• Tom Ford, a man who immobilized his forehead with Botox, thinks people should go naked. Especially, well... "Fat women almost always look better without the constraint and lumpy pinching of clothes, all the straps and elastic squeezing and sucking." [ContactMusic]

• Katy Perry, shot by Alexi Lubomirski for the subscriber cover of the new Harper's Bazaar, looks gorgeous, if a bit crusty-lipped. She also looks a lot like Jean Patchett on the iconic Erwin Blumenfeld Vogue cover from January, 1950. [JustJared]

• Detmar Blow and Tom Sykes are trading jibes with Lauren Goldstein Crowe over their dueling Isabella Blow biographies, both of which hit U.S. bookstore stores this week. Everyone is sniping at everyone over the email, sometimes in ALLCAPS!!!

• There is a surfeit of Kardashian-reated news this morning! The Sisters K have, variously, a newly opened store, a broken toe, a Christian Louboutin reaction quote regarding said injured digit, and a new credit card with their faces on it:

• Madonna thought the legendary photographer was angry at her, maybe "because I'm still nice to Herb Ritts??" She was making A League Of Their Own at the time, and wrote about how much she hated actresses — particularly Geena Davis:

• "A reliable source" tells UnBeige that "Nike is cooking up a major collaboration" with Alexander Wang. [@Unbeige]

• Courtney Love hired Michael Mouris to create a short animated video about her life. Karl Lagerfeld comes to her and tells her she is "drowning in the kook," like a Teutonic fairy godmother of style. It is awesome. [WWD]

• Orlando Bloom and Charlize Theron are the new faces of Uniqlo. Bloom is practically as adept in front of the camera as his wife, while Theron drives an old Citroen and looks attractively wistful in her video. [Nicola Formichetti]

Paper editor Kim Hastreiter and incoming T editor Sally Singer dance around a key question in this long, fairly insightful conversation: Is it really possible to be a smart person and like fashion?

• "Sources" are saying that Kimora Lee Simmons didn't leave Baby Phat, the fashion line she founded — she was fired. Allegedly, she was kicked out for being too spendthrift. For example: "It costs thousands of dollars to airbrush her."

• Before testifying at Charles Taylor's trial, Naomi Campbell has demanded accommodations normally extended to victims of atrocities. She wants the media to not film or photograph her, and she wants a lawyer to speak for her on the stand.

• Julianne Moore is returning as the face of Bulgari for fall. With baby lions. Baby lions that make it very difficult to even think about the handbags. Baby lions! Lion babies! [Frockwriter]

• Monica Bellucci, who gave birth just six weeks ago, Domenico Dolce, and Stefano Gabbana shot a La Dolce Vita-themed Martini Gold ad together in Rome. Stefano tweeted the whole thing. [Daily Mail, WWD]

• Is Lady Gaga getting her butch on modeling for Vogue Hommes Japan under the pseudonym "Jo Calderone"? Nicola Formichetti styled — he works with Gaga regularly — and Nick Knight — ditto — published the pictures online. So. [ONTD]

• Megan Fox may have been replaced by an underwear model in the next Transformers movie, but she plays one pretty well in this latest campaign for Armani Exchange. Trading places is all the rage for fall. [Fox]

• Here is Marc Jacobs and his new men's perfume. It's like Tom Ford and Juergen Teller had a meeting, and this is what they came up with. "We tried it with clothes, but it didn't work," claims Jacobs. [WWD]

• Drew Barrymore would like to apologize to Gucci for wearing that dress to the 2006 Golden Globes. "I felt so bad. I was like, 'I'm so sorry, Gucci. I have tarnished your name.'" [ContactMusic]

"In 1978 in Nairobi, I got this bag," said New Yorker writer Judith Thurman. "I got it because it was Annie Hall's bag." What is it about the title character of Woody Allen's romantic comedy classic that continues to captivate?

If you've opened a women's magazine recently, then you probably know what's in this season. "Investment" fashion!
