Azzedine Alaïa

What, you mean YOU don't have a couture closet?

Cue the Clueless quotes.

Topshop has hired Antipodium's Geoffrey J. Finch to be its new creative design consultant. {Vogue UK} Grab your Miley Cyrus foam finger while you can--the cheapest Halloween costume you'll maybe ever come by is apparently almost sold out. {The Cut} Valerie Steele, director and chief curator at The Museum at F.I.T., revealed this morning that the its fall 2014 exhibit will be "Dance and Fashion."

Just because it's fashion week, doesn't mean we're taking time off from our red carpet coverage! Right smack dab in the middle of New York fashion week, it's the Grammys--the perfect dose of Hollywood glamour in the midst of all the fall collections. From Jennifer Lopez's daring Anthony Vaccarello gown to Alexa Chung's sweet Valentino frock see what all the stars wore to the awards show.

Azzedine Alaïa's doing beauty!

For the most ridiculous fall accessory find of today, we present the Alaïa embossed leather iPad case. Easily one of the most luxurious things ever,

Azzedine Alaïa has always tried to remain independent from the fashion establishment. For the most part, he shows when he wants, if at all, doesn't advertise, doesn't have a website or a Twitter, and isn't seen on celebrities or in the press as frequently as some other labels. Still, he's one of the most respected designers in the biz and people continue flocking to Barneys and the like to buy his clothes. Speaking of buying, he also hasn't had a store since 1992. However, that's reportedly about to change!

After over a year of drama at Dior, Raf Simons finally made his much-anticipated debut, showing his first-ever couture collection for the house toda

Red Carpet Reminiscing: The Met Gala always brings some red carpet fabulosity, so in anticipation of tonight's festivities, FabSugar put together a slideshow of 100 amazing Met Gala looks. {FabSugar} ALT Selects: Speaking of the Met red carpet, Vogue's André Leon Talley picks his top 10 Met Ball looks of all time. {Vogue} Drake and Tyra Banks Spotted on Date: Tyra's got herself a new man, Drizzy.

Harry Brant is a 15-year-old fashion lover and man about town. You might know him as the son of supermodel Stephanie Seymour and publisher Peter Brant. We first met him at a Miu Miu Musing last year, wherein he and his older brother Peter (II) nearly upstaged host Andre Leon Talley. We were smitten. He's only 15 but he knows his shit. And he's hilarious. We asked him to regale us with his tales from last week's couture shows (when he's there he stays with Alaïa). Enjoy. I launched my couture journey in the most glamour appropriate way I could think of: Dinner with Pat McGrath. We went to the uber chic Vietnamese restaurant Tong Yen (a Paris must). Firstly, I would just like to apologize to the other diners at the restaurant. Our dinner involved tears from laughter, fake engagement rings, and of course, dual personalities. It was DIVINE, like all outings with the make up goddess. The next day I got up and went to the Versace show. I am using the term got up very loosely because I never actually went to sleep. I got a text from Pat at 5am (she’s a 5am-9pm kind of girl) inviting me to go hang out backstage at Versace. I don’t care what time of day is--if someone invites you to hang out at Versace couture backstage, you go!

New York Takes Aim at Miranda Kerr's Vapidity: Sample quote from Miranda: "I want to encourage women to embrace their own uniqueness. Because just like a rose is beautiful, so is a sunflower, so is a peony. I mean, all flowers are beautiful in their own way, and that’s like women too.” Sample quote from New York: "Even if her workout routine, diet, and husband, Orlando Bloom, weren’t the only things reporters ever asked about, Kerr shows a strong reluctance to utter any sentences not purely banal." Zing! {New York} Daphne Guinness/FIT Exhibit Sponsor Pressured to Pull Out: Human rights group Adalah-NY is demanding the immediate withdrawal of Leviev Diamonds as a sponsor to the Daphne Guinness exhibit over at FIT. Apparently, Adalah-NY has beef with Lev Leviev (the company's owner), over his ties to the West Bank. If Guinness holds on to this sponsorship, Adalah-NY has pledged to protest the exhibit. {WWD subscription required} Cyber Monday Breaks Records: Analysts are estimating that retailers made close to $1.2 billion yesterday off Cyber Monday deals, up 33% from last year.

