No, Georgina Chapman, aka Mrs. Harvey Weinstein, co-founder and designer for Marchesa, is not cheating on her movie-maker husband, it has been announced that she is the new designer, well ‘guest’ designer, for the luxury West End British jeweler, Garrad. However, all of the socialites and fashionistas will have to wait until spring/summer 2010 for a preview of the line at New York Fashion Week. Knowing her attention to detail and the cult following of her decidedly feminine Marchesa line, I’m foreseeing oversized luxe yet lady-like baubles tossed on just so to add the perfect feminine touch to your Marchesa creation or any other outfit for that matter. No word on whether Mick’s little girl, Jade Jagger, is truly out as Creative Director, or whether or not that is why Ms. Chapman was asked in the first place. However, word does have it that Georgina’s line will be debuting at the same time as the Hollywood stylist Rachel Zoe’s will. What a fashionably fabulous showdown that will be, albeit my odds are on Georgina, as everything she touches seems to come up designer gold.
