The Anna Wintour Show...move over Conan O'Brien
Word is out that Anna Wintour is kicking up the heat on Fashion’s Night Out and pitching the networks for a Victoria’s Secret-type televised special for CBS. The show would include a huge, grand-scale fashion show filmed at Lincoln Center, which would also serve as the official kick-off to the new home of Mercedes Benz Fashion Week, which is being moved uptown in September. That should create enough drama, cat fights and gridlock to choke a horse. No one is looking forward to moving the tents uptown to the Big Apple Circus tents except Anna and her underling Stephanie Winston Wolkoff. Concerns about traffic, higher costs to show and worse, the restrictions of Lincoln Center has most designers in a tizzy. Back to the television show. It is hard to imagine a one-hour special that shows people shopping, hence I am sure it will have to be the obligatory celebrity interviews. So, move over Baba Wawa (Barbara Walters)…here comes Anna Wintour…who should definitely do the interviews.
Anna Wintour: When did you realize you wanted to be a fashion designer?
Victoria “Posh” Beckham: When I was a little girl I used to love playing dress up. And being a Spice Girl really cemented my passion for fashion.
Anna: And what did you buy at Fashions Night Out?
Posh: I bought this lovely dress that I designed.
Anna Wintour: Tell me about your project Shopping For Haiti.
George Clooney: Well…you shop…for Haiti. (Smiles with the cheeky grim.)
Anna Wintour: When did you get the call about designing the First Lady Michelle Obama’s Inaugural Gown.
Jason Wu: I guess that will always be my claim to fame.
Anna Wintour: Can we stop this now? (Rips off microphone and walks off set.)
at least her tweets were cryptically cool when she was doing them…or who knows maybe it was a ghost tweeter. but alas she's off twitter now.
Thaanks for the great post and email. Hope to see you there!
