As far as Fashion Week parties go, Thursday night's Interview magazine relaunch party at the yet-to-be finished Standard Hotel in the meatpacking district will be hard to top. The Standard is still a construction zone—exposed wire, plywood laid down for walkways, DJs in hard hats—and the effect was very much early '90s East Berlin, except for all the New York darlings wandering around, thrilled at the prospect of a new party venue.

Arden Wohl was there. Donna Karan was there. Gossip Girl’s Taylor Momsen made an appearance, as did model Jessica Stam, author Tama Janowitz, real estate developer Janna Bullock, socialite Stella Schnabel, and actresses Mary-Kate Olsen and Lauren Hutton.  read more »

Earlier this month, Ok! reported that Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen are trained to say the word "Prune" every time they smile for the cameras to achieve that effortless, pouty half-smile. And now that they've been found out, they're changing up their technique!

Posing alongside co-star Olivia Thirlby at last night's screening of The Wackness, Ms. Olsen's puckered lips parted, and out came her tiny teeth, which suddenly took away all of her heroin-chic sex appeal and brought back the Michelle Tanner we always hoped would return someday.

HuffPo has more close-ups.

Apparently that puckered smile that makes the Olsen twins' seem engaged ("We're happy to be here!") yet reserved ("Teeth are so crass!") has a name. It's called "the Prune."  read more »
