WISH WE WERE THERE: EVENTS WE MISSED THIS WEEK

FASHIONABLE FAREWELL FOR ISABELLA BLOW
...the gliteratti came out in full force for isabella blow's funeral last tuesday. andre leon talley, philip treacy, sophi dahl, and of course alexander mcqueen were among the 250+ guests who attended the burial. even sadder than the occasion is that the fabulous fashionista may have commited suicide. i don't know this for a fact, but according to wwd, an autopsy revealed that she swallowed weed killer. damn. all that glitters is definitely not gold. it's fab to be well dressed, but fabber still to be well balanced.

DIOR DRAWS A-LIST AT WTC

Dior showed their cruise collection Monday, May 14th, at New York City's world trade center. With socialites like Genevieve Jones (so intrigued by this chic!), Tinsley Mortimer (met her, love her!), Valesca Guerrand-Hermes (with a name like Hermes, the world really is yours) and Lauren Davis - I don't know what was more fab: the clothing or the guest list. The event was held at 7 World Trade Center.

CHANEL ON CRUISE CONTROL
Chanel launched it's cruise show in Los Angeles last Friday. We here that ex-super model (who still looks damn good) Claudia Schiffer has been tapped by Karl Lagerfeld to model the clothes in the Chanel cruise collection press kit. How utterly fab! Of course Ms. Schiffer was in the audience at the cruise show, as were other bold faced names, Demi Moore and Cameron Diaz.

ULTRA SEXY SUPER TANNED CONDOMINIUMS?
...that's all i can think of when i hear that Versace is launching a condominium and hotel project. in fact, they broke ground on the property on friday, may 11th in dubai. it has the ultra lush name of Palazzo Versace Hotel and Condominium resort. wow.

UNIQLO CONTINUES TO STEAL GAPS THUNDER
Uniqlo unveiled a fierce fall collection in New York City on Tuesday. IT featured cashmere knit designs from their current stable of designers plus some new ones to boot, Lutz & Patmos, Adam Jones and Keita Maruyama.
