Paul Marciano Stepping Aside from Guess Duties Amid Co. Investigation

Published | Updated

Guess co-founder Paul Marciano is giving up his day-to-day responsibilities as a key executive of his fashion company while it completes a misconduct investigation.

Guess Inc. made the announcement Tuesday, which comes nearly two weeks after Kate Upton detailed allegations of sexual harassment against Marciano.

As we reported ... she claims he groped her breasts and thighs, forcibly kissed her, fired her from shoots and called her a "fat pig" in 2011. He's denied her allegations.

TIME IS RUNNING OUT

Shortly after coming out with her full story, Kate told us Guess needs to clean house if they really wanted to deal with their issues with women ... suggesting it was a company-wide problem that came from the top down.

As for this latest news ... Guess says Marciano will not be getting paid while he steps aside. He serves as the executive chairman of the co. board as well as its chief creative officer.

For his part, Marciano says ... "I have pledged my full cooperation to the Company, and I have the utmost confidence in our CEO, Victor Herrero to continue leading the Company during this time."

Tyrese Finally Gets Ball Rollin' On 'Millionheir' Clothing Line

Published | Updated

Tyrese teased fans with a new clothing line nearly 2 years ago, but now he's making it official.

The actor/singer's company, Voltron Entertainment Company, filed docs to trademark "Millionheir" for a new clothing line. Tyrese first started pimping the brand back in June 2016, saying he wanted to launch the line, but fans were still waiting for him to roll out some products.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Tyrese already had a font and style in mind for his logo back in 2016, but it's unclear if this is the one he's sticking with for the trademark. According to the docs, he plans to use the brand for all sorts of clothing.

Tyrese also applied to trademark "Millionheir" in 2015, for aftershave and colognes. We'll see if he follows through this time.

Kate Middleton Time Was Up for BAFTA Dress Change ... She's Preggo, After All

Published | Updated

Kate Middleton was fighting the clock when she put on her green gown for the BAFTA Awards -- instead of black -- and her pregnancy made a switch near impossible.

Royals expert Katie Nicholl -- who wrote the book, "Kate: The Future Queen" -- tells us the Duchess of Cambridge was in a "no-win situation" Sunday with her wardrobe choice. She was criticized for going against the suggested Time's Up all-black dress code -- but Nicholl says Kate's dress was likely pre-ordered months ago and custom-made with her pregnancy in mind.

Point is ... the dress would've been chosen way before the Time's Up's buzz began in late 2017, and would preclude a last-minute wardrobe change.

There's also this -- Nicholl says members of the Royal family are encouraged to avoid political statements. That could be at play, but taking a stand against sexual harassment -- as tons of celebs have during award season -- hardly seems like a controversial stance.

So, we're going maternity dress issues for the win.

LeBron The Whole James Clan is Gucci Gang Over $3k of Merch at ASG!!

Published | Updated

Captain LeBron won MVP at the All-Star game ... but his offspring were the ones rockin' garments fit for a King.

LeBron snapped a pic with his 3 kids after downing Team Steph -- and they were all fitted in super expensive gear from Gucci, one of his favorite designer brands.

The lineup ...

13-year-old Bronny: $1,100 Gucci logo sweater

10-year-old Bryce: $1,390 Gucci teddy bear sweater

3-year-old: Zhuri: $410 Gucci princetown slipper-shoes and $365 Gucci tiger hoodie

That's right -- a toddler was wearing more expensive clothes than you yesterday.

FYI, papa James' footwear of choice was his brand new Chapter 2 Kith x Nike LeBron 15 "Long Live the King" joints -- which retail for $285.

Kate Middleton at BAFTA Awards A Little Green on Time's Up? Breaks All-Black Dress Code

Published | Updated

Kate Middleton either wasn't aware or simply didn't care about the suggested all-black dress code for Time's Up at the BAFTA Awards -- 'cause she went another way.

Kate and Prince William attended the annual award show Sunday in England, hitting the red carpet in a dark green gown while her hubby rocked a classic black tux.

It's a notable fashion choice, especially since most of the big stars of the night stuck to the blackout we saw during the Golden Globes. Actresses that wore black include Angelina Jolie, Margot Robbie, Jennifer Lawrence, Naomie Harris, Lupita Nyong'o, Salma Hayek, Octavia Spencer and others.

