Hey y’all! Heather and I have been, as you know, in New York at Fashion Week since last Thursday, and I usually don’t have time to work up a Fugs and Pieces post when we’re out of town, because I’m not, you know, flarging around on the internet all day. However, this time I seem to have enough stuff floating around and a little time to share it. Please enjoy — it’s a bit fashion week-y this time!
– Josh Jackson and Diane Kruger are wearing wedding rings. I’m not joking: When I saw this post, I thought, “Oh my god, I have to find time to do Fugs and Pieces this week. FUG NATION WILL WANT TO KNOW.” (Lainey Gossip)
– The Wall Street Journal is doing this GREAT series about people who have little-known jobs at Fashion Week. I know about it because I heard the author interviewed in a cab on the way to a show — she was talking a bit about the series, and about the dudes who make the tents, specifically — and it is so, so interesting. This particular piece is about model dressers, and its lede is basically perfect. (WSJ)
– In fact, the WSJ has been producing some great stories this week — like this one, about the civilians who pay full price for designer clothes. These women have…. a lot of money. (WSJ)
– SJP wants to do another SatC movie. GIRL. NO. PLEASE NO. LET IT DIE. PLEASE LET IT DIE AND THEN LET IT REST IN PEACE MY GOD PLEASE ENOUGH THE LAST ONE WAS PRACTICALLY AN INTERNATIONAL INCIDENT. (Celebitchy)
– I was sad to hear that Uncle “HELLO” Leo from Seinfeld died this week. Flavorwire gives him a proper salute. HELLO. (Flavorwire)
– Robin Givhan tackles the issue of race in fashion. I can’t recommend this piece enough. It was fascinating and thoughtful, and when I finished it I turned to Heather and I said, “Robin Givhan is such a good writer.” She is. (New York)
– This interview with Fug Fave Paz de a Huerta is all you hoped for and more. (Elle)
– Ever wondered what it would be like to go camping with Channing Tatum? WONDER NO MORE. The short version is: IT’S AMAZING. (GQ)
