Meet The Designers? Um, No Thanks

Sadie Stein — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 10:30:00 EDT

Fashion Group International of Los Angeles' 'Meet The Designers' at the Standard Hotel was, it must be said, a train-wreck. I wish these designers would show up on Project Runway to hear Michael take on these monstrous getups. More »

When Stars Go Green, Fashion Suffers

Jennifer — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 10:30:00 EST

The hoopla surrounding this Sunday's Academy Awards has officially begun! Last night's Oscars Pre-Party, held by environmental nonprofit Global Green USA, saw a slew of celebs who obviously had the environment, not style, on their minds (Not that that's a bad thing.) Case in point: Molly Sims. And while very pregnant Elisabeth Rohm and the always pulled-together Sophia Bush managed to dazzle, Radha Mitchell, Josie Maran, Samantha Harris and even Salma Hayek struck out big time.

While Ricki looked chic and svelte in a black sheath (left), her guests looked a little...oy. The good, the bad, and the ugly, all after the jump. More »

A star is born? Halston has at last named its new creative director (and it's not Harvey Weinstein GF Georgina Chapman), Versace senior women's and men's designer Marco Zanini. Good luck, buddy. May the ghosts of Roy and Jackie O bless your journey. [WWD, sub req'd]
