!! OMG, nothing comes between them and their Calvins: Madonna's Super Bowl soldiers !!
Turns out Madonna's legion of scantily clad Roman soldiers at the Super Bowl halftime show were sporting black Calvin Klein undies -- making the look all the easier to replicate come Halloween. I'll play Madonna in custom Givenchy and you all can be my Calvin Klein slaves. Who's with me?

!! OMG, R.I.P. designer Eiko Ishioka !!
The innovative Japanese art director Eiko Ishioka has died after a battle with pancreatic cancer, according to The New York Times. She was 73. Even if you weren't familiar with her otherworldly body of work, you no doubt came across it. She created memorable costumes for feature films such as Bram Stoker's Dracula and The Cell, Broadway productions M. Butterfly and Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark, and collaborated with musicians Björk and Grace Jones.
She also made forays into the world of advertising, most famously for Japanese retailer Parco for whom she created an ad in which actress Faye Dunaway silently peels and eats a hard-boiled egg. Watch that above and check out "Cocoon," her 2002 music video for Björk, below.

!! OMG, he knows how to work his angles: Pedro Almodóvar for Missoni !!
Being that Missoni's spring collection leaned heavily on Spanish influences, it should come as little surprise that famed Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar stars in the brand's latest campaign -- but it still does. Turns out the director is close friends with creative director Angela Missoni, who also appears in the series of ads with her daughter, Margherita, and a gaggle of models. No word on whether or not Almodóvar was one of the lucky few to snatch up Missoni's coveted Target line -- but probably not.
(Thanks, Kevin!)

!! OMG, high fashion: 'Bros Blowin' Shotties' !!
Being the deviant culture-pusher that it is, VICE Magazine recently featured a fashion spread called "Bros Blowin' Shotties," which depicts decked-out models in an act of herbal camaraderie. And with all the mouth-to-mouth proximity, the editorial is even a touch homoerotic. Follow the jump to see more photos.
(Thanks, Kevin!)
[[OMG there's more! JUMP IN and read the rest]]

!! OMG, girl loves the gays: Anna Wintour to receive HRC award !!
At its 2012 Greater New York Gala on Feb. 4, the HRC will honor American Vogue editor Anna Wintour with the Ally of Equality Award. Glee and American Horror Story creator Ryan Murphy will present the award to Wintour in recognition of her "grace, dignity, style, philanthropy and generosity," said HRC President Joe Solmonese. The evening will begin with cocktails before the three-hour dinner program and end with an afterparty at the Waldorf-Astoria Starlight Roof. Um, Anna and an afterparty? Yep, I'm crashing.

!! OMG, kinky: Marc Jacobs' new man likes blood !!
We already knew Marc Jacobs was into long, steamy workouts and men in kilts, but it seems he might be into vampire kink, too... ok, maybe that's a stretch, but the designer is rumored to be dating Brazilian porn star Harry Louis, who just happened to release this dumb video promoting his website (a .net mind you -- like anyone uses .net anymore). The clip shows him pricking his finger on a rose thorn and playing with the blood. So, obviously, Marc Jacobs is into blood too, or something.

!! OMG, his new man: Marc Jacobs nabs a porn star !!
Marc Jacobs loves him a Brazilian -- and can you blame him? The designer split with his last boyfriend, Lorenzo Martone, in 2010, and now it seems he's involved with another Brazilian, gay porn star Harry Louis, who tweeted the above picture saying: "What a great weekend thanks to the sweetest guy on earth, Marc Jacobs, see you soon in Paris baby." If I let myself imagine how insane their sex life must be (in Paris no less), I might start to cry.

!! OMG, escandalo: Brad Goreski talks Rachel Zoe drama !!
"I didn't watch this past season of The Rachel Zoe Project just because I had lived it and I kind of know what happens. But you'll see my response to what she accused me of. All I'll say right now is that it's just not what happened. I really am grateful for the time I got to spend with her and it's unfortunate." -- Professional fashion nerd Brad Goreski talking to DJ Ben Harvey and comedian Dave Rubin on The Six Pack.
