    since when do germans know anything about fashion? I mean their hipsters are awesome. But remind me the last time anyone cared about Berlin Fashion week?


    AUF! Heidi's beyond perfection.

    @zapatosnuevos: Actually, I don't think they've done too badly. Jil Sander, Escada, Hugo Boss, not to mention, of course, Kaiser Karl - they're pretty well-known names.

    Joop! is one of my favourite scents ever.


    This clownshoe, however, is making me lean towards getting over my obsession and voting with my dollars AGAINST him.

    "25 garment workers who were required to work over 80 hours a week and only intermittently paid the princely sum of $3 an hour won their lawsuit against their former employers, New York's Liberty Apparel"


    Anyone? This is in New York? Seriously dudes, thats fucked up. What is the minimum wage there? 3 bucks? 80 hours, holy shit-i am so fucking lazy. This should be its own story, isnt this news? Is this normal for New York? What does this say about american apparel?

    That said, Germany's Next Top Model has produced some very gorgeous ladies.


    Season 1 winner, Lena Gercke.


    Season 2 winner (and my favorite) Barbara Meier.


    And I can't remember season three for the life of me because I didn't watch it.

    If by "commercial," he means people like her and want to buy things she models/sells, then yeah. Suck it.

    I thought that said Rachel Ray's fashion collection, and I thought for a second that we had hit a new low.

    Poor Benjamin Cho. He waited until after the inauguration to weigh on Michelle Obama's outfits for the inauguration. I guess he didn't get the invitation and now he's late to the party.


    No, really, in truth. Why are we ragging on a DESIGNER commenting on her clothes, when we did that for MONTHS?

    I think what Wolfgang Joop was trying to say is that catwalk models are the skinniest of the skinnies, have no bust (so the clothes hang off them) and are meant to have dour expressions so as not to take the focus off the designs. Heidi Klum has always appealed to the Victoria's Secret/Sports Illustrated swimsuit market, which is very different, and that's why she has always been most popular in the US.

    Being a fashion figure, however, Joop is unable to express this in a non-bitchy manner, so he makes it very difficult to defend him...so I won't.

    @andromache dreams in Clive Owenvision: Years ago I saw Eddie Izzard during his Sexie tour, and for the first half he wore this AMAZING, electric-blue coat. My friend and I were totally lusting after it.
