When I was at the Mrs. Obama Smithsonian inauguration dress donation last month, I got the scoop that Mrs. O was wearing Prabal Gurung (aka my favorite!) at the event and tweeted the news during the press conference. And then (small heart attack) Prabal tweeted back within minutes, asking for a Twitpic.
That alone was enough to make my month. But then I see (again via Twitter, because I'd barely cracked open the issue) that the new May Vogue has a little write-up about Prabal being tipped off to the dress-wearing via tweet. Which I'm like 99.9 percent sure was my tweet. Which is kind of insanely awesome.
Twitter! Bringing people together! And getting you (sort of) into Vogue! Whee.

That is amazing! What a coup for you!
that. is pretty awesome.
straight or gay, man or woman, fashionhead or not, you can appreciate that kind of awesomeness.

anyway, i'm a guy that is, for the most part, unrelated to fashion, but i find some interesting value looking at you ladies' fashion blogs. and now that i've just read Hawes' contrast, i'm more of a style head anyway.
i came here after I read the intro to Ms Hawes' Fashion in Spinach, and went googling for info on her before I fwd'd the book onto my stylist friends. behold, a domain dedicated to her? hmm.
i had to click because i enjoy (digital)vintage ephemera like Fashion in Spinach, and must explore who else does.
in case you are interested in the link to the book, avail from the Internet Archive (if you don't already have such a link to share):
