Brad Goreski Sent Rachel Zoe Baby Gifts, Never Got A Thank You Note

The Huffington Post   First Posted: 01/03/2012 3:45 pm Updated: 01/03/2012 3:45 pm

The Rachel Zoe-Brad Goreski split was, by any measure, a messy one. Some would say the fallout was of the ugliest variety, others downplay the drama.

Last night Goreski handed the world yet another little peek into his current status with Zoe. Goreski famously broke with Zoe, his former employer, to start his own styling business. That venture is being documented by a new TV show, "It's A Brad, Brad World," which premiered last night on Bravo (to much fanfare, but we have to admit: we found it a bit boring and only watched about ten minutes).

Luckily someone kept the TV on over at Jezebel, catching Goreski's guest-appearance on Wendy Williams' show to promote the premiere. During the interview Williams made sure to ask what everyone always wants to know: what's going on with Brad and Rachel?

Wendy: Do you have any conversation with anybody in the Rachel Zoe camp -- her husband, anybody?

Brad: No.

Wendy: So you haven't seen the baby?

Brad: I have not seen the baby.

Wendy: Did you send a gift?

Brad: I did, I sent an Hermes tower. It had three baby toys in it.

Wendy: Did it get returned?

Brad: It did not get returned. It also didn't come back with a thank you note...

Eek. While our main question concerns the "Hermes tower" (what the heck is that?), we also are curious why a thank you note wasn't sent. We've always taken Rachel Zoe to be a polite, friendly lady, so why no card?

The only explanation we can think of is that the toy tower got lost in Skyler's chock-full closet.

See the clip in the video above and read more about "It's A Brad, Brad World" here. Will you be watching?

He's worth watching just to imagine the number of lockers he was stuffed into during junior high.

Get over this... She was a successful stylist, in the business for years. She hired him, spent time and money (it costs time to train), introducing him to people, working thru screwups, as most employers do if they believe an employee has potential. HE handed in his notice. Ethics declare he should not poach..
This is a huge business that is highly competitive. I'd have advised her NOT to do the BRAVO show.. I watched 2 or 3 shows and thought, 'this guy wants to be the star'... rut row.. .

It's going to do you No Good trashing Rachel Brad.  She gave you your Celebrity and a Show, without her you would be just another one of the 100's of Wardrobe Stylists running around LA.  Some people are bad with Thank You's.  I still haven't gotten one from a Wedding I went to in October but I don't run around telling everyone how bad this person is.  They aren't, they're just not on top of Thank You Notes.

I don't watch either of them. I used to watch Zoe because I liked seeing how she built and ran her business. I stopped watching her when she allowed herself to be manipulated by Goreski. I couldn't watch it after the season of crying and placation after which Goreski's arch enemy Jacobson was jettisoned and summarily trashed. Zoe's very successful, so I guess relenting to someone because he cries is the way it's done in Hollywood, but thankfully it doesn't fly in any other professional community in the world.

Does Brad really have enough business to do a show?

It's the Business of being a Stylist - you work 12-16 hours a day, I know, I did it for over 10 years.

There is no university that teaches styling in the fashion industry. The road to become a stylist is to be an assistant. That's exactly what Brad did. Then after 3 years as an apprentice, he had loftier goals of starting his own business. Perhaps he didn't fully disclose his plans with The Zoe Camp. But why should he? On the other side, assisting a high profile person as Zoe, gave Brad opportunities that perhaps she feels were not respected. Either way. Brad is obviously a kept man. Did anyone see his house? He jumped ship to do start his own gig. Zoe should be gracious and let it go. Not doing so makes her look petty. Petty is not good when building an empire.

Brad is sweet but too much of him is like gulping down a bottle of syrup. Nauseating.

I was at home recovering from surgery and I was channel surfing. So I saw Rachel Zoe's show on Bravo, and decided to take a look. Let me tell you...I don't like that woman at all. She is a vacuous, inane airhead and her husband is a wimp and that whole entire entourage of hers is nauseating. It's not a gift to dress someone because I've seen many of the celebrities she's dressed and they have wound up on the worst dressed lists as well as Rachel Zoe herself. I just don't get it with her...she appears to be a superficial bubble-brain and this guy is just a lesser version. If it weren't for someone in her tacky coterie of lunatics with a modicum of common sense, I don't know where she'd be.

I can't stand the way she talks, with her droopy mouth...I can't watch the show, but I saw her a couple of times on Project Runway..the chick looks like a junkie in need of a bath!! I agree with everything you said about her and her goofy husband! ..;)

Why do you attack her looks?  Really?  No one can change their face, unless you want to look plastic.

Completely agree...It was exhausting as a viewer putting yourself in her staff's shoes on how unorganized and disconnected she was....What I find grating is that she expects your soul when you work for her...apparently you are not allowed to have a personal life, grow or step out with a sense of self....

I must admit _ I thought to myself, "There is no way on earth Mister GoLightly is going to find himself watching a show with Brad Goreski..." Yes, when I find myself dug into an opinion I speak of myself in the third person. But after leaving my I.V. drip of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills plugged in way too long, Brad and his boyfriend crept into the cipher of my Bravo addiction. And I must admit - I was wrong. Way wrong. I think I actually like Brad's show 100 times more than I ever did Rachel Zoe's repetitive story line and whining. Brad is much more honest and realistic about his approach to fashion as well as his devotion to a quality of life. Bravo Brad!!! Bravo!!! (pun intended)...
