Sofia Coppola Sets Next Movie in Legendary Hollywood Hot Spot
I can't believe it's been nearly three years since Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette came out, and I'm happy to learn she's getting back to making movies — this time set in the present day at a famed hotel.
Titled Somewhere, her next movie centers on "a bad-boy actor stumbling through a life of excess at the Chateau Marmont. With an unexpected visit from his 11-year-old daughter, he is forced to reexamine his life."

Kate and Kirsten Help Wrap Up the Spring Fashion Fun
The 2009 Spring fashion season came to a close in Paris last night after a whirlwind month of shows in New York, London, and Milan. Lots of stars were out to celebrate, with Emma Watson, Claudia Schiffer, and Naomi Campbell taking in YSL and Chanel while Dita von Teese and Lenny Kravitz checked out Marc Jacobs's newest work at Louis Vuitton. After shopping around the city, Kate Bosworth brought her man James Rousseau to the Miu Miu show last night along with Kirsten Dunst, who is a former face of the brand.
Fab Flash: Sofia Coppola, From Director to Designer
Most of you loved Sofia Coppola's recent ad campaign for Louis Vuitton but how do feel about her designing for the luxury brand? Rumor has it that the award-winning director will design a collection of handbags and shoes for Louis Vuitton.
Coppola, seen left with one of her designs, has played muse to Marc Jacobs so it makes sense for the two to take their friendship to the next level.

New York Fashion Week has been in full swing with more shows than you can possibly imagine crammed into each day — check out FabUK and BellaUK's coverage of the week so far.

Of course there have also been tons of familiar American faces attending too, for instance Halle Berry, Claire Danes, Nicole Richie, Mary-Kate Olsen, Kanye West, Leigh Lezark, Leighton Meester and Taylor Momsen have all been seen at the shows and parties — so here's part one of my gallery depicting all the celeb movers and shakers taking in the Spring 2009 fashions in New York.
FABTV: The Chemical Brothers, "Elektrobank"
In this Spike Jonze directed vid, Fab favorite Sofia Coppola plays Janet, an injured gymnast. With all the Olympics hoopla, this was the perfect FABTV for right now. Sofia looks every bit the part: feathered bangs, scrunchied pony, toned bod (but maybe too skinny, have you seen today's gymnasts?).
