Rachel Zoe's Dreams Were Filled With Karolina Kurkova Cream!

Or rather, Rachel's dreams were filled with visions of Karolina Kurkova's GLOWING golden Met Gala backless gown weeks before its debut!

Rachel Zoe recently expressed:

“I spent a lot of nights dreaming about what I wanted it to look like… [but the headdress] happened literally the day before [I thought] ‘What can I add to really take it to the next level?’ So we made the turban-slash-head-wrap to give it that deco-glamour that [Elsa] Schiaparelli was so known for.”

Rachel also gushed how Karolina was like, the best human coat hanger, ever:

“Obviously when you put something on Karolina, it’s even better because it’s on Karolina.”

Truth! Plus, if Karolina didn't make the golden material gloriously shine, she wouldn't be a very good model, now would she!

We are UBER impressed at Zoe's en-pointe design skills…

Filed Under: Fashion Smashion Inspiration Kim Kardashian Khloe Kardashian Kourtney Kardashian

Wanna stop bullying? Why not wear a hoodie??

Elana Brynes designed the above hoodie to send a message bullies.

On the back of the zip-up jacket, she's added a palm print with the words, "BYE HATER," which has caught the eye of the Kardashians (who are now selling the piece in their DASH boutiques), Carson Kressley and even some of the New Jersey Housewives.

Parsons Celebrates Fashion Icon Donna Karan

Filed Under: Fashion Smashion Etc. Donna Karan

Parsons The New School of Design honored Famous alumni Shelia C. Johnson and legendary fashion designer Donna Karan at a celebration held in NYC Tuesday evening.

Parsons' executive dean Joel Towers explained:

“[they are both] women who have risen to the top of their chosen fields and have shaped contemporary culture.”

Donna never technically graduated from Parsons - she failed drapery class - but that minor detail has not deterred Parsons from giving honor where honor is due.

Congrats to you both!

JPG On Amy Winehouse: 'I Love Everything About Her'

Filed Under: Amy Winehouse Jean Paul Gaultier

Amy Winehouse Runway Jean Paul

Jean Paul Gaultier is finally speaking out about his spring haute couture collection Amy Winehouse-inspired haute couture collection.

This past weekend, JPG confessed:

"I was surprised when she died that no one in fashion made an homage to her. Her look was fabulous, fantastic - it was unique. Usually, actresses and singers need fashion advice. She naturally had the right make-up, the right earrings - it was a truly a style. She didn't just pick up one part of that look. And I love her voice, I love everything about her."

So true!

We LOVED the designs and thought it was a great way of paying homage to Amy, even if her father didn't think so!
