Betsey Johnson Isn’t Going Anywhere: The Designer Still Plans to Show at New York Fashion Week, Star in Reality Show
Betsey Johnson’s company announced yesterday that it would be filing for bankruptcy and closing its stores, putting a rumored 350 employees out of work. But Betsey is not going down without a fight: Her brand and aesthetic will live on.
We can still expect to see Betsey cartwheeling down the runway at New York fashion week come September, WWD is reporting. The designer is staying on as creative director of the brand, and will continue designing sportswear, though, as mentioned yesterday, the emphasis will be on her more moderately priced Betsey Johnson line, which has sold much better than her runway collection. WWD reports that aobut 75% of the spring merch will be moderately-priced, and the rest “editorial- and designer-range pieces.”

Fashion News Roundup: Male Models Deliver Madonna’s Perfume to Editors, Tel Aviv Hosts Its First Fashion Week, and Kim Kardashian Upsets Australia
Madonna’s Perfume Delivered by Male Models: Madge apparently sent some studly male models to hand-deliver her new Truth or Dare fragrance to beauty editors in NYC. Sadly, our notably male-deprived office was not included in this gesture – leading me to believe that Madonna is in on some Mean Girls-esque, four-for-you,-Glenn-Coco-and-none-for-Gretchen-Weiners reverse-psychology scheme to subconsciously make us want her perfume even more. Damn you, Madonna, and your sneaky mind games! {Telegraph}
RIP Master Embroiderer Francois Lesage: The Frenchman who led the embroidery atelier that served Chanel, Oscar de la Renta, and Bill Blass, has died at age 82. Lesage was known for being a true couture artisans, attaching every single bead by hand – a tradition that is now only utilized by a handful of designers. {NY Times}
An Account of Tel Aviv’s Very First Fashion Week: Lucky Mag contributer Ray Siegel reflects on Tel Aviv’s first-ever fashion week, hosted by Roberto Cavalli. Apparently each favorite look was immediately followed by avid applause – guess that’s faster than waiting to read the reviews! {Lucky}

Rachel Bilson to Launch ShoeMint with Nicole Chavez and Steve Madden, Who Calls Her ‘This Generation’s Jane Birkin’
In news that does not surprise us at all, the always-stylish Rachel Bilson will be the next celebrity to partner with BeachMint on a new ecommerce site. Bilson follows fellow actresses-cum-designers Kate Bosworth (JewelMint) and Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen (StyleMint) and singer Jessica Simpson (BeautyMint) in collaborating with the social commerce platform. Like Kate, Rachel is working with her friend and stylist Nicole Chavez. And since jewelry, tees and beauty products are all covered, they’re doing footwear! The site, which is set to launch in November, will be called ShoeMint and they are partnering with Steve Madden on affordable shoes.
We love Rachel’s style and have to admit we kind of saw this coming–she was JewelMint’s first guest curator and like Kate, Rachel is one of those actresses who, regardless of whether or not she’s working on anything, is constantly in magazines and gossip blogs because of what she’s wearing. I mean, her most memorable acting role is still The O.C., which ended in 2007 and she hasn’t really fallen off our radar since. Though, her new show Hart of Dixie seems promising (right?).

Adventures in Copyright: Steve Madden Takes a Shine to Miu Miu’s Glittery Boot
We’re not exactly surprised Steve Madden ripped off Miu Miu–actually the mass retailer has already done it before–but we are a tad taken aback that they’ve chosen to copy this shoe in particular.
