Oscar de la Renta is quickly becoming one of the designers whose interviews we're most excited to read. They're dishy, honest, and he always talks about the really interesting famous people he happens to be friends with. The latest, with Linda Fargo for Gotham magazine, does not disappoint.

Don't get us wrong, actor Stanley Tucci did a fine job playing a fabulous gay editor in Devil Wears Prada. That being said, I think we can all agree Simon Doonan, he of the liberty print shirts and endless quips, would have done a much better job. It turns out that's no coincidence. According to Barneys' creative ambassador at-large, Tucci based his character partly on Doonan.

It just occurred to us that yesterday's Lady Gaga profile in WWD made no mention of Nicola Formichetti, Gaga's longtime stylist, collaborator and friend. That's because Formichetti will no longer be styling the pop star--and he sounds relieved.

Back in 2010, ex-marine and occasional adult-film star Nick Gruber burst onto the fashion scene on the arm of the much older Calvin Klein. For two party-filled years he was truly living the life. Model, boyfriend, party boy. Then, almost as quickly as he had appeared, he was gone (to rehab in L.A.). Now he's back, and in a recent interview with the Daily Front Row, he opened up about everything from posing for Playgirl (it's not gonna happen guys) and that Calvin Klein tell-all he's no longer writing.

As everyone probably knows by now, Roger Ebert, beloved movie critic (and a staple of my childhood in Chicago) died yesterday. Luckily he left us reams and reams of hilarious, touching, and often snarky--in the smartest way possible--movie reviews. Here's what he had to say about two of our favorite fashion flicks, Clueless and Zoolander.

In a little gem from New York mag's "Party Lines" this week, Isaac Mizrahi responded thusly when asked if he ever drunk texts: My problem is Ambien e-mailing. I once cc'ed Anna Wintour and Peggy Siegal after taking Ambien. I forget what I said but they responded asking, "Are you all right?" That was about five years ago. So no more Ambien emailing for me. Mizrahi's habit of Ambien emailing fashion editors also made it into his cabaret act.

Three years ago, when Tavi Gevinson attended couture week for the first time at age 13--and sat front row--not everyone in the industry was so psyched. In fact, some critics found her presence rather...irksome, so much so that one Grazia editor even complained the pint-sized blogger's enormous bow was blocking the runway at the Dior Couture show. Not that Tavi's ever been troubled by the hate. Actually, she was kind of pleased with herself for pissing so many people off.

Do you know what a pokeberry is? Neither did we. Maybe because we didn't spend our pre-teen years smooshing them onto our faces like Dolly Parton did. In her new inspirational book, Dream More (which is excerpted in DuJour), the over-the-top country legend describes her pre-Dollywood beauty routine, which involved the elusive, apprently non-Pokemon related berry, along with some used matches and a perfume with more than just floral top notes:

We here at the Fashionista offices are pretty excited about the Emmy nominations, announced this morning, because there were so many of our obsessions in the mix (Mad Men! Game of Thrones! Schmidt!). And then of course, we can't wait for the inevitable red carpet hits and misses. We aren't the only ones already thinking about Emmy night fashion. According to an interview with Vulture, Lena Dunham and real-life gal pal Zooey Deschanel are already plotting their nail art:

“Before the show I dressed like a homeless person. I used to buy everything at garage sales. It was hard to give up! I’d be like, ‘But this crazy sweater is amazing, and it only cost 25 cents!'” --Leighton Meester to Lucky on her thrifty pre-Gossip Girl wardrobe. With Blair Waldorf and the other Upper East Siders (and of course, that lowly Brooklynite Dan) going on a permanent Hamptons holiday after next season--sobbing, btw--will Leighton be returning to her hobo ways?

Obviously, Karl Lagerfeld is up on his tawdry tabloid scandals. New York caught up with the Kaiser at the amfAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala in Cannes last week and asked him about massages--who he'd like to get one from, who he'd like to give on to. It was a relevant and not pervy question considering Harvey Weinstein had auctioned off a massage by Heidi Klum as part of the event. As always, Lagerfeld had a strong, opinionated answer:
