Fashion news: The World Cup trophy’s luxe home, Christian Lacroix has a new gig and Victoria’s Secret for Halloween

A Lady Gaga impersonation contest in New York City only drew 11 contestants. Goes to show that when it comes to jewel encrusted corsets and body suits, New Yorkers just have better things to do. [WWD]
Roberto Cavalli is celebrating the company’s 40th birthday with a series of special edition items, such as a collection of leopard skinny jeans, cashmere scarves and a new fragrance. [Racked]

Designer Christian Lacroix has just been named the artistic adviser of La Monnaie de Paris, where he will be designing limited edition coins and medals.
