Report: Carine Roitfeld Returns To Glossies

Posted: 05 May 2011 06:53 AM PDT

Well that didn’t take long.

When it was announced that Carine Roitfeld was teaming up with Barneys to guest edit and style the luxury retailer’s fall ad campaign, catalogue, mailers and windows, the former Vogue Paris EIC hinted that she would return to magazines. "I am sure that one day I will, even if it's not my own magazine, do special stories for magazines and maybe something on the Internet," Roitfeld told WWD back in March. "I have projects and opportunities coming on."

One of those projects?

The Gap Sacks Patrick Robinson, No Successor Named Yet

Posted: 05 May 2011 05:56 AM PDT

In news that will probably surprise no one, Patrick Robinson is out at the Gap. Back in February, the Gap cleaned house at the management level, installing Pam Wallack as the executive director of the new Gap Global Creative Center. They also replaced their longtime creative agency, Laird+Partners. It was inevitable that more big changes would come, since Gap's North American performance has been dismal and uninspired for several years.

"After spending the last three months in New York with the creative team, I've made the decision to make a change within our Gap Adult design team," Wallack told WWD.

How to Make Your Perfume Last, Karl Lagerfeld’s Favorite Scent and Other Tidbits We Learned at Barneys’ Le Labo Event

Posted: 04 May 2011 02:30 PM PDT

Yesterday Barneys had an intimate gathering for the ever-charming Fabrice Penot, one half of the founding team of the cult-favorite fragrance line Le Labo. Le Labo launched five years ago; both founders came from the Armani fragrance behemoth and both saw a need in the market for "fresh" perfumes. Fresh meaning they mix it up in front of you and put your name and an expiration date on it.

In the five years since its inception the line has been massively successful, and in addition to their freestanding stores and shops in Colette and Barneys, they are up for a Fifi award for the scent collaboration they did with Anthropologie.

Rosemount Australian Fashion Week: Camilla and Marc

Posted: 04 May 2011 01:13 PM PDT

SYDNEY–Camilla and Marc drew an eager crowd at the State Theatre last night in Sydney where they presented their spring 2011 collection. The ornate setting was a stark contrast to the fiercely modern collection, which included traffic-stopping brights, neoprene and a touch of sparkle.

The show had a far more playful feel than previous seasons, while still maintaining the elegance and tailoring the brand is known for. There were the signature party frocks they do so well, only these ones played with volume and colour in new ways. There were overblown, cascading ruffles down the front of an LBD, exaggerated tulip skirts, and shimmering floor length gowns worthy of any red carpet.

My Favorite Beauty Products: Ning Chao from Beautylish

Posted: 04 May 2011 12:30 PM PDT

This past January Ning Chao made the jump from magazines to the web, where she is the beauty director at Beautylish. (Welcome to the jungle, Ning!) In the ten years prior to that she’s covered beauty for Marie Claire, InStyle, Elle, Vogue, and Glamour. Now she's putting her expertise to work at Beautylish, a slick site devoted to all things beauty: there are product reviews, makeup tutorials, message boards, and a stellar news section (they scored an exclusive interview with Blake Lively's hair colorist—it took ten hours to make her a redhead.)

Ning shared her current favorite beauty obsessions:

Shiseido Dual-Balancing Foundation in O40: Makeup artist Dick Page used this on me when he gave me a makeover backstage at a Narciso Rodriguez show during fashion week. When he put on this foundation, my skin looked flawless. I layer this on top of my Shiseido SPF55 Sunscreen for Face (which tends to turn my complexion a bit ghostly) and I love how it stays put. It’s even sweatproof–the sweat literally beads off around my nose, so my foundation stays perfect!

Kanebo 38 C Lengthening and Separating Mascara: Hands-down my favorite mascara in the world. It's expensive, but it's the only mascara I've ever tried that doesn't smudge on my oily lids. And I can really build it up until it looks like I'm wearing false lashes.

Johnson’s Baby Shampoo: I use this to remove my Kanebo mascara. An opthamologist suggested baby shampoo to cleanse dust and pollen out of the lashes (to prevent allergies) and I found baby shampoo is also a great eye makeup remover that never stings. [Ed.note: Um, how brilliant is this?]

Milani Nail Lacquer in Parfait: My favorite spring manicure shade—this purply-pink makes me happy when I see it.

