    Kathy Ireland, I have a whole new respect for you. That is one of the most intelligent things I have heard in a long time and a great response to concern trolling.

    The Alaia bit is just dreadful. I used to work at a high-fashion, Middle Eastern mag and we profiled him for our premiere issue. It's not 80s fashion without him. What a ridiculous move on the part of the Met.


    Next time, I dunno, CHECK!

    Can I just say I kind of hate André Leon Talley. Putting aside what he did to J-Hud at the Oscars (which was horrible), he strikes me as one of those people who is using sheer stereotypical bullshit to get people to think he actually has something interesting to say.


    Just because you say the word fierce doesn't mean the following words will be anything insight, interesting or thought provoking. Just because you add "oh honey child" or some bullshit doesn't turn insipid commentary is insightful commentary.


    George Faye and Miss J also piss me off for the same reason.

    @Trulymadlyme: I find it ridiculous that "Miss J" teaches young women how they should mince down the catwalk in a parody of femininity. We will know the sexes are truly equal when we have a butch lesbian teach young men how to be more masculine on prime time television. Judging by his ghastly outfit at the Met, Andre Leon Talley has no business telling anyone how to dress stylishly.

    Koda's reasoning for not inviting Alaia stinks of bullshit. He just didn't think to ask him? I think I used that in 2nd grade when inviting girls to my birthday party.

    The story about Alaia makes me think that perhaps Harold Koda will be getting fired.... Bad move!

    @Liz11685: Doubtful. Decisions about his tenure are made by the museum world, not the fashion world. He and Andrew Bolton are very well respected with the museum world, and his exhibitions bring in lots of visitors to the Met. The Dangerous Liasons and Anglomania shows alone will bring him long term acclaim.


    You have to remember, the Met is used to dealing with putting on shows with artists who are dead (due to a policy of not putting on solo shows for living artists). It's rare that they have to deal with a reaction from a living artist. Also, the Met has a new director, who may not be ready to shake things up too much int he current climate.

    @hfree: But museums are also hemorrhaging money at the moment. If Koda's relationship with designers sours, how will he continue to curate the exhibits that bring in SO much business for the Met?

    Koda, Wintour: in a year when the Met is struggling, you certainly made a decision that capitalized the ass in assumption.

    above all else, madonna is the consummate businesswoman. if there's good money to be made with her and jesus in the ad, she'd wait until the campaign was over before publicly dumping him. it's only after the men have absolutely no career value to her that she removes them from her circle.

    Nice one on the Lacroix/AbFab reference. I bought a pair of Lacroix jeans years and years ago and from that day on, whenever I wear them, I hear Eddie in my head, going "La-Qua, sweetie." Awesome.

    I remember reading "Ball Four" by Jim Bouton that getting hit in the cup was referred to by ball players as "Ding Dong Bell", as it rhymes with "hell", and that's what it felt like. Who knew guys that regularly grab their crotches on TV and aren't known for their reticence would have such a cute code name for a shot to the nutsack? I wonder what they'd call a shot that shatters your cup and renders your scrotum useless.


    Wait, I guess I wandered in from Deadspin???

    Madge's shoes are the type of ferosha coutura shoes that I though Christian Siriano would make. Unfortunately he chose to bore us to death.

    but he tried to get a line through paylessShoes. payless decided to take his styles and run them through their yawn factory. what came out of that factory is the typical lukewarm payless look. i was looking forward to buying siriano's original looks!
