Has the Fashion World Turned on Its Head?
Dear readers, colour us gobsmacked! Our little fashion addicted souls thought we had fallen down the proverbial rabbit hole with Alice at the McQueen after party last night here in Paris. We were among a sizeable crowd of fashionites mingling at the party who bore witness to an earth-transforming event in the fashion universe.
Our fashion world Queen, La Priestly, was holding court with Miyake and Saab at the party, and in attendance were her much younger lover, Andrea Sachs, and her two adorable dragon kits, Caroline and Cassidy Priestly.
Now believe us, we have still not quite recovered from the shock of learning of the deliciously scandalous May-December relationship between the Devil herself and former assistant Miss Sachs, now an up-and-coming political reporter at the New York Mirror.
Like the rest of the world however, we had assumed that not much else would change in La Priestly's Runway-obsessed world, other than the sex of her partner. Imagine our shock, therefore, when we realised that apparently much has changed. It would seem our dear Miss Sachs has in fact twisted the Ice Queen around her little finger and is enticing her to melt the icy persona she has always turned upon the world.
'How, for goodness sake?!' we hear you cry. We will keep you in suspense no longer. Allow us to describe the scene in its entirety…
Andy Sachs entered the scene with the Dragon's kits in tow and proceeded to find her way onto the dance floor with them. She and the twins were apparently having the time of their lives, dancing to the music provided by decks maestro Calvin Harris. It didn't escape anyone's notice that La Priestly's eyes rarely left them.
Miss Sachs and Priestly's daughters were apparently thrilled when Axwell Ingrosso's new track began playing and their uninhibited dancing appeared to draw the tiniest of smiles to even the Ice Queen's lips.
When Miss Sachs broke away from the girls and approached La Priestly's table, we wondered what on earth we were about to bear witness to.
She proceeded to inform the Ice Queen that "you've been sitting down watching all day. You need to move! Come and dance with us?!"
Well, our dear readers, none of us dared move. But La Priestly's expected icy retort never came!
"Will it involve jumping around like a demented jack-in-a-box?" she smiled. Yes, smiled, dear readers!
Miss Sachs merely laughed. "For you, my dear cougar, I could be persuaded to dance properly!"
You can quite imagine our jaws needed picking up from the floor at this point, dear readers, for never has anyone spoken in such a cavalier way to the Devil and lived to tell the tale. However, La Priestly herself simply smirked, muttered "Impudent cub!" and proceeded to the dance floor with her lover, whereupon she and her entire family strutted their stuff for another fifteen minutes.
You may be sure that never has the fashion world seen La Priestly dance in any way other than upon the ballroom floor with her two ex-husbands. Certainly, the dancing, smiling woman we all witnessed upon the dance floor last night appeared to be an entirely new version of our beloved Ice Queen. Perhaps the Ice has finally melted once and for all? We cannot help but wish the happy couple well if love has truly captured our Fashion Goddess.
Be assured, dear readers, we will continue to find our way into the prime spots for more juicy La Priestly gossip and will of course report it to you post haste!
