aleXsandro Palombo never fails to tickle us with his creative, tongue-in-cheek illustrations of fashion industry heavyweights, but we are particularly excited about his latest works of art. When we saw these Simpsons caricatures of people like Anna Wintour, Grace Coddington and Coco Chanel, we couldn’t help but laugh out loud and reminisce about America’s favorite animated family. Click to see all the brilliant works.

If you’re anything like us than you probably follow Karl Lagerfeld‘s every move. That being said we were super excited to see that he was collaborating on an exclusive line with one of our favorite online retailers, Net-A-Porter. Since the line just launched today we decided to share with you some of our faves from the capsule collection.

Yesterday, Doo.Ri fêted the completion of her line for Macy’s Impulse. Following Karl Lagerfeld‘s almighty Chanel suit, she’s next in the throttle for a release at Macy’s. The collection embodies her masculine crispness with feminine textures, and the good news is, aside from two jackets, the entire collection is under $100! We caught up with Doo.Ri and asked about the Unkle Karl and her upcoming collections.

After a busy year of redefining and reinventing herself, Carine Rotifeld doesn’t seem to be slowing down in 2012. The former French Vogue editrix recently finished a stint as guest editor for VMAN, where she used “real people” — because as we all know models aren’t actually people — in the spring fashion issue’s editorials. Said “real people” were a combination of celebrities, chefs, mechanics, architects and a fireman; however for the bonus pin-up calendar, Rotifeld turned to her stable of models, including Victoria’s Secret Angel Adriana Lima.

We were already loving the first image from Chanel’s spring 2012 ad campaign — after all, you really can’t go wrong with the pairing of Karl Lagerfeld, Carine Rotifeld, Joan Smalls and Saskia de Brauw. But color. Us. Stunned at the entire campaign. Saskia and Joan prove their posing prowess on pommel horses, uneven bars, ropes, rings and swings — beautifully reminding us all that the 2012 Summer Olympics are on the horizon. Although it’s doubtful that leotarded gymnasts somersaulting through the air will have the elegance, grace and glamour of these two lithe leading ladies.
