Fashion Scoop: Pharrell To Star In Chanel Film, Kimora Lee Simmons Sets Up Scholarship Fund, Jeremy Scott Launches Second Adidas Fall Collection.


  • It’s probably time to make a dedicated bullet point for Pharrell as every day he’s got something going on. The latest: what’s possibly a follow-up on that news about his link up with Cara Delevingne, the multi-hyphenate artist is set to star alongside Delevingne in a film by Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel. Maybe this is where they will debut Delevingne’s track. Expect it to screen on December 2nd to debut Chanel’s latest pre-collection. (WWD)

  • Fashion designer Joseph Altuzarra is having an amazing year. After being named as the CFDA Womenswear Designer of the Year, he went on to bag a collaboration with Target. And though that landed him in hot water with some plus-sized bloggers(although honestly most of that anger was focused at Target) the designer has pressed on. His next high point comes in his personal life: the designer was just married to his partner Seth Weissman. Rumor says that details are being kept on the DL because Vogue is considering a feature. As of now, we’re just wishing him and his new husband the best. (The Daily)

  • Kimora Lee Simmons is looking out for the future of fashion with her newest venture. The model turned designer has set up a $1 million scholarship fund in her name, $500,000 of which is earmarked for the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising and Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation. Also as a part of the project, there will be an internship program that will see select students working with KLS Collection, which is a high-end womenswear line Simmons had back in 2010 and is reviving for a launch in New York City this November.

Launch Party To Celebrate Virgin Atlantic's New Vivienne Westwood Uniform Collection
  • Vivienne Westwood just released an autobiography — the same one that she admitted to being in a combative relationship in — and it’s quickly becoming a hot topic. The latest: Westwood and her co-writer Ian Kelly are being accused of plagiarizing. In accusations from author Paul Gorman, passages from Westwood’s memoir and Gorman’s The Look: Adventures in Rock and Pop Fashion look eerily similar, changing only a handful of words. Gorman asserts that he respects Westwood and only hopes that credit is given where it is due. (Telegraph)

  • Jeremy Scott is ever busy. Designing collections for Moschino(and releasing a capsule only a week later), designing for his own line, and now he’s dropped his latest line-up for Adidas Original. As always, there’s a bit of kitsch and a touch of crazy, but the dark colored wares are the second release for the Fall/Winter season for the pair. Expect sequins, mesh, leather and some pretty sublime heel options from the offering. (Hypebeast)
