Kress comes with a long list of luxury credits to his name — before Prada, he was managing director and CEO of Bulgari North and Latin America and president of Fendi North America. The Olsens, clearly impressed with his haute history, created the post especially for him.

“His experience and sensibility will add great value to The Row in its next phase of development,” Ash told WWD. Then MK chimed in, “He quickly became the obvious choice for us and for the brand, having experience in multiple categories which we feel is essential for growth of The Row.”

To think, the Olsens were just looking for the perfect T-shirt when they started The Row nearly five years ago…now they’re luring away top talent from Prada. Our little girls are growing up so fast! Great, now I’m ferklempt. Pardon me while I pop in Double, Double Toil and Trouble. [WWD]

Among the precocious pissants are designers Joseph Altuzarra, Alexander Wang, Chris Benz, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and Pamela Love; musicians Adele, Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Rihanna and most of the Young Money roster — Lil Wayne, Drake and Nicki Minaj; actors Chloe Moretz, Jennifer Lawrence and Community‘s Donald Glover; and hiding out in the media category is Tavi Gevinson. And while Jaden Smith made the cut, his hair-whipping, fireball-throwing sister, Willow, is nowhere to be seen. Other notable exclusions include Glee‘s leading ladies Lea Michele and Chris Colfer, as well as tween fashionistas Elle Fanning and Hailee Steinfeld. Guess they weren’t being disruptive enough.

On Coco Chanel:

“No one wanted to be told by an old lady that miniskirts and jeans weren’t chic. The result was that she lost her power and in the end no one cared about what she did.”

On Yves Saint Laurent:

“He is very middle-of-the-road French-very pied-noir, very provincial.”

On Anna Wintour:

“People I’m really friendly with have faxes. Anna Wintour has one. We speak via fax.”

On Emmanuelle Alt:

“Her style is her big shoulders, long legs, tight jeans, sleeves up to the elbow, one hip out. I personally like her.”

On Carine Roitfeld:

“It would have been difficult to have an ugly daughter.”

On Andy Warhol:

“I shouldn’t say this, but physically he was quite repulsive.”

On Heidi Klum:

“I don’t know Heidi Klum. She was never known in France. Claudia Schiffer also doesn’t know who she is.”

On Kate Moss:

Kate Moss has a lot of courage in the way she throws her life away in a very dangerous way, but that makes her so touching.”

On Jessica Simpson:

“Ecch. I’m not that impressed. I’m not that interested. I’m not that impressed.”

On ex-muse Inès de la Fressange:

“I wish her all the luck in the world, just so long as I don’t have to see her anymore or hear her spoken about.”

On Carla Bruni:

“She was one of the ten supermodels… She has a great education and speaks many languages. She’s perfect for the job of first lady. I even photographed her naked… but they were elegant and she had nothing against it. She couldn’t care less. She’s very cool like that. The photo is beautiful. I can show you the nude of her. I did it for Visionaire in 1998. ”

On Kate Middleton:

“For the royals, apparently the royal blood is not in demand any longer.”

On the Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen:

‘”They don’t have a strong enough image. They still have to make the movie that everybody remembers.”

On himself:

“I have no human feelings.” – Uncle Karl, will you adopt me?

On children:

“If I were interested in children, I would be a godfather.” – Well-played, sir. Well-played.

Mary-Kate Olsen & Ashley Olsen know fashion, and it shows in their exclusive line for jcpenney. Just in time for back-to-school shopping, the design duo released a limited-edition Olsenboye change purse – all proceeds from sales will support jcpenney’s Pennies from Heaven campaign, which gives back to local afterschool programs.

“Every child should have the opportunity to be part of a positive and nurturing environment after school,” said Ashley Olsen. “Through the purchase of an Olsenboye change purse, customers can help support afterschool programs and impact a child’s life,” added Mary-Kate Olsen.

Now YOU have a chance to win one of 10 Olsenboye change purses! Tell us in the comments below how you’d benefit from this adorable piece during school or work. The top 10 commenters will receive a coin purse and our favorite also wins a $50 gift card to Olsenboye. Good luck and happy commenting.

