Oscar de la Renta Made Hillary Clinton's Vogue Cover Happen, Dolce & Gabbana's Crown Sells Out, and Another Jablonski Models
Oscar de la Renta reveals how he had to convince Anna Wintour to put then First Lady Hillary Clinton on that iconic Vogue cover. {Haute Living} A vending machine is out there, somewhere, filled with Hermes, Dior, and McQueen handbags--but they'll cost you a bit more than a bottle of Coke. {HuffPo via Instagram} Because two beautiful and unrelated Jablonski models (Constance and Jacquelyn) weren't enough for the world, now there's a third leggy Jablonski you might want to get acquainted with: Meet Maggie! {Daily Mail}
Karl Lagerfeld Shoots Cara Delevingne for Numéro, Lady Gaga Dresses Like a Lady, and J.Crew Made a $1,000 T-Shirt
Stop the presses! Lady Gaga stepped out in New York looking like an ACTUAL LADY. More of this, please, Gaga. {NYLON Blogs} Is it safe to call Cara Delevingne a Karl Lagerfeld muse at this point? The designer photographed the model for Numéro's September issue. {The Front Row View} As for another prominent designer-cum-photographer, Hedi Slimane lensed Sky Ferreira in these press images, featuring "ethereal and sultry" makeup by Amy Chance. Those words don't always belong together, but in this case, it's accurate. {Bernstein & Andriulli} Gah! On Kanye West's Kris episode, he'll apparently give us a look at baby North. Audience members say that North looks like Kanye, but with Kim's huge almond-shaped eyes. Smart move, Kris, making us actually want to tune in to your show (but just this once). {Daily Mail}
Leah's Super Skinny Just-the-Right-Shade of Grey Jeans
J. Brand just never fails me. Their jeans do the one most important thing that all jeans should do: make your ass look good. This is a new style from J. Brand called "photo ready." These jeans are supposed to slim and lift and hold and make you look great in a photo--get it? But they really do all those things.
Hayley's Unrolled Hem Denim
I've been kind of obsessed with an unrolled hem on jeans lately. I already cut the hem off my beloved high-waisted J.Crew jeans (which I still wear to death) but recently I've been craving that extra level of undone-ness. Enter, the unrolled hem.
Jump On It
There's really an all-in-one thing going on in fashion right now. First, we wanted rompers; then it was overalls. Now, we're fiending for a good, full-legged jumpsuit. Celebs, it seems, are right on board with us.

Why Are So Many Commercial Brands Showing at Fashion Week?

Editor's Pick: Cheryl's White Jeans That Aren't Really White

Fashion News Roundup: Kim Kardashian Gets Flour Bombed, Dov Charney is Cleared of Sex Abuse Charges, and American Idol Has a Clothing Line
Kim Kardashian Gets a Little Messy: This is definitely not the kind of flower flour girls like receiving. After spending probably three hours in hair and makeup, poor Kimmy K was flour-bombed (think pie-d before the ingredients are mixed) by some disgruntled onlooker at her fragrance release event. Turns out that suspected culprit PETA was in fact not responsible for this half-baked (hehe) sabotage-- but a rep made sure to tell TMZ that they were pretty pleased just the same. {Styleite, TMZ} Dov Charney is An 'Innocent' Man: Could 2012 be the year of Dov Charney's comeback? After being on the constant brink of bankruptcy, American Apparel's founder and CEO can say adieu to another legal hurdle. A Brooklyn judge has dismissed a lawsuit brought on by a former employee last year claiming that Charney had used her as a "sex slave." {HuffPo} American Idol Becoming Fashion Forward: Following the announcement that Tommy Hilfiger will be the reality show's new "style advisor," it's been revealed that American Idol will be releasing its new 'Authentic Icon' clothing line at Kohl's in April - also home to AI judge Jennifer Lopez's own clothing range. It seems even Idol alum (and Smash star) Katherine McPhee is getting in on the fash game: She was reportedly seen sprinting to the Conde Nast building to "meet Miss Anna Wintour" on Wednesday-- though we're betting there was nary a mention of 'Kohl's' in that meeting. {NY Mag, NY Post}
