- Rumor has it Kate Moss will cover the September issue of Vogue. Rumor also has it Kristen Stewart will cover the September issue of W. Which goes to prove sometimes rumors can be great and sometimes they can be absolutely awful. Respectively. [Styleite]

- At the McQueen press preview this morning, Stella McCartney and Sarah Burton shared their thoughts while Philip Treacy got a little misty-eyed over the Andrew Bolton-curated Alexander McQueen:Savage Beauty. Instead of a chronological trek through McQueenland, Bolton organized the exhibit into six themes: The Romantic Mind, Romantic Gothic, Romantic Nationalism, Romantic Exoticism, Romantic Primitivism, and Romantic Naturalism. I’ll be live-tweeting my experience at the Met tomorrow morning if you’re interested in seeing what Romantic Hysterical Crying looks like over Fashion Indie‘s Twitter, @fashionindie. [Style File]

- W‘s longtime fashion and style editor, Alex White, is leaving the mag to pursue her own projects — possibly including an online magazine — but fear not, fellow obsessive editorial lovers! Vogue contributing editor Edward Enninful — whose recent work includes the stunning “The Blackallure” for Vogue Italia — will take her place starting May 1. White has been with W since 1994 and has helped ease what has been a slightly rocky transition from the Patrick McCarthy to Stefano Tonchi era. According to both White and Tonchi, however, the split is amicable and mutually agreed upon. [WWD]

Former model and aspiring actress January Jones has not one but two covers for W‘s special “Design Now” May issue, photographed by Craig McDean and styled by Lori Goldstein. I’ve always been on the fence with Jones and though I still consider her the worst part of Mad Men, her two striking covers and her red carpet style are beginning to win me over. What can I say? — I’m a sucker for an austere haircut and a pair of gams til next Tuesday.
