>> TIP JAR — A couple of blind items to start your day: "Which designer is so cheap that once, instead of hiring a fitting model, she used an intern with scoliosis? Does she wonder why that line looked a little off? . . . What designer's ex-boyfriend has a shady habit of trying to sneak the condom off in the middle of sex? Should he be arrested for attempted mass murder?" [Village Voice]

>> TIP JAR —A fun little blind item from Oscar de la Renta himself:

One of my assistants, who is a wonderful girl, worked for quite a long time at another couture house. The designer used to make really unbelievable clothes. And it's not that he's not making beautiful clothes now, but I think that their emphasis is not really on selling the clothes, but on selling the accessories and selling the brand. When she saw me working, she said, 'Oh my goodness, you work very differently,' because, you know, every single dress I fit, I work on it. She said [the other designer] never touched the clothes, and I said that's not the designer I knew.

The Stars Align For Rachel Zoe at Harper's Bazaar

>> A little Gossip Girl-style action, straight from the inbox to your screen:

Despite the recent Rachel Zoe/Anna Wintour fashion feud, Harper's Bazaar has had no qualms in taking in the stray fashionista. I guess Editor-in-Chief Glenda Bailey wants to cause a little ruckus in the fashion world. I overheard Ms. Bailey and another editor discussing a shoot styled by, da duh da duh, Ms. Zoe herself.

Will her first editorial styling gig put her up top with the likes of Brana Wolf or confirm that she should stick to dressing Hollywood starlets? My guess is . . . the latter. The issue should be out this Fall.

Sounds like Rachel is doing a throwback to her days at YM — she already styled Gwyneth Paltrow for Bazaar in the July 2008 issue, so maybe a more permanent gig is in the works?
