When Catherine Malandrino‘s name failed to show up on the New York Fashion Week calendar there were a few rumblings in the blogosphere. But when, last week, Racked started reporting on her closed store, late payments, and disgruntled staff rumors really started to swirl. Now, it sounds like Elie Tahari is in serious talks to buy Malandrino’s entire business. It’s not the first investor with whom Malandrino’s flirted. Last year, the designer brought on an investment banking firm and almost signed a deal with Kellwood, but this deal sounds more promising. Tahari’s been trying to grow his business (perhaps, as WWD speculates, spurred in part by his rival Andrew Rosen’s smart investments in everything from Olivier Theyskens to Proenza Schouler) exponentially this past year with new stores and ecommerce, and acquiring a brand like Malandrino, with loyal fans, standalone stores and an overlapping customer base, is one smart way to do so.
Amber.Stardoll- Congrats to Jenna Fischer aka Pam on "The Office." Jenna and her hubby, Lee Kirk just welcomed a son, Weston Lee on September 24! Jenna's rep said, "Mom and baby are doing great!" And there's a fun twist: Jenna's real life pregnancy has been written into "The Office," Pam and Jim are now expecting a baby boy! We can't wait to see how the new season of "The Office" will play out with Jenna's real life baby boy and her TV baby boy! So awesome! (people)

Well that was fast. About twelve hours after confirming that Jason Wu will in fact design a one off collection for Target, the store released this sketch. The black cocktail dress is classic Wu (and Audrey Hepburn) and the close cropped hair with sharp black spikes looks like it was pulled right off his spring runway. Only five months to go until we see the whole thing! (Or less, given the Internet’s love of leaks.)
ElleGirl- Nobody else can quite compare building houses to writing songs like the ever-so-inspiring frontman Andrew McMahon. Jack’s Mannequin releases their third album October 4th entitled People and Things and kicks off their headlining fall tour this week with The Hartford Symphony Orchestra. Check out more about the band’s journey, and take a look inside the artist’s head with us.

If you turned off your computer for the weekend, didn’t check your phone and/or remained totally cut off from any and all Paris Fashion Week coverage, you may not have heard that Kanye West staged his first fashion show. DW by Kanye West, named for the rapper’s late mother, debuted in the library of the Lycée Henri IV on the Left Bank of Paris. Beyoncé and Jay-Z did not sit front row, as rumored, but plenty of other A-list stars, like the Olsens, Alexander Wang, Joseph Altuzarra, Azzedine Alaia and most top editors and buyers, did. West’s casting was equally as impressive.

When Opening Ceremony’s Humberto Leon and Carol Lim were named creative directors of Kenzo this summer, even the fashion pack—who’s devoted to all things OC—was a little surprised. But yesterday, in Paris, Leon and Lim offered a tight, colorful, well-received collection topped off with the only thing fashion loves more than OC: Chloë Sevigny. The duo went print heavy for spring, with over-sized fishnet prints in various colors on playful jackets, pants and dresses before moving into short, sporty looks with angular anoraks and funky baseball-like caps. There was a new interpretation of this season’s must-have, the peplum, wrapped around skinny khakis and an orange pencil skirt or flaring out from a yellow knit top. Parachute-like pants came in green and blue silk and their volume was mimicked on athletic-looking heels for the ultimate mix of sporty and cool. The collection was, in fact, so good that despite the earth-shattering news that Chloë Sevigny’s now a brunette, the clothes were the number one topic of conversation—at least until this morning. Click here to see the whole collection!
