Not only are they rejecting the hefty $100k price tag, they don't even think that bag is a real Birkin. {PurseBlog} Tonight, after nine months of work, Barneys New York will finally deliver their window collaboration with the Deste Foundation for Contemporary Art. {WWD, subscription required}

After Amy Winehouse's tragic passing, we wondered about the fate of her collection with Fred Perry. She told Harper's Bazaar back in October that she and Perry had designed through fall 2012 but when we asked Perry's PR for comment they would only say that the collection was “on hold until we speak with Amy’s family and management” and would not comment further. Perry has since spoken with Winehouse's family and the label has announced plans to release the fall 2012 Amy Winhouse for Fred Perry collection and wholesale the spring 2012 collection, WWD is reporting. “Amy was passionate and dedicated to the collaboration, and her signature style is clearly stamped across each piece,” Fred Perry said in a statement. Amy's royalties and fees from the collections will be donated to the soon-to-be-created Amy Winehouse foundation and Fred Perry has said he will make a "seasonal donation" to the Foundation.”

In addition to an unfinished album, Amy Winehouse also leaves behind the successful collection she designed for Fred Perry. Her collaboration with the British clothing brand began last year with a fall 2010 collection. Amy's signature retro style is what inspired Fred Perry to approach her. Richard Martin, Fred Perry’s marketing director told WWD last March, “Amy has a unique sense of style that reflects the brand’s own historical reference points.” It sounded like Amy was more involved with the design process than many celebrity designers. Martin also noted, “Amy gave crucial input on proportion, color and fit. The range clearly has Amy’s handwriting.” Her spring 2011 collection launched in March and is currently no longer available on the Fred Perry website, but there are currently still two styles available on ASOS and a few things on eBay. While there hasn't been any mention of another Fred Perry collection in the press as of late, there is a decent chance that we could be seeing another one, if not several. This past October, Amy told Harper's Bazaar, "We've pretty much done like up to autumn/winter 2012, and I'm like, 'Have we?' Yeah!"

Amy Winehouse has seemingly disappeared from the public eye for the last year or so. Now, suddenly, she’s creeping back into the pop culture landscape again. In the last week:

The Pickle Princess of Poughkeepsie: It goes without saying that the streets are going to be full of Snookis this Halloween, but why not one-up all the others and actually replicate Snooki's Halloween costume? WWD weirdly snagged a sketch of Snooki's custom-made outfit, which involves a very short green bustier dress with pickle-shaped sequins and a pickle scepter. We can't really think of a more appropriate costume for Polizzi. {WWD} ADR Halloween: Anna Dello Russo's outfits are of the utmost extravagance 365 days/year, so can you even imagine what her Halloween outfits must be like? She shares her top style references for this weekend's holiday. They include Lady Gaga, Jeff Koons, Givenchy couture and Fish costumes at the Chelsea Arts Ball in 1927. She explains, "This is a Schiaparelli mood: women as fish. It’s anthropomorphic, part of the culture of fashion." Ah, of course. {NOWNESS}

Sick of phrases like "You Would" and "F*** Africa" being tagged on the large white space underneath "Rag & Bone Bids Farewell to Cafe Colonial...," they will hold a competition where artists can submit their work for consideration. The art will be voted on by Rag & Bone's Facebook fans and the winner will be provided with all necessary painting materials and a $1000 store credit.

Apparently, that is untrue, at least for the next 3 years, which is the length of the contract he just signed. There are also rumors that Karl Lagerfeld will retire from Chanel after his 30th anniversary in 2012 and be replaced by Alber Elbaz, whose position at Lanvin will then be filled by Oliver Theyskens. Lagerfeld retiring?? What? {Hint}
