Valentino partner Giancarlo Giammetti has learned just how far Facebook networking stretches, especially when it involves negative press. After watching the Valentino spring 2010 show in Paris, Giammetti took to his FB page and changed his status to read “not sad … just surprised. … We have always supported the new designers and we love them, but this time we have to distance ourselves from this ridiculous circus.” After a flood of comments, Giammetti deleted his status, “…because it was becoming [too] heavy.” [The Cut]

Zac Posen apparently confronted Harper’s Bazaar editor Glenda Bailey last year after the mag asked Posen to be shot for a feature with Sesame Street characters (specifically, the Count) in order for his clothes to be shown.

With the departure of Nathan Jenden from Diane von Furstenberg comes the arrival of Yvan Mispelaere. Currently the womenswear design director at Gucci, Mispelaere will fill the creative director role at DVF as of April 1. [Vogue UK]
In an interview on the Today Show, Michelle Obama shares the process behind her outfit decisions. She just wants to wear what she likes. [The Cut]
Louis Vuitton has just released their latest accessory: a garbage bag purse complete with a pully as the clasp that cinches all your trash…er, treasure. At a whopping US$1,960, this trash bag should be entered into the Guinness Book of World Records. [Refinery 29]
