Oh, Mandie... Something very interesting in the Page Six Magazine profile of Mandie Erickson was pointed out to us. In discussing her glamorous childhood — for most of which it seems her mother was unable to get a sitter — Mandie said, "My mom took me everywhere. I'd fall asleep backstage at Galliano fashion shows back in the day. She'd take me with her to Studio 54—I was sleeping in Steve Rubell and Ian Schrager's office. I was 2." Observant commenter Pinkplatinum notes that Galliano hasn't been around that long. In fact, he's only 14 years older than Mandie! After graduating from design school in 1984, he was a modest success in his native UK, and didn't really have an international reputation until the early '90s in Paris, when Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell walked in a show for him as a friendly favor, instead of for cash. That would mean Mandie would have been falling asleep backstage at his shows in her early teens, which, if true, is actually just plain rude.

Mandie Erickson Designs Clothes But Doesn't Want Us To Know About It

Remember Mandie Erickson, the PR mentor/reality show villain/cunt face from The Fashionista Diaries? Well, apparently her talents are not limited to being horrible at interpersonal communication while working in public relations and making others feel bad about themselves as a way to mask her own insecurity. She also designs clothes! We're probably like the only people in the world obsessed with her, so we were so pissed at ourselves for not knowing about this earlier. Howevs, keeping her clothing line a secret was all part of her master plan. In an interview with Grandlife, she said:
Only a few people know about it. I'm really embarrassed when I'm with someone wearing a dress, and everyone knows where it's from. All of a sudden with fashion, you can go to H&M, and fashion savvy people hone in on the same pieces.
Wow, people must be beating down her door to hire her as a publicist with that unique "don't get the word out there" strategy she has. After the jump, photos of her line. More »

'The Fashionista Diaries': Mandie Erickson, We Miss You Already


Last night was the finale of The Fashionista Diaries. Of the six kids, only two — Rachel and Janjay — were offered permanent positions at their jobs. But we were happiest for Laurie, the Seventh House assistant who was told to stop eating by Social Life magazine editor Devora Rose, and to stop wearing Gucci mules by Mandie "Cunt Face" Erickson. Why? Because she learned to just laugh off Mandie's cuntiness. It appeared that CF was prepared to offer both Bridget and Laurie jobs at Seventh House, but both girls didn't want to work with her. LOL! Anyway, to be completely honest, we are going to miss watching CF each week. Now we're going to have to stalk her in real life. JK! More »

Latest by SkitzoLeezra: I sent the following e-mail to Mandie the CF: "Dear Weasel Teeth,Your insecurity reveals a girl that was never accepted by the cool crowd and I can certainly understand why, what with your horrible manners and meth damaged teeth."

'The Fashionista Diaries': Whites Learn That Blacks Get Darker When Exposed To Sunlight

On last night's episode of The Fashionista Diaries, the kids spent the weekend in the Hamptons, and we got to see more of Connecticut-native Tina's cultural experience with African Americans. She didn't know that black people could get darker in the sun, and apparently didn't know that they'd be interested in non-black people, sexually. We can't wait for next week, when we get to see Mandie in action again. It was a little dull without her around. Oh, and if you'd like to see a picture of her clutching a baby, click here (scroll down). More »

'The Fashionista Diaries': Mandie Erickson Is Still Acting All Cunty


Sometimes we feel bad that we continually call Seventh House PR "mentor" Mandie Erickson a "Cunt Face" — until we watch the show another week and she continues to behave like one. Seriously, the bitch does not let up! Unfortch, there was no blow up from Laurie over the Gucci shoe incident from last week. We don't know what happened with that. But CF moved on from criticizing the girls' shoes to the criticizing the girls' dresses. Apparently, she doesn't like prints! We've never seen her in anything but black dresses. Unflattering black dresses. Tim Gunn would not approve of her hemlines. More »

Mandie "Cunt Face" Erickson: To Know Her Is To Loathe Her

Ever since we began our coverage of The Fashionista Diaries and our obsession with Seventh House's Mandie "Cunt Face" Erickson, we've gotten quite a few emails and tips from readers who know her personally and really fucking hate her guts. Like a lot. One reader, who referred to CF as "evil and disgusting," told us that the term "Mandie Erickson" is part of the vernacular of PR types in NYC, as in: "Oh my God, she was like, Mandie Erickson bad." Someone else mentioned that CF "stares through" people if she doesn't need them for something. Another reader gave us some of the juiciest goss on her yet! More »

The Fashionista Diaries' Mandie 'Cunt Face' Erickson: Before She Was Famous

A very awesome reader pointed us in the direction of this photo of The Fashionista Diaries' Mandie "Cunt Face" Erickson from back in the day (way back—before Natasha's junkie, scabby face looked like a connect-the-dots puzzle), and suggests that perhaps CF's raspy voice was brought on by smoking crack with Natasha Lyonne. Well, we don't know about that, but we do know about CF's Amazon Wish List. Maybe we can all chip in for Unhooked: How Young Women Pursue Sex, Delay Love, And Lose At Both.
