What’S your karaoke Song?
EXPLORING THE MYSTIQUE!
With Fran Lebowitz What do you during the day? I wait for it to be night. I prefer it to day. What do you like about coming to these shows? I’m interested in clothes, I know you’re not supposed to be, but I am. I know that’s not a reason people come to these things anymore, but I The Daily’s fave really am interested in clothes. front-row DvF Do you go to department stores in Manhattan cameo! to check things out? No, no, no. I hate to shop. I don’t buy clothes.I like to look at them. I’m the Jimmy Swaggart of clothing. You’re too young to know who that is. I know who that is! What’s the last thing you bought? I have my clothes made. I’m not a big shopper. If the economy was dependent on people like me, it would be the shape it’s in now. Do you have a signature karaoke song? I’ve never been to a karaoke bar. I just found out in the last few weeks that people actually sing at them. I thought that people lip synched. That’s how distant I am with that kind of activity. What about a piano bar? I have a horrible voice. I would never sing anywhere besides my own home. Do you sing in your own home? Everyone sings, that doesn’t mean everyone should sing in public. What kind of music do you sing there? I don’t know if you could call it music. I can’t stress to you enough what a bad voice I have.

GOING OFFLINE!
SMALL TALKING! With Ariel Foxman What have you been having for lunch lately? Altoids. How was your vacation? I went to Marfa, Texas and Costa Rica for the first time in August. I also went to the Dia Lightning Field in New Mexico. It’s a 24-hour art exhibit in the desert—there are metal poles in the ground, and lightning comes… Did you ever watch Saved By The Bell? Mia Moretti Of course! As a kid? I watched it in college in reruns. I was obsessed with paperbag-waist pants, the Z. Cavariccis. I had to have them. I had them in brown and gray, and I thought I was cool in high school because of it.

With Samuel L Jackson What brings you to Y-3? I like the clothes— and I just happen to be off work today. I’m working on a Broadway show called The Mountaintop. Any new interests? Tumblr. I’m about to get one! I know how to email and text, but I’m not very tech-savvy. Are you on Google Plus? What’s that? It’s like Facebook. Oh, no. I don’t do any social media. I don’t want to give people I knew 30 years ago a way to hit me up.

FLYOVER STATES! With Franca Sozzani How much of America have you visited? Nevada, Texas, California, and Pennsylvania…When you travel outside of New York, it’s completely different. When you leave Milano or Rome or Venice and you go in the country, it’s another life. They don’t care about fashion, they don’t know about everything. That’s not even true— they know about everything, they just have another life. What’s your karaoke song? I just sang once, with Edward Enninful of W Magazine. We did a song—“I don’t care if you’re black or white….” once in Paris.

You have the best seat in the house! Thanks! I’m sitting on my boyfriend. He’s a good cushion. I have a ticket here, but I didn’t RSVP for him so we’re sharing. How did you meet? I was a fan of his band for years. He always had a girlfriend. When I found out he was single, I stalked him until he gave me the time of day. We’ve been together for nine months now. Define stalking. I met him on the street and started texting him all the time. How was your first date? We walked past Buckingham Palace in the snow at 3 a.m.
Spring 2012 Beauty Alert! Don’t shy away from emerald eye shadow! When done right—as seen on Vivienne Tam’s runway—you will make others green with envy. “The makeup look is inspired by the beauty of a Japanese Zen garden. The skin is clean and natural, while the lashes are long and curled,” explained Maybelline New York artist Andy Koh. “The metallic eyes and lips give this look a modern ’70s vibe.” Want it now? Pick up the Eye Studio Color Explosion Luminizing Eyeshadow in Forest Fury and apply the gold and green shadows to the upper lid lightly. Then add the copper shade from the Eye Studio Color Plush Silk Eyeshow palette in Irresistibly Ivy to the upper crease and the outer corner of the lower lid to get a glowy effect.

