Todd Selby is getting his first-ever solo show in Paris's Colette featuring watercolors, video instillations, and, most notably, his photographs of creatives in their homes or at work. While creating new images for the show in Paris, Colette's Sarah Lerfel challenged Selby to photograph 20 people in a little over a week. His latest subjects include Jacques Grange, stylist Lisa Nalin, and artist Xavier Veilhan.

The show at Colette runs March 30-May 2, but if you are in Paris this week, stop by The Selby's Window Apartment for advance signed copies of his book or to have a portrait taken or your favorite pet.

>> Andre Leon Talley Is Now on Twitter —Just last week at a Barnes & Noble-hosted panel, Andre Leon Talley said he didn't Twitter; when told there was an account in his name, he replied, "Please! It’s fraudulent, it’s fraudulent! It’s fake, it’s bogus.”  It seems that the discussion prompted him to join the social network today, a move announced by Diane von Furstenberg.  His inaugural Tweet? "At Diane von Furstenberg's looking at clothes from the last 4 years for a retrospective show in Sao Paulo, Brazil." [@InsideDVF, @InsideDVF, @OfficialALT]

>> Christian Lacroix has severed all ties with his namesake brand, instead focusing on designing theater costumes, hotels, and the like through his XLCX studio, but there's still plenty going on at the label.

Although ready-to-wear and couture were shuttered with the house's bankruptcy, Nicolas Topiol, Lacroix's CEO, is busy rolling out new licensing deals for the brand. Existing partners for menswear, silk, and bridal dresses stuck by the company, and soon there will be new product categories for Lacroix like women's eyewear and sunglasses, stationary, and home textiles.  Topiol said he's also in advanced discussions to reenter innerwear and children's wear with new licensing partners, and talks are under way for the production of various other women's and men's accessories.
