"It was once Vanity Fair that held the fashion week dinner in Milan, but the last couple of seasons, Jefferson Hack appears to have inherited the host mantle. The British indie publishing honcho welcomed 70 or so guests to industry canteen Le Langhe on Wednesday night to celebrate both Margherita Missoni's 25th birthday and the latest issue of Another Magazine ... Meanwhile, in Los Angeles, Saks Fifth Avenue hosted its Unforgettable Evening gala to benefit the Entertainment Industry Foundation's Women's Cancer Research Fund. The night's guest of honor, Hilary Swank, arrived sporting a short new 'do, having donated her chopped locks to wigs for chemotherapy patients. Asked if he would consider doing the same, Harvey Weinstein shot back, 'My hair is disappearing anyway. I think I'd rather just write the check.'" (Style)
"It was a bright sunny and cold day in New York yesterday. I lunched at Michael’s with Portfolio’s Nelly Bly (Google her), Alexandra Wolfe, just back from the slopes of Vail, all in one piece. Except she broke a toe on her bedpost her first night back in the Big Town. Tina Brown and Tom Brokaw were tete-a-tete in the bay. At a table nearby Stan Shuman and Zoe Baird. Across the way was Michael Ovitz with a guest. Just behind, Bobby Zarem & Co. I ran into three frequent luncheon partners, Jesse Kornbluth, Wendy Goldberg and Marshall Cohen. I was not at the table, but my guess re what they were talking about? Business, with The Absurd thrown in as a garnish. " (NYSocialDiary)
"Don't read this if you're under 92 years old: Ernest Borgnine has an autobiography coming out in August called, aptly enough, Ernie. Who the fuck is Ernest Borgnine? Well, to my bad movie club that meets every two weeks even if we're busy, he'll always be best known as the star of Bunny O'Hare, in which he and old Bette Davis dress up like hippies—you must believe me—and try to rob banks."
