This morning Vogue Italia editor in chief Franca Sozzani tweeted a link to the quartet, which includes Christina Andrews, Christine Hauer, Lauren Chan, and Sara Marchiori. [Vogue.it]

The Met Gala is the gift that keeps on giving…Business of Fashion’s Imran Amed looks past the who-wore-what and serves up a critical assessment of the evening’s proceedings, which were easy on public relations and harsh on inboxes. Amed correctly identifies the arrival of the Met Gala as a top tier public relations event with the likes of the Academy Awards and concludes “…the success and wider reverberations of [Monday] night’s event seem to underscore fashion’s potential as a growing genre of mass entertainment within which the Met Ball seems certain to expand its reach and influence.”  [Business of Fashion]

Imagine raiding the closets of Nina Griscom and Nicole Roehm for the designer evening wear these friends wore to A-list events in the 1980s and 1990s. This scenario will be realized when 350 vintage pieces from Halton to Yves Saint Laurent that have been languishing in the pair’s respective wardrobes will be sold at a private two-day sale at the Regency Hotel at 540 Park Avenue. Ten percent of the sales will be donated to Africa Foundation for Griscom, and the Good Dog Foundation for Roehm. Dibs on the Azzedine Alaïa leather jacket from 1985. [WWD]

El-P drops his hotly anticipated new album Cancer4Cure later this month and has given a rare track-by-track breakdown of the work. I was privileged enough to hear the complete album for the first time during Fashion Week in Paris in early March and will say that in fashion terms it is on some Fall 2016 type etc and so on.
