In which we look back at what everyone wore to their big press junkets and premieres and graded them, harshly. Well, not ALWAYS harshly. Ahem:
“Highlight(s): His biceps. Oh, wait, on the red carpet? Of all those summer grey suits; his well-tailored look at the Tribeca Film Festival was a dapper standout.”
Yes, that was for Chris Hemsworth. So dreamy. Read the rest of it at The (new and improved) Cut!
For the brand-new The Cut (check it out, if you haven’t yet — they did a fancy redesign), we did a piece on what we dubbed Celebrity Stockholm Syndrome — which is to say, the people whose weirdo red carpet style has won us over to the point of hoping they’ll never change. For instance, who did we claim “ushered in the modern epoch of WTF Is She Wearing?”
Or:
Further, she gives you that tremendous[...] stink-eye that suggests you, too, should genuflect to her majesty, or else she will smite you with her mind.

…it will shock and amaze you. For example:
” Real talk: This is ridiculous. It’s too tight, she’s got eyeballs on her boobs, and she’s carrying a purse made out of a cupcake. But is it weird that, three and a half years later, we suddenly find it somewhat hilarious? Listen, once you’ve seen Lady Gaga pop up wearing the Aktins diet, a girl with peepers on her knockers ain’t so bad.”
I don’t even want to say anything. Just that you need to look at Dee Snider. And on the subject of Ratt:
“You know you’re in the presence of true artistry when the band’s name is conveniently also a verb describing what they have done to both their hair and their gnawed-on outfits. This is what it would look like if a roving band of aerobics-instructors-turned-vigilantes patrolled the streets exacting justice on criminals with their uniquely vicious brand of jazzer-fighting.”

Tonight is the Glee finale, and if there is anything I’ll miss about Glee, it is Kurt and his wardrobe. Which is why it was so fun to write about his most wacktacular get-ups this season. For example:
“We aren’t entirely sure what to call that hybrid of a turtleneck, a poncho, a dickey, and a straitjacket. “Dickchoneckjacket” doesn’t quite have the right ring to it.”

‘Anchorman 2’ Teaser Trailer: You Stay Classy
New York Fashion Week, Day 4
BECKHAM!!! This fashion week has been all about hot athletes, but I don’t know if it can top David Beckham at Y-3 yesterday. I seriously said, “OH MY GOD” aloud to no one when he walked out from backstage.
Sunday is no day of rest for Fashion Week. And if anyone’s working is, it was Naomi freaking Campbell at Zac Posen. She wasn’t the only supermodel in the house, though. We spotted the Divine Coco Rocha, Hilary Rhoda, Erin O’Connor, Alek Wek, Karolina Kurkova, Liya Kebede, and Angela Lindvall. That is a house full of models, man. Oh, right: there were celebrities there, too.
We spotted a rando third-string One Tree Hill star at DKNY (that is kind of a compliment coming from us, remember), and chatted up Ashley Greene, who really is a good brand ambassador for them. We also spotted Lauren Conrad getting MASS MOBBED by people at Lela Rose – who knew LC’d have this kind of longevity? — and eavesdropped on Mandy Moore, who seems as sweet as you’d want her to be. But we were possibly most excited to see Hailee Steinfeld at Tommy Hilfiger. She was hanging with the Teen Vogue folks, which makes sense, right? Love the pic they’re running with that report, too — I covet those totes.
