“I haven’t done a puzzle since I was 13,” Jason Wu confessed last night at Shiseido’s RxArt party for Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama’s jigsaw puzzle and its own new Future Solution LX skincare line. “I’m definitely going to buy one.

Jason Wu blew into a particularly blustery L.A. yesterday for a pre-party to celebrate his Spring 2010 trunk show at Neiman Marcus. “It’s such a different world out here and the weather is so nice—except for the wind,” said Wu. “But I have no hair, so I don’t have to worry.” If the hairdos of [...]

At long last, June’s storm clouds have parted, the beach towels have been spread, and we even detect love in the air. The timing couldn’t have been better for last night’s Cinema Society screening of 500 Days of Summer, a whip-smart romantic comedy (yes, we just used “whip-smart” and “romantic comedy” in the same phrase).

The awards are about to start after a flurry of late arrivals: Daphne Guinness with Proenza Schouler’s Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez, Zac Posen with a twirling Doutzen Kroes and Thakoon Panichgul who asked how early arrivers Aerin Lauder Zinterhofer and Lauren duPont looked in his pleated minidresses from resort.
