  • Polls: Roberto Cavalli as Karl Lagerfeld for Halloween!
    Forget the celebs that are using Halloween as an opportunity to party hard in barely there outfits. Instead they should take a leaf out of Cavalli’s book and be innovative! Last night at his Halloween party at Ciprani’s NY, Cavalli showed he had a sense of humour and attended as Karl Lagerfeld. Hilarious! I’d love to know what Lagerfeld made of his choice in costume…..What...

  • Jennifer Connolly in Balenciaga
    More and more I’m warming to the idea that sooner rather than later seasonal dressing will be abolished.

If you want social justice,...