Perricone Acyl-Glutathione Face Cream: Now that I live in Los Angeles, I feel like I need extra sun protection. This lightweight cream is packed with antioxidants (to give my sunscreen a boost) and makes my face super soft. I use it morning and night. It's replaced the Perricone Cold Plasma cream I loved but suspected had a little bit of a fishy smell (especially since my cats wanted to sniff my face after I put it on).

Dolce & Gabbana The Lipgloss in Secret: I usually wear pink and plum lipsticks, but I'm obsessed with this hot tangerine color right now. It's perfect for spring/summer. I love how this gloss makes my lips look like they have a sheer sheet of orange vinyl on top. So much fun!

Street Style: Reb Likes Pink Girly Things

Posted: 04 May 2011 12:00 PM PDT

Name: Reb

Age: 28

How would you describe your style? It changes all the time and depends on my mood. I like girly things that remind me of my childhood.

What is the most prominent color in your wardrobe? Right now it’s pink. Which is shocking for me, but I’m loving rosy coral colors that remind me of old vintage photos and my grandma.

Temporary Tattoos, Now For Your Lips

Posted: 04 May 2011 11:00 AM PDT

Nails always hog the beauty spotlight with their sparkles and zebra stripes. But lips are getting into the act now with some over-the-top products. Last week we introduced you to Morphine lip balm, for those times when you or your loved ones need numb lips. And now we present the next generation of lip adornment: Violent Lips. (Thanks, Racked, for finding these!)

They're basically like the Sally Hansen nail strips, but for your mouth. The brand refers to them as "temporary tattoos" and they last four to eight hours; you remove them with baby oil. We suspect eating a messy plate of pasta is highly discouraged.

The come in crazy patterns like pink leopard (and tons of other animal prints), red fishnet, rainbow, and pink polka dot–which we need to try NOW. Glitter encrusted styles are coming soon. For $14.95 you get three applications per package.

Does Katy Perry know about these?

Fashion News Roundup: Lanvin’s Launching a Children’s Line, Lindsay Goes Sheer and Braless For Community Service, and Katy Perry Covers Vanity Fair

Posted: 04 May 2011 10:10 AM PDT

Lanvin Is Making Pricey Kids' Clothes: Lanvin will introduce a 25-piece kid's clothing line which will hit stores in late November. Unfortunately for Rachel Zoe and her baby boy, it's for girls only (ages 4-10). The line will reflect Lanvin's "ultrasophisticated approach"—meaning, ka-ching. {WWD, subscription required}

Lindsay Wore a See-Through Top Braless for her First Day of Community Service: She didn't even bother to throw on an old pair of Ungaro pasties. Perfect outfit for the Women's Center. {Egotastic}

Galliano Hired a New Lawyer: Aurélien Hamelle at Metzner Associés in Paris is Galliano's new legal representative. The High Court in France will set his trial date on May 12. {WWD, subscription required}

Katy Perry Is Covering June’s Vanity Fair: She's wearing red lips, bouncy hair, a champange gown, and spectacular decolletage on the cover. Read the interview–she discusses artichokes as a metaphor. {Vanity Fair}

Exclusive Video: Candice Swanepoel Just Barely Keeps Her Victoria’s Secret “Stringkini” On

Posted: 04 May 2011 09:40 AM PDT



Victoria’s Secret Angel Candice Swanepoel took some heat recently for photos that showed her looking too thin. She issued a statement telling everyone she was fine, and she certainly looks it in this new commercial for VS swim. Also if you need any motivation to hit the gym in preparation for bikini weather, this should do it.

Seven Questions For Shoe Designer Alejandro Ingelmo

Posted: 04 May 2011 08:45 AM PDT

Parson’s grad Alejandro Ingelmo might be fairly new to the shoe design scene–he launched his first collection in 2006–but he’s had almost instant success, scoring a CFDA nom this year for the Swarovski Award for Accessories and was a nominee in 2008, too. Designers like Chris Benz and Cushnie et Ochs call on him to shod their models for their runway shows. So it follows that Ingelmo opened his first stand-alone brick and mortar store this past fall at 51 Wooster St. in Soho.

We chatted with the designer about his sexy spring collection (currently in store), his thoughts on collaborating, and his exciting new business plans for this summer.
