Large Editor-at-Large Andre Leon Talley was bum rushed by Mediabistro for an interview at his favorite White Plains diner, and, fashionista he may be, diva he is certainly not. [Mediabistro]

Project Runway winner and fashion pixie Christian Siriano (pictured) showed at New York Fashion week, but he's got a number of other projects going on to keep his nimble fingers busy, including a couture collection. He answered a few questions to get us all up to speed. [WWD]

Yes, we understand that fashion is "about the joy of dressing up," but that doesn't mean we all weren't eager to hear a little more about why Marc Jacobs wore a skirt, and then a kilt. Thankfully, New York Mag got some answers. [The Cut]

Dismayed we were when we found out that the first U.S. Topman opening was pushed from October to November (get it together over there!), but, we can be slightly consoled knowing that the collections are available online for U.S. transaction. Prices are listed in dollars, not those pesky pounds, so if you're okay with paying shipping, click away. [Material Interest]
