing up ’cause you feel bad that I fell and that’s really embarrassing but thank you,” she said when she finally made it to the podium.
So, what happened exactly?
Marc Jacobs usually prefers a kilt or a sheer lacy dress for events, but he switched it up this season by wearing PJs for his runway finale walks. This did not go unnoticed by Vogue‘s Andre Leon Talley, himself a proponent of comfortable luxury.
A discussion between Talley and Jacobs on the awesomeness of pajamas follows which is… awesome.
Karen Walker’s new eyewear look book features Advanced Style ladies Ilona Royce Smithkin, Linda Rodin, Joyce Carpati, and Lyn Dell, and it’s pretty much the best campaign ever.
We sat down with Royce Smithkin and Rodin, who sat front row at Walker’s show yesterday, to get the scoop on how they became models, and what they thought of Walker’s latest collection.
This is absolutely the best gift we could have been given at the tail end of a long New York Fashion Week.
Snoop Lion on getting French tips: “It’s about being spooned and groomed, dipped and whipped, suited and booted, gooted and looted, scuttered and buttered.”

Peter: Snowstorms are so in right now, oh my god they’re so chic.
Harry: They’re hot.
More of this, this way…
