Misshapes to Go Digital (Soon!)
The expansion and promotion of the Misshapes's je ne sais quoi continues apace. After months of planning, construction and a few obligatory hiccups, the downtown-dwelling, party-deejaying, trendsetting trio’s official Web site will launch, they say, as early as next week.

Agyness Deyn: The New Kate Moss?
