Fashion News Roundup: Whitney Port Wants Charity, Gwyneth Paltrow Inspired Hugo Boss, and Aggy Deyn Stars in Doc Martens Film
Whitney Port, author/fashion designer/reality star, is looking for a little help from the internet to pay for her show at fashion week. Donating to her includes some interesting rewards like ‘thank you’ tweets. The only problem–well besides the fact that a fashion show ain’t no charity?

Last Night’s Parties: Maripol Celebrates Her Legacy, Chloe Sevigny Celebrates Hugo Boss
One of the people Lady Gaga just name checked as a seminal “author in the library of pop culture” hosted a book signing last night. No, it wasn’t Prince, Cindy Crawford, Marilyn Monroe, or Francis Bacon (Gaga’s words, not ours).
It was Maripol, stylist to ’80s statement-makers Debbie Harry, Grace Jones, Cher, and Madonna. Steven Meisel may have shot that iconic Like A Virgin album cover, but Maripol’s the one who slipped Madonna into the rubber bracelets and crucifix jewelry that sparked a trillion copycats. So, yah, we’d say Gaga gushing over Maripol’s cultural legacy is pretty on point.
While Maripol certainly had a heavy hand in fashion history, the woman’s still very much relevant today. Last year, she designed neon t-shirts and rubber jewelry for Marc by Marc; last night, she continued her latest moment in the sun (or torrential downpour, as luck would have it) with a jam-packed signing of her Little Red Riding Hood.

Streetwalker: Matching Structures
Olya, Mom & Art Publisher Got Her: At the Guggenheim’s Hugo Boss Prize 2008 party. Stalked Her: Actually it was more like shimmied up beside her while dancing. Shot Her: Because she was rocking out in a Giambittista Valli dress, fishnets, and perfect patent pumps with a drink in hand on the sloping Guggenheim floors Read more →

Speaking of Snejana…
We hear the spindly babe is the new face of Hugo Boss for Fall ’08. That’s good news for her, because that campaign pays way too much. It’s also interesting because it means S.O. will be taking over for Irina Lazareanu, whose bohemian lifestyle and rocker sensibilities were transformative to the industry over the past Read more →