Head of the Class — As and high Bs all around:

Lady Gaga in Mugler — Leave it to Gags to show up shitting tulle in a bodysuit, 24-inch tranny heels and an aquamarine wig. You don’t win the Fashion Icon award by resting on your Hussein Chalayan rebirthing egg laurels.

Daphne Guinness in Abed Mahfouz – Another member of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Tranny Heel, the always impeccable Daphne Guinness chose relatively unknown Beirut designer,  Abed Mahfouz to wonderful effect .

Kirsten Dunst in Patrik Ervell — I feel like I’m experiencing a Kirsten Dunst renaissance. First she wins the top acting prize at Cannes, now I actually like her choice in red carpet attire? What goes on here? Though honestly, I’m always a sucker for a woman in a tux and a high bun.

Karolina Kurkova in Diane von Furstenberg — An emerald, hooded jumpsuit, sashed at the waist? Karolina literally looks like the ghost of Grace Jones…and she very well might be since god knows where the hell that brick house full of crazy is these days.

Chloë Sevigny in Chloë Sevigny for Opening Ceremony — Leather and lace and giving face. Nothing’s wrong with a little free self-promotion, though her lady humps seem to be angling for some attention all their own.

Betsey Johnson in Betsey Johnson — Why the hell not? Betsey looks great — and in all black! — but the tulle ballerina skirt remains in tact, if only a few inches south. But for girls our age, Bets, everything ends up heading south eventually.

Chanel Iman in BCBG Max Azria — Lady and the vamp! Looks like Chanel and Karolina both hopped on the same 70s soul train, but with a bit of leg, a flash of cleav and a shoulder or two, Chanel is ready to steam up some mirrored disco balls.

Call me crazy just as long as you call Michelle Harper perfect. I’m not sure what she’s wearing, but I want one in every color.

Thanks for coming –  Solid effort, solid C‘s, high D‘s

Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen in The Row — I’m convulsing over MK’s gold lamé jacket, I just wish Ash had chosen to accessorize a little more. Hair up, statement necklace and a cat eye never hurt anyone. The Row bags, while cute, also look like mini-briefcases, which for an evening dress, is a little jarring.

Vera Wang in Vera Wang – Vera, Vera, Vera. While I love a cowl neck, this look makes Morticia Addams look like Patricia Goddamn Field. Where’s the color? Where’s the fun? I would’ve taken a beading wedding gown over this funereal frump any day of the week.

Erin Fetherston in Erin Fetherston — The CFDAs might have to instill a ban on designers dressing themselves. Though the dress is lovely — and that bang is flawless — the color washes Erin out completely. Also, another lack of accessories! Does no one wear jewelry anymore?

Expelled — Failing grades, F’s, you

Joy Bryant (and Rachel Roy) in Rachel Roy — For the permanent record, Rachel looks good, not her best look, but she gets a passing grade. Barely. Because after all, she also dressed Joy, who’s going to have to stay after school and bang the erasers. And from the looks of that dress, she might also be banging the janitor.

Tory Burch in Tory Burch — You can try to dress up a burlap sack as much as possible, but then it’s just a burlap sack with some awful polka dots and some even more awful ill-placed beads. Or bottlecaps. What are those actually?

Sessilee Lopez in Zac Posen — One question: why? An old lady dress on a stunning, young supermodel still looks like an old lady dress. And frankly, I doubt any dames of a certain age would be caught dead wearing this. It’s unflattering, there’s too much going on about the bodice and worst of all it looks cheap. Zac, I would like to see you in my office. Bring the butt paddle.

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are living the high life as of late, with a CFDA Award nomination and a successful brood of fashion lines under their boho belts. The sisters, notorious for their grungy, “hobo chic” style, recently dished to Style.com about their inspiration:

Ashley: That moment for us was us waking up, going to school, and not wanting anyone to take our picture. Kind of a piece of protection.

