Jesus, Missoni or no Missoni, this isn’t a dress. It’s a mess. Let this be a lesson to all those of the petite persuasion–too much material will leave you looking all latitude, no longitude.
Yikes!

A couple of things:
1. Marc Jacobs is in the new issue of GQ.
2. He doesn’t get why people are so hot and cold for him:
Why is there this division all of a sudden between people in support of me and people against me? How did this happen? I haven’t done anything to anybody! I look at Karl Lagerfeld and John Galliano—everybody has their shtick. And just because this wasn’t my shtick two years ago, it’s a problem
Yeah, but Galliano doesn’t have a Spongebob tattoo.
3. He doesn’t think he’s going through a midlife crisis.
4. He prefers Wheat Thins and Marlboro Lights.
5. He doesn’t consume flour, dairy, sugar, or caffeine, but smokes five packs a day. I hope that’s an exaggeration.
6. Marc’s personal trainer is named “Easy,” and he wants to beat up the old, fat Marc Jacobs.
7. His sexlife is the exact same that it’s always been:
“I’m still the same person. My sex life, my sexual interests, my libido, are exactly the same as they always were. It hasn’t changed my wiring or my instincts.”
8. He’s likes being a sexpot:
“It’s like saying, ‘I want to look hot.’ That is such a dumb thing to say….But what’s so cool about it is that you can say it. Yeah, I want a bunch of muscle queens at David Barton Gym to think that my body looks dope. And I might think that was an awkward and dumb thing to say, but I still like that I’ll throw it out there.”
Well then. Sounds like a charmed life.

Everyday it’s something new with this one.
On Monday, it was all over the internet that Nina Garcia was outsky as Fashion Director of Elle magazine, having been dumped on Friday. Rumor had it that, as a result of her role on Project Runway and her book deals and advertising Blackberrys, she was generally missing in action at the Elle offices, leaving all the work to her assistants. Doesn’t that just sound sooooo Nina?
Then, Tuesday, news broke that she was invited to be an Editor-at-Large for the mag, but it seems that that was just a nicety since the job was only offered as a 6-month stint, and it looks like it’s just to get her through another season of PR–Elle, of course, sponsors the show.
At the moment, nobody knows what Nina’s gonna do. If I were her, I’d take the title and the money.
