• It looks like Kate Moss has a Vogue cover in the works. If she does it would be the first time in, like, forever that a model has appeared solo in that spot. [Fashionologie]

• Parisian brand Comptoir des Cotonniers, owned by the same people who own Uniqlo, will open in Soho in September. Just in the nick of time — Soho just doesn't feel French enough these days. [WWD]

• OMG! Can you believe Mango opened its second store in Flushing, Queens?! [WWD]

• Sean "Diddy" Combs went to Cannes on a charter flight without his entourage so the film industry takes him seriously as an actor. [British Vogue]

• Diane Von Furstenberg and Alberta Ferretti had parties for famous people on their boats at Cannes. [WWD]

• Photographers at Cannes are ignoring Petra Nemcova. [NYP]

• L'Wren Scott's boyfriend, Mick Jagger, felt some girl's ass at Cannes while L'Wren was standing near him. [NYDN]

• H&M wants to make Cheap Monday denim as big as Diesel. Sounds promising since no one can afford Diesel these days anyway. [WWD]

• Denim brands have discovered those things called "viral videos," and they're going to use them to advertise, dammit. [WWD]

• Since Memorial Day is on Monday, it's time to start talking about white pants. This writer claims they're "forgiving" in the same way black jeans are. [WP]

• Mariah Carey made Nick Cannon leave Foxwoods to hang out with her at an Elle photo shoot where her personal assistant continuously made her protein shakes. [NYP]

• Whitney Port will host a party in the Hamptons this weekend. Sadly, that almost makes us want to go to the Hamptons. [NYDN]
