Fabsugar has been on a Who Wore It Better marathon! Take your choice between Heidi Klum or Jennifer Hudson in a Michael Kors jumpsuit (yes, we said jumpsuit), Audrina Patridge or Mischa Barton in an Alexander Wang metallic dress (Audrina just looks cold) and Dancing With the Stars’ Julianne Hough or Susan Sarandon’s daughter Eva Amurri in a Jay Godfrey bow dress (this is our favorite look).
Check out party pics from Karl Lagerfeld’s private Party at London’s Nobu on Catwalk Queen here and here (more on Emma Watson’s foxy new look to come).
Fashionista points out that Nina Garcia is kind of contradicting her own magazine on Project Runway. On last night’s ep the judges threw some “passe” fashions at the wannabe designers to remake, the only problem is that many of these fashions have been recently featured in Elle!
Dita Von Teese makes us all jealous with her holiday pinup parade, and Lipstick Panic is no exception.
Check out Britney’s Versace bag over at TheBagLady.
The Philadelphia Museum of Art makes room for fashion, as does The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Project Runway is auf and running, and some stereotypical personalities have already been defined – not to mention frontrunners for the prize. This year? To have your collection sold on Bluefly.com (shoppers win either way!), a feature in Elle magazine (Judge Nina Garcia’s home tome), $100,000 to start their own line and a car (in New York? Why?). Guest judge Monique Lhuillier added her expertise to the panel this week, so we’re excited to see who else they get. We’ll be revealing some spoilers each week in the column so if you’ve haven’t watched the night before’s episode, it’s best to keep scrolling. If you saw the show and are eager to discuss, or just don’t mind being spoiled – keep reading for more photos and our recap.

Season 4 of Project Runway premieres on Wednesday, have you checked out the new designers yet? There’s Chris, who seems like a combination of Jay and Austin. There are a few Parsons graduates: Jillian, Marion, and Simone. Maybe they’ll go up against FIT kids Kit and Kevin. There are definitely more smirky smiles than genuine grins with this group, so watch out! Be sure to check back after every episode for our recap of the design and drama! The judges say we’ll be surprised with some of their choices this season.

Earlier this week we showed you some of the new items from Project Runway Season 2 winner Chloe Dao’s line for QVC, and now comes news that the season 3 winner Jeffrey Sebelia is launching a lower-priced contemporary line named after himself. His more upscale Cosa Nostra line attracts celebs like Gwen Stefani and Tommy Lee, but this new line is targetted toward “a younger customer who cannot afford Cosa Nostra” Sebelia told WWD. “Girls today shop at H&M and Urban Outfitters, and then go to boutiques and put it all together,” he said, and this new line caters to that demographic.
Silk dresses with a ’40s sensibility, ruffled skirts, tank tops, loose blouses, and jean shorts are all among the 100 pieces of the collection. The price range is $38 to $78. Jeffrey’s clothes are currently available at the Steve Martino & Assoc. showroom in the New Mart in New York, but he hopes the new line will sell in a range of stores. We’ll keep you posted!

Chloe Dao, winner of Project Runway Season 2, was back on QVC today with new items from her line. I bought a silk dress of hers the last time around and received so many compliments on it that I’m definitely going to choose one of these new items. It really fit like a glove and the quality was terrific. Out of her new collection I’m eyeing up this Deep V silk dress with ribbon trim, $67.32, and this Ribbon Trim Sweater, $42. Chloe’s Simply Chloe Dao collection is part of what seems like a push at QVC to integrate younger, more hip and fashionable designers to their repertoire, like Carson Kressley and Heidi Klum.

With the “Project Runway” season premiere less than two months away, this easy read features a collection of fashion do’s and don’ts, written in a witty, but direct tone from the PR judge herself.

In the latest “Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style”, Tim and Veronica help out a married mom of two, Nicole, to take time for herself and dress with confidence. Nicole seemed to think she was flabby (not so!) Tim made Nicole toss out all her capri pants, which were her ‘uniform.’ Tim says a uniform is fine, provided it works for you. And for Nicole, it did not. Nicole also had a hard time taking any time for herself, even enjoying a pedicure was too much because she felt she could be doing mom-things. Tim reminded Nicole that a good foundation is needed, something I think will appear in each episode. Nicole was outfitted appropriately, and then off to Macy’s where they went to shop (Lucky!)

Always-stunning Heidi Klum surely succeeded in project: red carpet in a stunning Dior strapless number. It was nice to see a model and fashion-television personality do homage to a big name coutourier amidst some more low key names at the Emmy Awards. Nominee Mary-Louise Parker, of “Weeds”, kept the fashion stakes high with a curve-hugging Dolce and Gabbana gown, which she told E! didn’t leave room for figure fixers like Spanx. Luckily she doesn’t need them. And finally, in an eye popping cherry red, Kathryn Morris, of “Cold Case”, looked hot.
