Herrrre's Jennifer!

It must be tough being Jack Nicholson's daughter, it's your big night showing at LA Fashion Week and all eyes are darting around the main tent lookin' for your Big Daddy. But Jennifer Nicholson's line has been getting plenty of buzz. A fight almost broke out at the entrance to the tent. People pushed and nudged like it was a Stones concert. Lara Flynn Boyle was there with a very Reality Bites era haircut. The photographers who were spread out around the runway suddenly drew together like magnetized neutrons, the swarm could mean only one thing—big daddy had arrived.

The proud daddy waved off photographers, didn't answer any questions and watched (across from Lara Flynn.) as the show began. Lina Rinna sat next to me and gave a running commentary. "Oh, yeah, that's nice. I like that. the color is great." She was like the John Madden of fashion week. Jennifer Nicholson's line was fairy-tale inspired, diaphanous princess nightie dresses, sheer minis and skirts embroidered with standard fairytale paraphernalia, mushrooms, bowls of porridge...

This is like the third show I saw that was inspired by fairy tales this fashion week, it seems the fashion zeitgeist is about true love and the search for the happily ever after. Jennifer's  logo features two seahorses, creatures  known for their monogamy, and the dad actually carries the baby. Hmmmm....
