Star Style: Sienna Miller is lady in red at New York premiere of ‘The Mysteries of Pittsburgh’

Following on from her (we think) successful turn in Jonathan Saunders at the ShoWest Awards Gala last week, Sienna Miller keeps it simple – but striking – in a red shift dress, black tights and peep-toe heels at the premiere of her new film The Mysteries of Pittsburgh in New York City. Loving the colour, the nipped-in waist and the braided ‘do (will be trying that one out later…), but perhaps not so keen on the tights and peep-toe look. What do you think?

When Michelle Obama met Carla Bruni-Sarkozy…

What do the two most fashion-forward First Ladies wear when they meet up? That was the question everyone was wondering last week and on Friday we got our answer. US First Lady Michelle Obama wore a black and burgundy floral coat, which she later removed to reveal a reverse print dress – both by Thakoon. Her French counterpart Carla Bruni-Sarkozy wore a gray suede Dior coat and a matching shift dress, with her trademark Dior flats. Who do you think won the First Lady fashion face-off?

What Kate wore: Check out Ms Moss at the New York Topshop opening

Topshop’s New York flagship has officially opened – hurrah! – and who else would Topshop boss Sir Philip Green call upon to help dredge up even *more* excitement, than the one and only Kate Moss. La Moss made her grand entrance only two hours ago, wearing an emerald green floor-length Grecian dress from the new collection, which she covered up with a leather biker jacket from her previous A/W Topshop collection.

Kate Moss lands in New York, makes a beeline for Topshop

Kate Moss landed in New York yesterday ahead of today’s official Topshop USA opening.

The supermodel showed off one of her new spring ’09 designs for the retailer, a full-skirted floral dress which will retail for £60, worn under a cropped black jacket. She matched her outfit with a pair of black tights, heels and a fringed bag designed by Genevieve Jones.

As for the store opening today, which is taking place as we type, according to Twitter updates from Fashionista, Nylon and The Cut (who are diligently queuing up outside, go girls!), Kate is wearing a long lime green chiffon jersey dress and a biker jacket from her collection. Hope those who are bravely queuing are ready to fight it out London-style once safely inside…

Michelle Obama-watch: Arriving at 10 Downing Street

Creating a worldwide fashion frenzy since she stepped onto Air Force One yesterday afternoon, First Lady Michelle Obama has admiring fashionistas still in a tizz on Day One of her first official visit to Europe, as she and her Presidential hubby Barack rocked up earlier today to knock on the door of 10 Downing Street.

While she favoured up-and-coming US designers Thakoon and Jason Wu for her departure and arrival outfits, she donned high street favourite J.Crew for her meeting with UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown and his wife, Sarah.

The embellished ivory cardigan and textured mint green skirt was finished off with a double strand of pearls and was perfect for the sunny, spring weather in London this morning. It has to be said too, it was a particularly good choice given the protest situation in London today – anything too flashy could have come off as highly inappropriate. Make sure you keep checking back as we dig up pictures of Michelle’s meeting-the-Queen outfit!
