This morning at around eight o’clock, Barneys flung open its doors to welcome stylish spendthrifts—reportedly over 100 of them—who had lined up to make like locusts at the store’s warehouse sale. Our morning coffee must have been spiked with too much sanity, because we weren’t there to report on the dumpling-line doppelganger. But a New York fashion reporter was, and they got some good stuff … for free!

If the curious magnitude of the sale was ever in question, the two girls from Long Island, who apparently boarded a 5:30 a.m. train to the city, can probably speak to its import. Or perhaps the woman wearing “a big furry hood” who got in line at six a.m. could put in her two-cents on the matter. That is, unless she needed to put them toward a $200 pair of Christian Louboutins.  read more »

It’s been two whole years since Kate Moss was busted for bad stuff, but she’s still selling like hot cakes in a snowstorm. Word on the street is that the supermodel-cum-fashion mogul, 33, will cut the ribbon at America’s first TopShop store when it opens next year. She’s currently south of the border shooting a campaign for her Spring 2008 collection, which is reportedly “very Jade Jagger in Ibiza.” Whoa! That could mean a whole mess of things—alotta teeny bikinis, wicked-hangover robes, fuzzy hot pants with neon lighting attached—but, alas, the bloggers at Fashionista think it alludes to Ms. Moss’ last collection. (Apparently Ms. Jagger plus the island of iniquity, in some sense, equals “printed caftans.”) Impatient fans of the model’s trendy threads can stave off any unwanted knicker-knotting by visiting the TopShop Web site, where her first collection for the English retailer is 50% off.
