Barneys creative director, Simon Doonan, is welcoming the Jersey Shore troupe with open arms to Fashion Week. The NY Post reports that he simply j'adores the cast members because of "their complete and utter lack of pretension. That is a much needed ingredient of Fashion Week." Say what? Maybe their GTL routines throw off the scent, but these guidos and guidettes definitely have egos bigger than Pauly D's blowout at this point. We just hope someone seats The Situation next to Vogue editrix Anna Wintour and he's feeling like cougar for lunch that day. As for Doonan, he'd like to see "J-Woww wearing Alexander Wang, or doing a Rodarte thing." But you know she's going to sport her own line of tops (pictured) to Bryant Park.
