Johnny Weir desires to Design; Buyers Pleased with New York Fashion Week
Johnny Weir wants to go to F.I.T. and become a fashion designer while his figure-skating career ends: I want to create things as I have time on earth, and the art of costume and culture has always inspired me. I think being in the public eye can merely help me launch into the world of fashion.

Madonna twisted away from show by Marc Jacobs
‘Queen of Pop’ Madonna is known to get what she wants, but the megastar was turned down by her designer friend Marc Jacobs, who excluded her from attending his much awaited show at New York Fashion Week.
A star-studded front row is de rigueur for most fashion designers, but Jacobs decided to buck the trend, because he discover the celebrity culture “boring”, reported Daily Mail online.
The designer, whose show last season saw Madonna poses alongside pop princess Lady GaGa, enlighten, Madonna just called and said she was coming, and we weren’t holding the show for her…. Last year it produced so much press but at a certain point it was like, ‘Did anybody actually watch the show?’
But for a man who has used Victoria Beckham in his crusades, and Sofia Coppola as his muse, Jacobs’ celebrity ban came as a surprise for many.
His decision may have been for inspired reasons, but it is likely to have had a financial impact too, stars such as Rihanna and Beyonce can be paid as much as 65,000 pounds to attend a single fashion show.
But Jacobs scarcely needed to court publicity, following confirmation on Wednesday he had married long—term love Lorenzo Martone, a Brazilian advertising executive.
Martone exposed in a magazine interview that the couple had married last month in St Barts. He said, we just had an intimate ceremony at a friend’s house with people who were previously on the island.
