Women aren't the only ones who've suffered from Photoshop. Read More »

This poor model’s waist has been whittled away so much that her middle is now barely as wide as her head. That can’t be healthy — or even, well, possible, now can it? The hack Photoshop job is made all the more obvious because the back shot of the Vera Wang gown shows the model with correct un-’shopped proportions. Quite the difference, no? [Daily Mail UK]

Kim Kardashian’s divorce – after she donned three $25,000 white Vera Wang wedding gowns (at the wedding and on the covers of People and Us Weekly) –might explain why the famous designer announced a new line of ebony wedding dresses. I beat Wang’s hot trend years ago when this bride wore noir. It was the perfect shade for my late night Soho reception where my husband’s dad – a judge – officiated. I also picked the morbid marriage palette before “Sex in the City” actress Sarah Jessica Parker wore black to wed her real groom Matthew Broderick a year after me. Parker later told Harper’s Bazaar she felt like a bad bridal role model, and if she had it to do over, “I would white it up. I’d wear a beautiful, proper wedding dress, like I should have worn that day.” Keep reading »

Would You Get Married In A Vera Wang Wedding Gown?

Unless you’ve been living under a rock lately (or, OK, were maybe on summer vacation somewhere exotic, lucky) you know that Vera Wang has been the talk of the (fashion) town. Thanks to Chelsea Clinton‘s exquisite Wang-designed gown, and now Hilary Duff‘s supposed altar attire, Vera Wang is the it designer du jour for wedding couture. (Not like she was ever out of style; she’s always been a celebrity favorite, but Wang has been racking up tons of high-profile weddings this summer.) Keep reading »

Rachel Zoe Dies For Fashion

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 »

Vera Wang Goes Jersey

We are going to call this one “Snookie’s Wang”. Ms. Vera closed her show in New York with a ‘do that resembled the signature style of our favorite MTV train wreck. No offense to the South Jerz board-walkers, but this is one look we won’t be rocking if leaps off the runway. Keep reading »

Real Housewife Of Atlanta Headed To Fashion Week

NeNe Leakes may be in talks to get her own TV show (yawn), but she’s not the only one of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” milking the few last seconds of her fifteen minutes of fame. Sheree has completed her fashion line, She by Sheree, and plans to show it at New York Fashion Week next month. You may remember her first “fashion show” from last season, in which none of her fashions were actually shown, and instead Sheree leaned blown up pictures of her designs against the walls and hoped no one would notice they weren’t the real thing. No word yet on whether this collection is made with fabric or paper, but one thing’s for sure, Sheree can certainly afford the tens of thousands of dollars it takes to put on a show at Fashion Week. She’s taking her ex-husband, former New York Giant Bob Whitfield, back to court to get more than the initial $1 million she got in her divorce settlement. Designers like Betsey Johnson and Vera Wang aren’t showing collections in the tents this year, but Sheree is. Could this be the first sign we’re quickly moving into a Depression?

Quickies!: Fashion Shuns Bryant Park

  • Vera Wang, along with Betsey Johnson and Carmen Marc Valvo, has decided not to have a flashy fashion show at the Bryant Park tents during New York Fashion Week in February. We think this has less to do with being politically correct and more to do with financial security. [Perez Hilton]
  • A Pennsylvania couple was offended when a ShopRite refused to decorate their three-year-old son’s cake because his name is Adolf Hitler Campbell. Not surprisingly, money-grubbing Walmart took the order. [Dlisted]
  • NuvaRing users may have a greater risk of developing blood clots because of the type of progestin hormone used in the Ring. But only your doctor can tell you if you’re really at risk. [Dear Sugar]
  • Jodie Sweetin can only be with her 8-month-old daughter in her parents’ home or in the presence of her parents, a judge ruled on Wednesday after Sweetin’s estranged husband made substance abuse allegations. Let’s hope discussing her meth addiction didn’t make her long for the drug. [People.com]
  • It usually pays to be a nice girl this time of year, but sometimes it’s totally appropriate to be naughty. So feel free to put that flirty coworker in her place when she’s trying to get your man under the mistletoe. [Your Tango]
  • Men think that for women, sex is more emotional then physical, so any female indiscretion is cheating. Good thing they don’t know that sometimes we fantasize about other men while we’re having sex. [Asylum]
