Barneys Fetes Rag & Bone’s New Purse With a Little Help From Linda Evangelista and Julianne Moore

Unless you were under any illusions otherwise (we doubt you were): Barneys really, really knows how to throw a good party.

So you can imagine our excitement when the department store invited us to dinner and drinks at the NoMad Hotel’s rooftop to celebrate Rag & Bone‘s latest bag this past Monday–a much-needed respite from NYFW’s crazy schedule.

Everything You Wanted to Know About Carine Roitfeld’s New Magazine, Plus a Look at Kate Upton on the Cover

The launch of Carine Roitfeld’s new magazine, CR Fashion Book, is mere days away (it hits newsstands on September 13), and in addition to all the teasers and previews we’ve gotten, today brings two new meaty Carine interviews, complete with new peeks at the cover and editorials. We’re starting to wonder…have we seen the whole mag at this point? No matter. We like what we see.

From models getting peed on to Carine’s supposed beef with Conde Nast (and being banned from using their photogs) here’s everything we know about CR without having ever actually laid eyes on it.

From Best Dressed to Best Ass, We Present Our Fashion Prom Met Ball Superlatives

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. While awards shows like the Oscars tend to elicit a stream of boring, predictable people and ensembles, the Met Ball brings out unexpected pairings, bold gowns and Read more →

The Best Photobombs From the 2012 Met Gala

Last night’s Met Gala offered plenty of ultra-glam shots–but thanks to the crowded red carpet it also gave us some excellent and hilarious photobombs.

And, as everyone knows, as fun as it is to see your favorite celebrities looking all poised and fancy, posing for the cameras, it’s even more fun to see them looking slightly disheveled and confused in the background.

So without further ado, click through to see the best photobombs of the night, from Amy Poehler‘s awesome mischievous grin, to Donatella Versace‘s poker face.

Linda Evangelista and Francois-Henri Pinault Settle Out of Court for Undisclosed Sum

Well, that was fast. After only a few days in court, Linda Evangelista and her baby daddy Francois-Henri Pinault have reached an out of court settlement in their child support battle, the New York Post is reporting.

Evangelista shocked pretty much everyone last week when it was reported that the supermodel was asking for an astronomical $46,000 a month in child support payments, saying that her son Augie needed round the clock nannies, armed guards and a separate apartment near his school for play dates.

While the settlement sum was not disclosed, we have a feeling Pinault must have coughed up something pretty close to Evangelista’s asking price–after all, Evangelista doesn’t seem like the type to back down.

Fashionista Week in Review: Vogue‘s Model Behavior, the 25 Most Influential Women Designers and Kate Upton Gets More Famous

One Small Step for Vogue: One giant step for fashion-kind. All 19 editions of Vogue announced this week they will no longer work with unhealthy-looking models or girls under 16.

Linda’s Child Support Demands: Making her “$10,000 to get out of bed” claims look downright tame, Linda Evangelista is asking for $46,000 a month in child support (that’s $552,000 a year). Unsurprisingly, the court battle is getting a little dirty.

Rules to Retail By: An anonymous ex-retail employee lays down the law when it comes to shopping. Learn it. Live it. Love it.

Tom Ford’s Naughty Lookbook: In typical Tom Ford style, his spring 2012 menswear lookbook features nudity and ass pinching.

Linda Evangelista’s Child Support Battle With François-Henri Pinault Gets Ugly

The child support battle between Linda Evangelista and her former flame and PPR chief François-Henri Pinault hit the courts yesterday in New York City, and the exes have already started in with the mudslinging. According to the New York Daily News , Evangelista’s lawyers told the court that “[Pinault] suggested [Evangelista] terminate the pregnancy.” Yikes.

Pinault’s spokesperson denied that he ever told her to have an abortion, and said that he told her, “I will take my responsibility.” If that’s true, why hasn’t he paid any child support?

Linda Evangelista Asking for a Record-Breaking $46,000 a Month in Child Support from François-Henri Pinault

The child support fight between supermodel Linda Evangelista and her baby daddy, PPR’s chief executive (and Mr. Salma Hayek), François-Henri Pinault, is shaping up to be really ugly. The New York Daily News has a lot of the details about Evangelista’s over-the-top lifestyle and her child support demands, which, if she wins, could be record-breaking.

In case you forgot, the duo dated from September 2005 thru January 2006 (which is, you know, not a very long time) and Evangelista was pregnant when they broke up. Evangelista didn’t reveal the paternity of her child, Augie, until she filed court papers against Pinault for child support this past summer. And now she’s really going for it.

The NYDN is reporting that Evangelista is asking for a whopping $46,000 a month in child support payments. To put that into perspective, the previous New York state child support payment record is held by Diddy, who shells out $19,000 a month to the mother of his kid. So why exactly does she need that much money?

Karl Lagerfeld Shot Supermodel Linda Evangelista for the New Chanel Eyewear Campaign

The revival of ’90s supermodels continues. In her first Chanel campaign since that decade, Linda Evangelista is the newest face of Chanel Eyewear. She succeeds fellow ’90s supermodel and current (revived) Guess girl Claudia Schiffer. Should we just stop calling them ’90s supermodels and instead refer to them as forever supermodels? They can’t be stopped. Read more →
