The Museum Of Modern Art Film Benefit: A Tribute To Tim Burton

Fashion designer Zac Posen not only makes beautiful clothes, he also has some cajones. The NYT reports that last April, he went to the 100th anniversary celebration of Cartier where he was seated next to Harper's Bazaar Editor Glenda Bailey and he confronted her about the lack of support from the magazine! Supposedly (because he wasn't a paying advertiser), the only way they would feature his clothing is if he posed in a photo shoot about fashion designers and the characters of Sesame Street, in which he was to pose with a very similar looking Count. He declined. Word to the wise- nowadays in this crumbling economy, pay attention to who's being featured in what publications- chances are they're getting the spotlight because they're paying.
