Because you can never have too many.

Since Oscar de la Renta's passing, luminaries from Anna Wintour to the Clintons have shared fond memories of the legendary designer.

Next week: Head to Lifetime for the tale of two fashion enemies who became besties through open letters (hopefully).

And Cathy Horyn discourses on the interplay of fashion, friendship and journalism.

Arthur "Art" Ortenberg, 87-year-old co-founder of Liz Claiborne Inc., has died, according to a report.

From Cathy Horyn's departure from The New York Times to Lorde's weird nails at the Grammys, we've got this week's biggest fashion news all in one place.

After 15 years with the paper, Horyn is retiring to take care of her ailing partner.

Tom Ford is something of a deity in the fashion world--from revamping Gucci to creating covetable luxury beauty products--for men, natch--it sometimes seems like Ford can do no wrong. Even A Single Man, his very first directorial effort, was Oscar-nominated. Still, Ford is not without his mistakes.

It's only day three of fashion week and we have our first official Kanye West sighting. But we didn't just spot Yeesus--we saw loads of other celebs, as well as models taking #selfies and Bill Cunningham in action. Check out all the great stuff we saw on day three:

The latest in a string of "designers fighting back" memos has emerged. This time around, Jean Paul Gaultier has shamed Style.com critic Tim Blanks for giving the French designer's widely panned couture show a negative review, telling the CFDA Eugenia Sheppard Media Award winner that he needs to "brush up on his fashion history." As nasty and hurtful as Gaultier's words may be, he's certainly not embarking on new territory. Over the past year, designers have steadily criticized their critics.

The open letter is back. Didn't you kinda miss it? While you were out boozing and barbecuing and taking in the fireworks on July 4th, Jean Paul Gaultier was busy typing out an open letter to Style.com's Tim Blanks following his less-than-stellar review of the designer's fall 2013 couture show.

"You have to have chutzpah, you have to be brave and go for it," Zac Posen told the audience as the keynote speaker at Fashionista's first ever conference, "How To Make It in Fashion." "I said, 'They see me as some kind of little prince character, so let's be that.' It created this myth." Posen opened up about the man behind the myth.

In the 1970s, the New Yorker’s fashion critic, Kennedy Fraser, wrote about clothes nearly every week. Yes, she reported on the collections. And industry personalities. But she also wrote about fashion’s role in the greater culture, whether discussing hemline lengths or blue jeans. In a New York Times review of A Fashionable Mind, Fraser’s collection of those essays published in 1981, writer Maureen Howard puts it pretty succinctly: “The book is about clothes - the wearing, buying, making, selling, discarding of clothes - and so, of course, it is about us and our society.” Fraser is undoubtedly a rare writer: one who has the ability to take an arguably shallow topic and give it the kind of depth even a serious New Yorker reader could appreciate. But lately, I’ve been thinking quite a bit about the fashion critic in general, and how that role has changed, and sometimes disappeared altogether—for no good reason.

No more hand-holding: Cathy Horyn thinks John Galliano needs to earn his second chance in the fashion world all by himself. {New York Times} Mark your calendars: Roberto Cavalli's candid autobiography will be released in October. And if it's any bit as hilarious as he has been on Twitter, this book is not going to disappoint. {VogueUK} Ever wonder what genius is responsible for Target's brilliant designer collaborations?

Last night, following the senior's fashion show in the afternoon, Parsons hosted a benefit dinner at Pier 60. The benefit served many purposes: to raise money for Parsons' scholarships, honor Proenza Schouler's Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez and Bonnie Brooks, President of Hudson's Bay Company, showcase the senior class' designs, and announce the Designers of the Year. That's a lot to pack into one evening--and it was a long one!--but considering the benefit raised nearly $1.7 million for scholarships it was completely worth it. We caught up with attendees Prabal Gurung and Proenza Schouler as well as Parsons grad Harim Jung, who took home the womenswear designer of the year awards and the Kering Empowering Imagination Award.
