When asked about Anna Wintour's potential position as an ambassador and the backlash that followed, her longtime boyfriend Shelby Bryan said: "It's not just Anna - I see powerful women who really get slammed for being too forthright or running their business in a very determined way. If [former GE CEO] Jack Welch were being named as a potential ambassador, people wouldn't be saying, 'Oh, but hang on, Jack's a little strict in the way he runs his companies.'" Amen, Shelby!

Grace Coddington gave another great interview. She lamented that in today's fashion shows, "the focus seems to be more on the audience than on the clothes that go down the runway. Any old shit can go down the runway and they all sit there and clap." And on the subject of the changes going on at Balenciaga, she warned that commercial success is their goal: "Don't think of it as the same house as it was when Nicolas was the creative director; that's everybody's mistake."

Ricardo Tisci tapped some of his famous friends, including models Kate Moss, Mariacarla Boscono and Francisco Peralta, artists Marina Abramovic and Jared Buckhiester, and bullfighter Jose Maria Manzanares for the new Givenchy ad campaign. Pictured above are Manzanares and Buckheister. [via WWD] 
Fashion editor Christina Dietze and creative director Nick Thomm decided to team up and create an alternative fashion mag called SRC783. We can't wait to track it down and flip through it. [via It's Nice That]

Andre Leon Talley really knows how to make a simile! He described Mick Jagger's dancing during the final show of The Rolling Stones' tour (pictured above) thusly: "Mick Jagger on stage is like a dandelion floating in the air...the Jagger prance-strut-dance is as powerful as James Brown's snake-hip wiggle, as Elvis Presley's gyrating hips with his guitar, as Little Richard's over-the-top sexy jigs." He then compares him to a Pentacostal minister. [via

Deborah Lippmann is making a line of nail polish inspired by the girls of Girls. Hannah's color is "Hapless Hunter Green," Marnie's is "Prim and Proper Pink," Shoshanna's is "Virtuous Vivid Violet" and Jessa's is "Bohemian Burgundy." The adjectives tacked onto the color descriptions are a little cringe-worthy, but we like the burgundy and the green. [via

Appropriately, the up-and-comer staged models in variously themed doll boxes during her debut presentation. You can snag her shoes on
