    In reply to Lady Gaga Loves Human Hair; Marc Jacobs Doesn't Mind The Knock-Offs
    Coach has no chance. U.S. copyright law does not protect useful articles, and copyright protection has been denied to fashion designs because clothing garments have traditionally been viewed as useful articles—basic items of necessity having utilitarian value—rather than as artistic creations. Unless they are infringing on the trademark by causing consumer confusion (i.e. putting "coach" or the like on the purses), the design itself is not protectable and there is no lawsuit.

    At least, that's what my memory of IP law in law school tells me...

    Now that Lady Gaga is taking style tips from Ed Gein and Jame Gumb, I'm looking forward to the belt of shrunken heads she has planned for the next awards show.

    You know, I really think someone should hook up Gaga and Chris March.

    I think they could really have something special, as she would be the perfect person to wear some of his zanier pieces.

    Nina Garcia's books are so charming. She offers a lot of solid advice. In the latest, she talks a lot about vintage/consignment shops and tailoring/mending and editing your wardrobe, and gives an extensive resource list that includes all her favorite Web sites. She's as down-to-earth as she is fabulous. And all three of her books are beautifully illustrated by Ruben Toledo. I'm a big fan. :)

    33-24-35 IS curvy. It's an hour-glass shape. Why is "curvy" a euphemism for fat? I really hate that. Plenty of smaller women have curves. Plenty of larger women do not. Shape does not relate directly to size! And isn't that shape sort of a rarity in the modeling world lately? I mean I can't say I'd know, but most of the models I've noticed have tended to be pretty straight up and down

    @colormeroutine: Yeah except that the whole point is the aforementioned lazy writers have completely co-opted the word "curvy" to mean thick or not of model proportions. So when they try to call Lara Stone curvy, the rest of us call bullshit.

    What's so hard to understand, Georgia May? Your father is a famous rock star and your mother is a well-known model, so they always got plenty of media attention. They had a tumultuous relationship, so, again, they got plenty of media attention. You are their daughter and you've decided to enter the same industry as your mother, so now you get plenty of media attention. See, it's not so hard to understand, is it?

    Yes, Tom Ford. I was trying to smell you. I'm not sorry, either.

    Oh and this: I'm a little sad about Halston's reported troubles. I'm not sure why but when I was little I associated the label with the absolute height of fashion and wanted their dresses to wear at les discotheques. I was probably seven or so. Plus, they made that signature perfume and my favorite aunt wore it and to this day I love that smell.

    I think Lara Stone is curvy. But, I think of curvy as....having curves, not being large or small.

    Zara....THANK YOU!

    Let's hope the parents continue to give their teens less money after the recession is over, so they have some to give them for college.

    @angryblackgurl: I concur. Everybody, and I mean everybody in my family used her products when I was a little girl. My great-aunt Edna wore one of her wigs after she lost her hair during her chemo treatments for her breast cancer. And it was so great to have makeup to play with as a little dark-skinned black girl.
    Peace be with her family at this time.
