Joe Zee, ELLE magazine's creative director, is teaching a two-week-long session on design and garment construction at Stitched Fashion Camp in East Hampton this summer. Sadly, it's not an overnight facility, so there will be no stories told 'round the campfire. {WWD} Kate Moss hit her head on a door as she departed from the Rock On benefit dinner on Thursday night. She didn't look too happy, though the Mail writes she had "a banging night!" {Daily Mail} Jennifer Aniston is the new face for Saks Fifth Avenue's Key to the Cure campaign. All proceeds from the $35 t-shirts (available at Saks stores) will be donated to the EIF’s Women’s Cancer Research Fund. {WWD} Ready for a Met Ball redux? This year's Guggenheim International Gala is being sponsored by Christian Dior, with Raf Simons as the event's honorary co-chair. We can only imagine the amount of clothing from the French fashion house that will make its way to the museum come November 6. {Vogue UK}

Here are 20 ways Lauren Conrad and co. gave fashion closet interns everywhere false hopes of going to Paris and more. {Buzzfeed Fashion} Student of the universe Roberto Cavalli has received an honorary degree from Milan's Domus Academy. We think the real reward is that he evaded the atrocious student loans. {WWD}
