...wool suitings." From trim, fur has migrated to sportswear. Versace has a mink-lined biker boot, Prada has a mink vest, Fendi and others have fur skirts, Michael Kors has silver fox leg warmers and, for the ultimate in dressing down and up at the same time, Jean Paul Gaultier is offering a fur-lined denim jacket. Fur is targeted to such a young market that there are even furs for children...
...stardom and materialism the major theme of her new CD, Ray of Light (Maverick/Warner Bros.) should rightly make thinking people pause. Didn't she, from the very start, insist that we love her, demand that we worship her golden calves, her exposed iconic midriff, her conical Jean-Paul Gaultier bras? Didn't she, Marilyn-like, pursue the starring role in Evita, and Hollywood thespianhood in general, with .45-cal. ambition?

But Bernard Arnault, whose LVMH owns both Dior and Givenchy, is betting his money that the route to a younger market--the new, galvanizing image that has evaded the old couture houses in recent years--lies across the Channel. For if Galliano is famous...
...major!" gushes Polly Mellen, creative director of Allure. The result could be trivial if director Douglas Keeve were not also focusing on Mizrahi's gathering nerves. The low point comes when a staffer brings in a copy of Women's Wear Daily that headlines the latest from Jean-Paul Gaultier, the tallest tree in Mizrahi's particular sector of the fashion forest. Gaultier's revelation? Eskimo chic. Mizrahi throws the paper on the floor...
