Items Du Jour: Jessica Alba Saves the Day, Tom Ford Confirms Next Film
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Editorials, Fashion Designers, Fashion Shows, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
—Louis Vuitton models walked down the catwalk with temporary tattoos from artist Scott Campbell. Ed Hardy much?
—Actress Jessica Alba has completed her good deed of the week, swaying a 21 year-old Chinese woman from getting plastic surgery to look like her, in hopes of winning her ex-boyfriend back.
—Burberry’s Fall/Winter 2010 ad campaign has hit the interwebs. The photos star a beautiful and British blend of models and musicians. Great, another reason to be jealous of not being British.
—After the critical success of his directorial debut, it’s no wonder that Tom Ford is taking on a second film. Unfortunately, he’s not letting any details slip just yet.
—Emma Watson attended the Glastonbury Music Festival looking somewhat stylish. I’m loving her Louis Vuitton corset, but not necessarily agreeing with her choice in blue jean shorts.

Mischa Barton Heavily Photoshopped in Philipp Plein Ad
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
The acting world doesn’t seem to want her, so Mischa Barton marches on with her recent foray into modeling. As of late, Barton appears in an ad campaign for German fashion designer Philipp Plein looking thinner (not to mention also oddly proportioned) than in real life.
In light of the onslaught of negative reactions to Ralph Lauren and Ann Taylor’s overly photo edited images, you’d think that clothing designers would have taught their graphic artists a lesson. Although Barton’s pose is odd to begin with, her waist and right hip and thigh look abnormal!
What do you think of the ad?

Tom Cruise Wants Katie to Design Menswear
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,
Tom Cruise wants his wife Katie Holmes to design a menswear range.
The former Dawson’s Creek actress launched her debut fashion collection Holmes & Yang - which was co-designed by her stylist and friend Jeanne Yang - two years ago and while it has been successful among women, Katie’s superstar husband is keen for the duo to branch out.
“The husbands always hang out at our meetings. They say, ‘When are you guys going to do the men’s collection?’”
As well as having a husband who wants some clothes designed for him, Katie also revealed Holmes & Yang are creating matching outfits for mothers and daughters to wear together. The 31-year-old beauty - who has a four-year-old daughter Suri with Tom - said, “They love matching mom. And it’s a limited time during which they really want to.”
Katie says she and Jeanne came up with the idea to do a clothing range as they wanted women to have wardrobes staple-based with uniforms for everyday wear: “We want to create pieces a woman can wear over and over, and people won’t necessarily say, ‘Oh, you wore that last week.’”
Gisele Bundchen Flaunts Perfect Post-Baby Body
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Editorials, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
Shot a mere two months after she gave birth, Gisele Bundchen is the current envy of most mothers as the photos from her Calzedonia Spring/Summer 2010 campaign are released.
The secret to her fabulous post-baby body? Gisele was kind enough to offer some pregnancy advice for the common folk: “I did kung fu up until two weeks before Benjamin was born, and yoga three days a week. I think a lot of people get pregnant and decide they can turn into garbage disposals. I was mindful about what I ate, and I gained only 30 pounds… What helps me is the fact that I had a natural birth and am breast-feeding.”
Check out the rest of the photos from the shoot after the jump!

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Fashion Shows, Models, News,
La Roux star Elly Jackson is to model for Viktor & Rolf’s menswear collection.
The flame-haired singer - well known for her androgynous dress sense and high-pitched vocals - will be the surprise guest model at the opening of the Dutch duo’s menswear fashion show in Paris today.
“We love her style. We love her authenticity. We love the way she plays with gender. So it felt logical. She’s right for our men’s clothes,” said, Viktor Horsting, one half of the design pair.
Elly herself also reveals she is a fan of wearing men’s clothes, although admits she is a novice when it comes to fashion shows: “I love suits. I wouldn’t feel comfortable in girls’ clothes. Apart from hairstylist Charlie Le Mindu, I’ve never been a fashion show before.”
Elly’s catwalk appearance will not be the only exciting prospect for Viktor & Rolf today - the pair will also be revealing their first collection of men’s bags at the show.
Madonna and Daughter Get Materialistic for Macy’s
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,
Madonna‘s clothing range with daughter Lourdes is an “extension” of her style. The pair have collaborated on a children’s clothing and accessories range for department store Macy’s, and Madonna confesses 13-year-old Lourdes brought much of her own personal style to the collection, entitled Material Girl.
“I think this line is absolutely an extension of her taste. We like to combine a plaid or a flannel with a lace or leather with lace or rhinestones. So we mix and match textures and fabrics and elements that are both masculine and feminine.”

Adriana Lima Goes Topless for V Magazine
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Editorials, Models, News,
Not unlike her fellow Victoria's Secret angel Gisele Bundchen, Adriana Lima is showing off her incredible post-baby body as well. Only with Lima, she's posing topless for the cover of V Magazine Spain. In what is appropriately titled "The Sexy Body Issue," Mario Sorrenti photographs Lima with a cute knitted Dior cardigan that she doesn't care to use. Also not surprising is the fact that you can barely see her extremely airbrushed face (not that she needs it!). The issue goes on sale July 4th, with four other models gracing the front of the magazine. Advertisements for V also tout the covers' oh-so-wonderful scratch-off feature.

Growing Up, Music Inspires Miley Cyrus Wardrobe
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,
Provocative dresser Miley Cyrus’ style is influenced by music she finds inspirational.
The 17-year-old singer-and-actress has caused controversy in recent months with her raunchy stage outfits, her music video for “Can’t Be Tamed” and her cover for the album of the same name but her stylist insists it’s just a “natural progression.”
“Miley’s style is a natural progression of her growing up and being influenced by the music that inspires her. The album cover was basically a strong statement saying in the most simple way, that she can’t be tamed - literally and metaphorically,” said Simone Harouche.
