- Dancers at an Australian fashion lunch performed in what are practically exact replicas of a black see-through ensemble worn by Right Said Fred. [Stylist]—We know the ‘90s are having a moment right now, but this?!

- Model/it girl Daisy Lowe is doing a line of jewelry for Swarovski, to be released in January, that relates to the stars, moon, and planetary movements. [W Editors’ Blog]—Will there be waxing gibbous earrings?

- Speaking of shopping, Gilt Groupe addicts can now get their style on via more affordable new lil’ sis, Gilt Fuse. [Gilt Fuse]
- Model Sesilee Lopez wants to be the next Tyra Banks. And here we were worrying that the crazy would die when Tyra does… [W]

- Justin Timberlake bought a house in Connecticut. Plenty of golf for him there. [New York Post]
- This just in: Gap‘s new 1969 jeans collection is, in fact, miraculous. There’s allegedly a style to fit literally any and every shape. [Nylon]
Style Buzz: Model Children And Kanye Styles Elle Shoot
- “Real Housewife” Danielle’s daughter Christine Staub is following in her mother’s over-Botoxed footsteps and becoming a model. In her defense, the soon-to-be high school sophomore actually is pretty gorgeous. No wonder IMG Models scooped her up at age 15. [People]
- Kanye West, still apparently being considered fashion-y, styled an as-yet-unidentified model for Elle‘s October issue. Coincidentally, GF Amber Rose just did her first photo shoot for Ford. We sense a collaboration… [The Cut]
Style Buzz: Jackie O’s Bday and Topshop Rumors
- This week Jackie O would have celebrated her 80th birthday were the style icon and all around classy lady still with us. Wear a pillbox hat or big, round sunglasses in homage to her this weekend. [Huffington Post]
- Rumor has is that Topshop is making its way to Brooklyn next year. The brand says “no comment” but we’re holding our collective breaths and trying not to pee ourselves in excitement. [NY Times’ The Local]
- Emma Watson thinks it’s “strange” that people obsess over her style. If that’s true, then count us amongst the odd. [The Cut]
- Riccardo Tisci, Givenchy’s head designer, is creating a capsule collection, Redux. We still probably won’t be able to afford it, but looking and drooling are free! [Vogue]
Style Buzz: Daisy Lowe Is Quite The Cool Customer
- “24 Hours With Daisy Lowe,” a reality show starring the British model/It girl, premieres tomorrow on MTV UK. It includes footage of her prepping for an Agent Provocateur shoot like the one above. Apparently, her life, is like, really fabulous. [Refinery 29]
- Ten of Hillary Clinton’s staff members went on a jewelry shopping spree in Thailand while their boss was lobbying for stronger democracies in Southeast Asia. Everyone’s making a big deal over the fact that they spent $4,000 in an hour, but we’re guessing they all work pretty hard and about $400 apiece isn’t too terrible. [WWD]
- Conde Nast has instituted an assistant contest of sorts, offering $500 extra to the best ones each month. This just when we thought it couldn’t get any more cut throat at the likes of Vogue and W. [Gawker]

- It’s no longer a maybe: Maybelline’s taking over Fashion Week this Fall, sponsoring the shows at Bryant Park. [WWD]
- As it turns out, the Model Lounge at Delicatessen in Soho is jealousy-inducing, but not actually full of hot lady models getting it on. Sorry boys. [New York Post]
- Kate Moss—known for her hot bod, love of snorting, and general unwillingness to grant interviews—has opened up to the press about photographer Rankin. So yeah, it’s nothing personal, but it’s edifying to know that she speaks in addition to just looking hot all the time. [Modelinia]
- Kylie Minogue’s launching “Inverse,” a fragrance for men this September. Cause female pop stars know a lot about cologne, right? [WWD]
- Katherine Heigl’s gone brunette…What do you think of her new ‘do? [Glamour]
Style Buzz: Top Models On the Cheap
- Models walked for 50 euros instead of their usual 1,300 or more fee at the Christian Lacroix couture show. A rather sweet show of solidarity with the struggling designer, don’t you think? [Imaginary Socialite]
- Lindsay Lohan and Christina Aguilera are slotted for cameo spots on upcoming episodes of “Project Runway.” This totally makes sense given how classy and fashionable those two always are. [The Mirror]
Style Buzz: Will “The Rachel Zoe Project” Be Back?
- TV cameras for Bravo trailed stylist-to-the-starlets Rachel Zoe at Fashion Week. Does this mean The Rachel Zoe Project is up for a second season? I’d die. D.I.E. DIE. [Fashion Week Daily]
- Vogue put a woman of color of their cover for the second time this year! First, Michelle Obama…now Beyonce on the April issue! [Jezebel]
- Last week, European Union banned animal testing for seven different toxicity tests of cosmetics, including skin and eye irritancy. It’s also banned the import of chemicals that were tested in this way on animals. Great news for animal lovers, but it won’t go into effect until March 2013. [Nature.com]
- Um, ew. Some poor guy in England got a tattoo as a birthday present from his girlfriend but the tat became infected and he died. That story right there will be repeated millions of times by mothers the world over, I promise you. [Telegraph]

