Anna Kendrick’s fashion alliance

Marissa Webb, the former head womenswear designer at J. Crew, has helped Anna Kendrick get out of her “jeans and T-shirt zone.” Kendrick hosted a dinner for Webb at Barneys New York on Madison Avenue the other night toasting Webb’s collection. After exchanging e-mails, the two met in person the night before when Kendrick tried on Webb’s entire collection. “None of which require a tailor, which was impressive,” Kendrick told us, adding she’s working to push herself “to try new things.”
