Fashion news: Donatella Versace bemoans the loss of egos, Robert Duffy learns the power of Twitter, and a mani at the auto shop

Donatella Versace just wants fashion to be a fun, ego-fuelled mania again--like the good old days. To wit: Kristen McMenamy and Linda Evangelista once battled over who had blonde hair with black roots first. “I was called on as a witness to say who was the first to do black roots in blonde hair. At the time Steven Miesel was really inventing the look of the girls in this way, so I knew who was first: Kristen.” At another show, McMenamy allegedly stole one of Evangelina’s fake boobs. That does actually sound like a lot of fun. [Independent, via The Cut]

Marc Jacobs president Robert Duffy is learning the hard way not to put your phone number on Twitter. Duffy had to take down the phone number for a contest to win tickets to the Marc Jacobs show. "I had to take our # off Twitter. Now no one can work. All phones are ringing. Stop calling please? Wow. This twitter is a powerful thing.” Welcome to the internet, Duffy. [@robertcduffy]

Tavi thinks it’s none of our damn business that she’s missing school to go to shows. (True.) “I know everyone’s intentions are warm-hearted because they’re just so concerned for my health and future because they’re so caring like that.” [Style Rookie]
