Fashion news: McQueen’s maple leaf scarf, Alexander Wang show to stream in Times Square and SJP in TO

A limited edition scarf by Alexander McQueen has been selling quickly at Holt Renfrew. The $450 scarf featured McQueen’s signature skulls adorned in red maple leaves—a tribute to the 2010 Olympics. In a ghoulish bit of profiteering, someone is selling one of the scarves–purchased just yesterday–for $2,000 on Kijiji. [The Globe and Mail]

Presient Michael Silver keeps it simple: “We think of ourselves as a premium denim brand at a stupid price. We try to do the same thing in the tops.” [WWD]

Bar Refaeli is supposedly miffed that Brooklyn Decker was chosen to be on the cover of Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit edition. Rafaeli apparently had a scowl on her face all night at the issue’s launch party, ignored fans and wouldn’t pose for photographs. Naturally this means she’s jealous. [Huffington Post]

Clandestine Industries, the backer for a Pete Wentz–designed line, is not letting any media into the show’s after party and even denied WWD’s request to cover the show. They’re clearly worried about negative press, but isn’t that better than no press? [WWD]
