There's no doubt as to who the model of the season is. Cara Delevingne, in all her goofy-faced glory, has walked damn near every major runway in New York and London, landed her first Vogue UK cover, and commands a massive audience on social media (over 470,000 followers on Twitter, 747,000 on Instagram). And while we know she can walk, today we learned something new about the Brit beauty: She can also sing!

Milan Fashion Week has officially kicked off and we're bringing you everything you need to know from the shows! Check out Alberta Ferretti's delicate and feminine collection, Hogan's bright collaboration with Katie Grand, and Max Mara's classic safari neutrals.
Last night, the first night of Milan fashion week, I trekked over to the Katie Grand for Hogan party at the historical (but not old by Milan standards) Casa degli Atellani. Amidst handfuls of parmesan and gulps of cocktails (jet lag cure), I managed to steal a few minutes with the woman of the hour: Katie Grand herself. Read on to see what the influential stylist (and now designer) had to say on how the collaboration came about, what the process was like--and why she's a bit competitive with Choupette.

After months of speculation, Amanda Brooks has been hired as the new fashion director of Barneys New York. “I have long admired Amanda and her effortless blend of luxury and individual style. Her unique perspective on fashion mirrors what Barneys represents and we feel very fortunate to have her join the team,” said Daniella Vitale, the company's new chief merchandiser, in a statement. She begins February 7, just in time to sit front row at New York Fashion Week. While much of our generation knows Brooks as more of a socialite and personal style icon, penning the guide I Love Your Style in 2009, she also has plenty of legit fashion cred. Her most recent position was director of fashion at William Morris, where she worked with Chanel, Tod's, and American Express on marketing, advertising, and image building. As an independent consultant, she worked with DvF, Tory Burch, and Roger Vivier. She was also at one point the creative director of Hogan, as well as Tuleh. She has also written for top notch publications, such as Vogue and The New York Times. We've always thought of Brooks as more of a Bergdorf girl, so it'll be interesting to see how she adapts her uptown sensibility to the decidedly downtown Barneys brand.