Mary Kate: For me, it was so cold, like the wind chill. How could you not put on 20 things when you’re going from Los Angeles to walking through the snow?

A: Yeah, we were California girls.

MK: I think it was probably that. And laziness.

And there you have it; the purveyors of granny chic themselves have chalked it up to a combination of being cold and lazy.

Yet the Olsens are anything but lazy, competing with the likes of Prabal Gurung and Joseph Altuzarra for the Swarovski Award for Emerging Talent at the CFDA Awards, and micromanaging ever aspect of their fashion line, The Row.

On the success of their multiple lines, including the Row,  Ashley says, “I feel like it’s been this constant slow growth but a consistent growth.” Mary-Kate adds, “all the companies run on their own.” We get it Mary-Kate, you’ve only been in forty two movies. You’re obviously incredibly lazy.

- This is perhaps the creepiest and least delectable treat I’ve seen since Katy Perry‘s Candyland homage in “California Gurls”: Baptiste Giabiconi dipped in chocolate. The idea sounds delicious but the finished product makes me want to throw up (luckily, I already did that after lunch so I’m fine). Is it a statue, or is he crying for help under all those layers of chocolate? Either way, chocolate Baptiste looks sweetly sad. But after all, fame and fortune has a price and that price is clutching his chocolate-dipped hand. [Elle]

- Today in Douche: Alex Pettyfer and his gracious penis. The actor, best known for the cinematic tour de force Beastly starring one Ms. MK Olsen, has the words “thank you” tattooed above his phallus — as revealed in his VMAN cover story — in case he forgets to say it. So kind he is, but you don’t have to say “thank you” to your whores. Just leave the money on the dressing table, they’ll get the hint. [Refinery29]

- Editor Casual seems to be running rampant in fashion as Carine Roitfeld donned corduroy jeans and a “no-name” T-shirt (thank god the shoe came to work) for an interview with a no-name mag about her current state. Turns out she never had any plans to replace Anna Wintour at Vogue (remember that plotline from Devil Wears Prada?), she just likes fucking with us: “I like to provoke. I’m very French. In America, they’re not even allowed to show a hint of nipple in photos. Anna Wintour is the most powerful woman in the global fashion industry, the first lady of fashion. She’s a politician; I’m a stylist. They are two very different jobs. Incidentally, despite all the rumors, she is actually very nice.” What we don’t know is that Anna was hanging from the ceiling the entire time. [Fashionologie]

- If you’re like me and live for the Met Ball but have yet to receive a coveted invitation, you can at least live vicariously through one of its fabulous attendees, fashion icon Daphne Guinness. The kooky, couture-loving heiress will be getting dressed in Barneys windows before heading off to the Gala on May 2nd. How many years in jail do you think I’ll get for busting through that window and stealing a McQueen feather from Daph’s hem? [The Cut]

- Olsenboye, Mary Kate and Ashley’s lower-end retail line, will be launching a webisode series today starring five West Coast fashion bloggers. West Coast and fashion seem oxymoronic to me, but you can check out the first webisode today at 10 am on teenvogue.com. [WWD]

- Vogue‘s Editor-at-Large, Hamish Bowles went one on one with Amar’e Stoudemire of the NY Knicks, and as you’d expect, Hamish totally schooled Amar’e. I mean, Hamish is dunkin’ on him like donuts — I think his fashionable headband might have been the deciding factor. [Refinery29]

Clueless (1995)- If this 90′s classic wasn’t already on your top 10 movies list of style and rich girl ways well then start jotting! Alicia Silverstone is the best prepster out there, and no matter how old we are or how many fashion trends pass by Clueless will always remain a fashion favorite… through knee-high socks, more than enough argyle to handle, feminine school girl blazzers and especially because Britney Murphy was in it too!

Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion (1997)- A little on the dumb-ass side and I’m pretty sure no one would wear as much metallic and glitter as these two on screen best friends, but it’s still fun to watch their adventure in going back to their high school reunion and dominating the Madonna-inspired blasts from the pasts.

