“I Mean…What?!?” – Abe Gurko

Of Rachel Zoe and Snooki can be in the same sentence when we are talking about style, I have only one question, “Is the end of the world nigh?” … Read More »

With the big news that Rick Santorum does not stand a chance of becoming the Republican nominee in the Race for the White House, much of the other news in the morning papers is more nonsensical than Rick Santorum himself. Sometimes one has to take these bits and pieces of rubbish and share them with his friends. Starting with Miss Piggy, I mean Snooki, pictured above. Word is she is pregnant but in a bind because they just started filming the new reality series Snooki & JWoww, a modern day version of Laverne & Shirley. What could be less interesting… Read More »

The newest Bravo reality show proves that some people whose job is behind-the-scenes should remain just that. Case in point: It’s A Brad Brad World, the new reality show starring (and I use the term loosely) Brad Goreski of The Rachel Zoe Project fame (again, loosely used term here).… Read More »

We all know about the Emperor’s New Clothes. Those designers who are really not all that, rather, they are a bag of chips and get the ooohs and aaaah from the fashion press. You know who you are, and don’t need me to call you out. Hint: P. S. But we have hit a new level of Emperor’s New Clothes with simply a group of Emperors, namely Brad Goreski. He and Leigh Lezark are like the same person. Well, have you ever seen them together in the same room at the same time? Brad was a fun ditty on season… Read More »

Please visit Milk Gallery while the Rankin Live exhibit is going on. All this week, world-renowned photographer Rankin is shooting portraits of people of all ages, shapes and sizes. I am all of the above. Needless to say, any excuse to see pretty pictures should be reason enough to get over there. The best part is that Rankin Live is a global initiative, which I learned on CBS Sunday Morning (my favorite television show), to benefit Oxfam. The shoot was so much fun. I arrived to a slew of familiar faces, which is always comforting, especially when you are not… Read More »

Literally…I die. I die every time I watch The Rachel Zoe Project because she dies so many times that I die watching her die. Last night, she almost died doing the Naomi Campbell Fashion For Relief: Haiti event. When Rachel pulls Brad, her trusted sidekick, aside after meeting the Haitian male model, forcing a tear saying, “I have a thing about Haitians…they are like the nicest people in the world….it’s like every time I meet a Haitian….I…like…know how sweet and kind they are….I say…are you Haitian…and like they say yes.” Well, I thought I was going to die. Last night’s… Read More »

Madonna is finally jumping into the fashion business?!? I knew that she was hankering to become a schmatta peddler for years but was waiting for the right time and the right deal. And I guess this is it. There is no time like the present and there’s no place like Macy’s…though I wish she would just stay home. Anyone who is anyone that reads I MEAN…WHAT?!? knows how obsessed I am with this whole celebrity-turned-designer quagmire that we find ourselves in. And not obsessed like “I am obsessed with my Sarah Jessica Parker for Halston number” but more like, “Can… Read More »

Look, I think Sarah Jessica Parker is great. Who does not love Sex and the City and who does not think her willingness to wear ridiculous hats makes her even more sympathetic…to the cause of fashion uber alles. But, today, Women’s Wear Daily is reporting the SJP is going to take an active role at the Halston Heritage Collection…whatever that is. Seriously, Halston must be turning in his grave. From Randolph Duke to the Rachel Zoe nonsense, to the current Marco Zanini, who will surely be overshadowed by SJP. I don’t know, perhaps Harvey Weinstein and Tamara Mellon should just… Read More »

I am a huge Rachel Zoe fan. As a ex-fatty I cannot condemn her for wanting to be too rich or too thin, which is the mantra of the glitterati set. Seems like she is really busy and always on the run, extremely neurotic, and uber-self conscious. All of those things make you loose weight, so she in fact can start The Rachel Zoe Diet, which is the combination of all of the aforementioned. The Rachel Zoe Diet limits your food intake, quadruples you Starbucks ingestion and the act of saying and being fiercely fabulous will take pounds off your… Read More »
