Comic-Con International wrapped yesterday, and since Hollywood keeps making blockbuster movies based on comics, and sequels based on those comics, and getting A-list stars to star in said movies, the fashion at Comic-Con has gotten pretty good.

We noticed a few months ago that Kanye West seemed to be having a major influence on girlfrien’ Kim Kardashian’s kloset–but we didn’t know just exactly how much his input mattered. UNTIL NOW. A clip from last night’s riveting episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians saw poor Kimmy getting a little flustered over her Read more →
Last night’s Costume Institute Gala may have been filled almost exclusively with famous rich people in formalwear, but we think they all brought something special to the table.

Kate Upton Dougied her way to viral fame and today, she’s put us all in a trance Cat Daddying in an itsy bitsy bikini for Terry TV. *Sigh* But she isn’t the only fashion player who likes to shake her rump.

While fashion and porn have always been sometimes-strange bedfellows, there’s nary a nip-slip in sight from Grey (sorry, dudes).

Elizabeth and James Make Foray Into Home Goods: Or at least, that’s what their new Clara dress looks like. The barely-there mint green dress looks suspiciously like a bath towel. The dress, which retails for $395, also comes with straps for those ladies feeling a bit more modest. {Refinery29}

Twenty-five percent of the hand-drawn t-shirt’s proceeds will benefit the Red Cross in Japan, which is still struggling to cope with the aftermath of last year’s massively destructive tsunami.

Brad Goreski Says Rachel Zoe Doesn’t Send Thank You Cards: Our beloved Brad may have his own show now, but he still doesn’t seem to have the Rachel Zoe stamp of approval.
