Kim Kardashian Praises Victoria Beckham Designs
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, News,
Reality star Kim Kardashian loves Victoria Beckham’s clothes.
The E! actress often struggles to find outfits which flatter her curvaceous figure, but says that the pop star-turned-fashion designer’s dresses are ideal for her shapely behind and busty frame.
“Victoria Beckham‘s totally my style icon. I wear her dresses constantly. There are some clothes out there I just can’t wear because of my body type. I definitely can’t wear short shorts! They’re not flattering! I also can’t wear anything too baggy, because being busty on top, looser fitting dresses almost make me look pregnant. I need to wear more fitted outfits. That’s why I love Victoria’s dresses so much - because they are so fitted and flattering for my body. I wear them all the time. I was so exited when Victoria Tweeted me. I’ve met her once. We have some friends in common, she’s very sweet.”
Kim’s struggle to find clothes to fit properly comes after years of needing to have her outfits altered: “I have to get a lot of my clothes customized.”
The 29-year-old beauty adores the British fashion industry, and is jealous of Kate Moss’ “effortlessly chic” sense of style. “I love British style icons. I went to see a show Alexa Chung put on out in New York. She totally has her own style and is so pretty. I also love Kate Moss. She’s just effortlessly chic,” she added.

Charlie Le Mindu Sends Naked Models Down Runway
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Fashion Designers, Fashion Shows, Hairstyles, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
We’ve seen some bizarre runway looks over the past year. Now wigmaker and Lady Gaga favorite Charlie Le Mindu is sending his own fashion shock waves by sending his models down the catwalk in their birthday suits for his Spring/Summer 2011 line.
While nudity is nothing new to the fashion industry (heck, many times, it’s embraced!), there are usually clothes involved—sheer, in most cases. This Frenchman, however, clearly wanted to highlight the hat, purse, and platform boots the nude models wore.

VIDEO: Taylor Momsen Sort of Fronts John Galliano Perfume
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, News, Videos,
Gossip Girl star-turned-stripper-rocker Taylor Momsen was hired by John Galliano to front his perfume campaign for Parlez-Moi D’Amour. This came as quite a shock, considering Galliano seems like he’d want someone with more class (and perhaps less eyeliner) to become the face of his high-end beauty product.
The first promo for the product (seen in the video above) for which Momsen was hired doesn’t actually have the actress in it. Well, not her face, anyway. Instead, the actress lends her vocal chords to a tune much softer than what her bandmates are used to playing. All in all, it’s not so bad, but who would honestly know that it’s her? Seems like some wasted money on Galliano’s part.

The “Love the Way You Lie” hitmaker - who is known for her eccentric dress sense - was awarded “The Daring Diva” accolade by People magazine in its 2010 Best Dressed List.

Meanwhile, Glee star Lea Michele picked up “The Newbie” award for her red carpet efforts and Rachel Bilson was praised for her stylish use of denim. However, it wasn’t just stars of stage and screen who were noted for their style choices.

Vivienne Westwood Advises to Avoid Buying Clothes For 6 Months
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Fashion Designers, Fashion Shows, Models, News,
Always innovative, Vivienne Westwood has advised fashion followers not to buy any new clothes for six months.
The iconic British designer, who showcased her Red Label Spring/Summer 2011 collection at London Fashion Week last night, made the unusual move of asking her fans to avoid buying anything new for half a year, suggesting quality, rather than quantity, is more important when it comes to clothing.
“My message is choose well and buy less. Don’t buy anything new for six months and recycle your clothes.”
The 69-year-old fashion guru - who is known for her environmental advocacy - received rave reviews for the collection, which was showcased at London’s New Connaught Rooms venue. Models - including Daisy Lowe - were sent down the runway splattered with blue face paint, wearing pieces from the new structured collection, including tailored jackets, pencil skirts and jersey dresses.
The show was one of the most star-studded of London Fashion Week so far, with a whole host of British stars turning out to the event. Lady Victoria Hervey, Girls Aloud singer Nicola Roberts, rugby ace Danny Cipriani and artist Tracey Emin were just some of the famous faces in the crowd, while Pamela Anderson - who revealed she is a big fan of the designer - was also spotted in the front row. “Vivienne really knows how to work it,” Pamela said.

Sarah Jessica Parker, Kate Moss and Anna Wintour were among the guests at Alexander McQueen’s memorial service today. The stars paid tribute to the British designer - who took his life on the eve of his mother’s funeral in February - alongside family and friends at London’s St Paul’s Cathedral.
Reverend Canon Giles Fraser opened the ceremony with a tribute to the iconic designer, saying, “It was a life lived in the public gaze, but it was as vulnerable and retiring as it was glamorous. Despite the dazzle of his world, he never forgot his East End roots and how much he owed to his loved ones.” Singer Bjork and a Scottish piper playing “Braveheart” accompanied the emotional service with music.

Julia Roberts is set to sign a $50 million deal with Lancome.
The Eat, Pray, Love actress was named as the face of the luxury beauty brand in January and she has proved so popular that she is on the verge of agreeing a new five-year deal.

To be 42 and have three kids and be a working mom, it’s a great moment to be asked to do this and to be able to do it.”
Lancome’s president Yousef Nabi also revealed the award-winning actress was serious about working closely with the brand. “Julia really wants to be involved in the development of products,” he told WWD.
