- Jourdan Dunn is about to begin her storm. It’s blatantly clear to all of us that besides a elect few models, the only way to continuously make money is to use your popularity to launch yourself as a brand in other categories. It’s a house that Kate Moss built, a map that she wrote. Well it looks like Jourdan Dunn is ready for her journey. The model has a Vogue UK solo cover under her belt and has now announced that she’s going to launch a fashion brand with Fuid World who launched the Hello Kitty brand in the UK. Expect jeans, jackets, tees, leggings, jumpers and accessories. (Fashion Insight)
The Americans have swept the top prizes at the International Woolmark Prize. A few months ago it was announced that Public School secured the men’s war as the men’s representatives and now Marcia Patmos of M.Patmos has been crowed as the women’s winner. She’ll win some 100,000 in Australian dollars and the capsule collection she designed will be made available for purchase. (Fashion Monitor)
- In news that no one finds surprising: following the departures of Kathy Griffin and Kelly Osbourne, Fashion Police is headed for a hiatus. Though they plan to return this fall, as of now they only have Melissa Rivers, Giuliana Rancic and Brad Goreski as a part of the staff. I think in a few months they’ll either announce that they aren’t returning or possibly just silently, and rightfully, not return. What do you guys think? (Fashionista)
- One of the latest and most notable names to weigh in on that Dolce & Gabbana controversy is another designer: Olivier Rousteing. Prepare yourself, it’s a little shady: “Honestly, I was shocked. Sometimes it is better, when you have these kinds of thoughts, just not to talk at all,” he said. “Just talk about Sicily. I have no words about that; that was bad. I’ve met Domenico and he is someone so nice, who has been so supportive, that I almost can’t believe that they said that.” Well then, that’s that. (The Fashion Spot)
- To celebrate the Savage McQueen exhibit at V&A Museum, Alexander McQueen(the brand) is releasing a limited-edition capsule collection of scarves.
