Making waves across the pond is Prince Charles'--yes, that Prince Charles--five piece organic skin treatment set called Highgrove, named after his estate in Gloucestershire.  It's already widely sold out across the continent, and we hope it works miracles because God knows Camilla's hurting for one.

Annoyingly ubiquitous Justin Timberlake will headline the Conde Nast benefit, Fashion Rocks, on September 5th, which is oh-so-coincidentally the start date of NY Fashion Week.  Sounds like someone could use a little lesson in saturation. [Fashionista]

The tattoo-inspired inaugural fragrance launch from Ed Hardy by Christian Audigier was so successful he'll launch a follow up pair of men's and women's fragrances this December.  Nothing like a new scent for the holidays to cover up the desperate smell of alcohol and bitterness. [WWD]

While at first they were glad to get some well-received coverage when Agnyess Deyn fronted for one of their songs, bandmates of Five O'clock Heroes are now getting a little tired of being overshadowed by all the attention her one tune, "Who," is getting.  The model shadow does loom large indeed.

As if designing clothes isn't time consuming enough. ADAM designer Adam Lippes will launch a blog on his website, shopadam.com.  I'm sure it will be great and all, but never forget where your allegiances lie, bitches...[WWD]

To commemorate the brand's 40th anniversary, Calvin Klein will stage a full-scale menswear show next February during New York Fashion Week.  Normally shown in Milan, it's about time Mr. Klein shed that hoity-toity attitude and came home.  [DNR]

I don't want to act, I want to direct! Giorgio Armani is holding a competition to find the next great advertising director to film the next Emporio Armani Parfums commercial. He's inviting aspiring directors to create a commercial for his line of fragrances and submit them online. Submit your film by May 15th! The winner will be chosen by Mr. Armani himself. At least it won't be televised as a reality show. [British Vogue]

Are 50s Rockabilly fashions back in style in London? I thought the swing dancing and poodle skirts made their comeback about ten years ago. I guess we'll start seeing the greaser look stateside in about six months. [Independent via The Cut]

Calvin Klein is heading East...to the Middle East, that is.. to showcase collections and debut a new beauty line in Dubai. Since the U.S. economy sucks, why not hit up the oil-rich Emirates for some cold hard cash? [FWD]

Bahama-dwelling model/interior designer/author India Hicks will replace Todd Oldham (pictured) on Bravo's Top Design as a judge, but the cherubic homo will stay with the show and continue his role as the gay nurturing mentor a la Tim Gunn. [FWD]

Q: Things are starting to warm up and I’m interested in buying some shorts, but my friend told me that my cargo shorts aren’t cool anymore. What should I buy for spring and summer?

A: Unless you’re packing some precious cargo in those oversized pockets, skip the cargo shorts. All that baggage just adds more junk to your trunk and needless bulk where you would rather look slim and trim. If you really need to carry a ton of cargo, buy a stylish bag. This season, shorts run the gamut of short and shorter -- from nut-hugging numbers to knee-length Bermuda shorts. Calvin Klein, Michael Kors, Marc by Marc Jacobs and Lacoste all offer short-short styles that show a little more thigh by stopping a few inches above the knee without reaching daisy-duke territory. If you’re not up for showing some thigh, preppy-classic Bermuda shorts are also back for another season. But they’ve received a little nip and tuck while in hibernation. Designers like Louis Vuitton, Missoni and Band of Outsiders have taken a cue from skinny trousers and slimmed down the silhouette for an overall lean look that would look great with the season’s nautical looks. Let’s just say that this season’s styles will show off your biggest asset.

Calvin Klein dishes to Vogue Hommes International about his feelings about the clothes sold under his name, and his interest in pursuing architecture. I mean, designing buildings can't be any harder than designing a chic dress, right? [WWD]

The London Moped Gang strikes again! FrostFrench is the latest victim in a string of high-end boutique robberies including Luella, Marc Jacobs, Roger Vivier and Brora. The bandits nabbed thousands of dollars worth of merchandise. At least they have good taste in clothes. [Vogue UK]

Giorgio Armani follows in the footsteps of Prada, Diane von Furstenberg and Calvin Klein by announcing plans to launch an Armani-branded cell phone in Europe this fall.
