Deets on the Diane von Furstenberg comic book! "With 'Be the Wonder Woman You Can Be, Featuring the Adventures of Diva, Viva & Fifa,' the new comic book she authored, she doesn’t just turn herself into a bonafide superheroine, but offers inspiring tales about women and the life-empowering choices they face — all with illustrations by artist Konstantin Kakanias."

Fashion Victims: Paris Couture Week Brings Out The Megafans In France

Sadie Stein — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 10:30:00 EDT

When you think about it, going to a fashion show dressed head-to-toe in that designer's work is like going to a Yankee game in full pinstripes. Read: kinda lame. When you think about it even more, going to another continent to watch some women in conceptual clothing walk down a catwalk for fifteen minutes is weird, too. But hey, the rich are different from you and me! And as evidenced by the getups after the jump, the shows of Paris Couture week are a great excuse to wear some rad outfits without the pressures of The Carpet. Click through to see the fashions of Liv Tyler, Eva Mendes, Anna Wintour, Patricia Arquette, Helen Mirren and Wonder Woman herself, Lynda Carter. More »

It's Hard Out There For A Heroine

Jessica — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 09:30:00 EST

Ms. Simone sees WW as a second-wave heroine, someone who stood for the burgeoning feminist movement in the 70, saying that the character is "just the best kind of person... She was a princess who didn't need someone to rescue her. I grew up in an era — and a family — where women's rights were very important, and the guys didn't tend to stick around too long. She was an amazing role model." More »

Last week we posted a clip from former-Wonder Woman Lynda Carter's variety show (in which she wears Bob Mackie costume and sings a Kiss song), saying that we miss the genre and wish it would return. Well, some fairy queen has made our gay dream come true: Lynda will be opening her week-long Cabaret show in NYC tomorrow! She'll sing old-school musical numbers as well as James Taylor and Willie Nelson songs. There was no mention of whether she'll be back in Mackie, but we'll keep our fingers crossed. [NY Post] More »

Dear Paparazzi, We Do Not Know What Our Childhood Heroine Did To Warrant Your Stalkage

But thanks for the reminder of how gracefully we will NEVER grow old! Does Proactiv or Pearl Cream or whatever the fuck she infomercializes while we're cruising for phone sex ads actually work? Or does she actually have magical powers?
