Fiona Byrne On Why She Folded Naag.com, Her Fashion Site With Agyness Deyn, and Is Launching A New One

When Fiona Byrne and Agyness Deyn launched naag.com in 2010, we had high hopes for the online mag: The fashion was on-point, the content was well-written, and hello, they had fashion’s model du jour and a veteran journalist at the helm. So, needless to say, we were a bit saddened when we popped over to naag.com recently only to find a message reading:

Agyness Deyn and Her Model Friends Fete the Launch of Naag.com

That also pretty much sums up the party. And if its attendees were any indication, their friends are people like Karen Elson, Coco Rocha, Seth Meyers, Christian Siriano, Becka Diamond, Rebecca Minkoff, Eddie Borgo, and, according to the tip sheet, an incognito Marion Cotillard. To compliment the venue’s British theme, AllSaints sponsored and Agyness was dressed head-to-toe in the UK-based brand.
