THERRY-THIERRY-THIERRY


Well, whatever makes him happy and wanting to share it with the world, I guess. And no shoulder pads needed. I recall, though, TM has always been a major player on the gay scene. So, not very much new here. Only that the emperor has no clothes.

Read( and see) more on WOW

AND THE AWARD GOES TO.. YAWN.. YAWN

The CFDA awards were given out last night to a lot of surprising recipients. NOT. How many awards does Ralph Lauren have? And Oscar de la Renta? And does Bono need ANY awards? Give me a break. What a sad state of self-aggrandizing delusion! Firstly, give the money to those who need it, not to those who have a lot of it. Secondly, reward emerging, fresh talent. Thirdly, make Oprah come on time, if you dare.

Watch the last year's freak show

NOTHING LIKE A CHEAP LAUGH



Sad to see such bad sandbagging. Tactless and almost nobody laughed. I think MTV is dead.

FASHION EDITORIALS ARE A DRAG

Just a thought. What's up with all this so-and-so celebrity made up as another, Cruz as Monroe, and so on. Fashion editors must be braindead to do this over and over. How about Cruz as Cruz (and so on). Why do we have to put up with recycling of what shouldn't be re-used? Or gone are the days when originality was a virtue? I am just saying...

THE FASHION MAFIA EXPOSED

Finally somebody said it. In this thoughtful ARTICLE Michael Vollbracht, who has just resigned as the creative director of Bill Blass, decries the current state of fashion as an industry controlled by the mafia of stylists and PR functionaries. True! True! True!

LEAVE THE GROOVY IN ITS GRAVE, SIMON!!


I guess girls (and boys) don't love Marc Jacobs anymore. It's green now. The billboard at the intersection of 7th Ave and Greenwich that had forever professed the undying love for MJ now has the awfully cheeky "green is groovy" slogan.
Which of the daring doers will tell their diminutive boss SIMON DOONAN of BARNEYS that groovy isn't groovy anymore. Time to find a new token of wit. Perhaps, something like "awesome" or "dope".

ON THE RADAR

I must say the new RADAR is a good, entretainin read. I just wish there were no weekends because they don't add anything new on those days. PEREZ HILTON get's quite a beating every now and then. I am sure it's his kind of sex game anyway.

NOT SO ROSIE


The tempest that was the View will be no more. Frankly, as entretaining as she is, Rosie is not an easy person. She is pushy. She is bossy. She is rude. Unlike that fool Donald. Well, he is just plain vulgar. But Rosie is a more coherent talker. She will never be LEZ Misirable, you know. But there is a ton of insecurity underneath that thick loud layer of pride. So she does get hurt. And she doesn't forget. Mark my word!
ROSIE

I CAN'T AFFORD TOM FORD

Tom Ford proves that there is life after Gucci by opening his own store o the very Upper East Side, near the American classic mansion of Ralph Lauren. Read this awesomely funny GAWKER POSTING.
I predict that the luxury market will have to crash sooner or later. So very few can afford or wear the fancy things now and I don't see them building factories that produce one dress a year. So, mark my words, the underdressed underclass will break down those magnificent doors and will tear the overtailord suits and such to shreds. And make a big communal nest in Central Park.

KARL LAGERFOOL GOES CRUISING

Not another "jet set" collection, PLEASE! Although he is a brilliant dresser and a witty pretentenista, Karl Lagerfeld "previewed" his cruise line in LA on May 18. That's very appropriate for him to do a cruise line since he never takes off his sunglasses, as if on a life-long cruise. Now make it cheap and the masses, who can't afford flying around, will buy it, like they did Kate Moss.

UPDATE: New York DAYLY NEWSrelates Claudia Schiffer's astonishment at the fact that KL can , while not drinking or doing drugs, be so active. WHAT? And I am the King of Prussia. I wonder where he gets the energy to trot the globe like a Tasmanian Devil.

FASHION KILLS



NOTE to Anna Wintour: If botox injections don't kill you, PETER BROUNSTEIN will try. But he would have to get in line with all her former and current terrorized assistants. Because he was given only one ticket to a Vogue awards show and didn't take it lying down, he lost his job at WWD. See what I mean? I just picture it: Satan, in a techno gabardine suit, making out with Anna, in a Topshop by Kate Moss. What am I going to do with all this resentment?

A WELL DRESSED MAN WITH THE DISPOSABLE CAMERA


I read fashion magazines reluctantly, as I am easily overcome with repulsion for their fluffy pretense of opinion. My absolute favorite is Vogue, of course. Style.com, to be precise. And there is nobody like The Sartorialist's Scott Schuman. His latest trip was to Stockholm and he came back with this flavorless report. Odin only knows what came first, the picture or the caption? Was this "captionista" drinking Svedka day and night? Bland doesn't necessarily mean clever. Read for yourself.
Here's my CAPTIONISTA

PRINCE OF WHALES



Andre Leon Talley and his frocks!! Think ingénue coquette (sic!) bathed in a Chanel aftershave. I actually see him more in the Channel than in Chanel. But that would trigger the other New Wave: Big and Talley. Objectifying a bit, does Anna, the fabulous Anna, have a loveable portable pet toumor that she drapes and goggles at large?

OPEN for FASHION BASHING



Oh, looking so beautiful! Where did you buy that? Is this new? WHAT THE FUCK? WHO TALKS LIKE THAT? WHO SPENDS A MONTH's PAY ON A BELT?
There is plenty of air-kissing on the web already. So I am looking for some clear heads who like to look right (hmmmmm) and know when they see tooooo much effort.
I want to hear your horror stories, your unbelivable run-ins with "fashionistas" of all kinds.
If you feel confident in it, wear it. Bullshit!!!!!!! My opinion is that one's confidence is in serious question if looking rediculous comes easy to them and they want to be photographed being in that delusional state.
Death to fashion! Long live style!
