The AmFAR From Best Dresed List
I Mean..What?!? loves a good best dressed list…but there’s nothing like the exact opposite to warm the cockles of our heart. That and Suzy Menkes.

Young Hollywood Is So Old (Kernels of Dish)
Perusing the images from the recent The 12th Annual Young Hollywood Awards felt more like an episode of The I MEAN…WHAT?!? Nobody News.

In Support of New York Manzie Week
In today’s Women’s Wear Daily, the discussion is whether New York deserves a Men’s Fashion Week, similar to those in Milan and Paris.
