Ready to Weir
Johnny Weir will be wearing Heatherette (by Traver & Richie, right) this fall!
Fashion fans and devotees of openly "flamboyant" ice skating champ Johnny Weir take note: The Olympic star will be hitting the runway this fall when the Heatherette Spring 2007 show takes to the tents in Bryant Park in September. (Which makes sense, since Heatherette's own Richie Rich used to skate in the Ice Capades, back in the day.) Via Cyd at OutSports, the Dallas Morning News also reports that Weir (who describes his own look as "very androgynous") will also be featured in an "avant-garde" fashion spread in an upcoming issue of Black Book, as well, which will showcase him in a Chanel dress and heels! Yay, Johnny!
Outsports also reports from Weir's own website in which he professes his eagerness to see The Devil Wears Prada and for Christina Aguilera's forthcoming album, and his love for all the current summer sales.
Just thought you'd like to know...
I just checked out his website and Johnny Weir sounds so down to earth. Plus he has really good taste in men: Adrien Brody and Orlando Bloom... Hmmm :)
