Fashion News Roundup: PETA Crashes Donna Karan, Test Driving “Majeggings” and Behind the Scenes With Kim and Alexa

Michelle Obama’s PETA Moment: Donna Karan hosted a cocktail hour/fundraiser at her Central Park West penthouse yesterday, which was attended by a slew New York designers and Michelle Obama, all of whom were greeted by PETA members protesting Karan’s use of fur. {WWD}

Kim’s Screen Test: We all know Kim Kardashian was naked in W, but you might not know that Kim and Kourtney used to play a game where Kourtney was Donna Karan and Kim was her tortured assistant. Also, if she wasn’t doing…whatever it is she does now, she would want to be in fashion or crime scene investigator. All this and more in an intimate interview with Lynn Hirschberg. {W}

Oh Ma Jeggings: In an important experiment, writer Joshua David Stein went to Uniqlo to purchase and test the wearability of “majeggings,” or, jeggings for men. Hilarity ensues. {Racked}

Made Well: Check out this behind-the-scenes video of Alexa Chung on her Teen Vogue shoot. {Teen Vogue}

Mad Nails: Mad Men costume designer Janie Bryant’s nail polish collaboration with Nailtini just came out. The four colors are retro-inspired and make us think of Joan Holloway holding a martini glass. It’s available now at Duane Reade and QVC.com. {Stylelist}

Forever 21 Gets Interactive: Forever 21′s new Times Square billboard is crazy and slightly creepy. It does that whole thing where there are cameras, so tourists who stand in the right place get to interact and be in the electronic billboard. But, somehow there are also models in the billboard who appear to pick people out of the crowd and throw them around. Apparently, the same technology is used in government security surveillance. “If you see the way the computer works, it’s like Predator or something,” says Billy Jurewicz, founder and CEO of Space150. {Retail Design Diva}
