Fashion Week Roundup, Part IV



"Being fired by Yigal Azrouël for allowing America’s most notorious ex-call girl to sit front row at his show didn’t deter pr Kelly Cutrone from continuing her Svengali-like relationship with Ashley Dupre. The former Emperor’s Club VIP escort hit the Davidelfin show after the Azrouël brouhaha on Friday, and then the Buckler men’s wear presentation on Saturday—after which Cutrone spontaneously invited WWD to a Valentine’s Day dinner with Dupre. Over pasta and salmon at L’Ulivo in the West Village, Dupre opened up about her hoped-for music career, her love of fashion and how she’s dealt with moving on from the Eliot Spitzer scandal. 'It’s pop-rock, it’s going to be deep, not bubblegum. It’s definitely a personal record,' said Dupre, 23, of the album she is currently recording. She’s managed to land some serious producers in Peter Zizzo (who has worked with Avril Lavigne and Celine Dion) and Rob Fusari (who has worked with Jessica Simpson and Lady Gaga). But don’t expect any Spitzer-related songs. 'I think I’ll stay away from that, it would be pretty tacky,' said Dupre, who is petite, gregarious and blessed with a flawless complexion. 'I don’t want to sing about it and I don’t think anyone wants to listen to it.'" (WWD)
