The alter ego of Nicola Roberts

By alanamcverry on April 23rd, 2010

NicolaRob22.jpgAs far as my opinion of Nicola Roberts goes, she’s not someone I give too much thought to. I think she’s a reasonably stylish gal, despite her unfortunate beginnings in a television created bubble pop band. Big fan of the red hair and the pale skin, yet something has gone very wrong here. So lets learn a lesson, if you are slapping on the suncream to keep your skin pasty white this summer (as I will be), you have to be more careful with what you wear. Particularly if you’re quite slim too, showing off too much skin can just make you look like a bit ill. Combining a fragile pasty frame with a very small outfit and nothing to fill it reminds me of ladies of the night funding some kind of habit thats emaciated their frames. If you subscribe to the petite and pasty club, all showing dresses never look right. Even dita von teese tends to only show off one asset at a time at most, otherwise there’s just too much glaring white skin on show. So cover it up a bit, and tone down the colour if you want to avoid looking like your biggest fashion influence was the older side of the red light district. I’m not suggesting she’s all the way there with this outfit, but she’s definitely buying her ticket.

By alanamcverry on April 20th, 2010

The sun’s gracious presence has once again opened up what will soon be a whole host of festivals. Over the past decade the festival image has been transformed from grungy 16 year olds smoking illegal’s at campsites on their few precious nights of freedoms from the olds; to a style spotting plethora of new trends to rival the top cities fashion week offerings.

Dita Von Teese teams up with Moschino to design an eye mask for charity.

By Andrea Petrou on February 4th, 2010

Dita and Moschino.jpg

Another famous figure has put their designing hat on for charity and this time it’s Dita Von Teese. The burlesque dancer has teamed up with Moschino to create a luxurious eye mask with 30% of the proceeds from each one going to amfAR, a charity that funds AIDS Research.

The handy sleeping accessory is made out of silk-satin with a spotted lack overlay and pictures of eyelashes we can only dream about as well as the words ‘Dita for Moschino’ in rhinestones.

We think its a perfect way to look good while you’re sleeping, and a great way to shut out any light or disturbances. We just wish someone would think about creating some designer earplugs to match.

Buy the mask exclusively from Moschino now for £100.

Dita Von Teese shows of her sweet and naughty sides in a photoshoot for Harper’s Bazaar Russia

By Andrea Petrou on October 12th, 2009

dita-von-teese-harpers-bazaar-russia.jpgBurlesque dancer Dita Von Teese shows there are two sides to her personality during a photoshoot for Harper’s Bazaar Russia where she depicts a sinner and a saint.

The model showed off her sweet side in a Lacroix wedding dress with rosary style beads and then did a complete 360 for her devilish side where she posed in her Part Edition line for Wonderbra.

We’re not sure which side we prefer.

Haute Couture Fashion Week Spring 09: Dita Von Teese, Mischa Barton and Kanye West at Elie Saab

Elie Saab Dita Von Teese Mischa Barton.jpg

Dita Von Teese and Mischa Barton celebrate Elie Saab’s Spring 2009 Haute Couture collection with the designer. You can read about the confectionary collection at the link above. While we find Von Teese’s hair and makeup a bit harsh, her black ensemble is perfection. Mischa Barton’s short, one-sleeved gown and over-the-shoulder hairstyle looked most glamorous while seated on the runway, as you can see after the jump.

If you’re about to sit front row at the Dior Couture show , it’s a given that you’ll wear (or borrow) some gorgeous Dior to wear while doing it. That’s exactly what devoted Dior fan Dita Von Teese and clothes horse Mischa Barton did in Paris yesterday…

Celebrity wish lists from Dita Von Teese, Chanel Iman and other fashion faves

By Andrea Kiliany Thatcher on December 19th, 2008

dita_giftguide.jpg

Net a Porter have got some fabulous fashion faces guest editing their gift guides this year, and I love ‘At Home With Dita Von Teese‘, where the burlesque star gives some tips on looking glamorous 24/7, as well as recommending her favourite indulgences (Roland Mouret, Louboutins and MAC makeup). Even without the wads of cash needed to buy the gifts, it’s worth flicking through the guide for some tips. Dita suggests wearing brooches in your hair, Chanel Iman wants world peace, and Giuseppe Zanotti recomments fashion canapes. What’s not to love?

Demarchelier poses above with Anna Wintour, and Mr. and Mrs. Johnny Hallyday (think the French Elvis). For pics of Dita von Teese, Milla Jovovich and Jessica Stam, keep reading.

ShinyStyle Gallery: Dolce & Gabbana bring out the stars at Milan Fashion Week

By Andrea Thatcher on September 25th, 2008

Dolce & Gabbana’s spring 2009 girl is not worried about the failing economy – she slept through the news of all the banks failing. The designers call this collection Pajama Baroque, a slightly upscale version of the name we gave it – sexy pajama party. More Upper East Side than Playboy Manion, naturalmente. This is one line that did not pander to woes about an economic crisis and we’re happy for it because it’s also one of the more exciting collections we’ve seen.

Star power doesn’t hurt either. J.Lo, Dita Von Teese, models galore…they were all front row and on the runway.

Even if the show doesn’t go on, we’ll still have Elton John’s Oscar party

On Monday we told you that sadly the Golden Globes would not be going ahead due to the ongoing writers’ strike. What if the Oscars are next?! Although we’re sympathetic to the writers’ cause, we couldn’t help but feel a little bit disappointed about the lack of red carpet action. But maybe there will be some stylish action…

Elton John and David Furnish have announced that despite the possible lack of awards ceremony their annual Oscar party and charity event for his Aids Foundation (sponsored by Chophard and VH1) must definitely go on.

Fashion News Roundup: Dita Von Teese, Project Runway and more

By Andrea Thatcher on December 6th, 2007

Fabsugar has been on a Who Wore It Better marathon! Take your choice between Heidi Klum or Jennifer Hudson in a Michael Kors jumpsuit (yes, we said jumpsuit), Audrina Patridge or Mischa Barton in an Alexander Wang metallic dress (Audrina just looks cold) and Dancing With the Stars’ Julianne Hough or Susan Sarandon’s daughter Eva Amurri in a Jay Godfrey bow dress (this is our favorite look).

Check out party pics from Karl Lagerfeld’s private Party at London’s Nobu on Catwalk Queen here and here (more on Emma Watson’s foxy new look to come).

Fashionista points out that Nina Garcia is kind of contradicting her own magazine on Project Runway. On last night’s ep the judges threw some “passe” fashions at the wannabe designers to remake, the only problem is that many of these fashions have been recently featured in Elle!

Dita Von Teese makes us all jealous with her holiday pinup parade, and Lipstick Panic is no exception.

Check out Britney’s Versace bag over at TheBagLady.

The Philadelphia Museum of Art makes room for fashion, as does The Philadelphia Inquirer.

7th%20on%20Sale%201.jpg

The girls over at sister-site Catwalk Queen have been busy choosing their favorite dresses from last night’s 7th on Sale gala, and we’re ready to do the same. The three day sample sale was kicked off in glamorous style with Elle Macpherson, Valentino Garavani, Iman, and Kate Moss on the red carpet. It was classic black for these fashion big names, no toying with colours. Elle wore a simple strapless black dress, with pleated detail on the hip, while Iman’s dress featured tiers of ruffles, with metallic silver accents and a sheer top. Valentino and Kate prefered sleek black blazers, well Valentino is actually wearing a three-piece suit.
