“I wore an Azzedine Alaïa brown snakeskin dress, which he tortured me for about two months to get into, but at least it’s something I can wear again. I didn’t want some stupid white dress; it seems like such a waste.”

And children: “It’s a bit like going to India — I can’t ever imagine myself going. I just never wanted to have kids.”

These shots of Kate the Great we’re just uncovered from the Dazed & Confused magazine archives. You’ll never guess the stylist!!!

Katie Grand -the former editor of Pop Magazine is never afraid of high fashion, and why should she be?

Not only is she wearing a wooly mammoth fuschia pink Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2009 coat, but she also has Louis Vuitton Fall 2009 bunny ears, as a hair accessory.

Her amazing look is complete with Louis Vuitton Spring 2009 heels and a sparkling pink – barely seen – dress.

We knew Ditto would hit the cover, but we didn’t know it would be in all her naked glory. Thank you Katie Grand for challenging what’s acceptable in high fashion. Beth, ditto.

Katie Grand’s Love, is getting serious: the new Conde Nast UK publication now has a logo (above) and an official launch date of February 19, 2009.

Grand has taken two creative directors and a fashion editor from POP with her on the Love journey, as well as ex-i-D and -Heat editors.

Thanks, Fashionologie.

Katie Grand/Conde Nast’s newest publication is getting some major love from advertisers and might be getting some from i-D mags fashion editor Francesca Burns. Rumors are burning the web stating that she will be joining Love as senior fashion editor-at-large.

This is great news for Love as Frannies background is in styling. She’s worked shoots for W, Italian Vogue, Pop, Arena Homme + before setting a nest at i-D.

The mag which is already getting a shit load of hype will hit newsstands in February for £5.

Katie Grand’s departure from POP magazine means more than just a new editor for the 8 year old magazine, it means a final shovel to the face for the flailing magazine.  Hint reports that the initial deal to keep the magazine going has “hit a snag” and POP will finally burst.

On a side note, Katie’s biannual for Conde Nast UK finally has a name and that name is LOVE.  Hmm a fashion magazine names LOVE from the creator of POP.  One named wonders seem to be the dish dejour for the UK this fashion season.  Expect LOVE to hit shelves in March.
