Harvey Weinstein's Out To Get Nina Garcia, But In A Good Way
- "We'll get her," says Harvey Weinstein of ELLE's Nina Garcia (Weinstein) is being sued for breach of contract for taking Project Runway from Bravo to Lifetime. While Weinstein is probably the first person to say anything about wanting to continue to work with Garcia, we find his statement more creepy than encouraging. [WWD, 2nd item]
- "I am fine alone now, but not when I'll be 90," says Giorgio Armani of having a private equity firm get involved in his business. [WWD, 2nd item]
- "Buying vintage or revamping clothes and making things myself is my take on helping the environment." Oh bite me, Zooey Deschanel. [Fashion Week Daily]
- "I used to consider myself Italian, but now I feel very European." —Margherita Missoni. [Fashion Week Daily]

Zooey & Scarlett: Which Winsome Indie Starlet-Turned-Indie Songstress Do You Most Adore Or Abhor?
So, Scarlett Johansson's album of Tom Waits covers sounds like it's not going to be an abject failure. "Sounds to me like the work of someone who understands her limitations and is comfortable working within them," writes Pitchfork, and, oh yeah, a New York's Nick Catucci is declaring it the best album ever made by a carbon-based organism — "If we had to grade it on a rating system, we would give it one burning, elemental star, in honor of Scarlett Johansson herself" — in a way that conjures a guy pretending to cream his pants to cover up the fact that he already creamed his pants. Anyway, moving on, Zooey Deschanel, Scarjo's sister in indie-mainstream starlet-sweetheartitude, is also putting out some new album right now, only she actually writes her songs and regularly allows such profundities to escape from her mouth as ""I like the way people react when you bake, which is, like, just pure childlike joy." Apparently her music is a cross between Jenny Lewis and Carly Simon and sunshine and a handknit dog sweater. More »

- Oooh and Fran Lebowitz will emcee the awards themselves on June 2. [Fashion Week Daily]
- Ok, so now Waris Dirie is saying she was abducted and assaulted while she was missing in Brussels. And treated like "prostitute" by police. She originally said she was just, like, lost. Her manager says she was in shock. [Telegraph, Yahoo]
- And what is Erin Fetherston's latest short film about? "Zooey [Deschanel] plays a tramp who eats a magic mushroom and finds herself with a group of fairies." Of course she does. [Fashion Week Daily]
- Whoah is Posh going to guest-design for Roland Mouret? Whoah. [Fashionista]

Mary-Kate Olsen To Emerge From Hole For Fashion
- M-K Olsen is supposedly venturing out of her Salinger-esque hiding to attend the Giambattista Valli show today. [Fashion Week Daily]
- Too bad, because also in MK news: she is writing a book! With Ashley, about (what else?!) her inimitable style. We assume this means she'll also go on the road promoting it, as opposed to hiding it away to be unearthed at her death with her bottles of pills and thousands of empty Venti Starbucks cups. [Sassybella]
- Meanwhile, Giambattista Valli is a fan of Obama. [Fashion Week Daily]
- Erin Fetherston: The movie. Starring Zooey Deschanel and Kirsten Dunst. Based on Romeo & Juliet. We're, er, skeptical. [Nylon]
- Designer logos made with cocaine. [NY Mag]

The Unbearable Quirkiness of the Unstoppable Charm Of Zooey Deschanel
At the beginning of this month's Jane cover profile 'The Unstoppable Charm of Zooey Deschanel', writer Shelly Ridenour finds herself with the actress at a farmer's market. It's crowded, cluttered with street musicians and "family-run cheesy" but it's also "shiny" and "fresh" and "a little bit too predictable." Sort of, we might venture to say, like Zooey Deschanel, whose stubborn quirkiness is starting to make us wish she'd find a narcotic to abuse. But gosh! Such a cute dresser! (Seriously!) After the jump, all the actress' quirky attributes as pounded into our heads by Jane magazine. More »
