Fashion news: Lohan accused of ripping off designers, the Obamas are unwitting models and Karl shoots for V’s size issue
Some of the items in Lindsay Lohan’s 6126 clothing line look rather familiar to a couple of designers. Black Milk Clothing’s James Lillis and designer Jen Kao both say Lohan copied their designs. The company disputes this, naturally. [WWD]
But wait! It is apparently LiLo who’s had her designs lifted. [Stylecaster]
A NY Times report surfaced yesterday that H&M in New York’s Herald Square had been mutilating and dumping unsold clothing. H&M responded, saying “We are committed 100 percent to make sure this practice is not happening anywhere else, as it is not our standard practice.” It’s worth noting that H&M is listed as a donor to Windfall, a Canadian new clothing bank.

Wear white, feel all right
For me, getting dressed in the morning involves asking myself some big questions. Are my grey J Brands clean? Is the Queen Street sidewalk covered in a mountain of slush and salt? (And just how waterproof are my moccasins?) Are sparrow feathers an appropriate hair accessory for the office? But on January 29, my morning routine will be a little bit simpler because I’ll be wearing white in support of Wear White 4 Windfall (ww4w.ca).

Disco nights
With the summer party season coming into full swing (if only the weather were just as ready!), this fashionable girl has been hitting the town as of late. First stop, the Buy Design for Windfall gala at the Fermenting Cellar in the Distillery District.

Do the Charleston for charity
Like any true fashionista, I am obsessed with all super chic treats in the world of wardrobe and other wowable finds.
My amour du jour is the recently rehabbed darling of the New York fashion scene, Marc Jacobs, and his Spring 2007 ready-to-wear collection. With its bejewelled headbands, dainty drop waists and megawatt metallics, it is official that the ’20s are trendy again. But where can a dame don a cloche hat and a flapper-inspired frock without looking like a Louise Brooks blunder? The answer arrived on my desk last week, and this dame thinks it is going to be the cat’s pyjamas.
