NEW YORK – Gossip Girl episode 3, “The Dark Night” premiered two weeks ago, and now, with regretful delay, we are going to fashion-deconstruct it. It’s better late than never, right? XOXO

Jenny Humphrey played by Taylor Momsen gets her hands full with her fashion internship. She is wearing a blue floral dress accessorized with a blue Katherine Kwei tote bag (retails for about $495) and a little peace dove necklace by Alex Woo. Zara has confirmed that Jenny’s dress is from their TRF section from their Spring/Summer 2008 Season.

Serena van der Woodsen played by Blake Lively is wearing in this scene a tie-dye jersey tank top by Young Fabulous & Broke, James Jeans, Havaianas flip-flops, Rebecca Minkoff clutch in sea green. Meanwhile Dan Humphrey played by Penn Badgley wears Ted Baker top and Levi’s Jeans.

NEW YORK — Paris Hilton made an appearance on “The Late Show With David Letterman” last night, and we are wondering if she, in some way, expressed displeasure with good old Dave after the show. David Letterman was mean and sarcastic while interviewing Paris picking on Hilton’s new “My New BFF” TV show, her business and personal affairs.

Paris arrived at Ed Sullivan theater wearing a Diane von Furstenberg Ravine Dress in emerald from dvf Fall 2008 Collection (retails for $465) accessorized with the pair of Christian Louboutin Twistochat stilettos (Barneys NY has it for $1095) and a bag from Paris Hilton collection of accessories.

Hilton’s TV show begins airing on MTV Networks on Tuesday, September 30.

NEW YORK – Big fashion event was held at the New York Public Library last night. American fashion industry’s biggest and brightest designers got together to honor each other. Os course, the designers enlisted A-list celebrity clientele to display their latest creations.

Unfortunately, the mood of attendees was saddened by untimely passing away of a fashion icon, Yves Saint Laurent, who died Sunday of brain cancer at age 71.  CFDA president Diane von Furstenberg opened the ceremony with a tribute. She said, “Yves was an artist who always surprised us. He used to say he wanted to be Matisse, but I think Matisse would have wanted to be him…”

The whole scene was glam and chic, coverage of which is a bit beyond the scope of this web site. However, since we were there and because the event is like the Oscars of fashion industry, we decided to show you some photos from the event. So, buckle up and let us show you what we’ve got.

Victoria Beckham wore a black-and-white ruffled heart print Marc Jacobs dress. The Spice Girl was at the event to co-present the award for Womenswear Designer of the Year.
