Rebecca Minkoff Fall 2013: Ground Control to Major Minkoff
Much like last season’s surprise Lochte lockdown, the crowd at Rebecca Minkoff’s Fall 2013 show seemed just as enthralled by the celeb-filled front row as it was the clothes themselves.

Adding insult to injury, Bogart’s son asserts the trench in the photo was probably from rival brand Aquascutum. {Telegraph} Kate Middleton went to a wedding this weekend, and in Read more →

Jessica Simpson on Her New Design Endeavors (Baby and Maternity Coming Soon), ‘Sexy Girls,’ and the Gender of her Baby
Yesterday the Simpson sisters–Ashlee and Jessica–threw a little soiree to celebrate their first-ever design collab: A line of clothes for tween girls. The line is for ages 7-16, and this demographic made up most of the crowd at the party at Dylan’s Candy Bar.
I was very jealous of these girls for two reasons: First, they got to decorate and bedazzle jeans and shoes. Second, they got to eat all the candy and mini grilled cheese sandwiches they wanted, while I just stared longingly–wrong week to start a juice cleanse.
Ashlee was there with her adorable son, the curly-haired towhead Bronx; Jessica worked the crowd signing autographs and taking pictures with mini-fans while attentive babydaddy Eric Johnson stayed close by. We waited very patiently to grab a few words with the mom-to-be, who was wearing towering heels and a short leopard print dress.( We overheard her telling several people that flats hurt her feet and she’ll wear her heels as long as possible.) When we finally got to her, she dished to us about working with Ashlee, her new design projects, and finding out the sex of her baby:

Charlotte Ronson On Twin Shopping Telepathy and Why JCPenney is a Perfect Partner
LOS ANGELES–Last night, designer Charlotte Ronson hosted a dinner, sponsored by Belvedere Vodka, for her west coast posse (sis Samantha, mom Ann Dexter-Jones and stepdad Mick Jones, Nicky Hilton, Ashlee Simpson and husband Pete Wentz, Ione Skye and Mindy Kaling included) while her hometown of NYC was hit with a snowstorm. Guests gathered around communal tables at Hollywood hotspot Eveleigh (an eatery that shares its Aussie owners with NYC’s Kingswood) and munched on calamari, butter lettuce salad and braised beef among other dishes, while Charlotte made the rounds.
Despite being in the middle of designing both her namesake collection (Fall 2011) and diffusion line “I Heart Ronson” for JCPenney, the rock ‘n roll scion seemed visibly relaxed. The collaboration with JC Penney’s, she pointed out, is in fact the least of her worries. “It’s really fun because they know their customer so well. You get to really design into it. We do our few pieces, and it’s fun that the line is accessible and affordable. With them you just focus on the design. We do the full techpack but they do all of the production. So, I get to focus on the creative, which is so rare. It’s the perfect partnership.”
And how does it feel to have her name exposed to such a wide, mass market audience?

Apparently it’s a line of t-shirts with pictures “inspired by her sense of style, her personality and her album artwork.” Britt: Ew, I’m picturing Jessica strutting Read more →

Gareth Pugh on Ashlee Simpson
We knew Ashlee Simpson made the rounds last Fashion Week, but we didn’t know she’s as fashionably educated as she (or her stylist) seems to be. In her newest video, Outta My Head, you can see the pop starlet shaking it in what looks like a giant steel birdcage, wearing one of our favorite Gareth Read more →
