Lindsay Lohan Designing Shoes for 6126 Collection
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Footwear,
Lindsay Lohan has begun creating "timeless" shoes for her 6126 collection.
The 24-year-old actress, who was recently released from a three-month enforced stay at the Betty Ford rehab clinic in California, is working on a "glamorous" collection of footwear with business partner Kristi Kaylor, who reveals the actress is heavily involved in their design.
"I took inspiration from old Hollywood glamour and added a modern edge. It was key to make comfortable, timeless shoes that can easily go from day to night and feel cool, chic and glamorous," Lindsay said.
Kristi added, "She comes to meetings with tears, photos and fabrics. She brings her own shoes in to show specifics. She's ultra-prepared, all the time."
The troubled star hopes the shoes will be the kind women can wear from season to season and be hard-wearing. "They're timeless. You're buying an over-the-knee boot to wear for years," Kristi said.

Rumer Willis for Badgley Mischka
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Editorials, Fashion Designers,
Well, you have got to give the girl an A for effort. Rumer Willis, spawn of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis-turned-actress, is definitely paving her own path to stardom. What better way to do so than scoring an ad campaign for one of today's hottest labels?
Willis, 22, fronts Badgley Mischka's Spring/Summer 2011 campaign sporting three looks against a beachy paradise background.
While she undoubtedly looks much better in these photos than usual, the decision in choosing her to model the high-end gowns is rather off-putting. With dozens of other more talented and capable models in the industry (or even celebrities, for that matter!), it comes off slightly pathetic, knowing that the gig was awarded because of her parentage.
Am I being a little harsh? Perhaps. But when you compare her ads to the likes of all the other campaigns that have been released lately, her presence in the photos brings down the quality of the campaign.
The woman is definitely no Georgia May Jagger.
Check out the rest of the photos after the jump and decide for yourself.

Items Du Jour: Natalie for Dior, Sasha for Miu Miu, Leighton for Missoni
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Editorials, Fashion Designers, Models, News,
-- Natalie Portman is stunning in her Christian Dior ad for the fragrance Miss Dior. Knowing that she's an animal rights activist, I can't help but feel reminded of the "I'd Rather Be Naked" campaign...
-- Sasha Pivovarova returns to Miucci Prada's fashionable arms in her Miu Miu Spring/Summer 2011 ads, shot by Mert and Marcus.
-- Take that, Blake! Not to be outshined by her Gossip Girl co-star's Chanel gig, Leighton Meester strikes a pose for Missoni. When there's a will to do high fashion, there's a way.
-- Lindsey Wixson gets in front of Terry Richardson's lens for Opening Ceremony's Spring/Summer 2011 lookbook. Apparently, Terry can do cute and adorable without being sleazy.
-- Speaking of Richardson, Paris Hilton (remember her?) posted a picture of the two on her Twitter, propagating the news that she's going to be in a Vogue editorial -- Vogue Turkey, that is.

Lindsey Wixson is the new face of Alexander McQueen. The 16-year-old model will star in the label's new Spring/Summer 2011 brand images, which will appear in stores, billboards and on the fashion house's website.
In the shots, Lindsey - who has appeared in campaigns for Versace - has her hair neatly woven into a lattice-like plait and wears a sleeveless printed dress with delicate scalloped edges, set against a backdrop of butterflies. The campaign is the first one to have been directed by Sarah Burton, who took over as the label's creative director following the tragic suicide of Alexander McQueen last February.

Nicole Kidman Confesses to Botox Use
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,
Surprise! Nicole Kidman has confessed to using Botox.
The 42-year-old actress has previously denied using any cosmetic treatments to stop the appearance of any wrinkles, but now Nicole admits to trying the procedure but says it wasn't for her.
"I've tried a lot of things, but apart from working out and a good diet most things don't help. I even tried Botox but I didn't like how my face looked afterwards. Now I don't use it anymore - and I can move my forehead again!" Kidman is quoted as telling German magazine TV Movie.
The mother-of-three has always insisted she is "completely natural" and owed her youthful looks to taking care of herself: "To be honest I am completely natural. I have done nothing to my face or anything. I wear sunscreen, I don't smoke and I take care of myself, and I am proud to say that. Anybody can do anything to themselves - I don't judge - but personally I believe in being physically fit. That's how I was raised. I can't go in the sun because I'm fair-skinned. It was a nightmare when I was younger but it has its benefits now."
Quote of the Day: Alber Elbaz on Technology
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Fashion Designers, News,
"It's not that I don't like technology. My brain just doesn't capture it. I cannot drive, I cannot bike, nor do email. My boyfriend of 18 years thinks I stayed with him all these years because he helps me with the remote control."
-- Lanvin designer Alber Elbaz describes the extent of his technological capabilities.

Karl Lagerfeld Kind of Supports Emmanuelle Alt
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Fashion Designers, News,
Karl Lagerfeld thinks that Emmanuelle Alt will blossom in her new role at French Vogue.
The Chanel designer says he is a fan of the 41-year-old - who was recently named as the publication's new editor-in-chief - and thinks she has what it takes to be Carine's Roitfeld's replacement.
"Her style is her big shoulders, long legs, tight jeans, sleeves up to the elbow, one hip out. I personally like her. She's a handsome French woman. She has a style, but is it enough to make a whole magazine? As editor-in-chief, she may blossom."
Alexa Chung Recommends Quality Clothes
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Models,
Alexa Chung recommends investing in expensive items of clothing.
The model-turned-TV presenter - whose unique sense of style has seen her voted one of the world's most fashionable women - says it's important to splash out on a few quality pieces as they will never go out of fashion.
"My ultimate style tip is to invest in pieces that will see you through a good few seasons - I definitely think it's worth spending a bit more on clothes you'll wear time and time again."
Although she is into fashion now, Alexa, 27, insists it hasn't always been that way: "When I was younger, I didn't really care that much about clothes, to be honest. I used to live in cowboy boots and denim skirts, and I wore a lot of my brother's clothes! The highlight of my youth was seeing Vivienne Westwood's wedding dress on The Clothes Show. People say I've got geek-chic style, but I don't try to be geeky! I think I look cool. I'm short-sighted, so I have to wear glasses. My style generally is preppy and tomboyish - I never wear anything too sexy."
Rachel Zoe Feels Pressure for Clothing Collection
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,
Rachel Zoe doesn't want people to be disappointed by her debut clothing range.
The fashionista -- who made her name as a stylist to the stars with clients including Nicole Richie, Kate Hudson and Demi Moore -- is set to launch her first fashion line, The Rachel Zoe Collection, and is keen for it to live up to expectations.
"I'm a Virgo and I'm more -- I don't want to say negative -- but I'm the girl who thinks no one's coming to my birthday party, no one's buying my clothes, no one's reading my book, no one's watching my show -- that's just how I think. The same applies to this. I don't want to let people down. That said, she made a pointed effort to shake things up. I'd imagine everybody is expecting something from me that's kind of a 70s, uberboho-glam kind of thing, and, you know, very accessorised. And it's not."
