From the Upper West Side (Michael Kors) to the far southern reaches of Tribeca (Proenza Schouler) the most buzzed about shows took part in a little gender play with menswear-inspired tailoring.
No red carpet gowns here.
Starting in September, you don’t have to be dating George Clooney to get your hands on some Marchesa. The brand is now launching a fragrance, according to WWD. Georgina Chapman told the trade, “Eveningwear evokes an emotion, and this scent does the same thing.” So if you think of iris, freesia, young violet leaves, jasmine, Read more →
It’s been a big year for Fashionista. Our traffic increased by over 40%, we got a makeover, we traveled from Paris to Istanbul and back to cover the shows, we held our first panel discussion, and threw our first party. (More events and panels to come in 2011, we promise.)
Of course, none of what we’ve accomplished would have been possible without our devoted readers. From a sorority’s ridiculous dress code to The City‘s demise, you kept us on our toes. Click through for our 10 biggest stories in 2010. Here’s to a fantastic 2011, (and a better slideshow tool)!
We heart you,

This week, Kate Bosworth glammed it up in Derek Lam. Sienna Miller sported a perfect daytime look of cropped trousers and white sweater by Topshop. Freida Pinto looked gorgeous as usual in a bold Alexander McQueen number. Finally, Elle Fanning and her Somewhere director Sofia Coppola both looked lovely in Marchesa and Celine, respectively.
1. Was Rachel’s conversation with Oscar backstage a conversation or a press interview? The vibe was very there-are-a-lot-of-cameras-pointed-towards-us-so-we-need-to-say-things-to-each-other.
2. This is just a suggestion, but why couldn’t Rachel and Roger just pretend their anniversary isn’t during fashion week and celebrate it before or after instead of complaining so much about how they can’t spend time together? Don’t people do that?
3. Why is everything a “moment?” Seriously, Rachel and Brad said the word “moment” at least 7 times during the episode, including:
“White Moment” – something Rachel dies for, natch, and that Cameron is also known to love.
“Princess Moment” – Rachel referring to ODR’s collection and something Cameron hasn’t had in a while
“Anti-black Moment” – Rachel referring to what Demi apparently needs to have (which may have worked, as Demi rocked a purple printed mini dress on Regis & Kelly this morning).
“Whoever decided the stages should be white just fucked up my whole moment!” – Brad, um, having a moment.
We’re sure the looks will be revealed on Entertainment Tonight or Access Hollywood either this evening or the next, but we decided to make predictions on who Allen Schwartz–the unofficial king of Adventures in Copyright–will make undeserved bank on this Oscars season. We say:
It only took us a few days to figure out why Rachel Zoe was heading back to LA post-Milan instead of hopping on a flight to Paris: the Oscars are on Sunday. So we’ve picked out the dresses we want the nominees to wear–Best Actress & Best Supporting Actress–and ignored what they’ll probably wear, because Read more →
1. Once they told the designers they had to make a design using the Campbell’s Soup logo, why did no one go for a Stephen Sprouse/Andy Warhol-esque minidress? (And don’t try to tell me that Jesus’ mini fits is that category.) 2. Why was everyone’s fabric fire-engine red? Were they not allowed to use other Read more →
Got about a gazillion dollars and a big heart? Then you might want to get in on Charity Buzz‘s latest auction to benefit The Rose Foundation and The White Ribbon Alliance. Red carpet favorite Marchesa has put together a package for the site’s annual Valentine’s Day auction. Not only will the winner receive a collection Read more →
And…scene. Boy, was this a painful season of PR. We’re not sure we can be convinced to go back for more. But we will keep you spoiler-free in the meantime. 1. Did you look at Heidi and think “Holy Pink!?” 2. Nina’s face at Irina during judging, who didn’t love it? 3. Really, that much Read more →
