This is very, very interesting! Renzo Rosso, the Italian industrialist behind Diesel, has acquired a majority stake in the Dutch designer firm Viktor & Rolf with ambitions to build it into one of the “top reference fashion houses of the future.” Financial terms were not disclosed, but Rosso told WWD he plans to make major investments to bolster the duo’s ready-to-wear business, add licensed products such as eyewear and jewelry, plus open freestanding stores in high-visibility locations. via WWD.com Fashion news, retail news, beauty news and more from Women’s Wear Daily

I was reading Jason Kottke’s site and came across one of his Twitter entries. It was the second funniest thing I’ve read all day. First thing was my friend trying to convince me that the Tom Cruise Nazi movie is going to be a blockbuster. I’ve reproduced Jason’s twitter entry here. For those of you that are wondering what the hell is a AT-ST is. For those of you that have no idea of what they look like clomping around, I’ve provided video evidence. Warning: This is probably the more irritating thing you will see all day. Unfortunately this is the only Star Wars clip I could find. Fast forward to 0:43 You can learn the supermodel walk here. image taken from Jason’s Twitter page
