PPR is Changing its Name, Jennifer Aniston’s Rumored Wedding Dress Designer, and Is Selena Gomez Too Young for Harper’s Bazaar?

by

Selena Gomez is on the new issue of Harper’s Bazaar holding a giant flower as a rather impractical umbrella. But is Justin Bieber’s maybe-ex squeeze a lil’ too lil’ to cover the grown-up glossy? {Refinery29}

Margherita Missoni is preggers with her first bambino. {Telegraph}

Survey says! Nordstrom is the most beloved retail chain in all the land. {WWD}

Identity crisis? French luxury goods group PPR is reportedly changing its name to Kering, meaning ‘dry’ in Indonesian. Dry goods! No, like I totally get it! {Business of Fashion}

Alexander Wang Fall 2012: 90s Supermodels (Gisele! Shalom!) and a Glossy Sheen

Alexander Wang Fall 2012: 90s Supermodels (Gisele! Shalom!) and a Glossy Sheen

by

After hearing about the makeup look from pro Diane Kendal backstage at the Alexander Wang show yesterday, I was about to tweet: “Someday Alex Wang will put his girls in a strong red lip—but today isn’t the day.” Yep, same old grungy Wang girl. Ho hum. But then a colleague said to me, “Look, Gisele is over there.”

The day quickly went from ho-hum to holy shit. Gisele was walking in the Alexander Wang show! She kept press at arm’s length backstage, telling photogs and reporters (who obviously gathered around her chair like the fawning subjects we all are) that she wasn’t giving any sound bites today. I’m assuming she didn’t want to hear the word “football” at all, after her little outburst from last weekend. Instead we all watched as she flirted with Guido Palau while he did her hair in the usual limp Alex Wang way. After taking about a zillion pictures of her looking perfect without makeup, I wandered over to a different section.

Here Are All the Details We Could Glean About the Top Secret Tom Ford Show

by

Tom Ford held another one of his top secret, super exclusive presentations in London last night. He unveiled his spring 2012 collection to a small group of press and while we were not among them, we already have a pretty good idea of who was there and what the clothes looked like. Sexy, maximalist and ’90s Gucci-esque seem to have been the main themes.

Here’s what we’ve gathered from the likes of Cathy Horyn, Hamish Bowles, Rachel Zoe and more.

The Vibe:

By the time Anna Wintour, Anna Dello Russo, Carine Roitfeld, Glenda Bailey, Harrods and co had taken their seats (promptly at 6pm) the select presentation had become a three-row show.

Our 20 Favorite Images from the Self Service Online Archives
Fashion Is Fun

Our 20 Favorite Images from the Self Service Online Archives

by

Yesterday, Self Service, the hit French fashion magazine with an insider tilt, relaunched its website with full archives. The goal was to create a database of everyone that’s ever been in Self Service. It’s like an online encyclopedia filled with people who are really, really important in the fashion industry. (Seriously, there’s an index.)

Now you know I love a good online archive, so I spent yesterday afternoon scouring Self Service‘s to bring you the most iconic, weirdest, and captivating photos from the book’s 16 year history. While my computer’s hard drive is now 25% covered in images of Hannelore Knuts, I’ve managed to pull out 20 photos that are particularly noteworthy.

But don’t rely on me entirely. After checking out my edit, go to Self Service’s new site and find out for yourself.
