Michael Kors fashion show

Michael Kors fashion show

The Michael Kors fashion show Tuesday should have been called “Welcome Back from the Hamptons” as Shoshanna Lonstein Gruss, Liz Cohen, Helen Lee Schifter, Olivia Chantecaille, CeCe Cord, and Jamee Gregory tucked away their Hermes beachtowels and donned Tod’s loafers, tweed blazers, and crocodile bags for a front-row seat. With boldfacers that even Dan’s Papers readers may not recognize, the paparazzi stormed Jessica Simpson and best friend/personal assistant CaCee Cobb as they walked to their seats.

Fabian Basabe somehow finagled a chair front row and flirted endlessly with the socialites on either side of him—one playfully touching the hole in his jeans while he bopped around to “Love is in the Air.”

The most shocking appearance was the arrival of Lil’ Kim just as the lights dimmed. Wearing head-to-toe Michael Kors (a plunging brown jersey dress with a cropped fur coat and python heels), the always blinging rapper squealed, “I thought the show was so sexy, so expensive, I mean, so oh my god. I love it. Especially the white dress with the blue crystals in the middle, the leopard-skin bikini, the snakeskin dress with the snakeskin bikini. I could totally see myself in everything.” And although Lil’ Kim’s silhouette is constantly changing, she insists the reason she loves Kors’ clothing is because “he truly understands a woman’s body.”

With models like Carmen Kass and Karolina Kurkova strutting the runway, his incorporation of gravity-defying boobs remains to be seen.—Joanna Douglas
