Moët Enters The Snark Age, Brings Sonic Youth Along

"Rachel Zoe was seen screaming and cursing because she couldn't get in [to the Marc Jacobs show]. She tried to fight her way in with through the bouncers but they pushed her back and she ran off to her town car while those inside were rocking to Sonic Youth and happily sipping Moët."

- From a PRESS RELEASE sent out by Moët, via Fashionista.

Are you kidding me? They sent this out so blatantly in a press release? Rachel Zoe, by the way, is the celeb stylist responsible for Nicole Richie style transformation and rumored drug fueled weight loss, and now works with every feather thin girl in Lalaland. Not an easy person to like (Nicole Richie fired her and dubbed her "Raisin Face"), and not someone I'm going to defend, but did a major luxury company just put out a press release with petty gossip in it?

Moët puts the Moët in LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton, the biggest purveyors of over priced la-de-das in the world. Marc Jacobs, when he's not dying his hair blue, fucking porn stars, or posing nude for fashion magazines finds time to be the creative director of Vuitton, and his Marc Jacobs show is the hottest ticket of NY Fashion Week. You'd think with all of that they'd have the class to let potential Perez Hilton filler fall beneath them. Or at least the sense to leak it a bit more discreetly. Of course Zoe just got a gig consulting on the revived, and potentially competing, Halston label, but na-na-na-boo-boo press releases are pretty ugly. Almost as ugly as half the crap LV slaps their monogram on.

And really? Did they have to drag Sonic Youth into this petty nonsense?

edit: Ugh, Apparently Kevin Federline was seated in the front row. So tacky. Such a gross combination of trying to be cool and desperately seeking blog approval. So shallow pretty much all of it. Why would Kim Gordan endorse all this?