Whether she didn't get the memo, or just didn't want to weigh in on a controversial issue ... Kate definitely made a statement.

Joe Haden I'd Drop $10K for Marty McFly Kicks Wait ... That's Not Enough?!

BACK TO THE SHOE-TURE

NFL star Joe Haden says he wants a pair of super rare (and expensive) "Back to the Future" sneakers for his epic collection, but there's 1 problem ...

The $10K he wants to throw down ain't gonna cut it!!

FYI, Haden recently shared a pic of his shoe-seum ... so when we saw him leaving Delilah in L.A., we had to ask if there was a Mona Lisa out there he needed to have.

Joe told TMZ Sports he wanted Nike's Marty McFly shoes ... and he'd be willing to drop "about 10 bands" to get 'em.

Problem is ... Haden specifically said he wanted the self-lacing 2016 joints -- which are currently going for around $30K. The 2011 first editions are closer to $10k a pop.

Guessing Joe can swing it, though ... dude spends MILLIONS on luxury cars every year!

NBA's Timofey Mozgov Blows $1,300 On Gucci Fanny Pack

Published | Updated

You know you've got WAY too much money when you drop $1,290 on a Gucci fanny pack -- just like Brooklyn Nets center Timofey Mozgov!!

Remember, the L.A. Lakers signed Mozgov to a $64 MILLION contract back in 2016 -- so, why the hell not blow some of that cash on a ridiculous, unnecessary fashion ... right, Timofey?

We spotted the 7-footer rockin' The Rock's favorite '90s accessory at LAX on Thursday ... and later found out Gucci's flippin' 'em for almost $1.3k on their website!!

As you can see, it's technically sized to be a "belt bag" -- but not for a behemoth like Tim.

Still ... wonder what he keeps in there?

FYI, that's a thousand-dollar Philipp Plein backpack he's got on, too.

Tim also used to play for the Cleveland Cavs ... so we got his take on LeBron's new-look squad before he bounced (probably to Rodeo Drive).

DJ Khaled Asahd's Got the Key To a Modeling Contract!!!

Published | Updated

They might not want DJ Khaled's son, Asahd, to strut a fashion show runway while rocking threads with his name on them -- but too bad, 'cause that's exactly what happened!

Asahd was escorted down the runway Thursday night by Mom and Pop at the Rookie USA fashion show in Hollywood -- but make no mistake, the kid's a baby baller on his own. He's the new face of Jordan Brand's kid apparel line, and several other famous kids joined him in the show.

THE KEY TO THE CATWALK IS ...

Former NY Giants receiver Victor Cruz walked his daughter, Kennedy ... Black Eyed Peas' Taboo brought his 3 tots ... Travis Barker's daughter Alabama ... and Fat Joe's kid Azariah were in the show. The young "This Is Us" siblings also modeled the new line.

Major key moment!

Cardi B Shimmers in Unresolved Pregnancy Mystery

Published | Updated

Cardi B hit up Madison Square Garden Thursday in a shimmering, sequined getup, and it doesn't resolve the question ... is she really pregnant?

Cardi showed up for the Romeo Santos concert at MSG, struttiing in with attitude. From this angle, it's hard to see if she's showing, but an argument can be made both ways.

TMZ broke the story ... one of Cardi's people told a staffer at a Super Bowl party she was drinking Fiji Water because she was 3 to 4 months pregnant.

Maybe more immediately pressing ... Cardi's expected to fly to L.A. Friday for All-Star Weekend, and there are security concerns after she dissed the Crips in a recent post.

Kim Kardashian Keeping Up with the Hand-Me-Downs ... Bid on My Stuff!

Published | Updated

If you've ever wanted to raid Kim Kardashian's closet, here's your chance to do it ... without getting arrested for trespassing.

A bunch of Kim K's old wardrobe and accessories are being auctioned off on eBay right now through marketing agency Auction Cause -- with more than 200 items up for grabs.

Here's the cool part ... a lot of this stuff is "Pre-owned," meaning they were worn or used by Kim herself at some point. There's also a handful of new items she owned but never wore -- such as bikini bottoms. Nothing used in that department. Sorry, creeps.

