Russell Simmons, aiming for Sophia Bush levels of omnipresence and only falling a tad short, missed the first few looks to come down the runway because his nose was buried in his BlackBerry. Riley Keough, grandspawn of Elvis, trickled in at the last minute and brought with her a passel of potentially douchey rocker dudes, but we couldn't tell if one was boyfriend Ryan Cabrera, a scruffy stand-in, or a newer model that's replaced Ryan altogether. Kelly Killoren Bensimon made brief small talk with Riley afterward: Yes, L.A. is quite different from this; yes, Keough saw things she'd wear. They awkwardly parted, and scene. Keough seemed rather low-energy and uncomfortable, but maybe she was just sweltering; today's warmer weather turned the tent into a stuffy furnace. It made us want to lie down and take a nap.
Todd Oldham, a few seats down from Gallo, enjoyed a quick fan encounter when a mother and daughter — presumably Top Design enthusiasts; lonely work, but at least they have each other — begged and got a picture with him. It wasn't until the show began, however, that we recognized his companion in the gray sleeveless tee and messy upswept hair as none other than the brilliant Amy Sedaris. Based on her outfit, we'd initially assumed it was just some random woman who ran out of Pine-Sol while mopping her kitchen and dropped by the show on her way to the market, but then she smiled at a model and we immediately saw flashes of Jerri Blank in there. Thanks to the day's warmer weather, Sedaris didn't even need the neon pink sweater balled up on her lap. Although if we had shoulder muscles like hers, we wouldn't cover them either. Must be all that mopping. —The Fug Girls
