Elle says "peace out" to Nina Garcia.

What? This doesn't make sense. Even though Elle is one of the largest fashion publications, Nina definitely boosted their sales from being on "Project Runway."


"Elle is said to have parted company with its fashion director and “Project Runway” star and author Nina Garcia sources said late Friday," says WWD. The word has been circling around for months that Nina was going to be leaving after Joe Zee showed up as the creative director in spring 2007, when she was on maternity leave.


According to New York Magazine, The Cut, Nina's office was completely boxed and packed up waiting int he hallways to be shipped to her home in the Upper Eastside. "Nina's demonstrative speaking behind closed doors (made visible by a glass partition) also prompts one to believe that she was not leaving of her own accord."


Now where is Nina going to go?
