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 [...]

Blasblog: From Paris, Ups And Downs On Day One
The first full day of shows in Paris had its ups and downs. The up, in my opinion, was Christophe Decarnin’s Balmain show. On a runway atop the Ritz’s pool, he showed an entire disco of the brightest, shiniest, big-shoulder-est cocktail dresses—a crystal dream. Or as one editor put it, a “crystal meth” dream, because [...]
Blasblog: Temperley’s In-Store Dance Party
According to Alice Temperley, the two big pros to having a party in your Soho loft and showroom are that, for one, you can stay as long as you’d like, and two, there’s enough room to have a real dance floor. While I can’t attest to the former (it’s called beauty sleep), I did receive [...]
Fashion’s Book Of Love
We were trying to avoid the Valentine/Valentina allusions; but—cross
our heart—Kohle Yohannan’s new glossy tome from Rizzoli on the Russian émigré designer (and lover of Greta Garbo) is a great gift for lovers of fashion—and not only on the 14th of February. The book accompanies a retrospective at the Museum of the City of New York, [...]
