Elegance. As it seems French women’s greatest asset. Hopefully Carine Roitfeld will learn American people more about elegance, being the freshly employed fashion consultant of Barney’s New York: “You can’t learn how to be elegant; you can only learn how to avoid mistakes. The rest is instinct. Elegance is about…

We’ve got ourselves some press-coverage again. Not something huge, but funny to see that we got quoted this time instead of quoting someone else.
About ‘curvaceous’ Crystal Renn’s first appearance on a Chanel runway: ”Lagerfeld had cast the show with a slightly more curvaceous model named Crystal Renn, not seen on any Chanel catwalk before. This in itself was groundbreaking for the house, but there was also the return of personality models encouraged to…
WWD posted this interesting article this morning about bloggers becoming the new fashion celebrities. Isn’t that what we were saying all along? The most important part is getting recognition from the fashion industry, and it finally seems to be working now. Just like Susie Bubble (Susanna Lau) says, it’s time…
Donatella Versace, and her late brother Gianni were responsible for the rise of the supermodels. The Independent interviewed Donatella about the new generation of models, that according to Donatella lack ‘ego’. They are too ‘natural’. Obviously the word ‘natural’ doesn’t come across in Donatella’s dictionary….. “I don’t even know what…
It’s the second quote about Kate Moss in a week. Sorry about that, but she’s one of our icons. And an icon who could have become royalty… As it seems Kate Moss and the former heir to the throne of Italy, Prince Emanuele Filliberto have dated for a while.
This is what Prince Emanuele said about the relationship:
“Who would not fall in love with Kate Moss? She is charming, intelligent and very beautiful,” Filiberto told Italian magazine Chi. “We were together for about eight months and she was a wonderful and fascinating woman, not bizarre or weird at all. Then our relationship ended because that’s how things go. But I remember her as a passionate woman.”
….she’s losing her interest in print magazines, as she told online magazine Ponystep:
“I find magazines less and less interesting — I don’t really buy magazines or look at magazines. I mean I’ve got a twelve year old and we were talking about it yesterday — she’ll go on the internet and probably look at something like your [online] magazine [Ponystep] more. She would not ever go to a newsagent and buy a magazine. And even here when we get sent ones that I’ve got work in, she’s not really interested in it. In a way I’m doing less editorial because it seems a bit tired now.”
…her daughter Lila Grace already has a distinguished sense of style and our handbag collection fades next to hers: ”Lila’s already got a great handbag collection! She’s got a mirrored Fendi bag and she’ll say things like, ‘I’m not going to wear that anymore.”
Grace hates interviews and trends… ”Do you ever see me giving interviews? I’m never one of those people talking into a microphone at the end of a show. I’m not prepared to crush some poor designer who’s just spent six months slaving over a collection. I think it’s horrible and…
