    Two years ago the CFDA introduced a pretty novel idea—a fashion incubator. They took over an entire floor of a garment district building in New York and offered a handful of young design upstarts the chance to move in. Their rent would be subsidized, they’d benefit from a community atmosphere and, when lucky, industry veterans coming and going in the new space. Now it’s time for the first group, including Prabal Gurung, Bibhu Mohapatra, Alice Ritter and Waris Ahluwalia, to move out and make way for the next round of designers. In May, the following designers will take up residence inside the incubator: Antonio Azzuolo, Arielle Shapiro, the Burkman Brothers, Christian Cota, Emanuela Duca, Ricky Hendry and Marc Daniels (who design Isaora together), Luis M. Fernandez, Reece Solomon (of Reece Hudson), The Lake & Stars and Timo Weiland. Target’s renewing their contract to sponsor the space and NYU’s Stern School of Business will give the designers a chance to partner with MBA students on finance and business plans. The CEO of FashInvest, which pairs young designers with suitable investors, calls the program the “holy grail of incubation. They have it all, from real estate at a discount to mentoring of firms in the targeted area. It’s the mentorship in the long term that can really move these businesses along.”

    While bloody sword and sandal epics have been around since the time of Homer, this week’s Conan the Barbarian raises the stakes by letting the audience get closer to the gore with the addition of 3-D. Starring Game of Thrones’ Jason Momoa as the titular Conan, this remake of the 1982 Arnold Schwarzenegger camp classic is a visceral (and yes occasionally barbaric) adventure with a few more beheadings than its predecessor. Offsetting the hulking Momoa is the lovely Rachel Nichols as Tamara, a sprightly if unlikely monk. Though Nichols looks like she’d be more at home in a Noxzema commercial, she’s spent the last few years in action-packed roles from Star Trek to GI Joe: Rise of the Cobra. In Conan, Nichols not only tags along with the namesake hero, she occasionally gets to save the day. We caught up with Nichols to ask about which stunts were her favorite, the perks of being tall, and how exactly to survive the a red carpet.

    According to Kellan Lutz, Robert Pattinson wants to design his own clothing line! Kellan said, "Rob and I were talking about doing clothing lines, and he found out I was doing one (Abbot+Main) and was like 'I should do one.'' Kellan also said that Rob would call his line "Rags by Rob," which is hilarious since Rob always dresses in shaggy tshirts, old jeans, and finishes the look with his signature unwashed hair. And you know what? We might actually be into that! Rob's whole Brit-grunge look is really hot and we're sure he has a lot of great creative designs! What do you think? Would you wear something designed by Rob? (usweekly)

    Turning 90 is a pretty big deal, so it’s not surprising that Gucci’s pulling out all the stops in honor of their not quite centennial. First there was the yacht, and now there’s the car.  The brand’s Creative Director, Frida Giannini, has partnered with another Italian heritage brand, Fiat, to make the cute little car seen above. The special edition cars, the Fiat 500 and Fiat 500 Cabrio, were inspired by neo-classic black and white films and come in the two contrasting colors—they’ll debut on Fashion’s Night Out. Gucci’s signature red and green stripe runs around the Fiat 500 and over the cloth top of the 500 Cabrio convertible. As for the finer details, the designer’s cursive signature adorns everything from the mirrors to the door handles, and—if the driver happens to slow down—passers-by can spot interlocking G’s on the hubcaps. And don’t worry, the brake pads are green to prevent clashing with your Gucci loafers. Not ready to commit to a luxury branded car? Gucci stores will carry travel accessories like gloves, sunglasses and track suits so you can be like Joey Tribbiani with his Ferrari key chain and hat.
