Published | Updated

Kim Kardashian has a new crime to deal with -- this time it's her family's DASH store that was hit, and it went down shortly after the Paris suspects got busted.

Law enforcement sources tell us a woman strolled into the Melrose Ave boutique Monday, grabbed a bunch of clothing and perfume and fled in a silver sedan. We're told the woman made off with around $1,600 in DASH gear ... and so far, cops haven't been able to locate her.

Odd coincidence -- since Paris cops announced Monday they'd arrested 17 people in connection with Kim's robbery in October.

New year. Same s***.

GIVING BACK

Cool move from Colin Kaepernick ... who decided to clear out a BUNCH of shoes from his insanely expensive Nike collection and donate them to homeless shelters and orphanages.

Kaepernick -- along with his girlfriend, Nessa -- raided the QB's closet, packing up shoes, clothing and hats to donate to a couple of places, including the Dorothy Day House in Berkeley.

And he didn't just give them his worn-out crap -- we're talking Air Max, Jordans, Timberlands, etc. Just from eyeballing it ... it appears to be thousands of dollars worth of gear.

Run-DMC Sues Walmart and Amazon for $50M!!

Published | Updated

Run-DMC's accusing Walmart and Amazon of slapping the group's famous logo on the products the superstores are hawking.

The Run-DMC brand has filed a lawsuit that says the mega retailers are advertising, selling, manufacturing, promoting and distributing multiple products with the logo, making people believe the group is behind the merch.

According to the lawsuit, the products include glasses, hats, t-shirts, patches, wallets and numerous other items. Run-DMC claims the giant retailers have been in bed for years with several other companies -- which it's also suing -- for straight-up stealing the logo.

Run-DMC says its logo is incredibly valuable, pointing to a $1.6 million agreement with Adidas. And that's why Run-DMC's asking for $50 million in damages.

We've reached out to Walmart and Amazon, so far no word back.

Versace Sued Secret 'Code' for Black Customers ... Fired Employee Claims

Published | Updated

8:41 AM PT -- A rep for Versace tells TMZ the company strongly believes in equal opportunity as an employer and a retailer. They add ... "We do not tolerate discrimination on the basis of race, national origin or any other characteristic protected by our civil rights laws." Versace denies the allegations in the suit.

Versace secretly alerts staffers when an African-American person enters the store ... according to an ex-employee who claims the company also dissed his fashion sense and then canned him.

The man worked in a Bay Area store, and in a lawsuit says a manager told him about a store code called "D410," which was used to casually let co-workers know a black person was present -- as in, we got a D410 in menswear.

BTW ... that's the code for all black shirts in Versace stores ... according to the suit.

The employee says he shocked the manager by responding, "You know that I'm African-American?"

He says after that revelation they refused to give him rest breaks, and fired him after just 2 weeks. In the suit, he says he was told he was canned because he hadn't "lived the luxury life."

Translation: you got no swag, son.

He's suing for unpaid wages and damages. Versace denied the allegations, and has already filed a request for dismissal of the suit.

YOUR DRESS QUESTION'S A MESS

Calvin Klein is not partisan when it comes to dressing first ladies ... he's down with doing up Melania.

The 74-year-old was leaving Catch Friday night when he scoffed at our photog for even asking the question. It seemed fair enough ... Klein's a big Democrat who's dressed Michelle Obama, so you gotta wonder if Trump's his style.

When the Trump's are in fashion, you gotta jump on board.

Kenny Smith Craig Sager Gave Us A Funeral Dress Code ... 'Be Colorful'

Published | Updated

Kenny Smith says his good friend, Craig Sager, gave him marching orders for his funeral in case he lost his battle with cancer ... wanting anyone who showed up to dress as colorful as Sager did.

We talked to Kenny ... who worked with Craig for years as part of the TNT basketball crew ... and asked him if there was any specific way Sager wanted the crowd to look at his homegoing.

"He told us to dress loudly."

Of course, Sager was known for his crazy suit game (and his professionalism and dignity), so the fact that he wanted his service to look a little lively is no surprise at all.

You gotta hear Kenny talk about it though ... clear how much love he had for the guy.

Sarah Jessica Parker Digs In Her Heels At D.C. Store Launch (Remind You of Anything?)

SHOES AND THE CITY

Sarah Jessica Parker's shoe store opening in Washington D.C. could've doubled as a lost scene from "Sex and The City" cuz there were enough heels to rival Carrie Bradshaw's collection.

Sarah got to work on her hands and knees at Thursday's opening. Sure, it might've been a little more Al Bundy, since Carrie was always the one buying, but seems like SJP drove a hard bargain from the customers' reactions on the way out.

Good to see those 6 seasons of 'SATC' paying off.
