Anna Wintour Wants Marchesa All to Herself

• Anna Wintour demanded a private, pre-show viewing from Marchesa, making for a mannequin scramble — and hasty makeup jobs. Quelle horreur! [Fashionista]
• PETA is remaining hush-hush about when they’ll start hurling red-paint-filled pies, or whatever it is they plan on throwing this time around. [Daily Transom/NYO]
• Cathy Horyn drops the hammer on L.A.M.B.: “If ever there was a reason for a pop star to concentrate on her vocal skills, it was Gwen Stefani’s fashion meltdown.” Bitchy! Fun! [NYT]
• The witty chicks over at Jezebel brought goody bags to the Fashion Week masses. More specifically, they handed out barf bags filled with Ex-Lax, tongue depressors, and Tic-Tacs. Bitchy! Fun! [Jezebel]
• The forthcoming New Yorker festival will feature Jeff Koons chatting with Calvin Klein; in other brainy news, Alber Elbaz will be the topic of a Q&A at the “T Style Talks.” Dress code is academic-chic. [The Daily]
