Carine Roitfeld Thinks Tom Ford Is ‘Not So Gay’
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: Carine Roitfeld is a fashion alien. Which is to say: she says such delightfully odd things about fashion! In today’s installment, she’s chats with The New York Times about the one shoe she has never used in a Vogue Paris story, why she keeps a scale in her office, and how gay, exactly, Tom Ford is.
Jaime King Responds To Her Portrayal In 1996 NYT Model Feature
We’ve referenced James Is A Girl, Jennifer Egan’s 1996 New York Times article on the modeling industry starring a then 16-year-old Jaime King, no shortage of times and we’ve been planning on dedicating a Time Warp to its awesomeness for months now, which is why we were super pumped to see the Times reference it in a retrospective this weekend. As part of a larger round-up, they asked now 32-year-old actress King how she felt about her portrayal in the piece.

Dov Charney Hopes To One Day Live Like Hugh Hefner
We’re starting to wonder if embattled American Apparel CEO Dov Charney doesn’t just do and say certain things just to get a rise out of us. (And upon reflection, we’re pretty sure that’s exactly what he does, so… Anyway!) Charney is the subject of a New York Times profile today in which he mocks American Apparel’s board of directors, decries the “repressive” state of American culture, and reveals his desire to recreate the Playboy mansion in his 20-room concrete home in Los Angeles’ hipster-friendly neighborhood of Silver Lake.
TIME WARP: ‘Saucy’ Performers In Fabulous Old School Costumes
Vintage pictures are the best, aren’t they? Today’s throwback comes to us courtesy of the New York Times. Back in the day (that is, the teens, ’20s, and ’30s) the Times ran a weekly supplement featuring “saucy publicity shots of female performers.” And the photos are amazing.
Anna Wintour Doesn’t Share Elevators With Commoners
Last summer, Tim Gunn rocked the fashion world with his account of the time he saw Anna Wintour get carried down five flights of stairs, fireman style, by bodyguards at a Peter Som show in 2006. Well, fashion world, get ready, because the New York Times‘ Eric Wilson has another doozy: Ms. Wintour won’t share elevators, either!
Chelsea’s Wedding Dress, Tavi Top NYT’s Fashion Moments List
As part of the media’s annual year-end love affair with listicles (current company included), Eric Wilson and Cathy Horyn of the New York Times offered up their top ten fashion moments of the 2010 calendar year. And while both lists were filled with fitting (and somewhat predictable) pics — the death of Alexander McQueen and Carine Roitfeld‘s resignation come to mind — they both opened with surprising nods to pop culture and the changing face of the industry as a whole.
Kurt Cobain, British Weather Influence Alexa Chung’s Style
Just as the Sunday Styles finally discovered Kim Kardashian, they have now found Alexa Chung. We’ve been following one of Vogue‘s best dressed for quite some time, but the New York Times is just now getting on the Chung wagon.
8 Fashion Moments From Courtney Love’s NYT Profile
In one of the best Sunday Styles profiles (hell, one of the best profiles period) we’ve read in a long time, the Times‘ Eric Wilson tells the compelling story of Courtney Love as fashion icon. (Remember this?) The narrative is entertaining, well-paced and just entirely fascinating. You have to read the whole article to fully appreciate its brilliance, but we’ve picked out the piece’s best fashion moments.
Brazillian Model Calls Non-Fashion People “Simple”
There is nothing we love more than a good, underminey New York Times Style profile — which is why today’s piece by Guy Trebay on Marc Jacobs‘ “ex” Lorenzo Martone is, in a word, amazing. While Martone is certainly the star of the piece, Brazillian model Jeisa Chiminazzo — his date for the evening during which Trebay followed him to the Brazil Foundation Gala — absolutely steals the show.
Hipsters Don Basketball Jerseys, Merit Times Write-up
The New York Times‘ Sunday Styles section is a place to read interesting perspectives on the fashion world and to look at Bill Cunningham‘s latest pics.

Cathy Horyn: Alexander Wang Is Not A Great Designer
Cathy Horyn doesn’t pull punches. Remember the New York Times fashion critic’s scathing profile of Snooki? Today she skewers none other than our beloved Alexander Wang.

Despite the addled layout of the store’s seemingly infinite inventory, New York Times critical shopper Jon Caramanica found three friends willing to take on the mission of shopping at Forever 21′s Times Square location.

CHALLENGE: Mastering the ‘Shopper’s Diet’
Does a love for fashion correlate with irresponsibility? Is it necessary for publications to rejoice over pre-recession shopping behavior now the economy’s finally beginning to crawl out of its crater?

Crowd-Sourcing Style Sites Slowly Replace Personal Taste
Constructive criticism is equally as important as personal taste, especially when, for example, you’re trying to figure out whether a LBD or a loose shirt over a pair of cinched khaki shorts would be most appropriate for your friend’s gallery opening. But after getting nothing but nods from friends, and your mother telling you, “You’re beautiful on the inside!”, in can be hard to separate truth from fiction. Thanks to the wonderful invention of the internet, an honest opinion is just a photo upload away.
