L.A.M.B. Love

Monday: Prada lizard T-straps

Last week Page Six reported that Gwen Stefani was furious at Naomi Campbell for upstaging her L.A.M.B. show on Friday night, which was supposed to close fashion week, because Naomi scheduled a hurricane relief fashion event an hour later. So after all that, guess who showed up on the L.A.M.B. runway?

So peace was made all in the name of fashion, I suppose. (Though I should note that Naomi’s wearing possibly the most unflattering outfit in the show. So there!)

But it was a good thing that no blood was shed or lambs slaughtered — you never know when Naomi’s concerned — because the L.A.M.B. show was, well, if not B-A-N-A-N-A-S, it was pretty great. Okay, maybe not the shiny track suits necessarily — Gwen can get away with that but not the rest of us non-pop-stars — but there were some pieces I can’t wait to get my hands on: the Swiss Miss cardi, the Missoni-like print hoodie, the navy scalloped jacket, the corsage-like scarf.

Of all the celebs-turned-designers out there, Gwen’s the most credible, hands-down. I mean, can you see Diddy in an atelier, fretting over the fit of a bias cut? Even JLo could be spotted in Juicy sweats when her line was selling its own knock-off version. You actually see Gwen wearing her own clothes most of the time. And that’s about as good an endorsement as you can get!
