new news, old favorite


from an article in the magazine, the new yorker, "in the now":


Also present at Rampoldi was the rock musician Cat Power, whose real name is Chan Marshall. Lagerfeld met Marshall last year, outside the Mercer Hotel, in New York. She was dressed in her habitual combination of jeans, T-shirt, and boots, and was smoking a cigarette while slouched on a pile of her luggage. Lagerfeld was enchanted, telling her that only a true woman could get away with smoking like that. She is now a more or less constant presence at Lagerfeld’s gatherings, flown to Chanel fashion shows and events, at the company’s expense. (In January, Marshall and her band performed the music for the Chanel couture show at the Grand Palais, in Paris.)
