Kelly Osbourne wants to design her own clothing range

By emilyborrett on August 24th, 2011

“Fashion Police” host Kelly Osbourne has said that she hopes one day to design her own fashion line.

Kelly, who is currently the face of Madonna’s Material Girl fashion line, must have been inspired by Madge and Lourdes’ celebrity venture into the fashion industry, because now she wants to start her own.

When Kelly was recently asked what she’d like to have achieved in ten years, the presenter/journalist/singer/wild-child replied, “That’s hard – I don’t even know where I want to be tomorrow most of the time. I would have loved to have starred in 10 more movies and designed my own fashion line by then.”

Kelly’s got an interesting sense of style which is a cool blend of high-end designer with old vintage and punk styles, so we’d love to see what The Gobby One could come up with. Kelly – this is a challenge. DAZZLE US.

Kelly Osbourne says she would refuse to recycle outfits if she were Kate Middleton

By emilyborrett on August 8th, 2011

Kelly Osbourne confessed on the “Tonight Show” that if she were the future Queen of England, like Kate Middleton is, she would refuse to recycle her outfits.

The gobby “Fashion Police” presenter spoke out about Kate Middleton’s recent habit of wearing the same clothes in public more than once, which she’s been applauded for by the media.

Kelly said on the “Tonight Show”, “Well, I’m sorry, but if I had that job, I would only wear it once. If I am going to be the future bloody Queen of England, I’m going to wear that dress once, because I’m giving up the rest of my life, all of my privacy, at least I can get a new dress every day.”

It’s a nice dream but probably an expensive one, Kelly. What do you think of K-Middy’s recycled wardrobe – yay or nay? Let us know.

Madonna’s Material Girl is launching a beauty collection

By Andrea Petrou on July 19th, 2011

Madonna’s Material Girl is launching a beauty collection.

The fashion label – which the singer designs with her 14-year-old daughter Lourdes – will expand to include a range of nail polish, lipgloss, body sprays and lotions in Macy’s New York next month with eye-shadows following in September and Lourdes loves choosing her favourite products.

She explained to WWD: “It was so much fun getting to pick all of my favourite scents for the Material Girl body products and lip glosses. The body products have fun names like Wicked Watermelon, Flirty Fruit, Midnight Magnolia and Sinful Sugar. I chose scents that I loved.”

Lanie List, chief merchandising officer at Iconix Brand Group – who have partnered with Material Girl on the collection – revealed Lourdes has a “very sophisticated eye” but all choices have to be approved by her mother.

She said: “Lola is 14 but she lives in New York City and has a very famous mom, so she has a very sophisticated eye. Lola is here once a month and sometimes more. She brings stuff from her own closet for inspiration. For the bath and body products she probably had 100 scents in front of her. She has a very mature approach to product development.

“Madonna definitely has creative input also. It’s a collaboration between the two. If Lola goes to a place with an idea that Madonna doesn’t think is appropriate for the brand, she’ll veto it. She’s a branding expert.”

Madonna’s alleged stalker declared unfit to stand trial

By shinychris on March 18th, 2011

Grzegorz Matlok – who was arrested last Saturday (12.03.11) after breaking into the ‘Material Girl’ hitmaker’s £10 million home in London – did not enter pleas to charges of burglary in court earlier this week, and it was instead ruled he will be held in custody until April 14 so his mental health can be assessed.

Grzegorz was wrestled to the ground by bodyguards at the 10-bedroom mansion belonging to the 52-year-old singer in London’s Marylebone area at 5.30am on Saturday, after being found clutching several of her possessions.

Despite having a huge security team and a state-of-the-art CCTV system in place, the Polish-born intruder – who the singer’s bodyguards told police was a ‘stalker’ – gained entry to the Georgian townhouse by smashing a side window.

Speaking of the incident, a senior police source said: “Something dreadful has happened here. The security around the world’s most famous pop star should be impregnable.”

At the time of the break-in, Madonna – who has four children, Lourdes, 14, Rocco, 10, Mercy, six, and five-year-old David – was in Bay City, Michigan, paying her respects to her late 99-year-old grandmother, Elsie Mae Fortin, who had helped raise the singer and her five siblings after their mother died of breast cancer when Madonna was just five.

Taylor Momsen: Madonna and Lourdes’ new Material Girl

By emilyborrett on July 15th, 2010

Material Girl's new campaign ad Gossip Girl star and self-proclaimed “bad girrrl” Taylor Momsen is set to become the spokesperson for the “Material Girl” line, designed by Madonna and Madonna’s wonder-girl Lourdes. The eighties-inspired juniors’ collection is set to hit Macy’s in the U.S.A next month.

I’m surprised that Lourdes herself wasn’t chosen to front the brand; after all, Madonna is the original Material Girl (as Macy’s keeps reminding us) and Lourdes is the spitting image of her pop-icon mama. Taylor looks her usual surly, racoon-eyed self posing for the brand’s first ad campaign in a stripy miniskirt, black fur gilet and some very Desperately Seeking Susan-esque biker boots.

If you’re as curious as we are about Lourdes’ and Madonna’s new clothing range, Material Girl’s first EVER advertisement was released on the internet and can be viewed here.

It seems today is a day for singer and designer collaborations. Hot off the news that Amy Whinehouse is teaming up with Fred Perry comes the announcement that queen of pop Madonna will also be collaborating with Iconix Brand Group Inc.

The singer will be teaming up with the company behind labels as Badgley Mischka (a favourite with Dame Helen Mirren) and Candie’s (as modelled by Britney Spears) to launch her MG Icon Range of clothing.

And her first foray into the design world will be a Junior Range, w aptly named Material Girl, which will be sold in Macys from August, and includes clothing, footwear, bags and jewellery.

However, we won’t have to be struggling to get ourselves into these, as next year the designer will also be creating something for the “grown ups” and will extend her range to beauty and fragrances.
