Fashion Scoop: Fern Mallis Does Want To Chat With Kanye, Claire Underwood Gets Style Makeover, Marc Jacobs Disses Young Designers.
 
- During New York Fashion Week, Fern Mallis made some comments about Kanye West saying that she was sort of over him and “his agenda.”
 Subsequently in a very Kanye way, West went on Twitter for a good old 
tirade which he later deleted and amongst other things half invited half
 challenged Mallis to a meeting at The Spotted Pig in New York, once he 
got back for a little chat. While Mallis has deferred on answering the 
invitation, she’s responding with an invitation of her own: Kanye, meet 
Mallis live and in person for a sit down interview for her 92Y Fashion 
Icons series. You can hash it all out then. (Fashionista)
 
- The Apple Watch is coming. Don’t believe me? Open your latest issue 
of Vogue! Anna Wintour greenly a 12-page spread ad in the magazine’s 
Spring Fashion Issue, featuring three versions of the watch.  It’s clear
 the accessory is going for the fashion crowd but just how much has that
 cost them? Well though they likely got a deal, Vogue charges up to 
$189,888 per page for an ad. (Re/Code)
 
- The new House of Cards season will debut fully on Netflix sometime 
in the dark of night between today and tomorrow.  What’s in store? Well 
in addition to some crazy, cryptic and complex cavorting in the White 
House, the leading lady Claire Underwood is getting a wardrobe revamp. 
 Expect Louis Vuitton and Prada pumps, Ralph Lauren, Altuzarra, Derek 
Lam, Proenza Schouler, Alexander McQueen, Dolce & Gabbana and Max 
Mara amongst other designers. Another thing to expect from the new look:
 color! We can’t wait. (WWD)
 
- Bloggers like BryanBoy, Susie Bubble, Anna Dello Russo and Derek 
Blasberg are out on their own. Formerly a part of the Nowmanifest 
platform owned by Conde Nast, the bloggers will now be managing their 
own advertising and business management, which had been under the 
purview of Nowmanifest. Conde Nast will be taking the attention focused 
on that platform and divert it to strengthening Style.com (Business of Fashion)
 
- Though Marc Jacobs distanced himself from social media yesterday, 
the designer is distancing himself from all of things young including 
designers. “I look at young fashion and it seems like it’s all the same — the idea of what is edgy or cool,” he said in an internee. “It’s
 style with no substance; it doesn’t really seem born of anything. I 
don’t see the rebellion or edge in it. It just looks like a cliche: 
salad oil in the hair, Frankenstein shoes and the trappings of punk and 
all these other things.” (NY Mag)
