In two recent interviews, with Menswear and the Guardian, Hedi Slimane alludes to the idea of him designing again. Though he has been rumoured to take the helm at Dior and Yves Saint Laurent, he remains vague on the idea. Instead, he takes the opportunity to bash celebrity red carpets and what L.A has done to fashion. [Fashionista]

“Lady Gaga wants to look crazy — her next outfit I know is going to be surf and turf. It’s the ones that think they look great, and you go, “Are you out of your mind?” Or the ones who have become total fashion victims. I just think Prada should be shut down, and truly I think they hate Americans. I think they’re still angry at us for WWII.” More of Joan Rivers‘s bon mots at the link. [The Cut]

Freida Pinto wins for most resort-filled TIFF wardrobe, trotting out Alexander McQueen for the You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger premiere, an aqua Narciso Rodriguez for the presser and a fuchsia leopard-print Marchesa for the Miral party.