Spice World (1997)- Victoria Beckham‘s style may be taking over the style headlines a lot more than the Spice Girls do now, but it doesn’t mean that we would ever forget baby spice, scary spice, ginger spice, posh spice, sporty spice, or any other spices that I’m forgetting in between!

Jawbreaker (1999)- Catty and backstabbing what other way would a girl like their movies, when you accidentally kill your best friend in your favorite pumps?

The Virgin Suicides (1999)- When it comes to Kristen Dunst’s careless ways she makes any film look awesome! Sofia Coppola (director) filmed the movie in an angelic sort of sunlight state, and with the simplicity of the style on the girls, from sundresses to school outfits, the obsession of five boys falling in love with mysterious sisters begins, and they watch them on the road to suicide.

Factory Girl (2006)- Starring Sienna Miller as Edie Sedgwick a muse of all muses for the New York City life style of Andy Warhol. Not to mention, Mary-Kate Olsen gets her five minutes of fame getting to rock the furs and the smoking glam of this crazy 1960′s fashion filled film.

500 Days of Summer (2009)- Zooey Deschanel would be the perfect heart breaking type girl, with her vintage dresses and humorous ways as she completes every girls dream to crush the boy who’s insanely in love with her in nonchalant ways.

Whip It (2009)- Ellen Page plays a rebellious small town girl who creates a wicked life for herself in Austin, TX. And along with Drew Barrymoore and Landon Pigg she rocks her indie-child style with combat boots, random skirts, and bizarre rock band tees!

The Runaways (2010)- When hearing the names Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart you don’t normally think of one on one girl make out sessions or drug addict… which in their case would be a good thing but luckily these two actresses rocked the hell out of bringing the Joan Jett and Cherie Curie’s wild child style to life!

Black Swan (2010)- Obviously what kind of timeline would this be without listing Natalie Portman’s surprise act of dealing with perfection and giving us a mental image of just how good Rodarte ballet wear could be!

On Coco Chanel:

“No one wanted to be told by an old lady that miniskirts and jeans weren’t chic. The result was that she lost her power and in the end no one cared about what she did.”

On Kate Moss:

Kate Moss has a lot of courage in the way she throws her life away in a very dangerous way, but that makes her so touching.”

On Jessica Simpson:

“Ecch. I’m not that impressed. I’m not that interested. I’m not that impressed.”

On ex-muse Inès de la Fressange:

“I wish her all the luck in the world, just so long as I don’t have to see her anymore or hear her spoken about.”

On Carla Bruni:

“She was one of the ten supermodels… She has a great education and speaks many languages. She’s perfect for the job of first lady. I even photographed her naked… but they were elegant and she had nothing against it. She couldn’t care less. She’s very cool like that. The photo is beautiful. I can show you the nude of her.

“For the royals, apparently the royal blood is not in demand any longer.”

‘”They don’t have a strong enough image. They still have to make the movie that everybody remembers.”

On Pete Doherty:

“Gone. His music – the look – is over now. There’s nothing to think about it. It is too late.”

On himself:

“I have no human feelings.” – Uncle Karl, will you adopt me?

On children:

“If I were interested in children, I would be a godfather.” – Well-played, sir. Well-played.

Now this isn’t so much what Britney would look like if she was from the Midwest so much as what Britney will look like in five years. Hair looks good, girl!

How fitting, Sarah Jessica Parker next to a horse. I love the bridle she’s wearing though. Chanel?

After a long day at the secretarial pool, Jennifer Aniston (who actually would be married in Bizarro Midwestern Land) drops by the DQ for a qucik dinner of ice cream and salty tears.

David Beckham‘s dreams of soccer stardom just didn’t pan out after knocking up Victoria in high school. He settled down, working for Vick’s pop’s insurance company and has several mistresses, like this lamb:

Town skank, Tara Reid. Victoria’s seen her in the parking lot of the A&P and has more than once tried to run her down in her Chevy minivan.

Nicole Kidman is currently serving twenty years in jail for murdering her husband whom she claimed was a “latent homosexual.”

