- Marc Jacobs may have once again waded into the trashy, paid sex-worker part of the dating pool. The designer is rumored to be dating Brazilian porn star Harry Louis. [Styleite]

- Chanel has confirmed rumors that Alice Dellal is the newest face of its Boy Chanel handbag campaign, shot by Karl Lagerfeld himself. [WWD]

- Speaking of the industrious Herr Kaiser, more images have been released from his upcoming Karl line. [Vogue UK]

- Iris Apfel may well be nearing the 3,000-year-old mark, but she’s showing no signs of slowing down. The bespectacled harridan‘s MAC cosmetics line will launch on January 5. [Fashionista]

- Miss Sixty’s creative director Wichy Hassan passed away today after a long battle with cancer. [WWD]

- The trailer for the new Halston documentary, Ultrasuede: In Search of Halston, looks fucking awesome — particularly since Liza Minnelli crawled out of whatever gutter she’s been jazz-handing in to provide commentary. [The Cut]

RUNWAY RUNDOWN: Miss Sixty Fall Collection

Melanie Lauren — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 21:23:12 +0000

Sunday night at Bryant Park and everything is a buzz as hoards of fashion junkies tumble into the big tent for the unveiling of Miss Sixty’s Fall line. The lights come up, the punk music blasts its electric beat and all eyes are on Sasha as she stalks down the runway in an acid washed mini and embellished black tights.

Wichy Hassan has worked hard on his rocker-chic street wear but I don’t think I will be donning a pair of his drop-crotch denim jeans anytime too soon. Yards of lacquered black leather, and comic-inspired prints in inventive cuts and shapes moved down the runway. While the show was energetic and entertaining “wearable” wasn’t exactly an adjective that popped into my mind. For those out there brave enough to rock black leather hot-pants and a white mohair trench more power to you. You are the reason I love people watching in the East Village. As for myself I will leave my punk-rock alter ego beneath the white tents and adore the lights and sounds from afar or while thumbing through the glossy pages of fashion magazines.

Tudors hottie, Jonathan Rhys Meyers is striking a pose for Energie Jeans, a division of Miss Sixty. The campaign featurs Jon in a variety of denim-based looks which perfectly capture the rock ‘n roll attitude of the Energie brand.

Indies to Watch: Tanya Dziahileva

So, you’ve all probably been wondering who the twiggy, elfish, almost alien like blonde chick taking over runways and editorials everywhere is. Well, ladies and gentlemen, meet Tanya Dziahileva, the 17-year-old Ukrainian and Polish-Belarussian hot commodity.

I actually had the opportunity to meet Ms. D at the International Model and Talent Association in 2006. At that time, she was recently picked up by IMG models and her career was just beginning, a runway show here and an fashion ad there. But now, you can’t even touch the teenage top model. Ms. D has walked in over 100 shows, including the coveted position as opener for Rag & Bone and closer for Miss Sixty. From New York to Paris and Milan, Ms. D has modeled for nearly every top designer. And snagging a spot on the cover of Russian Vogue ain’t half bad for a girl who hasn’t even hit college yet.

She might look like Tinkerbell, but her youthful, edgy look has got designers everywhere craving more, more, more!
