He’s Ba-a-a-ck! Again!

September 22, 2007 by WendyB

Designer Todd Oldham has a new fashion project: creative director for Old Navy. Oldham’s been doing all kinds of things for years, ranging from costume design to floral design to home furnishings design. But whenever I see his name, I get nostalgic for his supermodel-filled runway shows in the ’90s. I feel the same nostalgia…

The Footwear Creeps in on Little Mouse Feet

September 20, 2007 by WendyB

Fasshonburu pointed out these mouse shoes by the late Marc Jacobs (he’s not really dead, just late, so please stop crying). I asked myself, “Self, would mouse feet make you happy?” But upon serious reflection, I realized that only fish feet will do. Alas. “Jaws Platform Pumps” aren’t going to appease me either. Fish or…

Marc Jacobs Made Anna Run for It!

September 10, 2007 by WendyB

Marc Jacobs started his show over two hours late. At least this time there was ventilation, so I didn’t sweat all over my Ossie Clark dress. Due to camera problems, I missed a good shot of Posh Beckham aka Victoria Spice. Fortunately, fashion reporter Cheryl Tan was willing to do her best Posh imitation. Cheryl,…

Zang With a Z

September 5, 2007 by WendyB

Tonight my husband and I saw Zang Toi‘s spring line at a fundraiser Zang held for the Lance Armstrong Foundation. We saw both singer Patti LaBelle and DJ drag queen Lady Bunny there. Who is the greater diva? I would have liked to see them wrestle for the title. Maybe next season! The theme for…