No, not this one. John Travolta is still alive and kicking after his third triple bypass and second double chin-ectomy.

Ah, yes, poor Tom Cruise. He came to a grizzly end when Kidman used a hot waffle iron to make grilled cheese with his face. Then ate it.

On a happier note, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are doing just fine. They have twelve kids, and Anthony is 85% sure that at least half of them are his.

After years of living the single life, Ashlee Simpson finally managed to settle down.

She found an unlikely soul mate in Cameron Diaz, but hey, beggars can’t be choosers. Cam may not be the sharpest stiletto on the shoe tree, but Ashlee says she more than makes up for it in the boudoir.

Wild stallion and all-round bad ass, Johnny Depp, can usually be found riding his hog, shooting beer cans or gearing up for a good ole-fashioned lynchin’ with the boys.

As you can see, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are still quite the fashion plates. They even made these dresses! Not that you could tell. Ashley made hers from six discarded king size bed sheets. And MK wrapped a towel around her then tied it with electrical tape. Brilliant.

Paris Hilton, unfortunately lost her mind back in the fifth grade when she started showing up to class without any panties, speaking in a strange baby’s voice and claiming to have invented the phrase “That’s hot.” She’s in a mental hospital where she’s especially popular with some of the…more masculine girls.

Pam Anderson has done well for herself. A successful office manager at a funeral home, she gets all the embalming fluid she likes, which she then uses for throwing homestyle Botox parties.

Eyes were raised in town when Michael Douglas showed up with this young chippy on his arm, Catherine Zeta-Jones. But it turns out they’re just father and daughter who have an incestuous relationship. And that’s old hat. For a second, people thought she might have been Mexican or a Jew. Imagine?

A former Ms. Pine-Sol, Gwen Stefani still has her looks, even if she’s keeping them in her hair and cleavage. But she learned that “a woman’s beauty is the only thing she has or ever will have and once that’s gone, she might as well down a bottle of Ajax and wait for Jesus to come and take her back to Heaven in his divine pick-up truck.” Words of wisdom from her mama:

Sharon Stone. 80 years old and doesn’t look a day over 69.

All I’m saying is that Marky Marc looks like he can PARTY!!!  If you want more of these promiscuous hotties click LOOKBOOKS

It’s a diet pill by the name of Phentermine…

It is approved as an appetite suppressant to help reduce weight in obese patients when used short-term and combined with exercise, diet, and behavioral modification. It is typically prescribed for individuals who are at increased medical risk because of their weight and works by helping to release certain chemicals in the brain that control appetite.

Personal trainers my ass. Celebrities are just popping these pills all day and letting them do the work for them.

Might seem easy but you need a prescription indicating that you are fat.

Side effects include mood swings (like woman aren’t already crazy bitches), restlessness, diarhea, bad taste in mouth, constipation, difficulty sleeping, dizziness, dry mouth, exaggerated sense of well being, headache, nervousness, overstimulation,   sleeplessness, upset stomach…. oh and it’s said to take away years from your life due to all the damage it causes your heart.

I guess nothing really does taste as good as skinny feels but this really does explain why all these celebrity women are complete wackos.

“We wanted to keep it consistent, but change the silhouette a bit,” Mary-Kate Olsen said about The Row’s spring lineup during Paris Fashion Week.

It all looks like the same silhouette to me – long and straight. Was I expecting too much from the Olsen twins? What do you think indies?

1.) She was part of the decision making in canceling The Row’s NYFW show and switched over to Paris Fashion Week.

3.) The Row plus Elizabeth & James.

4.) She attended NYU without ever having to bother with any bullshit that we “upper class” white Americans deal with.

After 24 years of growing up in front of the American public, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen now occupy an influential position in the fashion world — and in the September issue of Harper’s Bazaar the Olsen sisters open up about their successful clothing label, their dream client, and how their mother taught them to dress when they were little.

“I’d love to get Michelle Obama in the Row,” Ashley says. “The simple suits and things. It’s all made in America, so why not?”

