Prolific and quotable designer Karl Lagerfeld makes for an intimidating interview subject: Permanently shielded from eye contact by a pair of shades, he's armed with a seemingly endless arsenal of knowledge -- and a very particular way of doing things that makes the idea of speaking to the man kind of, well... terrifying.

Fashion can be dangerous, people. Be careful out there.

Believe it or not, the Met Gala wasn't the only event this week that drew a stylish crowd. From Kate Bosworth's adorable Miu Miu, to a Chloe Sevigny white Christopher Kane moment, click through for this week's not-so-punk best dressed.

Alber Elbaz sat down with Harper's Bazaar's EIC Glenda Bailey yesterday at Hearst Tower for a "Master Class" session, where he discussed everything from his view on other designers to his own career path--and we got to sit in. Elbaz weighed in on John Galliano's possible return, as well as the controversy surrounding Céline allegedly ripping off his former mentor Geoffrey Beene.

Last night, Hearst held an intimate Q&A session with its newest staff member: Carine Roitfeld, they glossy's new Global Fashion Director. Harper’s Bazaar US editor-in-chief Glenda Bailey intro’ed Roitfeld, while Town and Country’s Jay Fielden asked the questions. In a tight-fitting grey dress, sky-high Alaïa boots, and a Miu Miu mink stole, Roitfeld indulged Fielden’s questions--deftly addressing everything from Vogue rivalries, aging gracefully, “the Internet” (Roitfeld’s newest obsession), and that now iconic Gucci campaign she styled with the label’s logo shaved into a model’s pubic hair. Yes, Carine Roitfeld purred the word “pussy” several times last night.

Moncler and Miami are two words that wouldn't necessarily seem to go together. But amidst the festivities of Art Basel, this clothier associated most strongly with mountaineering wear celebrated its 60th anniversary in the most glamorous--and unexpected--of settings.

Feminine, flowy and ethereal. Some frocks seemed to literally float down the runway.

Barneys New York held their annual Beauty Breakfast last week in partnership with Harper’s Bazaar to celebrate some of the cosmetic industry’s rising talents. Bazaar's EIC Glenda Bailey, Simon Doonan and a slew of beauty industry stars set their alarms early to head to the Barneys flagship to hash out beauty routines, skin care regimens and give advice to the beauty editors eagerly gathered. Despite the presence of the effervescent and always entertaining Simon Doonan, the beauty gurus who sat on the panel discussion with Bazaar’s beauty director, Alexandra Parnass, were the real stars.
