Let's start with "Project Runway," even though the buzz has died down by now, and it really wasn't a surprising ending at all. By this point, you have hopefully seen all the designs in the Fashion Week show, but if not, feel free to rate them yourself! A lot of Christian's line was predictably over-the-top; the boy sure does love his ruffles. Because he didn't use much color (mainly black and browns) some of the......

First up is "Survivor," because nothing much happened in regards to Yau-Man this week. His team won the immunity challenge, and they went off to be their super-favorite selves for most of the episode. On to "Project Runway," and the final pre-Fashion Week challenge! Two would be going home! Now, anyone who was paying attention to Fashion Week saw that all five of the remaining designers got to show their lines, which is understandable lest......

That headline doesn't seem like anything new, but this model appears to be of a different eating-disorder variety. (Think The Insider-anorexic, not Anna Wintour anorexic) ...

While SFist cringed at the fatal dose of crime littering the Bay Area, it found solace in Hillary Clinton's San Francisco campaign headquarters opening, which featured loads of exposed mammary glands. In other news, SF Taxi Commission ruled that Satan's cab must keep its (in)famous medallion number, 666; and in an un-fashion-forward frenzy, San Francisco Fashion Week (chortle) bars bloggers from covering and getting smashed at their shows and parties, respectively. Also, they found a......

Beloved Jennine from The Coveted writes here about how this year’s San Francisco Fashion Week denied her and other bloggers precious invitations to cover the event or (worse) any of its VIP, open-bar parties. Enough to drop your coke bullet into the toilet, right?! Anyway, this isn’t all that astounding seeing as how SF Fashion Week is notorious for being a tad behind the times (New York City all but begs such bloggers as......

"I, myself, am a huge fan of underwear," writes local entrepreneur Analisa Shah. "Through research, I have learned that silk is very soft, but not the most comfortable for men." Toss out your silken undies, gentlemen, because there's a new brand of undergarment in town: it's called "O," just like the magazine, only not at all related. And it's made of something that "gives the feeling of wearing silk underwear, but also provides comfort......

Ashley Olsen: "Victoria, your bangs are amaze." Victoria Traina: "Huh?" Ashley Olsen: "You know, an abbreved version of 'amazing.'" Victoria Traina: "Whatev, I don't abbrev words that end in -ing." Dude with Hat: "Excuse me, is this the Homeless Chic party? I just wanted to make sure. I don't want anybody to think I'm, like, actually homeless or anything." Victoria Traina: "We are NOT dressed in Homeless Chic, you plebeian. Don't you know who we are?" Dude with Hat: "I know shorty over here is Michelle Tanner, but I have no clue who you are. Were you one of the girls on Flavor of Love? Victoria Traina: "If you don't know who I am, then you prolly don't belong here." Dude with Hat: "Wait a sec, I think I had driver's ed with you at A-Safe Way Driving School in the Sunset. Now I remember you. Everybody in our class thought you were on drugs." Ashely Olsen: "Omg, that was a super-awk townie moment. I'm going to start hanging out with Vanessa now. She's been looking way cuter than you lately, anyway." ...

Socialite Rank awarded Victoria Traina "Chic of the Week" for the Christian Lacroix Haute Couture dress she wore to the opening of the Vivienne Westwood exhibition at the de Young Museum. She also made Vogue's 10 Best Dressed this week on Style.com. Congrats, bitch! ...

As promised, Naomi Campbell came back to town for her very first San Francisco runway walk for our city's night of Fashion Week Live last Thursday -- and as noted by SFist Elaine, she brought Australian model Gemma Ward with her. And Tyson Beckford too! Drew Altizer, as always, was there on the scene, and sends along these pictures from the scene. We're running out of laudatory adjectives to describe Drew (we've already used......

One of our spies spotted model Gemma Ward hopping into a downtown Walgreens yesterday. Gemma was in SF for Fashion Week Live last night at Fort Mason. Their description of Gemma was priceless: "She looked like a homeless person. She's really skinny, and she was wearing a stocking cap in 70 degree weather." ...

--> Our favorite Fox News anchor, Kimberly Guilfoyle, worked the runway for the Heart Truth Red Dress Collection, at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York. The fashion show raised awareness for heart disease in women, which Kim says took the lives of both of her grandmothers. So why didn't we know about this? The fashion show happened on February 2, so we were probably too busy with SFistGate and TourkGate to notice. Good to......

We know we've been talking about the Traina sisters quite a bit lately, but we can't help but comment on the mostly fierce but somewhat questionable fashion sense of the closest thing we'll ever have to the Hilton sisters. (Even though the Traina girls, like, hate being compared to the Hiltons.) This is another photo from New York Fashion Week, and, frankly, we're at a loss for words. ...

The other Vanessa socialite, Vanessa Traina, showed up to New York Fashion Week looking very chic but a kinda rexy. Maybe she should stop hanging out with the Olsen twins? By SFist Elaine Photo from Style.com......

