In the wake of the Harvey Weinstein mess, Marchesa designer and Weinstein's soon-to-be-ex-wife is opting out of fashion week.
The fashion industry is finally speaking up.
There's still time!
She says she doesn't know what her husband is doing with the fashion house he bought last year.
It wasn't just Old Hollywood waves this year.
And Georgina Chapman loses something near and dear. SAD.
It appears that the movie mogul has found his latest fashion pet project.
Last night, Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig enjoyed the perfect summer evening for a rooftop celebration to launch their Marchesa contemporary off-shoot: Marchesa Voyage. Suitably fancy guests mingled and sipped “light” fruity cocktails atop the swanky Gramercy Park Hotel while browsing displays of the new collection, which officially hits stores on September 1. We chatted with the designers about the new collection, pleaded with them for hints about their upcoming spring show (it half-worked), and pressed them for their thoughts on diversity on the runway.
Who's the host of Project Runway All Stars season 3? Why, that would be none other than extremely qualified fashion industry vet, Alyssa Milano!

Marchesa at prom: Not just for Blair Waldorf anymore! More deets on Georgina Chapman's "special occasion" gown and dress collection for JCPenney. It's called Pearl. {WWD} More designers are finally starting to pay models for walking in their shows, instead of just gifting them clothes. But you'll never guess who's still holding out...{BuzzFeed} Kate Upton talks to Ellen DeGeneres about shooting her Antarctic Sports Illustrated cover, plus her favorite body part--but it's not what you're thinking. {HuffPo} This hurts more than a blister: Manolo Blahnik tells Interview Magazine that he doesn't find "anonymous girls" like Anne Hathaway or Amanda Seyfried very memorable. Burn. {Page Six}
Whether we're talking about the floor sweeping gowns or the A-list packed front rows, Marchesa always knows how to put on a show with a capital S. As for the front row, it was slightly less sparkly. No Kimye this time. Though Miley Cyrus is no B-lister. The clothes, however, were as dramatic and romantic as ever.
1. Wait, so... is this the finale? Or... 2. Why does Project Runway always make the designers repeat exactly what we just heard too? Like, yes, Emilio, we know you're being sent to Paris to learn couture techniques and get a tour of Valentino. Ugh. 3. Did Joanna Coles actually take a separate flight to Paris? 4. Don't you get the sneaking suspicion that none of the designers even remember what the prizes are that they're competing for?
1. Did I or did I not predict this final four from the first episode of the season? 2. Can Joshua please create a coordinating outfit for his client's service dog? Please?? 3. If Emilio dresses regular women "all the time," why exactly is he doing Project Runway All Stars? 4. Anthony Ryan, what are you thinking?! 5. Who died and made Katie Holmes "one of America's most talented actresses?"
1. Why are the designers always 'walking up' to meet Carolyn somewhere? Can't they afford a car service--or at least public transportation? 2. Is it bad that I didn't remember Anthony Ryan's "infamous" bird seed dress? 3. What neighborhood is Emilio from where people are often burgled by fat white men coming through chimneys?

It was fashion prom meets an alterna-world bar mitzvah at the legendary Bergdorf Goodman’s 111th birthday blowout at the Plaza last night. We chatted with supermodel and Estee Lauder spokeswoman Carolyn Murphy about her upcoming Project Runway: All-Stars gig and how she’s teetering on the precipice of addictive low-brow TV viewing.
It's official: The series finale of Gossip Girl is a mere eleven episodes away. While many a cynic may argue that the show actually ended sometime during the second season, for us die-hard Upper East Side wannabes, this news is harder hitting than a Nairtini to the head. Of course, what we'll miss most of all is the fashion. Gossip Girl has been on top of the fashion game since its first "XOXO" way back in early 2007, and as the series progressed, the characters' signature styles arguably surpassed the plot development in terms of critical praise. Between Blair's preppy headbands, Chuck's dandy suits, and Serena's gravity-defying cleavage, the influence the kids of Constance have had on street style and fashion spreads alike is undeniable. So, as a tearful ode to our favorite CW soap, here's a look back at some of the style stand-outs that have made the last five years of impossible-to-follow plot lines a little more bearable.
Elizabeth Olsen dishes on her style and raiding her super famous older twin sisters' closets.
