Devi Kroell’s Madison Avenue Dream Comes True
Devi Kroell made her first metallic python hobo bag five years ago. It wound up on the arm of Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Simpson, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and just about every fashion editor in town, and Kroell hasn’t looked back since. The Austrian-born, New York-based designer introduced footwear, including a very early take on the now omnipresent [...]
The Stone Set: Dinner With Samantha Wills
There was a sort of meta-Hollywood moment on Tuesday night at a girly dinner for Aussie model-turned-jewelry designer Samantha Wills when Lindsay Lohan tried on a set of bracelets strung with religious charms, named Mary-Kate. The Sydney-based Wills was in town after a trip to Los Angeles, where she’s already amassed a starlet following. Lohan [...]

Fox For Armani, Armani For Senate, And More…
Megan Fox is the new Victoria Beckham. The actress’ much-rumored Armani underwear campaign is a done deal, with ads set to appear this spring.[WWD]Speaking of Armani, he could be Italy’s newest senator.

Blasblog: Celebrating New York In Paris…I Think
There are at least two things I can count on in Paris: various fellow New Yorkers letting loose for fashion month’s last leg, and a late-night dance party at Regine’s. For the past few seasons, I’ve helped friends like Paul Sevigny, MisShapes Leigh Lezark and Geordon Nicol, and Tommy Saleh organize a little fête, appropriately [...]
Yea, Nay, Or Eh: The Lindsanity Edition
The expectations were low. Well, frequently low and stewing in the wicked juice of potential schadenfreude. Unfortunately, as it turns out, Lindsay Lohan’s debut as artistic adviser at Emanuel Ungaro warranted them. After yesterday’s show, no one, it seems, had anything nice to say, whether about the circuslike atmosphere or the ticky-tacky, undeveloped clothes that [...]
Double Time: Lohan and Archs On Ungaro
Estrella Archs and Lindsay Lohan sat down yesterday to talk to Style.com about the new Emanuel Ungaro collection on which they’re collaborating. In separate rooms.

At Didier Ludot: Decades Of L.B.D.’s But No Lohan
For Didier Ludot’s celebration last night for the tenth anniversary of his label La Petite Robe Noire, the fountains of the Palais Royal were scented with Eau Blanche by Francis Kurkdjian.

Lacroix’s Knight, Lindsay’s Tweet-Vite, And More…
Christian Lacroix’s new white knight is an Ajman sheikh. This acquisition has “couture inspiration” written all over it. [WWD]Don’t ask for your size. Presumably the Rodarte designs on display at the Cooper-Hewitt Museum this January will be given the white-glove treatment, so don’t even think about trying something on. [WWD]Lindsay Lohan’s invitation to Miley Cyrus [...]
Lindsay To Ungaro: Thar She Blows
The rumors were true. Hurricane Lindsay is headed for the house of Ungaro, mere months after Esteban Cortazar’s departure following reported tension over bringing the starlet on as permanent muse. Lohan, whose official title is “artistic adviser” (maybe “pantless paparazzi fodder” was taken?), joins new head designer Estrella Archs in a bid to drum up [...]