Ha! We finally out-Googled everyone's favorite Newsom watcher, commenter ThatChick! Check out this picture we found of perennial SFist favorite, Kimberly Guilfoyle Newsom Villency and her incipient child (due in about 2 weeks), from Monday the 11th at the Marc Jacobs show for Fashion Week. We'd've tried to get a larger version of the picture for you, but now we fear we may have accidentally downloaded this unsecured picture off a secure site, like an......

A very enthusiastic "HER MOTHER AND I DO!" of support to the genius tipster who passed along the Exclusive Details about the impending Kimberly Guilfoyle-Eric Villency (hereinafter, "the Guilfency") Memorial Day nuptials in Barbados, from Fashion Week Daily! Eric proposed with a 5.2 carat Asscher-cut diamond (huh huh, you said "ass"), which, for those of you in the know, is exactly the same size and shape as Kate Hudson's. Ooh, goody! The big day is......

Not one but two articles in the Sunday Chronicle breathlessly report that our very own lady of sorrows Kimberly Guilfoyle made a potentially-cuddly first appearance during Fashion Week with Eric Villency, the host of the show "iVillage" on the Fine Living channel. (Do we even get that channel out here in SF?) Check out Eric's pouty mug to your left. Villency is a former Calvin Klein and Abercrombie model, and the president of his family's Maurice Villency furniture business. Here's a picture of him in the New York Social Diary with his ex, Olivia Chantecaille. They achieved some sort of notoriety in the social elite when it turned out they'd hired PR reps to place gossip items about themselves in the papers. That's so nice that Kim's finally dating someone who loves being in the media so much. The reports call Kimmie and Eric an "instacouple," but take note of Eric's statements about his apartment to HGTV! Speaking of the furnishings in his 1800 sq. ft. Greenwich Village apartment, he says, "I don't have it in here if I don't love it." A good sign, Kim, a good sign! Watch out, though -- in an interview with the magazine One 2 One, Eric warns, "My worst relationship was with someone who was very moody and negative. She dwelled on things that didn’t relate to us or her life. She couldn’t be happy with me, because she couldn’t be happy with herself." ...

Niall Kennedy finds a San Jose couple who had a Web 2.0 wedding. Let's all wish them luck, because a Web 2.0 divorce could get ugly. If you're still looking for a man in San Jose, San Jose Inside's Single Gal suggests a trip to the Shark Tank. Beth Spotswood knows who she wants, but just misses The Gavster at Medjool. In local events, you had plenty to choose from. Mike Lin dropped by......

Being a blogger by day and fashion correspondent by night is freakin' tiring. While we didn’t make it out to the Palace of Fine Arts Thursday night, we were back and ready for fashion on Friday, and Krissy even made it out to the Jackpine Social Club party at the end of the night to see Alejandro Escovedo. See our all our Friday Fashion Week photos on out Flickr page.......

At the Fashion Week Boutique held in the W Hotel on Saturday afternoon, we boldly faced one of our longtime fears: professional eyebrow shaping. We've seen too many overplucked, scraggly, arc-like slivers to ever have trusted our eyebrows to anyone else before now. But when we spotted Kimberly Jones' mobile eyebrow rescue unit in the corner, a wave of daring washed over us. We did it. We asked Kimberly to give us Eyebrows To Die......

John Vanderslice. Helllooooo...over here...brought to you by SFist. Oh, wait, we don't need to act cool, we've got plenty of readers (thanks for asking). We love them because they love to argue over breasticles! Not only do we bring it with the 'get' local interviews, we bring you news you can use. Please. For everyone's sake. We'd like to think that BarCamp was like a little Burning Man if, um, it was in downtown......

Friday we're all over the place -- some of us are going to more of the San Francisco Fashion Week shows tonight, some of us are going to the book release party for A Popular Guide To Building a Community FM Broadcast Station, all of us are having a great time. Saturday is all about the body for us, as we have even more Fashion Week events all day long, an open house at......

All day long, our colleagues at our day job have been asking why we look so nice today. Ignoring what this implies about our usual appearance, and marvelling at what a difference a shower makes, we have responded to these complimentary remarks with "It's Fashion Week! Duh!" That's right, San Francisco Fashion Week opens tonight and runs through Sunday the 28th. Featuring scores of Spring 2006 collections, rad parties, intriguing workshops (check out Catwalk......

So we had to go put our tale of "San Francisco Secret Service" callback woe up on Scott Stereogum's post requesting stories of calling the numbers in Paris Hilton's hacked Sidekick. While there, we noted that her friend "Nessie Traina," AKA Vanessa Traina, daughter of local romance novelist Danielle Steele, was also listed. She was last spotted at Fashion Week in New York. Of course, the number is a 310 number, which means she's......

If they cancel an international fashion show that no one's heard of, does it make a sound? The San Francisco International Fashion Week extraganza, originally scheduled for this week, have been postponed until March 2005, supposedly to show solidarity with our striking hotel workers. ...

San Francisco hasn’t always enjoyed deserved recognition as a fashion center. Come on people! Millions and millions of you are reading this while sporting San Francisco based brands such as Levi’s, Old Navy, Gap, Banana Republic, Gymboree, and bebe. Seeking to garner credence with more serious fashionistas San Francisco is playing host to its very own Fashion Week. What could be better? Beautiful people, great design, and more parties than even SFist could possibly......
