Rachel Bilson: InStyle’s New Fashion Editor!
Rachel Bilson has scored herself a monthly column as a fashion editor in InStyle.
The Q&A is called “Ask Rachel” and stars with the May 2009 issue (with Jennifer Garner on the cover).
“I am not planning on quitting my day job to be a full-time fashion editor, although I am really enjoying it and it intrigues me very much,” Rachel tells WWD. “I’m actually flattered more than anything that people want to ask me questions about style. I am honored to do it.”
She adds, “I can talk about fashion all day long, and I am an avid InStyle reader so the relationship seemed perfect! This column is the best homework assignment ever!”

oops, I meant to say just “products” , nothing is mine
@lily don’t know much about chloe other than she worked on shattered Glass, same as a few other people.
Do agree with others “Intouch” is not cannon fodder it’s a respected Mag
VOR, really? I’ve seen SG, but only remember Rosario Dawson, Peter Sarsgard and Hank somethin. I loved that movie Hayden was excellent in it. I’m still a fan, sort of. His last three movies were so disappointing. I’m hoping one day the right script will come along and he’ll get to shine again.
It’s not that I hate RB. It just seems that he has turned into something different since he’s been with her. Maybe he’s happy who knows. You ever get a gut feeling about something? That’s how I feel about them. It’s the same feeling I got when my eldest brother (who’s was a successful business owner) brought home this girl that I got strange vibes about. My mom told me I was feeling negative because I was no longer his most important baby sister and that I needed to just let go of the envy and just be happy for him. Fast forward - he married her 3 years later - got divorced in 2 and she’s practically cleaned him out.
Not all marriages end in disaster like this, but a red alert went up for me when I heard/read (don’t remember how I came across this) that she said “I always get what I want”, no nice girl would say something selfish like this.
Sorry for the rambling.

Think your question I had answered in a post above? And would you please stop giving names to everybody who doesn’t like RB and/or HC? Thank you. This takes out every seriousness of one of your posts, you know?

The most pretty one on this pic is the dog for sure, at least in my eyes.

Chloe Sevigny became famous with a very hard to watch movie called “Kids” from a provoking director about the subject HIV. Remember I extra had to go see it in Switzerland back then as over here they did not even show it at theaters. Now they sometimes bring it very late at night on TV. It leaves you depressed but thinking - I would suggest it to all pupils of a certain age, as a warning.
What’s wrong w/ not liking her?! Just because that some insular mindsets fancy her doesn’t mean that the rest of the world should. Sometimes a celebritard “could have an imaginary skills, have a brain size like a pea or even have a face like a foot”, and still be (in)famous in Hollowood.
Smilehexe, thanks for the info. Was CS any good in that movie or was the talk simply because of the controversial content? I’m curious now.
trevise, there’s nothing wrong with not liking. Trust me, on teetering on the edge right now. Everybody has a right to their opinion and I fully respect that.
I actually love reading the banter that’s been going back and forth, it’s quite entertaining.
i really hate real observer. i am sorry, you have posted about fifty times on this with nothing to say but hateful things.
it is actually impossible for anyone who knows anything about person style whatsoever to deny Rachel has great fashion sense. you are very weird to me.

I have seen this movie many years ago but what I remember she was good in it, and it also brought her some acclaim from the critics. It’s not a movie I personally would watch twice but still worth being seen once IMO.
Chloe Sevigny does not have this “obvious beauty jumping in your face” to me but she has something you remember, she’s individual which is not a bad thing in times of plastic surgeons all over the HW-business. I admire people, especially women, who stay themselves in all of this, like e.g. also Sarah Michelle Gellar-Prinze for keeping her real nose etc. Look at Jessica Simpson or Kate Bosworth for example, I think it’s hard to not mix them up, and there are more like this, all seem modeled after one same type. And especially if somebody gets older, some “make-overs” (done in an operating room) start to turn against them very often. Have three actresses in mind here but don’t want to name them. ;-) Just think about women with no possibility anymore to move their faces anyhow natural. Takes a lot out of their performances.
@ LEXIE do you have a credible source of why her clothing line is still sold out …what 4 or 5 months now if it is in such high demand don’t you think it would be avalible to the public ?? and not to mention when she announced her line it didn’t take long for it to hit the stores ??
Maybe you can do some homework on this subject and get back to me or will it be me passing judgement and trashing someone.And to be honest her fashion editor want last long ,now if it was for seventeen magazine it might be different and yes I am being a smarta$$.
By far i think this article said it best and by the way see who their source was

