Another Reason Not To Buy Uggs: Foot Fungus?

Posted: 05 Jan 2011 03:17 PM PST

Just in case you needed another reason not to purchase Uggs there’s this: they increase your risk of foot fungus.

At least that’s what one podiatrist is claiming. Dr. Olivier Zong, DPM, the director of surgery at NYC Footcare, says that “fungus breeds in dark, wet environments–conditions that are usually seen inside trendy sheepskin boots.” Whats more, Dr. Zong says that once the fungus gets into your toe nails it’s hard to get rid of. Fun!

Luckily for Ugg-fans the world over, not all podiatrists are in agreement about whether Uggs put their wearers at increased risk for foot fungus.

Posted: 05 Jan 2011 01:56 PM PST

Tumblr, the image-heavy platform beloved by top fashion bloggers like Tavi Gevinson and Jessica Quirk (What I Wore), is focusing more of its energy on the fashion industry.

In fact, it’s sending more than 20 of its bloggers to New York Fashion Week. Participating Tumblrs include What I Wore; Peace, Love, Chanel; SaraZucker.com. About eight hail from New York, but the rest will be flown in for the nine-day event. They’ll receive complimentary flights, accommodation, and will be whisked off to lunches, dinners, and cocktails with a roster of to-be-confirmed brands and designers. And of course they’ll receive access to several New York Fashion Week shows, says Rich Tong, Tumblr’s newly-annointed fashion director. (Specific shows are also yet-to-be confirmed.) They’ll also be attending the the Independent Fashion Bloggers’ conference, the Bloglovin awards, and an end-of-week party. To make the bloggers’ coverage of events and shows even more visible, Tumblr will host a real-time feed of their content at Tumblr.com/nyfw, mixed in with content from other “media partners.”

“Boudoir Queen” Fashion Designer Dawn Simorangkir Sues Courtney Love For Defamatory Tweets

Posted: 05 Jan 2011 12:39 PM PST

Dawn Simorangkir, who designs Boudoir Queen, a line known for 1920s-inspired frocks and intricate corsets, is suing Courtney Love over defamatory tweets that she claims ruined her fashion career, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

Back in March of 2009, Love tweeted something along the lines of that Simorangkir (her married name is Dawn Younger-Smith) was a “drug-pushing prostitute with a history of assault and battery who lost custody of her own child,” and that “she has received a VAST amount of money from me over 40,000 dollars and I do not make people famous and get raped TOO!"

Love had been a devoted fan of Simorangkir’s designs, wearing custom pieces created for her and shopping Boudoir Queen’s popular Etsy shop (more bitterness unraveled on Etsy as well). Things fell apart when, according to Simorangkir, Love refused to pay up for several thousand dollars worth of clothing.

We had some idea that things had gone sour between the two when a crazy commenter war broke out in a story we posted about Love’s love for Boudoir Queen and her Etsy shop. And even if Simorangkir’s career suffered after Love’s tweet-rade, she showed a lovely collection four months ago at Austin Fashion Week.

Elizabeth Olsen, Mary-Kate and Ashley’s Sister, Looks Super Hot in V

Posted: 05 Jan 2011 12:11 PM PST

Elizabeth Olsen, sister of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, stars in V‘s upcoming “Discovery” issue, which features plenty of young Hollywood’s rising stars. Fashionista contributor John Ortved wrote the piece on Olsen, who was nominated by Chace Crawford to be the issue’s “New Ingenue.” John writes: “Unlike her famous child-actor sisters, this is her first real kick at the can. Instead of using their near-infinite connections, Olsen has taken the long road – studying acting, educating herself, working as an understudy.”

Not only does she resemble her oh-so-famous sisters physically, the 21-year-old actress looks like she might have a flair for fashion as well.

Fashion News Roundup: Emmanuelle Alt Rumored To Take Over For Carine Roitfeld, Jennifer Aniston Tries Out Journalism, and Roland Mouret Puts Those Rumors About Him Ghost Designing For Victoria Beckham To Rest For Good

Posted: 05 Jan 2011 10:27 AM PST

Emmanuelle Alt To Take The Reigns At French Vogue?: WWD has it from “industry sources” that French Vogue‘s fashion director, Emmanuelle Alt is rumored to be on the short list to replace Carine Roitfeld as editor. Apparently Virginie Mouzat, Le Figaro’s fashion editor, is still in the running as well. {WWD subscription required}

Roland Mouret Does NOT Ghost Design For Victoria Beckham, OK?: There were always rumors that Mouret had a hand in designing Victoria Beckham’s well-received collections and one journo recently asked him about it. Here’s what he said: Mouret retorted with the following outburst: “Oh my God, that question! Politicians, movie stars, it’s always the first things they want to know and I’m like, why? Why would I want to design a collection for Victoria Beckham? Yes she is a friend and yes she asks for advice and yes I told her the name of a pattern cutter, but she has lots of friends she asks for advice – Marc Jacobs. I like to help people that’s all.” {Telegraph}

Jennifer Aniston, Reporter?: Jennifer Aniston interviews her Just Go With It costar Nicole Kidman in the latest Harper’s Bazaar and she’s pretty good at it. And then they do this thing where they’re all “You’re pretty,” “No, you’re pretty!” which is funny. {Harper’s Bazaar}

Kellwood Acquires Rebecca Taylor: Kellwood Co. continues their acquisition spree with Rebecca Taylor. Last year they acquired Adam, by Adam Lippes, and Isis. The Daily Front Row is reporting that Kellwood has Gryphon in their sites next. {WWD subscription required}
