André on His Solo Show at Colette and Why He Can’t Get Arrested Again
Last week, André Saraiva’s “Drawings” opened at Colette. The group of naive ink and pencil illustrations–a cross between Fritz the Cat and Yellow Submarine–comprise his first solo show ever.
André initially made a name for himself vandalizing French streets with graffiti; he later went on to open party dens Le Baron in Paris and Tokyo, the Beatrice Inn in New York, as well as many others.
He chatted with us about art, nightlife, and yes, fashion.

Fashion News Roundup: Emily Blunt Wears Mark Fast, Donatella Talks Models & Marc Smells Good
All Hail Fast: The more Mark Fast, the better. Emily Blunt looks incredible in the cream feathered mini, and she sounds just as perfect in this interview. {LATimes}
Most Coveted: Great, now we can’t stop thinking about a YSL bag that doesn’t even really exist yet. “Chyc” might be the worst name, but the shape and the color more than make up for it. {StyleFile}
The Juicy Bits: Donatella Versace talks models and ego. She wishes today’s girls had more personality and looked less natural. We wish they had Cindy’s hair. {Independent}
Simply Healing Centre (Detox Spa)
I know, I know, stylebyme.net is supposed to be about fashion but since I’m a health addict, I just had to let you know about the Simply Healing Centre : ) After all, aren’t many in this industry interested in health, fitness and beauty? I visited this wonderful place one hour outside of London together with my boyfriend to spend five whole days of detoxing our bodies, have plenty of heavenly spa treatments and just read and relax in front of the big fire. I wouldn’t write about this place if it wasn’t because I fell in love with it the first day. This big detox house is run by Vivienne, a british lady in her 50’s : ) and she just made this whole experience and wonderful one.

André Leon Talley Will Wear Custom Chado Ralph Rucci on America’s Next Top Model
Ralph Rucci is having a reality TV moment.
Last week, the couturier’s New York Fashion Week show disaster was the center plot on the premiere of Kell on Earth, and now WWD reports that Vogue editor at-large André Leon Talley will wear a different custom-made Rucci cloak on each episode of America’s Next Top Model Cycle 14, set to premiere March 10 on the CW.
The cloaks, which range in color and fabric but not in shape, were inspired by 17th-century Edo samurai tunics.
Will Rucci–who has long been praised for his high-sewing skills but rejected by much of the fashion media because of his unwillingness to follow current trends–finally get his chance to shine? We hope so.
