Suri Cruise: Future Stylist?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News, Rumors, Girls
Make no mistake - Suri Cruise is her own stylist.
The three-year-old tot, daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, dresses herself and chooses all her outfits. Dad Tom said, “Just so you know, she dresses herself. She picks out everything on her own.”
Mum Katie - who has her own clothing line Holmes + Yang - admits she’s a huge admirer of her daughter’s sense of fashion: “She has such cute style.”
Although Suri chooses her own outfits, it was recently reported Katie spends $25,000 a month on her daughter’s clothes as she wants her to be the “most fashionable kid in Hollywood.”
A source said, “Dressing Suri in amazing outfits has become Katie’s favorite hobby. She’ll scour the internet and Beverly Hills shops to find items and get inspiration for different looks. One of Katie’s favorite looks is 80s-inspired - she puts Suri in leggings and long sweatshirts or bright dresses. Suri loves getting involved and choosing things too.”

Sarah Jessica Parker in Talks for Halston Gig
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, News, Rumors
Carrie Bradshaw Sarah Jessica Parker is rumored to be in line for a consulting job with Halston. The Sex and the City actress - who is often regarded as one of the most stylish women of her generation - is believed to be in talks about working with the coveted US fashion range as either the “creative director” or “design director.”
E! Online reported: “We hear that the Sex and the City fashion icon may end up with a much bigger role at the revived design house. A source tells us that Parker may actually land some sort of consulting gig with Halston. Titles being bantered about include creative director and design director.”
Last September, the website claimed Sarah - who was pictured on the set of the Sex and the City sequel wearing a white dress from the Halston Heritage Spring 2010 collection - was in talks over a major endorsement deal with the coveted label.
Another source added, “There’s quite a lot of vintage Halston in the movie.”
Sarah released her own line Bitten in 2007 and has had great success with her range of perfumes.
Audrey Hepburn’s Expensive Clothes
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News, Sales, Women, Dresses
Audrey Hepburn’s designer clothes collection sold at auction for over $400,000.
A set of 36 items belonging to the actress went up for sale in London’s La Galleria this past week, including a cocktail dress worn by the screen legend in the film How to Steal a Million - which raised $97,000.
Tanja Star-Busmann - who had been friends with Audrey from the age of 15 - revealed the actress was always a fan of passing her unwanted clothes on. She wrote in the auction guide:
“Over the years a cavalcade of boxes filled to the brim with haute-couture evening dresses, divine little cocktail ensembles, easy-to-wear silk supper dresses, sensible tweed coats, chic little day suits and glamorous dressing gowns, often accompanied by wonderful accessories, arrived at my door. Unpacking them was always like Christmas a thousand times over.”
The pricey cocktail dress was not the only item to sell well. A luxurious black silk gown which belonged to the late actress - who died in 1993 - sold for $27,000, and an exquisite wedding dress went under the hammer for $22,000. In 2007, a cocktail dress worn by the legendary actress in Breakfast at Tiffany’s sold for almost $162,600.
Victoria Beckham Collection Hijacked
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News, Rumors, Sales, Women, Dresses
Greatly resembling an outrageous, fictional plot, Victoria Beckham is sadly the victim of grand theft.
Nearly worth $600,000, Beckham’s dress collection (estimated at 50 to 75 pieces) were stolen last Thursday while en route to the airport for delivery to New York.
“Everyone from Madonna to Elle Macpherson has been seen wearing Victoria’s dresses and, as a result, they’ve developed a money-can’t-buy exclusivity about them. This operation was meticulously planned. The thieves must feel they can make a fortune selling the collection on the black market. The lorry was on its way to the airport where the spring/summer collection was to be flown to New York designers Neiman Marcus. After pick-up from Victoria’s London offices, the van was followed to another address,” a source said.
Cameras taped the robbery; however, the thieves’ license plate is too blurry to decipher. The dresses are expected to be remade (each dress reportedly has over 4,000 people on the waiting list).
Poor Victoria seamstresses!

Transformers Inspires Louise Goldin
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Fashion Designers, News, Sales, Women, Dresses, Footwear
Fashion designer Louise Goldin has once again collaborated with Topshop for their current Fall/Winter ‘09 collection, and she’s going sci-fi with the knitwear!
“The collection was inspired by Transformers and robots. I have a collection of Transformer memorabilia, both old and new; I find it very inspirational. I wanted to create a range of cool jumpers; I emblazoned some jumpers with robot artworks, and I looked at the various style lines and colors from the body armor of Transformer action figures to create dresses, leggings and tops. A particular favorite - the robot jumper with the leggings, and of course the shoes which will be coming soon!”

Katie Holmes and Suri Wear Matching Dresses
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News, Girls, Women, Dresses
Judging by a photo taken of Katie Holmes and her daughter Suri, the actress-turned-designer wasn’t kidding about that children’s collection; I was hoping she would at least spare the kids.
In the picture, Holmes and her mature daughter stepped out in matching red dresses from her range, Holmes & Yang.
I’m still in shock that Maxfield actually chose these designs over Victoria Beckham’s creations. Holmes could at least try to make her outfit look good (Suri, on the other hand, looks adorable)—is her stylist too busy sewing more ugly products?

First Look: Rodarte For Target
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Fashion Designers, News, Rumors, Women, Accessories, Dresses
Although its due date isn’t until December 20th, pictures of Rodarte’s Target line have surfaced on the internet, and now I’m even more anxious!
Not only do I want the Madonna-esque gloves and mustard (yes, that’s right) lace dress, but I think that I just may be more upset after having seen the images—my closet cannot wait two months for those pieces.
I have to admit that the ribcage graphic print dress (seen after the jump) is one that I do not fancy; however, there are 54 other pieces in the collection. Why can’t it be December 20th already?

Heidi Klum and Her Bump Dilemma
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, Models, News, Women, Dresses
Heidi Klum struggled to fit her baby bump in a gown for yesterday’s Emmy Awards.
The pregnant supermodel, whose raises three children with husband Seal, and is expecting a daughter in October, decided to wear a clingy black floor-length dress to show off to embrace her expanding figure because her stomach is too big to hide. Even though she had several fittings, the 36-year-old beauty said designer Georgina Chapman struggled to get the bespoke Marchesa gown to fit perfectly because her tummy was constantly growing.
“It wasn’t really hard for me, but it was hard for the woman that designed a dress for me. She started about two or three months ago and that’s kind of difficult… it’s black because I figure, at eight-and-a-half months, black is better! I think it’s elegant and slimming.”
The blonde beauty also revealed she will be in no hurry to lose her post-baby weight to return to lingerie modeling: “I was asked by Victoria’s Secret if it is possible, if I’m going to make it to their show. You never know how you are afterwards, so you kind of have to play it by ear and see what happens. So far—knock on wood—everything was always great. I felt great afterwards and I loved every minute of it, even the sleepless nights of getting up every two hours. But let’s see what happens. You can’t put all that pressure on yourself.”
Fashion Police: Sarah Silverman and Her Red Carpet Blues
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, News, Women, Dresses
While I don’t believe that comedienne Sarah Silverman has Victoria Rowell beat for worst dress at the Emmys, it’s still pretty bad.
I’ll at least give her credit for showing up at the red carpet in proper attire; however, I would think that there’d be something more flattering for her bottom half out there. An updo wouldn’t have hurt, either. Am I wrong, or should the humorous actress give a stylist a chance?
