Lady Gaga’s Latest Headpieces

Feb 18, 2010 @ 4:00 pm

Lady Gaga‘s latest headpieces are quite literal! For her newest video, “Telephone,” the singer wears hats made of telephones. One is made of two rotary-style dial pads (top left) and the other from a phone receiver that matches her blond locks (bottom right). Gaga’s bow hair has already inspired Chanel Couture—could telephone hats be next?

Fall Trend to Try Now: Textured Booties

Feb 18, 2010 @ 3:00 pm

The fall runways were filled with my style secret weapon—platform booties! But the new take for the season is texture: haircalf at Derek Lam (top left), patchwork at Prabal Gurung (bottom right), velvet at Alexander Wang (top right) and shearling at Thakoon (bottom left). Add these statement-makers to a slim-leg jean and simple top for a cool winter look.

Feb 18, 2010 @ 2:20 pm

Following Lee Alexander McQueen’s tragic death last week, Gucci Group, which has the majority stake in his company, announced that the fashion label will continue. “We believe in the future of the brand. Lee was very proud of the people working in the company, and so am I,” Gucci Group president and CEO Robert Polet told WWD. Polet declined to comment on who shall succeed as the label’s head designer, but a presentation of McQueen’s Fall 2010 collection will be shown on March 9 during Paris Fashion Week.

Jessica Inspires Justin (And His Mom!)

Feb 18, 2010 @ 10:30 am

When designing William Rast’s biker-inspired fall collection, Justin Timberlake had one celebrity in mind—his girlfriend Jessica Biel! “I always have one celebrity on my mind. I think it’s pretty obvious, isn’t it?” he told us backstage before the show, motioning to the lounge where Biel and his mother, Lynn Harless, were hanging out. But he’s not the only one who finds the actress inspiring. Harless, who sat front row next to her husband Paul and Biel, is also captivated by the Valentine’s Day star. “Just look at her! How can you not be inspired? She just climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro!” Harless told us. More

Proenza Schouler Debuts J Brand Jeans on Runway

Feb 18, 2010 @ 10:00 am

Proenza Schouler debuted the jeans from their exclusive collaboration with cult denim label J Brand at their Fall 2010 show last night. The high-rise skinny jeans are made of Japanese stretch denim that is graphic-printed and then hand-painted to accentuate texture and dimension. “Everyone we know wears J Brand. It was an easy choice,” Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough said in a statement. The limited-edition jeans will hit stores mid-July, and we’re definitely predicting a waiting list!

Runway Look of the Day: Proenza Schouler

Feb 18, 2010 @ 4:00 am

Proenza Schouler’s blue and black horizontal-striped skirt and matching fur-collared jacket debuted a new proportion—snug jacket paired with a full miniskirt—that I loved and the black ribbed thigh-high stockings looked both sexy and warm. The look was fun, young and strong—all at the same time.
