Natalie Portman Condemns Galliano: “I will not be associated with Mr. Galliano in any way.”

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 02:13 AM PST

Israeli-born Natalie Portman, who is currently the face of the Miss Dior Cherie fragrance, has issued a statement regarding Galliano’s anti-Semitic rant caught on video, the New York Times is reporting:

"I am deeply shocked and disgusted by the video of John Galliano's comments that surfaced today. In light of this video, and as an individual who is proud to be Jewish, I will not be associated with Mr. Galliano in any way. I hope at the very least, these terrible comments remind us to reflect and act upon combating these still-existing prejudices that are the opposite of all that is beautiful."

Jezebel is citing reports that Portman had planned to wear Dior for the Oscars and swapped it for Rodarte last minute after hearing of Galliano’s arrest and the initial claim of verbal assault and Antisemitism filed against him. We doubt this is true for several reasons:

Graffiti Artist Ozkar Gorgias Turns 12 Year of Old Sneakers Into Art

Posted: 28 Feb 2011 03:03 PM PST

Street artist and photographer Ozkar Gorgias has spent the past 12 years creating graffiti around Europe painting abandoned buildings, subways and roof tops (see more on his blog). With him throughout the journey were many pairs of well-worn sneakers. A hazard of the occupation, these simple shoes became splattered with his paint and dirt. Only an artist would think to display the grungy shoes, but his creation is remarkable. Titled "12 Years Graffiti Writing," Ozkar Gorgias photographed 12 pairs of his Jackson-Pollock-esque shoes on a white background. The piece functions as a documentary of Gorgias' transitory work as well as his process. It might not be what 12 years of my footwear would look like (there would be heels, lots of heels.) but exploring the past through possessions is an interesting way to explore functionality, consumerism and our impulse to hold onto personal belongings.

What would a display of your footwear say about you?

Rumor: Blake Lively Thinks It’s “Tacky” For Celebs to Attend Fashion Shows, Might Not Attend Chanel?

Posted: 28 Feb 2011 02:07 PM PST

PARIS–Here’s a rumor that makes absolutely no sense but a credible source swears it’s true: Blake Lively is allegedly refusing to attend Chanel, even though she’s the face of the brand, because, our source says, “she thinks it’s tacky for a celebrity like herself to attend the show.” Instead, she’s planning to host a dinner during Paris Fashion Week to give press the opportunity to chat with the face of Chanel’s new Mademoiselle handbag line. And we hear it’s quickly become a hot-ticket item.

This doesn’t make sense for several reasons:

NYFW Fall 2011 Beauty Trendspotting: Blue-Eyed Girl

Posted: 28 Feb 2011 01:15 PM PST



Blue eyes are having a moment. Not the powdery blue of the 70s or shocking blue of the 80s–this is a thoroughly modern blue shot through with metallics. See Betsey Johnson and Jason Wu for blue and gold (both also used gold in the hair, to very different effect). Feeling cooler? Add a dash of shimmery silver a la Derek Lam and Badgley Mischka.

Watch: Nicola Formichetti’s Inspiration For Mugler Fall 2011, Plus Lady Gaga To Reveal a New Track During the Show

Posted: 28 Feb 2011 09:48 AM PST

Mugler–under Nicola Formichetti’s creative direction the label is now just called “Mugler” instead of “Thierry Mugler”–has steadily been rolling out “inspiration images” in advance of Formichetti’s first women’s collection for the brand which shows Wednesday night in Paris. The shiny black alien-like sculpture we saw glimpses of in the inspiration photos is now more clearly revealed in this new video. Meaning, we can see the sculpture in its entirety and in greater detail, but what the hell it is or what it means for Formichetti’s collection we can only begin to guess. Which makes us even more excited to see his show.

Another reason to get excited for Mugler (which will stream live on Wednesday 2nd March at starting at 9PM CET/3 PM EST on the brand's Facebook page–and is still listed as Theirry Mugler for some reason)? Lady Gaga, naturally.

Formichetti and Gaga go together like bacon and chocolate (trust me, those things go together), and Gaga will serve as musical director for the runway show as she did for Formichetti’s men’s show in January. What’s more, Gaga will reveal a new, never before heard track during the show. You’re welcome little monsters!

Best Dressed: Oscars Edition

Posted: 28 Feb 2011 07:45 AM PST



The Oscar red carpet is no place for a crazy fashion forward risk, but actresses still wowed in lipstick reds (a trend hot of the fall runways) or kept it pretty in creams, violets and blush tones. It was hard to pick just 10 (I lobbied hard for Mila Kunis in Elie Saab Couture but she still got cut). Who else do you think should have made our list?

Galliano Anti-Semitic Rant Caught on Video

Posted: 28 Feb 2011 06:52 AM PST

This morning UK tabloid The Sun released a disturbing cell phone video which reveals a seemingly drunk John Galliano at a cafe hurling appalling anti-Semitic insults at patrons nearby.

“I love Hitler,” he says. “People like you would be dead. Your mothers, your forefathers, would all be f**king gassed.”

According to The Sun, the video was taken at La Perle, the same cafe where the designer allegedly attacked Géraldine Bloch and Philippe Virgiti last week which resulted in his arrest and suspension at Dior. According to the Daily Mail Galliano called Bloch an “ugly, disgusting whore” with a “dirty Jew face.” (Galliano subsequently launched a counter-claim of defamation against Bloch and Virgiti).

Today also brings word that a second complaint has been filed against John Galliano for allegedly making anti-Semitic remarks, WWD is reporting. Galliano’s lawyer, Stéphane Zerbib, confirmed to WWD that another complaint was filed Saturday by a woman who claims she was the victim of a verbal attack at the same La Perle cafe a few weeks ago. It is unclear whether the second complaint is in anyway related to the leaked cell phone video.

Watch the video below, but be warned it is highly offensive:
