The Ritz Paris Gussies Up For Fashion Week With Vintage French Cars
Fashion Week has just ended in Milan, clearing out the bar at the Hotel Principe di Savoia until next season, although from the gossip reports, it sounds like Dita von Teese had a good time there.
As of yesterday, all the air-kissing and high-heeled action has moved north to Paris for the finale of the Fashion Weeks, and of course the city's most lavish hotels are pulling out all the stops to entertain the editors and rich clients. Thank to the FashionWeek Daily, we get little blips of news from across the Atlantic, and it sounds like the Hotel Ritz is back at the top. The famed address on the Place Vendome was visited by a parade of vintage French automobiles, organized by the Association Française Automobile, which is exactly what it sounds like.

Rachel Zoe Switches Her New York Hotel Loyalty
Alright, we'll admit it: we are totally addicted to the Bravo Show The Rachel Zoe Project, which follows top Hollywood stylist Rachel Zoe through runway shows in New York, award show fittings in LA, and everywhere in between. In the first season, Rachel famously occupied the penthouse at the 60 Thompson hotel in the Soho neighborhood of New York City.
When the Thompson LES opened, we knew that it was only a matter of time before Rachel Zoe was calling it "bananas" and making it her new headquarters—as she did in the second season during New York Fashion Week. Her husband Rodger her assistants Taylor and Brad all agreed that the view from the LES' penthouse was very impressive, as was the whole space.
So now you can imagine our surprise to discover that Rachel Zoe has decamped to The Standard.

The May Fair Has A Mystery Gift For Fashionistas
Another six months, another London Fashion Week – in fact, it’s the LFW 25th anniversary. This time, as last, we’re going to be hoping the May Fair Hotel throws up some real celeb sightings over the next few days. Let’s hope that, unlike last time, this round we won’t be disappointed – because we’re getting pretty bored of Peaches Geldof by now.
We’ll let you know next week who’s around – but until then, it’s not too late to book your own Fash Week stay – the hotel is running a London Fashion Week Experience package for us mortals. That gets you a King Superior room, breakfast, a free cocktail, a copy of The File (to you and me, that’s the official LFW guide) and a mystery “gift from the hotel”, which we’re hoping isn’t the chance to share the bar with Ms Geldof.
The package costs £249, and seeing as rooms start at £220 anyway, that doesn’t sound like a rip-off to us. Though it probably depends what the mystery gift is. Us, we’re crossing our fingers it’s a visit from David Gandy.

Eloise to Get Her Own Funky Suite at The Plaza
Is the Plaza turning into the ultimate girly hotel? First the ladies of "Sex and the City." Now Bestey and Eloise.
Perhaps realizing what a faux pas it was to mess with Eloise's house in the first place, The Plaza has just announced a partnership with fashion designer Betsey Johnson to create a one-of-a-kind Eloise Suite inside their hotel. Straight from the official announcement:
The Plaza's two-bedroom Eloise Suite will be whimsically decorated in a color palette of "Eloise pink" and black, and will be full of surprises and distinct "Eloise moments" throughout the guest room. The layout will include one room for parents and a separate Eloise bedroom for the young and young at heart decorated by Betsey Johnson. Plans for the Eloise suite at The Plaza Hotel will begin following New York fashion week.
Conveniently, the Plaza's restored Palm Court will be host to Johnson's Spring 2010 fashion show tonight. As for the suite, no word on the pricing but expect it to be extravagant since regular rooms at the Fairmont Hotel start around $500 a night. And the current Live Like Eloise package starts at $895 a night.
Whatever the folks pay, there better be a Nanny and a pet pug for rent and a turtle chillin' in the bathtub when guests check-in. Just sayin'.

Lady Gaga Peforms at Marc Jacobs After-Party at Maritime's Hiro Ballroom
Fashion Week is in full force in NYC and while our Top Three Hotels for Fashion Week are seeing some consistent action, the Maritime Hotel was the scene of FW's most coveted affair, the Marc Jacobs show's after-party which took place inside the Hiro Ballroom. Hosted by V Magazine and sponsored by Belvedere Vodka, the party featured a performance from Lady Gaga who was fresh off her Best New Artist VMA and continuing the "blood look" with a blood red lace outfit.
Celebs in attendance ran the gamut from serious fashion designers like Alexander Wang to respected photographers like Mario Testino, new and old divas like Estelle, Ciara, Toni Braxton and Janet Jackson to total flame-outs like Lindsay Lohan and Courtney Love.

The NYT Checks In to a 'Different Kind of Fashion Week Blowout'
The NYT shook things up a bit this weekend with their Check In, Check Out column. Rather than checking in to a new trendy hotel, the Gray Lady took another look at one of Manhattan’s oldest hotels, the Empire, which underwent a renovation last year that the NYT says “transformed it into a modern refuge.” (Don’t worry, its 1920s neon sign still glows.)
We suppose it’s a topical move, given this week being New York Fashion Week and the plans for next year’s event to move from Bryant Park to Lincoln Center — the Empire’s stomping grounds. Or maybe it was the hotel's recent addition of City Running Tours that piqued the Times' interest. See how the hotel fared after the jump.

Let The Fashionistas Eat (Low-Cal) Cake At The Met
We’re confused by the fash pack. Not only do they seem to be attempting to show their mortal side with The September Issue, but now they’re trying to convince us that they eat, too. And not just eat – but eat fun stuff.
To celebrate London Fashion Week (18-23 September), the swanky Metropolitan has gone and got Lulu Guinness to create a special afternoon tea menu. Expect cupcakes and cookies inspired by the signature LG look – ie lots of kitsch, lips, and oversized roses.
