Fashion News Roundup: A Marilyn Monroe Photo Exhibition, A Kardashian Divorce SNL Spoof and Kanye West and Chanel Iman Aren’t Dating

Marilyn Monroe Photo Exhibition At Milk This Week Only: On November 10-12, Milk Studios is holding a 62-photo exhibition of Monroe that traces her transformation from coy child to bombshell. It includes iconic images as well as never-before-seen shots, such as a stunning shot of her in this backless Dior just six weeks before she died. Think of it as your My Week With Marilyn preview. {WWD subscription required}

Watch: SNL’s Hilarious Kardashian Wedding Spoof: This is the best thing, ever. SNL parodied the Kardashian-Humphries divorce, with Kristen Wiig as an attention-whore Kris Jenner and Andy Samberg as a caveman Kris Humphries. Go. Now. {Hulu}

Chanel Iman and Kanye Are NOT Dating: Iman told Us Weekly, “Rumors are rumors. Everyone’s going to have something to say,” claiming they’re “just friends.” Boo. That was a fun rumor while it lasted. {The Cut}

Hi Guys, I’m the New Girl in Charge
Fashion Is Fun

Hi Guys, I’m the New Girl in Charge

You all probably noticed that Lauren Sherman, my partner in crime and the lady who helmed this site has jumped ship for a glossier world. And while I’m still sad that she’s gone (it’s only been three days!) I could not be more excited about taking the reins here at Fashionista. I’ve been here a year now and it gets better everyday. We’ve got a great team in place with Cheryl stepping up to broaden her coverage and Dhani in the trenches and we love bringing you the news and our take on it as it breaks.

I so appreciate all of your support and feedback, and I hope you’ll tolerate my love for fashion at its funniest and cats. Lots of cats.

You Will Be Able to Buy Those Anna Sui Cat Hats for $205 Come Fall

Anna Sui‘s shows are always a lot of fun because the models smile and the clothes are bright and ’60s and happy. This year Sui’s fall show was extra whimsical because a few models wore these fantastical cat hats down the runway (I thought they looked more like mouse hats but I’ve since been overruled). I figured they were just a show piece, but when I passed by Anna Sui’s booth at the Coterie I noticed the cat hats on display. So yes, fashion cat lovers (of which I am one), the Anna Sui cat hats will actually be available at Anna Sui’s SoHo store and a few other locations (we hear Net-a-Porter is interested, too) for around $205. Don one next fashion week and you’re guaranteed to be immortalized on some street style blog.

Miu Miu: A Love/Hate Story

LOVED: –More side braids. Hooray!! –The sturdiness meets quirkiness of the shoes, especially these and these. –The fact that so many women will be embracing the pantsuit again. Those things were sexier than expected. HATED: –The cat situation. Even through Miuccia’s lens I’m struggling with this and I’ve heard from other non-cat people that I Read more →