Wanna get someone a fabulous gift that's designer without breaking the bank? You totally can. In fact, a lot of designer labels cater to people like us who want to be fancy but for whom the Miu Miu shoes and Alaïa dresses we really want are far out of reach. These aren't knock-offs or collaborations or makeup, but real designer items that we would actually be very happy to find under the tree or in a stocking. Now if someone could tell us where to put stockings when you don't have a fireplace, that would be great. From Prada to Alexander Wang to Alaïa (seriously!), here are the 14 best little designer gifts that less than $300 can buy!

Style.com/Print, that's Style.com's new print mag (if you haven't heard), doesn't hit newsstands--or the web--until Monday, October 31 but we've got an exclusive first look at one of the juiciest features in the new issue: An interview and photo essay spotlighting legendary designer Azzedine Alaïa. Photographer Kacper Kasprzyk shot model Saskia de Brauw in head-to-toe Azzedine Alaïa (left) for the debut issue, and the photos are accompanied by a Q & A with Alaïa (conducted by Style.com EIC Dirk Standen) as well as a profile on de Brauw.

Back in April, we reported that Style.com would be launching a print magazine in the near future and now, here it is. The New York Times reports that the glossy magazine will hit newsstands next week and will go by the name of Style.com/Print. Besides its awkward title, which the Times' Eric Wilson calls "puzzling" and the slightly befuddling concept to begin with (how would clicking through endless runway shows translate into print?), the new magazine actually sounds pretty interesting.

Beyoncé, Sexy & Pregnant. That's the obvious headline that accompanies Beyoncé's cover for the November issue of Harper's Bazaar. But the accompanying cover story tells us some fun facts about Beyoncé and the designers that love her. Oh, and she looks amazing in the editorial, shot by Terry Richardson--click through for pix. Here's what we learned: - Beyoncé working on a maternity line for House of Deréon, the line she produces with her mom Tina. "I love figuring out designs that still make me feel edgy and sexy while pregnant," Beyoncé told Bazaar. "Flowy fabrics are always flattering...but I still rock my stilettos." - Designers Love Beyoncé. Everyone from Azzedine Alaïa to Tom Ford to Riccardo Tisci weighs in with praise for the superstar. In a fantastic little aside, we also learn that Alaïa listens to Beyoncé all the time and can dance the "Single Ladies" dance. Now we cannot picture anything else. Here's what these hot shot designers had to say about Bey:

Kanye West's Spring 2012 collection has already been criticized for many things, one of them being a lack of originality. One of the first tweets from inside the exclusive Paris show was from Jessica Michault (of the Times and International Herald Tribune) who said, "I think that every one of the designers sitting in the front row at Kanye West must have had a deja vue moment at some point during the show." Ouch. Though, Michault does have a point. From Alexander Wang to Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen to Azzedine Alaia, the designers West chose to have in his front row, it seemed, were ones he is inspired by. So we dug up past looks--mostly fall 2011--from those designers, plus a couple of others, that looked eerily similar to the ones West showed on saturday. Click through and tell us if you agree.

Kanye West showed his debut collection tonight in Paris. The show was easily one of the most buzzed about of the week and he wrangled an impressive front row, with designers outweighing celebrities. Based on reports from Twitter and Eric Wilson's just-posted write-up on the Times' blog On the Runway, Azzedine Alaïa, Joseph Altuzarra, Alexander Wang, Olivier Theyskens, Dean and Dan Caten, Jeremy Scott and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen were all there. The right editors were there too: Anna Wintour, Carine Roitfeld, Glenda Bailey and Anna Dello Russo. As for the celebrities who showed? La Lohan was there, as we reported, and so was Ciara, but sadly Beyonce and Jay-Z were no-shows. Or maybe, not so sadly, considering the show was slammed by critics almost as soon as the first model hit the runway. We'll have our review posted tomorrow morning (our fabulous contributor, Flaunt's Long Nguyen, was one of the lucky 100 granted a ticket). Until then, here's what the critics had to say about it over Twitter. Warning, it's not pretty.
