Penelope Cruz is about to get on a boat. Check the heels. My, my, what stilts they are! The perfect point to make a point – and a pose – in. And to have a sea of men to help you – that is the mark of a true movie star. Note one gentleman helping [...]
Johnny. Cannes. You are most welcome. He was, of course, in Cannes for the premiere of the fourth installment of the Pirates franchise. Read all Cannes 2011 posts.
Oh, Ms. Swinton – that wardrobe voodoo – you do it so well. When all the others are in prom dresses and trains, you jump on a state-of-the-art jet plane. And it’s first class all the way, with ne’er a hair out of place. Earlier that day, Ms. Swinton had shown up for a photo [...]
If you are going to be on the biggest film red carpet in the world, then really, you should go big or stay home. Never a shy one, Fan Bing Bing, went for full-on colour and maximum impact in a traditional gown. In Cannes, it’s best to walk softly and carry a big dress, and [...]
When it comes to the Cannes Film Festival, Aishwarya Rai is a trained professional. She’s been riding this particular red carpet train for about 10 years now. No arguing that she is a gorgeous woman, but I wish she’d change up the look once in a while. This wasn’t Aish’s first train – and it likely won’t [...]
If you were intrigued by the trailer, you will love the full-length version of Karl Lagerfeld’s The Tale of a Fairy, the short film that premiered with the showing of the Chanel 2012 Resort/Cruise collection in Cap d’Antibes, France a few days ago. If the foie gras is finis, then get the langoustines and Perrier-Jouet. Part One: Part [...]
Beeeeautiful, no? Image: Vogue.com.
It’s that time of year again – believe it or not. It seems just like last month that I was writing about Karl’s take-over, make-over of St. Tropez. Well, today, Cap d’Antibes, France was a-flurry with Chanel Resort 2012 antics – the kind of antics that only Uncle Karl can elicit from his entourage of [...]
Yaz-oo! Look who is back in a major campaign… The one and only, Yasmin Le Bon was shot by Juergen Teller for the Moschino SS11 ads. Lovely to see her in my mags again – she’s always been a favourite. I miss models with personality. Images: Moschino.
That ghostly quality in the Kristen M Vogue Italia cover? I also saw it in Givenchy’s SS11 ad campaign. Images: TFS.
The fashion sun rises and sets on the Supes. Notice how the light shines through Kristen McMenamy, photographed by who else but Steven Meisel for the May, 2011 issue of Vogue Italia. Image: TFS.
Wish I had these wicked wicker stilts. Where’s a fairy goth-mother when you need one? Image: Fashionishing.
If you are going to wear a frock adorned with birds, to say, a McQueen tribute evening… Why not wear a McQueen bird dress? I just find it hard to swallow. See all posts on the Met Ball 2011. Images: JustJared.com and Netaporter.
Was I? Were you? Seeing triple blue on the red carpet last night? Can’t say any of these blue me away. Blew me over, maybe. See all posts on the Met Ball 2011. Compare it to last year’s red carpet: I Knew It When We MET METaphors and Similes METa Data Déjà Vu: Have we [...]
Sometimes when I view the looks from a red carpet event, I wonder… Did everyone coincidentally decide to wear a tikka head-piece or were all the stylists chatting at the Campari cooler (surely, celeb entourages can’t just be fed plain old water)? You need a certain grace to pull off forehead adornment. Think Indian maharani [...]
