    This makes me sad, because from what I've heard (briefly) Christian Lacroix is a pretty nice guy. An acquaintance once told me about Lacroix inviting a young boy with a passion for fashion from a Make-a-Wish-like foundation to his atelier, showing him around, and giving him a few sketches to take home. This is secondhand news, but still - aw.

    Whoever your mom is, people won't give you hundreds of thousands of dollars," says Vladimir Restoin Roitfeld...

    Let's all just take a moment and appreciate the awesomeness lightly buried in that statement and the fact that, for once, we're not talking about a patriarch. WOMEN FTW.

    In reply to Banana Republic Partners With Mad Men; Watch & Learn With Chanel Couture
    I think Madmen is to some degree diluting their brand by partnering with Banana Republic. I like the clothes style too, but it's a little too Disney or Harry Potter Warner Bros marketing for me. Buy products which allow you to live in your fictional fantasy world! In the NYT piece they also refer to a Madmen inspired NYC trip. I love Madmen. The world is presents, however, is meant to be criticized, not emulated. Do the racist and misogynist attitudes come all inclusive in this travel package?

    Ladies, BR is owned by Gap Inc, and you know how Gap feels about their higher-end brands and ladies of the curvaceous persuasion. They'd NEVER do Joan dresses-- they can't even get curvy jeans right, why would they attempt dresses that curve in multiple places?

    @Ipomoea is a joyful girl: It's funny; I consider myself "curvy" and Banana Republic fits me much better than Gap. I think that the tailoring helps me out and the flimsy nature of the Gap only highlights any "flaws" rather than highlighting assets.

    The Chanel video was fascinating. I'd definitely watch a documentary about the formation of a dress from beginning to end (formation of fabric to runway).

    Someone needs to give Mr. Timberlake and Charles W. Givenchy or whoever is in charge over there a lesson on adverbs. It's play intensely. No wonder kids nowadays all write like Carrie Prejean.

    @NellMood: I seem to recall reading (right here on Jezebel, my source of pretty much all information most days!) that some designer was doing a Joan-inspired line -- but then, that was a designer, not someone who might produce clothes that I might be able to afford. Not that BR is often in that category, but, you know, it's at least within shouting distance.

    @NellMood: Two great sources for Joan dresses (of which I have wayyyy too many) are eBay and www.kittygirlvintage.com. The trick is to go by the "flat measurements" of the dress, which is just as it sounds, laying the dress flat and measuring the waist, hips and bust (armpit-to-armpit). And it is easy to find larger sizes as well. Just search for "Bombshell wiggle dress vintage" and blam! tons will appear. Also, Stop Staring! makes Joan-esque dresses. Yes, I have an online vintage shopping problem that should have landed me on Intervention a while ago.