First, let’s clear the air about a few things: How do you feel about short people? [laughs] I was really shocked when I saw those articles. According to W, you made a negative comment about “fat” people; to British Elle, you allegedly said, “I think old people should just be old and go away.” I was like, ‘What?’ I don't really read gossip, but I was really sad, because I don’t feel that way, and people were saying horrible things. If I really meant it, I wouldn’t say it—I’m not that stupid. It was a joke that was blown out of proportion. I’m a nice person. I always try to be honest and real—I’m not bitchy. But then I realized, ‘OK, I have a voice now.’ In a way, it’s good that this thing happened because it was a lesson for me. Now I’ll use it for my positive message that I want to spread to the world. You seem very lovely. Maybe it’s jealousy? That could be true. How do you do it all? Texting, meditation and fun parties. I make quick decisions, and I work with a great team. On a typical day; I wake up, check my e-mail, have some coffee, go to the gym and then eat breakfast—fruits or whatever. Sometimes, I’m in three different countries in one week. I go to Paris and Japan once a month, and I have a house in London. Are you a little bit ADD? No! I do lots of different things, but I’ve done all of them for a long time. I started with Vogue Hommes in Japan five years ago, and I’ve worked with Gaga basically from the beginning. And then all the editorials…I keep adding things! And next year, you’re launching your own collection. I can't really describe it, but it’s different from what’s around. It’s a whole experience. Can’t wait to see it. Do you ever get nervous? No, never. I’m a very positive person. Not even your first Mugler show? [laughs] OK, maybe
GAGA!
the first one, a little bit! But Gaga was more nervous than I was. She plays in front of billions of people every day, but she wanted to throw up. Why? She had never modeled before, but she worked it like a drag queen. Do you really find assistants and models through Facebook? How else do you find people? I don’t look at CVs—I ask for Facebook profiles instead. If you don’t have one, you shouldn’t be working for me. Facebook is the easiest way to find out what’s happening in the world—and what’s cool and what’s not. I have a team in London, Paris, Japan and New York, but it’s small, and they’re all young. I like working with young people, because they’re free and fearless. Have you always hired this way? It began when I was creative directer for the launch of the McQ brand. Lee [McQueen] commissioned me to do that whole thing. We needed cool people modeling the clothes, so I went to MySpace. It sounds very normal now, but then, no one was doing it. I miss Lee so much, my God. It’s crazy. I could not go the [Costume Institute] exhibition. It was too emotional. I don't think he’s dead. You’ve encountered more than your fair share of fashion legends. Did you ever connect with Manfred [né Thierry Mugler] before the show? I want to meet him properly after a few seasons, so I have something to show and get his opinion. I’d love to meet him, for sure. Gaga and I called him five minutes before the show in January. We were like, we love you! I toned the collection down at the beginning, because I thought, ‘How can I make this better than what was done before?’ It’s an honor. I wanted to take the Mugler job because I wanted to show people that even a hairdresser could take over a brand if the hairdresser has vision. What else would you like to do next? I want to work on a movie, for sure. It’s not a dream anymore, because it could happen. Obviously, I need to find the right director, but if my managers let me take six months to two years off... You filmed Gaga’s “You and I” video in Springfield, Nebraska. What was that like? Our base camp was a local school, and it was filled with TV cameras and all the kids from the area. It felt very weird that people wanted to take a picture with me, but these kids were so passionate. It was a beautiful experience. In the past, I was creating things for myself. Now, I have followers on Facebook and Tumblr, and in the last few months, I’ve started getting recognized on the street in Manhattan.
Thanks, in part, to Gaga. How often are you in touch? We’re always texting random, abstract, funny things. We don’t have proper meetings. I know her schedule and where she is, and if I’m around, we’ll see each other. If not, we’ll be in touch virtually. I tend to go to a lot of the big stuff that she does. What do people ask you about her? Before, it used to be, what is she really like? What is she like without all the costumes? Now, people know—it’s always her. She’s really open. Where do you see Gaga’s look going as she gets older? I have no idea. I don’t know what she’s going to wear tomorrow! Could you ever walk in those shoes? I’m really not good with high heels. I’ve tried a few times. I was the ugliest! What do you do for fun? I work, but I don't think of it that way. Every day is fun. You bike! Yes! From Tribeca to the George Washington Bridge. Do you watch TV? No, I watch YouTube. I like secret stuff about NASA and aliens. You made a video for your men’s Mugler collection that was posted on Xtube. Will you collaborate with them again? Yes. I hated that people went there to see porn, because we didn’t make porn. You can see a bit of ass and beautiful bodies, but it wasn’t f***ing. Xtube was so supportive. They designed a page, and it got crazy hits. They’ve come back to me, and we’re going to do something else. Is fashion boring these days? It’s safe and commercial, but it’s not boring. It feels like we’re on the end of this circle before something new happens again, and that’s so exciting. We are worried about what’s going to happen to us with the economy. We have to think about selling, although I’m not interested in the business side. Nicola’s pop-up shop presented by BOFFO Building Fashion is open now until Sept 21 at 50 Walker Street in Tribeca.

