Morning Quickies: Micheal Kors Marries His Boo

Jessica WakemanAugust 18, 2011 //
  • Designer Micheal Kors married his longtime boyfriend Lance LePere barefoot on the beach in the Hamptons on Tuesday. Same-sex marriage became legal in New York last month. The happy couple met back in 1990 when Lance interned for Michael’s company. Do we think Heidi, Tim and Nina were invited? [Just Jared]
  • Gwyneth Paltrow may have saved one New York woman’s life on 9/11 … by almost running her over in a Mercedes SUV. [People]
  • Abercrombie & Fitch’s stock fell yesterday after the company offered to pay The Situation from “Jersey Shore” to stop wearing their clothes. [Just Jared]

Tim Gunn Talks Smack About Gretchen Jones Winning “Project Runway”

Jessica WakemanMay 13, 2011 //

“Why did the villain win? Why? I could not believe it. Gretchen’s talented, and she’s not a horrible person. But was she the winner of the season? I don’t think so. The ‘Project Runway’ designers are like my kids. I love them all. I will say I love some more than others. And there’s some I wish I’d left in a basket.”

— Tim Gunn is still blabbing that it was wack that backstabbing Gretchen Jones won over sweet little Mondo Guerra on the most recent season of “Project Runway.” I’m glad he agrees the uber-talented Mondo totally got the shaft.

After the jump, Tim talks some smack about Michael Kors, on whom he blames Gretchen’s puzzling win: Keep reading »

Dear Michael Kors, You Rock.

Winona Dimeo-EdigerOctober 7, 2010 //

Dear Michael Kors,

When I go shopping, I tend to channel a raccoon—I’m instantly attracted to anything shiny, sparkly, or fishy.

This means that I have a closet full of sequined miniskirts and silver boleros and earrings shaped like salmon fillets. I’ll go to the store with every intention of purchasing simple black trousers, but within seconds I’ve been seduced by the flashy racks of ridiculous trend pieces and I end up buying gold lamé harem pants instead. I have a really hard time buying sensible clothes. Keep reading »

Betsey Johnson Brings The Noise To “Project Runway”

Julie GersteinAugust 12, 2010 //

Fans of the ’90s, tulle, and “Sassy” magazine, get ready! Ebullient designer Betsey Johnson will be the guest judge on tonight’s episode of “Project Runway.” Tonight, the designers will be asked to make wearable items out of party store supplies (crepe paper bolero, anyone?).

It’s a tough challenge — apparently one designer ends up in the hospital tonight — and we’re wondering how Betsey’s quirkiness will mix with Michael Kors’ wit and Nina Garcia’s steely reserve. Betsey’s crazy style would have probably been “auf-ed” by Heidi Klum and the rest of the P-Run gang, so we’re expecting sparks to fly at the judging table. Keep reading »

Rachel Zoe Dies For Fashion

Susannah BreslinAugust 9, 2010 //

Harper’s Bazaar has pulled a funny! You know when Rachel Zoe says, “I die,” over a particularly fabulous item of fashion? Well, the magazine took her at her word in this pretty amusing editorial starring Ms. Zoe getting slayed by all her favorite designers — literally. Here, Marc Jacobs gives the celebrity stylist a rather shocking treatment. Find out what other designers did what to her after the jump. Keep reading »

Sparkle In The Summertime

Lauren GoldJune 7, 2010 //

Vests may seem like cold-weather clothing, but they’re actually great for when you want to layer during the summer, since they’re, you know, sleeveless. This vest by Michael Kors works with both casual and nice outfits, like an easy jean and tank combo or your simple black dress. Sparkles are so versatile that the possibilities with this piece are endless.

The Guy With The Craziest Hair Always Wins “Project Runway”

Kelli BenderApril 23, 2010 //

Season seven of “Project Runway” dealt its final “auf wiedersehen” this week. Seth Aaron out-styled Mila and Emilio, further proving my theory that the guy with the most alternative hair on the show has the best chances of winning. Think about it—Seth Aaron’s faux-hawk-punk-rock-side-burn hair thing looks strangely similar to season three winner Jeffrey’s do. Between season one winner Jay McCarroll’s creative hats and the crazy mane of season five’s Christian Siriano, my theory can basically be considered fact.

OK, that’s enough. Something that almost everyone can probably agree on is that Lifetime’s second attempt at hosting the show was much more successful and entertaining than the first. But still, it lacked that Bravo somethin’ somethin’. Keep reading »

4 Boots In 1 Actually Kind Of A Good Idea

Leonora EpsteinDecember 12, 2009 //

Know those convertible pants that become shorts just by unzipping the bottoms? In theory: good idea. In reality: ugly as hell. So it’s pretty amazing that Michael Kors has managed to take the same principle, stick it on a boot, and make it moderately stylish. Behold his new “Franny” style, which can be zipped up or unzipped to create four different length boots. You can rock the currently trendy thigh-high, and once it goes out of style (which it will), take off a level to get a classic calf-height. For everyday wear, unlatch all and skip around in a simple bootie.

While we’ve seen convertible shoes before, they haven’t offered quite as many options as Mr. Kors’ model. What do you think—would you get a lot of use out of these zipper boots? Or are they not your style? [HighSnobette] Keep reading »

The Queen Of Queens? Anna To Make Awkward Store Appearance

Zandile BlayAugust 18, 2009 //

So, we are already cringing at thoughts of Vogue editor and fashion royal Anna Wintour addressing the masses at Macy’s in the New York borough of Queens, of all places. The collision of these two worlds is guaranteed to be the stuff good reality shows are made of. (Too bad they’re no longer filming the soon-to-be released documentary “The September Issue.”) Wintour will be joined by designer and “Project Runway” host Michael Kors on September 10 at the department store, where the duo will be on hand to showcase fall trends and sign t-shirts for the first 50 folks in line. The appearance kicks off the city-wide launch of Fashion’s Night Out, a multi-day “shopping” event meant to jump-start fall retail sales across the country. [Racked]

Question is, will Wintour pull a Cintra Wilson and write about how disturbingly “middle-class” Macy’s is in her next editor’s letter? Only time will tell. Keep reading »
