“Word on the street is that [She] consults, or did consult, for the Italian brand, Max Mara. She allegedly asked Balenciaga for samples for an editorial shoot, and one of the coats ended up at Max Mara’s design studio where it was copied and then sent back to Paris.” — Fashionista.com’s Britt Aboutaleb, on why French Vogue Editor, Carine Roitfeld was blacklisted from Balenciaga’s show this season.. shame, shame!!

ALT’s tweets are getting better..

Sunday: “Oscar placement? Who did the seating? Why is all of Precious lumped in a corner? If I don’t say ,who will. Wrong! So wrong!”