Style Buzz: Stop Looking In My Chanel Bag, Bitch!
- We love clear accessories, but this Chanel bag is ridiculous. [My Fashion Life]
- Lindsay Lohan’s self-tanner, Sevin Nyne, debuts next month and counts caramel, sugar, coconut, Chardonnay and goji berries amongst the ingredients. So if it doesn’t turn you Lilo Orange, at the very least you can expect to smell like one very weird bag of groceries. [Daily Mail]
- Rumor has it, Vogue‘s editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour, actually shook hands with the vice president of PETA, who has lobbed red paint and eggs at her and her fur-wearing ways for years. Is the end of the Israel-Palestine conflict next? [NY Post]
Style Buzz: Michelle Obama’s New Yorker Cover, PETA Effs Up
- Michelle Obama graces another cover — this time, The New Yorker‘s style issue. The mag pokes fun at the kerfluffle surrounding Michelle’s bare arms with three doodles of Michelle strutting down a runway, arms covered up! [Mrs. O]
- PETA strikes again! The animal rights group ripped a sleeve on the Balenciaga gown worn by French Vogue editor, Carine Roitfeld, while aiming for her goat fur coat. I don’t condone assaulting people in public, but if you are going to go after someone, ruin the correct couture, at least. [Style.com]
- Eighties-inspired two tone lipstick, yay or nay? [Refinery29]
Style Buzz: Zooey Deschanel Is The Latest Celeb To Enter The Fashion Biz
- Adorable Zooey Deschanel is designing a line of sunglasses with Oliver Peoples! Whee! [Perez Hilton]

Style Buzz: Karl Lagerfeld’s Barbie Dolls
- DAMN, why do I not live in France?!?! Karl Lagerfeld designed fancy little outfits for some Barbie dolls and they’re are on display at the Colette shop in Paris from March 9-28. Pics (alongside a real-life “Ken” model) above. [Collete]
- And in more Barbie news: a lawmaker in West Virgina is trying to outlaw the Little Miss Wackadoo Body Image with the Barbie Ban Bill. Okay, I’m the first person to agree giving little kids a blonde, big-boobed, long-legged and smiling doll sends a bad message. But maybe we should put pressure on Mattel to create a doll which reflects an actual human’s body first. [MSNBC]
- “I don’t drink, but I smell like I do,” says transsexual performance artist, Amanda Lepore, about her new $950 fragrance, Amanda, which includes a note of Cristal champagne. [New York Times]
- We’ll never get sick of models falling! [Refinery 29]
Style Buzz: “Top Model” Returns Tonight!

- He’s not MY choice for sexiest royal, but whatever…“Esquire” voted Prince Charles, second in line to England’s throne, as one of their “Best Dressed Men” in their April issue. [Daily Mail]
- Jennifer Lopez borrowed $50K worth of bling from Swiss billionaire/diamond aficianado Robert Mouawad for an event at Barney’s…and liked the diamond jewelry so much she kept it. No hard feelings from the billionaire, though.
- Somewhat inexplicably, Paris Hilton will be the first recipient of The Fragrance Foundation’s “Celebrity of the Year” award in May. You know, we actually have a bottle of her Fairy Dust perfume and just haven’t gotten around to trying it yet…. [Now Smell This]
Style Buzz: Britney Spears For Candie’s, Tom Cruise Sues Over Tee Shirts, Another Target Line
- Britney Spears has done something that actually makes sense: she’s the new spokeswoman for sexy/trashy brand Candie’s, sold at Kohl’s. [WWD]
- Sarah Jessica Parker said she regrets wearing a black wedding dress when she wed Matthew Broderick in 1997 and would do things differently today: “(I would) white it up. I’d wear a beautiful, proper wedding dress, like I should have worn on that day.” [Times of India]
- Tom Cruise is threatening to sue Addictiontee.com for Photoshopping his image onto tees which say “Sex Addict” and “Everything Turns Me On.” A spokesperson for Addictiontee.com says their next tee shirt will say, “I sue everybody.” Oh…snap. [Times of India]
