Gossip Girl: “The Empire Strikes Jack” Fashion Round-Up


This week we learned that dirty uncle Jack has magical powers over women. So much so that they would betray their own children. I’m intrigued to know what these powers are: I suppose they are coming from inside his pants. We also learned that all models are evil and that they like to drug and take advantage of little virginal fashion designers. And also that everyone gets a second chance in fashion (‘tis true, just ask Marc Jacobs).

Blair’s mom returned this week for Eleanor Waldorf Designs’ (loved Eleanor’s “Feed the masses, eat with the classes.”) pop-up show for her junior line, enlisting Blair to handle the guest list. You’d think someone like Eleanor Waldorf would have a powerful PR person handling these things (perhaps the same person that invited Amy Astley from Teen Vogue)? So Blair returned to her awesome scheming this week by hiring high-end Valentino wearing escorts (“prostitutes are people too”) to attend her mother’s fashion show (I’m sure it has happened before in real life. Roberto Cavalli’s clientele often looks very suspicious to me).
Blair, in her new role as a fashion show pimp, showed up dressed to kill in a gorgeous Isabella Tonchi tribal print dress. That dress even helped her acquire some Columbia minions. And remember, when it comes to headbands, “the bow goes on the right.”
