Stefano Pilati Lands a Job 

Good news for Stefano Pilati lovers. Elle just tweeted, “Breaking: Stefano Pilati will be taking on the role as head of design for  and creative director for Agnona.” The former YSL designer has been jobless since his exit from the famed French house this past fall — which is years in the fashion world. Wonder how the twitterati is taking this news? Style.com’s Meenal Mistry tweeted, “Stefano Pilati going to Zegna/Agnona is great news. Tho I’m still not ruling him out as Armani‘s successor. .” InStyle‘s EIC Ariel Foxman added, “Pilati is back! Particularly excited, as a Zegna consumer. Plus, eager to see what he will bring to Agnona.” Glamour‘s EIC Cindi Leive agreed tweeting, “First day back to work and already good fashion gossip: Stefano Pilati to go to Zegna. Great hire!” We couldn’t agree more.

Girls kissing girls is so in right now.  .” The Cut further elaborated on the Style.com article by quoting some of its most contentious statements: “Lesbians! They’re everywhere…What will this high-vis lady love mean for fashion? Socially, perhaps it means that in an industry stuffed with attractive young women, a few more of them may start dating each other.” What do you take from this testy piece? Find it offensive, an example of poor journalism, or in sync with the times? You tell us.
