Jersey Shore’s first season is over and JWOWW isn’t about to let that little oompa loompa Snookie get all the attention! She’s going to be “reinventing sexy sophisticated” with her signature skank tank tops — you know, the ones that offer that oh-so-slutty draping so that you too can shake your booty at the club with your twins in full view. JWOWW’s official website now offers a clothing line section in which she’s selling the skankalicious pieces of fabric (we hesitate to refer to them as actually clothing given how little fabric is used. Hey, at least she’s being green). Jenni also offers her fans the opportunity to be the models on her site. That’s right, if you buy the shirt, take a photo of yourself wearing it and send it to JWOWW. You might just be the next ho-bag featured!
Late last week, photos of two designer collaborations surfaced. We got a look at both Zac Posen and Jean Paul Gaultier for Target. The JPG line surfaced via a blurry cell phone picture (it’s from the newest issue of Elle), the Posen lookbook can be found on Fashionista. I’ve got my eye on the red Posen minidress.
Erin Wasson keeps out-hipstering the hipsters. Last season, she showed at the tents at Bryant Park because clearly, being hipster and showing at Milk was soo last year. Now, she’s one-upping herself and heading to ABC Carpet and Home — because it’s super-hipster to use thousand dollar Persian carpets as your runway.
The fashion industry isn’t totally heartless. Fashion Delivers, a relief charitable foundation that distributes excess clothing to folks all over the globe, has issued a call for clothes for the people devastated by the earthquake in Haiti. To donate, click here. Eco-friendly/LEED certified Brooklyn retailer Bird has already pledged to donate clothes on sale.
Ke$ha might just be the greenest pop star we know. Instead of purchasing high fashion pieces, she goes dumpster diving. Yes, that’s right, she recently told WWD, “my favorite stuff that I’ve ever found has been from trash cans. And I bought this incredible vest off a homeless guy recently.” Hey, at least she’s recycling!
Alexa Chung is set to design a collection for J.Crew’s little sister, Madewell. Chung, who undoubtedly has been approached for numerous collaborations, said she chose Madewell because they were “undesperate and organic.” Chung says she’ll be bringing back forties tea dresses. I say bring it on.
Speaking of Brits, the first photos of Kate Moss's collaboration with Longchamp have surfaced. I love Kate just as much as the next girl, but these are B-O-R-I-N-G.
I’m loving Caitlin Mociun’s print-heavy line Mociun (pronounced “motion”) — it’s all eco-friendly, and Brooklyn-based Mociun is a textile artist turned designer, which means all of her fabrics are 100% original.
The Olsens will finally be showing at Fashion Week. They’re set to show their collection The Row next month. Location has yet to be decided — a Chelsea gallery, perhaps?
Kelly Cutrone’s doing press for her new Bravo show, Kell on Earth, which premieres February 1st (set your DVR now). She’s also got a self-help book coming out, entitled, If You Have to Cry, Go Outside (already on pre-order at the NYPL…please, like I purchase books when I can be green and borrow them?). Anywho, Kelly offers up her thoughts on makeup (looks bad on her), the Sex and the City girls (not good role models) and interns (better not be spoiled).
