Karl Lagerfeld’s period film Once Upon a Time, which stars Keira Knightley as Coco Chanel, is finally here–all 15 glorious minutes of it.
The designer-cum-director reportedly gave the actors, including Knightley, Clotilde Hesme, Lindsey Wixson, Stella Tennant, Tallulah Harlech, their lines just moments before shooting–which makes a lot of sense when you watch the film.
Galliano’s not going. See who is.
The Met Ball is like the Oscars for the fashion industry: all the best people in all the best dresses.
This year’s theme, punk, presents an interesting conundrum: will people go all out, liberty spikes and Givenchy nose rings and all, or just throw some studs on a Chanel suit and call it pseudo-punk?
We’re hoping for the former, and so in the spirit of going the distance, we’ve picked out our favorite punk fashions and paired them with Met Ball regulars like Anna Wintour and Julianne Moore and some fantasy guests (Bjork, anyone?).

PARIS–Donatella Versace could not have chosen a more appropriate locale for her Atelier Versace show.
She presented her spring couture collection at Le Centorial, a turn of the century restored building in the Bourse area of Paris which was, at the time of its construction in 1876, a revoluationary architectural project built by Gustave Eiffel’s firm. Old traditions met modern steel and glass constructions; the dome of Le Centorial rivaled that of the Grand Palais. So it was fitting that Versace’s collection was all about the interplay between structured garments and soft fabrics.

At the time of the shoot, Karl Lagerfeld told WWD that “[Ondria] doesn’t look 15. She looks 18 or 19.” Well, he certainly styled her that way. Clad in a see-through dress and rocking a suggestive pout, the young teen definitely looks older than her years.
From the celebs, to the Chanel blankets stashed under seats (it was snowing), to the cozy, romantic clothes, read on for everything you need to know about this grand spectacle.
Karl Lagerfeld is shooting Chanel’s spring 2013 campaign here in the big apple–and he’s cast familiar face Stella Tennant (who fronted Chanel’s fall 2012 campaign) as well as fresh face Ondria Hardin, WWD is reporting.
But while Hardin may be new to the fashion industry, her name already has considerable buzz around it–and not necessarily the good kind.
Tomorrow is the official first day of fall and if there’s been an official animal of the fall fashion season, it’s cats. So, we thought we’d photoshop some cats onto fashion ad campaigns, as we’re wont to do.
So, can you guess what our favorite part of last night’s Olympics closing ceremonies was? While there ended up being plenty of fashion-related topics to discuss from the actual games, nothing compared to this.
