Congratulations to Reese Witherspoon, who got married this weekend to Hollywood agent Jim Toth. Reports are that the fashionable star wed in a custom dress by Monique Lhuillier, which fits her classic style. If pictures should surface of the dress we’ll keep you posted!
· Congratulations as well to super-stylist Rachel Zoe and her husband Roger Berman, who welcomed their first child, a son named Skyler Morrison Berman. The new parents released a statement saying “Mom and Dad ‘LITERALLY’ could not be happier or more in love with their son!”
· The world lost one of its greatest icons last week, when Elizabeth Taylor died of congestive heart failure. The star was at the forefront of the collaboration between celebrities and fragrance companies; over her lifetime she released no less than 12 different perfumes. WWD has a retrospective of Taylor’s involvement in beauty and fashion.
· Bad news for Dolce and Gabbana – they are under investigation in Italy for tax evasion and fraud, with the decision expected this Friday. It’s rumored that the designers could face actual prison time if convicted.
· If you were wondering what Carine Roitfeld was going to do after leaving French Vogue, now you know: she’s going to be working for Barney’s! Reports are that she’ll be styling both windows and catalogs for the store.
