    Fashion Cartoons From Barneys & Disney Electric Holiday

    Barneys won't debut anything from its holiday retail project until Wednesday, but stills from the coordinating film reveal a host of fashion people turned into cartoon characters.

    In addition to the list of boldface names already included in Electric Holiday, the Disney animated film will feature animated versions of Linda Evangelista, Cathy Horyn, Daphne Guinness, Naomi Campbell, Franca Sozzani, Anna Dello Russo (at left), and Nicolas Ghesquière, among others. All of them participate in some way in Minnie Mouse's ultimate daydream: to walk down the runway during Paris Fashion Week.

    The short film follows Minnie Mouse doing just that. After falling in love with a Lanvin dress she sees in a store window, Minnie Mouse slips into a reverie about wearing the dress in the City of Light. During her daydream, she stops to pose for Juergen Teller and Mario Sorrenti and rubs elbows with Carine Roitfeld.

    A sneak peek at the film below, and a look at stills of all the fashion people here in the gallery.

    The Best Fashion and Celebrity Halloween Costumes 2012

    For most on the East Coast, Frankenstorm has pretty much upstaged Halloween. After all, it doesn't get much scarier than the full-on force of Mother Nature at her very worst. But just in case you're in need of a little escapism — or are lucky enough to have missed the hurricane-superstorm madness altogether — why not soak up some All Hallows' Eve spirit? From Julia Restoin Roitfeld's sexy superhero getup to Anna Dello Russo's spectacular "icon" ensemble, here's a peek at how some of our favorite industry insiders have been celebrating the season — with more goodies to come as the day goes on.

    Anna Dello Russo's accessories collection hits stores today!

    Anna Dello Russo's accessories collection hits stores today! We met up with the fashion icon at the Plaza Hotel in NYC to talk about her new accessories collection for H&M. The Vogue Nippon editor told us all about her love for bijoux and which pieces from the capsule are her favorites. ADR also spilled on her Fashion Week packing process ("I'm the best client of FedEx — I ship a lot") and when she first fell in love with fashion ("when I was born"). You can snap up her eccentric, over-the-top pieces today and check out our amazing interview with Anna in this Fab Flash.

    Fashion's Finest Celebrate Anna Dello Russo's H&M Launch

    By all accounts, the best party of Paris Fashion Week so far wasn't thrown by a luxury brand: it was the fete Anna Dello Russo hosted to celebrate her accessories collaboration with H&M on Thursday night.

    By all accounts, the best party of Paris Fashion Week so far wasn't thrown by a luxury brand: it was the fete Anna Dello Russo hosted to celebrate her accessories collaboration with H&M on Thursday night. Everyone from Olivier Theyskens and Peter Dundas to Karlie Kloss and Isabeli Fontana made their way to the Paradis Latin nightclub in Paris for the event, where they snacked on chocolates adorned with Dello Russo's face and took in a performance from Azealia Banks. And while Dello Russo walked the red carpet with other guests, she also made a proper entrance inside the party, descending from the ceiling in a chair decorated with oversize roses.

    "We created an amusing cabaret show that, while being pure Parisian entertainment, could also function as a metaphor of the carousel of fashion," Dello Russo said. "Excess for me means success."

    A look at the excessive, successful party in the video below, and here in the gallery.

    Anna Dello Russo For H&M Accessories

    Remember during Couture week when Anna Dello Russo was spotted frolicking around Place Vendome in a pink ball gown and toting a set of turquoise luggage? Turns out that luggage — and in fact all the accessories she was wearing, right down to the bejeweled gator sunglasses perched atop her head — belong to her upcoming H&M collaboration. (The dress was Oscar de la Renta; the frolicking, part of a photo shoot for the September issue of Vogue Russia.)

    Now that the issue of Vogue Russia has finally hit newsstands, those images — plus others — have made their way onto the web. What they reveal is not only a much more complete look at the collection, but also a much more intriguing one. Diamante "A" earrings, oversized chain necklaces emblazoned with Dello Russo's name, hinged alligator collars, giant deer charms, bejeweled minaudieries, gold ankle booties — all the pieces are big, glitzy, and very ADR.
