Fashion News Roundup: Karlie Kloss Covers Harper’s Bazaar Australia, OliviaPalermo.com Coming Soon and Another Olsen Bag Line

Kristen Cavallari Shot A Wedding Spread And Then Ended Her Engagement: The Hills star shot this Life&Style wedding spread and then broke off her engagement with Jay Cutler two days after the photos were released (presumably not because of said photoshoot). The pictures are gorgeous but that’s probably no consolation; bet she’s having a really not fun Sex and the City movie moment right about now. {MTV Style}

Karlie Kloss Covers September Harper’s Bazaar Australia: Excuse my Tyra phrasing, but this is FIERCE. Victor Demarchelier captured Kloss’ signature stare head-on. I feel she’s boring into my soul. I like it. {Fashion Gone Rogue}

Candice Swanepoel and Kristen Cavallari Celebrate the Launch of “Fantasies,” the Newest Scent from Victoria’s Secret

After spending the afternoon greeting fans and posing for pictures at the Victoria’s Secret store at the Grove, Candice Swanepoel hosted a small, private dinner party on the garden terrace of the Chateau Marmont. Clad in a sequined black dress, Swanepoel looked every bit the old Hollywood glamour girl as she unveiled the latest fragrance and body care collection, Fantasies, at the historic L.A. hotel.

Kristin Cavallari Walks Miami Swim Week in a Vodka-Inspired Swimsuit Made of Glass Shards

It’s Miami Swim Week! Also, Kristin Cavallari is apparently still relevant–or at least Diesel thinks so. They chose the former Hills star to walk in a glass swimsuit at their swim runway show at The Raleigh yesterday. It’s a blue one-shoulder cut-out one piece accented with shards of glass. What was the inspiration, you must be wondering?

Malandrino’s Macramé Causes a Ruckus at Lincoln Center

Malandrino’s Macramé Causes a Ruckus at Lincoln Center

The prize for most stunning presentation venue this season must be awarded to Catherine Malandrino. Despite an ominous looking sky, she perched her models outside on pedestals surrounding the Paul Milstein Pool, just north of the main tents at Lincoln Center. The presentation was fenced off, but approximately a zillion gawkers swarmed through the area trying to get a peek at some fashion. Or models. Or celebs. There were a lot of all these things.

Hamish Bowles, in a trench coat stamped with images of giant eyes, strolled around the pool. Kelly Rutherford and (I think) Jessica Szohr ran around taking silly pictures with the models, who didn’t seem that amused. Two off duty models in the audience commented, “The girls look really cold standing up there. I hate presentations.” Kristin Cavallari was fending off giggling girls snapping iPhone photos.

Jill Stuart’s Clothes Stand Up to Attention-Hoarding Celebs

Season after season, Jill Stuart peppers her front row with press-garnering celebs. While it’s usually a smart move, at Saturday’s show, Stuart’s grocery list of reality stars vied for attention not just with each other, but also with her clothes.

Not so discreet hand-holding (Kourtney Kardashian & Scott Disick) and even less discreet in-seat dancing (Brad Goreski–but hey, the man’s got moves) piqued photographer’s interest even after the lights went down, turning some cameras away from Stuart’s clothes and instead towards the people who court them.

But unlike the celebs, the clothes showed restraint, and at times even austerity. (High-waisted, knee-skimming shorts come to mind, as does a clean navy cape that seemed more Jil Sander than Jill Stuart).