FABO UL US LIFE Photography by Giorgio Niro
He designed Madonna’s Sex book, helped Liz Tilberis revamp Bazaar, and directed those ultra-sexy CK ads. (How did you spend the '90s?) Even today, the unstoppable Interview editorial director, Fabien Baron, is still doing more in a year than most of us do in a lifetime.

It’s pronounced Bah-rone, correct? Yes, Bah-rone. Not Bare-un? Yes, Bare-un. Wait, which is it? I don’t care. I really don’t. I’ve been here 30 years so I am totally used to Fabe-ee-ann Bare-un. [laughs] As long as their check clears, am I right? Between Interview and your creative shop, Baron & Baron, you’re an awfully busy guy. Are you an organizational mastermind? No, no, no. I’m terrible at organizing, terrible at schedules. I have a person fully dedicated to making sure things get done. Probably the reason I can do so many different things is I don’t think about what I have to do, so I don’t worry about it. Otherwise, I’d be a freak. Instead, I just enjoy the thing that I’m doing when I’m doing it. They push me here to do this, they push me there to do that. I don’t rule my life. They do. Some editors find it hard to put out a mag every month. Are they lazy? No, no, no. Not at all. There are a lot of things I don’t do as an editor that others do. I don’t go to many parties. I don’t sit down and schmooze people for hours and hours at dinners and lunches. I take all that time out and put my focus on the product. I do the shows, I do a couple of things, but I’m not out there the same way, let’s say, Stefano [Tonchi] is. That’s a job on its own. If I would have to do that, forget it. Do you drink? Not really, no. And you have to drink a lot! I do it once in a while and have a good time. I love to be social and see people, but I think the entire job has been shifted. It’s become more about that than about the quality of your product. It’s about who you know.
If I had the same budget as American Vogue, I could put out twelve issues with what they spend on one. You never had a party monster phase? No, no, no. I started working when I was 17. I moved to New York in the eighties when it was crazy. Even then I was not going crazy. You’ve worked with the late Liz Tilberis at Bazaar, Franca Sozanni at Italian Vogue, and Carine Roitfeld at French Vogue. Who was your favorite? Oh, I don’t know. I really enjoyed each one of them for who they were, in Liz’s case, and who they are for Carine and Franca. Liz and I had a very good understanding. The rest of the Bazaar team—Tonne Goodman, Paul Cavaco—was really on their game as well. It felt like we were at a turning point, whereas now, we’re rewinding and rewinding and rewinding. Do magazines bore you? I’m very, very seriously looking into the internet and at the iPad, because I think that if magazines don’t become something more interesting, a lot of people are going to let go of them, which is already the case. And a lot of advertisers aren’t interested in them, either, because they’re a bit redundant and there isn’t a lot of effort put into the product. Interview once had a monopoly on breaking new talent. Now, every kid with an ounce of it is talked about the second they hit YouTube. That’s why magazines have to become a little bit more than just reporting or saying, this is the new person. You have to do something with these people. When you see an actress in Interview, it’s the way you’ve never seen her before. It’s not just a bunch of pictures of her in a nice dress skipping across some field with flowers in the background. Are you spending a lot of money? No. [laughs] That’s the difficult side. If I had the same budget as American Vogue, I could put out twelve issues with what they spend on one. You’ve been the creative director of stores, perfumes, a furniture line—
fa S H i o n w E E K D a i l y. c o m
any advice for aspiring polymaths? It’s all a matter of point of view—your own way of looking at things. The challenge is to have an opinion, stick to that opinion and to have the tools with you to describe that opinion—to put it on paper, or a fragrance bottle, or a commercial. Describe the Fabien brand. Bold. Classic. Beautiful. A little bit controversial. There’s a sleekness to it. I don’t think minimal is really the appropriate word, even though I got labeled that quite a bit because of my work for Calvin Klein over the past 20 years. So is the drama over at Interview? Oh, yeah, a long time ago. It’s seems like only yesterday we were interviewing Glenn An image from Madonna's Sex tome O’Brien for this very magazine! Yeah, that was a strange moment. I mean, Glenn is an old friend of mine. You worked at Barneys together? Yeah, and I've used him as a writer for forever. I still don’t know what happened there. All I know is, one day he worked it out that I was no longer working there, so I left, and Karl [Templer] left too. That was it. Then, Ryan Brant came back to us a couple months later and said he wanted to talk to us about the magazine. I said, 'You must be kidding! There’s no way!' But we had three or four meetings and Ryan had all the right points to convince us. And it’s been smooth sailing ever since? Yep. Very easy. How did [Interview's former creative directors] M&M take it? They were really upset at me when I saw them at the shows afterwards, but I said, 'Listen, I’ve got nothing to do with it.' They came back to us. Honestly, I didn’t want to do it, but Ryan had really good arguments. So we put down a set of rules that everyone respects and everything’s great. You’re not a yeller, are you? No, no, no. There are too many things to do for me to bother with politics and all that nonsense. At the time, it was framed in some quarters as the art side usurping editorial. Did that bother you? You’d been an editor before. Yeah, that’s also ridiculous. I’ve worked in magazines for 30 years; I know a little bit. Because I do good graphics, I cannot do something else? And look at Interview: Not so bad! Are you having fun? Of course! I don’t do anything if it’s not fun. I can’t. If I really wanted to do a magazine, maybe I should go and do my own, or a bigger magazine. You know, go back to Vogue. But I’ve done that! I did the French, the Italian...Anna is doing the American and she does it all. Let’s talk fragrance. Who in fashion should launch one? Everyone already has. I mean, at this point, I could have one. What would it smell like? Not floral, that’s for sure. Kind of church-like—musky, woody. How does it typically work? The label comes up with a concept and positioning, and from there, we start on the bottle design. The names are a problem because all of them are taken. It comes down to what’s legally possible at the last second. Do you wear cologne? I wear a couple. Comme des Garçons’ Avignon, Gucci…I don’t wear any of the fragrances I’ve done, though.

