One Of Kate Moss’ Earliest Champions Speaks: “I Told Her She’d Do Giant Campaigns. And She Was Like, Wha-a-t?“
If you’ve never heard of Gene Lemuel, that’s partly by design. Back in the early nineties, Lemuel was on a fast track to the A-list of fashion photography—shooting for The Face, scouted by Italian Vogue, hip-pocketed by Helmut Newton’s former agent. Then Lemuel just about disappeared. His name is still a buzzword to a chosen [...]

Milla Jovovich: “Every Cool Person Should Want To Live In Berlin”
This season, Milla Jovovich took over spokesmodel duties for the Mercedes Benz-sponsored Berlin fashion week from fellow catwalker Julia Stegner—ergo, the Miles Aldridge-shot ads of her all over town, lounging on a Benz in a kooky spiked Philip Treacy hat. As Jovovich told us in Berlin, she loves a good fashion week…especially since her adopted [...]
Yea, Nay, Or Eh? Naughty Or Nice
At last night’s Valentino fête in L.A., the dress code was chic and unusually easy to follow: all Valentino, all the time. That’s not to say it was a one-note affair. Valentino’s designers, Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pier Paolo Piccioli, have dedicated themselves to shaking up the storied house, which means injecting a little more [...]
Tom Binns’ Dirty Decade, Chanel Gets Her Wings, And More…
Cintra Wilson on Tom Binns’ new West Village store: “[He] proves he has no problem dredging all the desirable filth out of the ’80s and adding a bit of his own.” Yes, this is a compliment. [NYT]
Milla Jovovich is Tommy Hilfiger’s newest hire. The newlywed designer/actress/model has been tasked with creating the next limited-edition Breast [...]
Blasblog From L.A.: Milla Jovovich Makes A Nice Bride
I just love a wedding. Maybe it’s because I never had a sister marry off, or because all of my aunts were married (and in one case, already divorced many times over) by the time I entered adulthood, but I’ve always been strangely up for any sort of nuptials, from quaint services back home in [...]
Uma For Givenchy, Mad Men’s Women, And More…
Uma Thurman joins Justin Timberlake as a Givenchy fragrance rep, although, sadly, not in the same ads. That would be awesome. [WWD]
Of course Mad Men is written by women who brainstorm over homemade guacamole and pitchers of mojitos. We are so not surprised. [WSJ]
Milla Jovovich has set the date. She will marry fiancé [...]
Blasblog: B. Eastie Boys
The place to be late last Thursday night was B.East. Milla Jovovich, Jen Brill, Lauren Santo Domingo, Tara Subkoff, Christopher Bollen, and I headed down there after the Museum of Natural History dance. But we were hardly the party—Sophia Lamar, Hamish Bowles, and Jack McCollough were already hanging out with the hosts, art and fashion [...]
Just When You Thought It Was Over: L.A. Fashion Week Starts Now
While this season’s runway offerings in L.A. may feel a little disjointed (it’s the first time IMG isn’t sponsoring the shows, leaving things a bit ad hoc), the West Coast style capital still has plenty on its agenda in the days to come. Trovata’s launch at Apartment Number 9 may have been the week’s kick-off [...]
Blasblog from Paris: All Roads Lead to Montana
When we say that André has the lock on Paris nightlife, we make no exaggeration. Last night I logged in time at three of his clubs: Régine’s, Le Baron, and Le Montana. That last one is his newest edition and last night, André revealed the site’s storied history (Purple magazine’s blowout being the latest notch [...]