@ #103 that she said “I always get what I want”, no nice girl would say something selfish like this.
And that’s RachCrap for/to all of you… as the “”Ultimate Brainless Wonder””!
Where is the “eff-me”-sign on her forehead?!

Hey Rach! How about the p0rñ industry? Ever thought about that? LOL
Keep typing you anti people are doing great…….One day you may grow a brain and understand your posts here are great you all just add to it and those that like get more pictures Kudos to all.
That is not me–I don’t post in capitals-try again fake or have the guts to post under a real names-I’d actually respect you more for it.–yawn you are boring
@ sharon
I’m not the one making accusations. It’s your responsibility. Put up or shut up about it.
@ sharon 110
This is the diclaimer for the Insider post you gave a link to. Just another poster with an opinion like here.

i’m happy for her, i had better hopes for her. but at least she’s doing something she CAN DO. she can dress well, might as well talk about it and earn some money.
not a good actress but cute as hell.
To Lexie and Sharon, or anyone else who cares in regards to the Edie Rose line: HIlary Duff said on a morning tv talk show that she has a fashion line coming out with DKNY for the “fall 2009 and holiday season”. It is a limited edition. Rachel’s Edie Rose line was similar for the fall and holiday season of 2008. It sold out quickly online and was not ” pulled” because it has a dress in it similar to another designer’s dress. Fashion houses are very aware of the designs they put out and legality, there are many “knock off” dresses/outfits with slight differences made from famous designers to sell to the average person at prices they can afford. An example are the gowns similar to the ones stars wear to red carpet events that are created that can be bought at lower prices, these are seen on tv from time to time. Rachel’s line was a success because it sold out quickly oniine. Unless DKNY makes more, since it was a limited edition, there probaby won’t be anymore of this line. Watch Hillary Duff’s line this fall, I bet something similar will happen. She is popular, it will probably sell out quickly as well. Look online if you want more “proof”.
@ answerer
Thanks for your complete and well explained answer.
I had posted earlier in this thread that every search I’ve ever done for Edie Rose only said it sold out and some of the pieces sold out within a short time after it’s debut. @38
I never found one report of it being pulled. Like you said DKNY has a legal department and they would not make simple mistakes even with their limited edition lines. Gwyneth Paltrow has a line of clothes coming out too.
I must say RB’s (pr) agent/publicist does an “audacious” job of packaging up an empty canister and placing her like the bubbling champagne. It’s great to be able to understand someone when you peel off the layers of icing placed upon her by her agents & publicist. It’s finally great that the people are exposing the truth about this woman who seems to lack substance and tried to pass herself off beyond her true ability.
What the moral of the story? Don’t try to oversell yourself. People expect more from you but you can’t produce, do the job well, or carry off another fluff. People will begin to understand and see the truth and that’s where it hurts. So stop trying to be relevant at any cost, nobody respects that kind of fame!
@120
How well said.
Here is Rachel without the thick eyeliner and expensive clothes:

I have to admit, he looks good, she is a midget witch.
She’s tries way too damn hard. Minimal talent and even less intelligence. If she really has nothing “genuine & significant” to come up with, she should give it up, bow out gracefully & and “spare” all of us her celebrity wannabee fame desperation & homeliness!
@ 117 - not a good actress but cute as hell
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ… anyhow, physical attributes eventually “fades & get rotten”. What’s inside of a person “lingers & tend to last”.
@ 120
Only your opinion. Other’s opinions vary elsewhere. You know there is a larger world out there beside JJ message boards. Rachel has been consistently on worldwide top 10 best dressed lists for the last year or so.
Who are you preaching to by the way?