It’s all in
THE EYES! In case you haven’t heard, the iconic Great Lash Mascara is celebrating its 40th anniversary this season—and it’s never looked younger. Let’s take a look back at Maybelline New York’s greatest phenomenon, shall we? BY TANGIE SILVA BY THE NUMBERS!
1.7: number of seconds a Great Lash tube is sold in the United States 15: years won Allure’s Readers’ Choice Award 83,000: votes for best drugstore brand mascara on Glamour.com’s 2011 beauty poll 20 million plus: number of tubes sold each year
AND WE QUOTE! “It’s my favorite. It goes on clean, not clumpy. And I can curl my lashes afterwards and it doesn’t come off.” —Amanda Seyfried
PROFESSED SUPERFANS! Kate Beckinsale Mary J. Blige Kat DeLuna Jenna Elfman Selena Gomez Jill Hennessy Jennifer Love Hewitt Jennifer Hudson Famke Janssen January Jones Kim Kardashian Dylan Lauren Kelly Lynch Demi Moore Nicole Richie Chloë Sevigny Amanda Seyfried Jamie-Lynn Sigler Gabrielle Union Naomi Watts
“I have tried so many different mascaras and often switch, but…I stopped off at a drugstore and bought Maybelline’s Great Lash and love it! It’s all about layering: First I apply one coat then add two more. I like volume! This mascara is very affordable and works great!” —Kim Kardashian “There will never be another Great Lash! It binds my naturally curly lashes to my fakes.” —Kevin Aviance, drag queen “It’s the must-have beauty accessory for fashionistas this fall.” —Vivienne Tam, designer
GREAT LASH THROUGH THE AGES! 1915: T.L. Williams goes into business with Maybelline, which he named for his sister Maybel. It was her idea to develop an easy-to-use product that darkens lashes. (Grazie!)
1917: Maybelline Cake Mascara, the first modern everyday eye cosmetic, debuts. It's available only through mail-order, but women begin asking for it in drugstores. By 1932, it is in stock!
1971: Maybelline’s water-based Great Lash launches in the U.S. The iconic pink and green packaging is inspired by Lilly Pulitzer.
2008: The U.S. Olympic synchronized swimming team uses Great Lash's waterproof formula while performing.
2009: Meet Great Lash BIG, the original product and packaging…just with a larger wand.
2011: Vivienne Tam, Max Azria and Tracy Reese create a limitededition collection of the mascara inspired by their own collections— avec the lime green top!—which sells at Target for $6.99.

