Fashion Week buzz: Friday, Feb. 12

* Sure, Molly Simms looked great in her plastic dress at Wednesday’s Gen Art fashion show. But what does the five-time Sports Illustrated swimsuit hottie think of Brooklyn Decker, 2010’s SI cover girl? “I think she’s 22,” snapped Simms, who is 36.

* “Ugly Betty” actor Mark Indelicato, only 15, is already disgusted by snarky blog posts. “I get so tired of seeing people trash me,” he told Buzz at yesterday’s plaid Duckie Brown show. His solution? “I’d like to have a blog where I say nice things about people.” Good luck selling ads on that, Mark!

* Performances by Lady Gaga, Rufus Wainwright and even Meryl Streep had most guests at the star-studded amfAR benefit in a chatty mood. But James Gandolfini only wanted to talk trash. “Garbage garage,” he responded to questions about Fashion Week. Sorry, what? “Look it up, garbage garage.” The actor was referring to the planned sanitation complex in SoHo that a judge approved in spite of celeb objections from the likes of Kirsten Dunst, Jennifer Connelly and Lou Reed.

* Mayor Bloomberg may dress like a banker, but that doesn’t mean he can’t appreciate sartorial flair. “It’s always nice to wear something unique, something that people will remember you by,” Hizzoner told Buzz after announcing a new Modelinia Fashion Week show on the city’s NY25 TV channel. As for his own fashion flair, he says, “Well, I don’t think I’ll be remembered for my clothing.”

* We hear that Yigal Azrouël is planning an exclusive post-show lunch today with 13 of his closest friends at 10 Downing Food & Wine.