We're told 10% of the proceeds are going to Children's Hospital Los Angeles. So, at least you're shopping for a really good cause ... besides self-gratification.

Margot Robbie Calvin's Newest Face At NYFW

Published | Updated

Margot Robbie looked absolutely incredible sitting next to Nicole Kidman and Laura Dern at a recent NYFW show.

Robbie was spotted next to the actresses at Calvin Klein's NYFW event which totally makes sense given she's the new face of euphoria Calvin Klein -- the brand's fragrance. We're told the trio were the ones who really stole the show.

Margot's got a lot under her belt already this year, including the massive success of "I, Tonya" ... so add the new CK campaign to her growing list of accomplishments for 2018.

Justin Bieber I Got Your Back, Kanye 'Red October' All Day, Everyday

Published | Updated

Justin Bieber appears to be in full support of Kanye West's attempt to lock down a "Red October" trademark ... 'cause he's wearing the guy's old Nike shoes of the same name.

Bieber was seen pulling up to a gym Tuesday in L.A. -- driving his new Lamborghini, and rockin' a pair of Nike's Air Yeezy 2 "Red October" sneaks. We broke the story ... 'Ye, who's since jumped to Adidas, is trying to reclaim the shoe's name as his own.

He's already filed an application for exclusive rights and if granted, he'd be able to slap the name on a bunch of different clothing items as well as footwear. So, yes, you could see "Red October" shoes with a new company ... if Kanye gets his way.

Looks like the Biebs is still a fan of the throwback model from 2014. Can't blame him ... they're still pretty dope.

Kylie Jenner Tracksuit Mom Back in Action

Published | Updated

Kylie Jenner's wasting no time getting back into her normal routine even though she popped a baby out just over a week ago.

The 20-year-old was spotted with Jordyn Woods grabbing some Starbucks Sunday. Kylie went for casual comfort with an Adidas tracksuit ... a much more covered up look than Saturday's ensemble, complete with black athletic shorts.

Still no sign of Stormi in public ... but you gotta imagine Kylie's got plenty of help at home to let Mom go out and do her thing.

Irina Shayk Beam Me Down, Philipp! Struts Out of UFO for NYFW

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Irina Shayk brought new meaning to looking outta this world after she stepped out of a giant spaceship in Brooklyn.

Shayk was the star of Philipp Plein's NY Fashion Week show which transformed the Brooklyn Navy Yard into a snowy planet inhabited by a Transformer-looking robot ... which greeted Shayk and escorted her down the runway.

If you're wondering how much something like this would cost, it's probably a lot, but Plein's t-shirts and jeans start around $400 a pop so he's got the dough.

Needless to say ... Plein's gotta knack for making headlines with his runways.

Kanye West 'Red October' in February 2018 ... 'Memba These?

Published | Updated

Kanye West might be an Adidas guy now, but that doesn't mean he's ready to let go of his Nike days ... he now wants to re-up his claim to the name of one his most famous kicks.

Kanye has applied for a trademark to snag exclusive rights to "Red October" -- the name of a shoe he released with Nike back in 2014.

If approved, the trademark would allow 'Ye to use (and presumably license) his "Red October" mark for shirts, jerseys, bras, thongs, parkas, capes, body stockings, tankinis, baby bibs, swim caps, PJs, gloves and lots of other stuff as well. Oh ... and footwear too, of course.

According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, Kanye's OG 2013 trademark application for the name fell through since he didn't finish filing all the necessary paperwork. Makes sense he'd want this -- the shoes are still wildly popular, and retail for thousands.

Looks like he's back to button up the issue ... more than 4 years later ... in February. Attaboy, 'Ye.

Published | Updated

Celebs heading to New York Fashion Week might wanna borrow a pair of Anna Wintour's shades for all the metallics and sequins on the runway.

Gigi Hadid looked straight outta the sequel to 'Fifth Element' walking in Jeremy Scott's sci-fi-inspired show Thursday. Meanwhile Cindy Crawford's mini-me Kaia Gerber walked the Tom Ford sequin-infested runway.

Ford's show drew celebs like Julianne Moore, Elizabeth Banks, La La Anthony, Hailey Baldwin, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Christian Combs and Doutzen Kroes. Hadid's own bf, Zayn, and bro Anwar had front-row seats there too.

Anna Wintour's always on trend being shady.