“Remember that crazy time when all of us young girls were being followed?” Ashley says. Now that they have both moved to New York full-time, we see them less. “We’re either at home or here at the studio,” Mary-Kate notes. “I think they got bored of us.”

“When we were growing up, our mother taught us never to have your belly button exposed,” says Mary-Kate. “We’ve always been attracted to longer— “Layers, silhouettes,” Ashley says, finishing her sentence. Read the entire interview here

The next night I went with a couple friends to the Belvedere party, which every model and their mother decided to attend. I should have known when I saw on the invite that the Misshapes were the DJs that it would be model central. I mean models to the Misshapes are like gold diggers to investment bankers.  Keep reading…

But more importantly, vodka connoisseur, and one of my favorite memoirists, Chelsea Handler was there along with more former boss Ashley Olsen (no really I used to work for the Olsen twins, and no she didn’t remember me), Estelle, and Matthew Williamson. I really wanted to run up to Chelsea and tell her we’re secret BFFs, but fortunately I didn’t have that much vodka yet.

The good part is they gave us goodie bags with bottles of Belvedere so when we moseyed over to the Paper Planes party which was NOT open bar (tsk, tsk) we could use our bottles to doctor up some soda water on our own.

Nonetheless I loved the new issue. It was nice to see something super colorful and FUN for a change! I love fashion, but sometimes it just takes itself too seriously. But I digress. My new fav DJ Harley Viera Newton was shot by Fernando Lahoz and Walker Brockington for the issue. And she looks HOT!

I wouldn’t be surprised if Mary-Kate Olsen becomes Proactive‘s next spokesperson. The world’s richest twin needs to learn a thing or two about proper face cleaning and care cause her acne was in full bloom at Whole Foods supermarket in Tribeca, NYC. Once she spotted photogs she was quick to cover up her zit filled face. Can any of you out there suggest a beauty regiment for Mary-Kate?

What a surprise!

Mary-Kate Olsen made an appearance at the premiere of Holy Rollers in New York City last night, sans sister and her usual boho threads, looking pretty normal.

While the clothes aren’t exactly her size, MK still looks cute in her leopard print shirt and black pants.

More of this please!

You would think some perve would be jumping up and down to be able to live in Mary-Kate and Ashely Olsen former pillow fighting stomping grounds.

Yeah, not so much. We are in a recession, you know.

The girls have had their Manhattan penthouse on Morton Square on the market since 2005, trying to flip the place for a profit. The 5 bedroom, 4 1/2 bathroom palace in the New York Sky was originally priced at $11.995 million, but now the girls will settle for $8.45 million.

It’s one hell of a place, but we have a feeling it won’t sell anytime soon. We think the twins are going to be stuck with it for a long, long time!

Might as well enjoy it!

Mary Kate Olsen, always the trendsetter, hit the red carpet this week for the grand opening celebration of Otarian in NYC with a bookbag. Don’t know if she was running from a class, but the pack was definitely noted. Wonder if the trend will grow or end on the shoulders of this fashionista?

Above is the new MTV promo pic of Mary-Kate from her upcoming movie, Beastly, a modern day re-telling of Beauty & the Beast. Loving the long hair!

VeryMaryKate.com follows a (fake) day in the life of the Olsen sister while she battles ficticious fights, hypothetical hangovers, and other problems.

 The series contains eight episodes so far, and  I can’t say that I love the comedienne’s MK-esque outfit choices, but the scenarios are pretty funny.

Maybe all black blankets aren’t stylish, but I think Mary-Kate and her boyfriend look pretty good.  I love her buckled boots..and is it just me, or is that a Birkin?

The duo known as Mary-Kate and Ashley are expanding their high-end fashion line, The Row, to include a collection of sunglasses. They’re said to be teaming up eyewear designer Linda Farrow and the line is expected to be ready in time for next spring.

They’re said to be creating only four looks, which would include aviators, oversized, vintage-inspired, and round rims– all of which reflect both of the girl’s personal taste in shade-wear.

Love how dark this is, they both look amazing!
