Our old trekkie pal Zennie Abraham is back on his City Brights blog questioning the display currently in the windows at the Calvin Klein store in the Westfield Centre. A reader wrote in to say s/he thought it provoked images of African-American lynchings, given the ropes and, we suppose, the fact that these are literally black mannequins. We would argue it looks a lot more like circus/gymnastics imagery to us, given the trapeze and all, but sure, someone could make an argument that the bodies randomly slung by two ropes are questionable. Anyway, it's hardly a question for national concern, but Zennie has put up a poll and he's asking you to vote. We've embedded the poll here, so, for Zennie's sake, please let him know what you think.

It seems like, all across the network, folks were up to no good. Maybe it was all the green beer from last weekend...

Not one but two articles in the Sunday Chronicle breathlessly report that our very own lady of sorrows Kimberly Guilfoyle made a potentially-cuddly first appearance during Fashion Week with Eric Villency, the host of the show "iVillage" on the Fine Living channel. (Do we even get that channel out here in SF?) Check out Eric's pouty mug to your left. Villency is a former Calvin Klein and Abercrombie model, and the president of his family's Maurice Villency furniture business. Here's a picture of him in the New York Social Diary with his ex, Olivia Chantecaille. They achieved some sort of notoriety in the social elite when it turned out they'd hired PR reps to place gossip items about themselves in the papers. That's so nice that Kim's finally dating someone who loves being in the media so much. The reports call Kimmie and Eric an "instacouple," but take note of Eric's statements about his apartment to HGTV! Speaking of the furnishings in his 1800 sq. ft. Greenwich Village apartment, he says, "I don't have it in here if I don't love it." A good sign, Kim, a good sign! Watch out, though -- in an interview with the magazine One 2 One, Eric warns, "My worst relationship was with someone who was very moody and negative. She dwelled on things that didn’t relate to us or her life. She couldn’t be happy with me, because she couldn’t be happy with herself."