GOT VEINS? Get the Scoop! How do you determine what procedures are needed? At your consultation, your symptoms will be discussed, affected areas will be examined, and, if necessary, a Doppler Duplex Ultrasound Scan will be ordered. The physician will tailor a treatment program based on the obtained information. Will insurance cover my treatments? Most insurance policies have different requirements to qualify. If your condition is considered “medically necessary,” our NYU Vein Center administrative experts in dealing with insurance matters, will submit all the pertinent data on your behalf. For those few insurance companies that we do not accept, the NYU Vein Center will work with you to help you maximize your reimbursement. Why do i need to get an ultrasound scan? An ultrasound scan (not x-ray) provides easily obtainable information as to the underlying venous problems that result in what you see. The ultrasound, which looks at direction of blood flow, can pinpoint the source of your varicose veins. The ultrasound information, along with your symptoms and varicose vein patterns, will facilitate and aide the physician to tailor the appropriate therapy at its source. Treating the problem at the source allows the treatment to be more efficient, effective, and less painful than the previous traditional methods of vein stripping. i’ve had my veins treated, should i follow-up? Because venous disease is progressive and there is no cure, we recommend regular follow-up visits. There are medical and minimally invasive methods to decrease symptoms and improve your quality of life by reducing the number of new varicose veins. At the NYU Vein Center, our staff revisits with ALL our treated patients several times during the first year and then annually. By careful follow-up of our patients, we can discover underlying treatable issues that will decrease the development of new varicose veins and their accompanied symptoms. Why should i wear compression hose? Vein specialists agree that the use of graduated compression hose can reduce varicose vein symptoms and can help delay the time for the development of new ones. These special stockings exert most of the pressure at the ankle, gradually decreasing in an ascending fashion. This graduated effect decreases New York University Vein Center, 530 1st pooling of blood in the leg, increases venous Avenue, Suiteand 6D,improves NY, NY,circulation. 10016 return to the heart, To book an appointment (212) 263Compression companies havecall: added many 8346 or visit styles, colors, andwww.nyuveincenter.org textures.

Lessons How do you get the paparazzi to stop yelling?
How would you deal with a grumpy publicist?
How long would you wait for a show to start?
What should one wear to a fashion show?
Gran on the Street
We could all use a few etiquette tips during Fashion Week, so we hit the streets of Manhattan to ask these lovely ladies to solve your most pressing dilemmas. BY EDDIE ROCHE What should one wear to a show? I’m not exactly going to fashion shows these days, but something smartlooking. What color should publicists wear? Whatever compliments their aura. What would you say to people who crash fashion shows? Do it! How long would you wait for a fashion show to start? If I’m talking to some interesting people and the designers are good, then awhile. I’d have my cell phone, my notes—I’d keep myself busy. I wouldn’t sit there like a dumbbell!
Ruth
90, retired administrative assistant
What color should a publicist wear? Black. How would you help the photographers in the pit get along? Well, that’s very difficult. What should you do if you see a model fall on the runway? Help her get up, or stay silent. Should people wear sunglasses indoors? Some people’s eyes are bothered by light! What do you say to people who try to crash shows? You can always try, but I don’t approve of it.
FA S H I O N W E E K D A I L Y. C O M
Vera
93, retired fashion illustrator
How would you deal with a grumpy publicist? I would try to appease them, let ’em talk, encourage ’em, and respect the work they do. Should people wear sunglasses inside? Oh, no. First of all, it looks bad, and secondly, it hurts your eyes! How do you deal with crashers? I would poke them on the shoulder and say, “Young man, you really don’t belong here! People paid a lot of money to get in. Would you mind leaving?”
Florence
83, retired teacher
How long would you wait for a fashion show to start? 2 2 0 minutes, tops! Should celebrities get preferential treatment during fashion Week? Yeah. Why not? They probably spent more money on the clothes than somebody like me would. What would you like to say to backstage thieves? They should be prosecuted! How do you get the paparazzi to stop screaming? How about “Shhhh!”?
Some people get grumpy during fashion Week... I can sympathize. I had a similar incident on the bus yesterday. I asked a passenger very politely where she was getting off. We both had walkers, and I was concerned about getting by! She started yelling at me and using bad language. She called me a filthy bastard! I was very upset. I was gonna hit her in the face, but I gave her a good tap on the shoulder instead. She accused me of hitting her, and I said, “Why don’t you just shut up?”
Susan

Margaret

Judy
91, retired executive assistant
Should designers send thank-you notes after the show? Only to the media. I wouldn’t need a thankyou note to go to a fashion show. It would be my pleasure! What’s the best way to recover from a runway fall? The way Carrie Bradshaw did on Sex and the City. Should people wear sunglasses indoors? I do it whenever I want to appear important and mysterious. What would you do if someone was in your seat? Ask them please to leave and if they didn’t, I would step on their toes.
