Best Dressed: Milla Jovovich in Prada, Kirsten Dunst in Chanel and More

Posted: 20 May 2011 03:09 PM PDT



Cannes continues to provide more great looks to fill our best dressed posts. This week Milla Jovovich and Zoe Saldana made candy cane stripes look chic, Milla in custom Prada and Zoe in Armani Prive. Bar Rafaeli, post split from Leo Dio, certainly knows that looking good is the best revenge, as evidenced here in this skin tight Cavalli (it was backless, too). Gwen Stefani caught disco fever in a shimmering jump suit by Stella McCartney with a plunging neckline and Kirsten Dunst looked demure in blush-toned Chanel.

Last Night’s Party: Milly Turns 10 and Gets a New Home on the Upper East Side

Posted: 20 May 2011 02:46 PM PDT

Michelle Smith was all smiles with her husband/Milly CEO Andrew Oshrin Thursday night as they celebrated the opening of the first U.S. Milly boutique on 73rd and Madison. As Milly fans packed in for glasses of champagne and bites of shrimp and chorizo, the couple behind the label looked completely at ease in their surroundings. That's no surprise, since they say the outpost feels like a home away from home. "We live two blocks away," explained Oshrin, "and my job for the past two months was to be here at eight or nine every morning and make sure the construction moved on time," he added. While the shop is conveniently close to the couple's home, they're confident it's also a prime location for the Milly consumer. "Even though we feel it's sort of a destination store because it's above 72nd street, we think it really reflects who the core Milly customer is," he said.

Now that construction is finished, Smith and her husband were happy to show off the finished product as they welcomed party goers into the store. The designer wanted to evoke the feeling of her family's apartment and picked out everything from the matte dove-grey paint, to the Lucite and polished brass fixtures, to the vintage Milo Baughman chairs. "These chairs were originally chrome. I redid them in bronze and reupholstered them in the signature Milly pink," she said while pointing out the cheerful pop of color. The interior also boasts hints of French neoclassical architecture, a nod to her training in Paris. Smith notes her experience in couture at Hermes, Louis Vuitton, and Dior continues to influence the quality of her own label, as well as the boutique's aesthetic.

Adventures in Copyright: Guess Does Rodarte for Target for Over 10X the Price

Posted: 20 May 2011 01:15 PM PDT

For this edition of Adventures in Copyright, a reader tipped us off to another one of those copies that just doesn’t make sense at all. Guess by Marciano, the contemporary, “fashion-forward” extension of Guess, Inc., made the “Blair Vintage Dress,” (right) whose description reads, “With embellishments inspired by our favorite styles of eras past, this vintage-inspired dress is a classic reinvented.” By “eras past,” they must mean a couple of years ago, when Rodarte made this exact same dress for Target (left).

Maybe Guess thought they could get away with it since the Rodarte for Target version was in stores a couple of years ago, but thanks to the recent Go International re-release, the very same dress is not only still available–it’s on sale for $15.74. The Guess by Marciano dress is $168.

Adriana Lima Dishes On Her Beach Routine and Whether Daughter Valentina Will Follow In Her Footsteps

Posted: 20 May 2011 12:45 PM PDT

We have a serious girl crush on Adriana Lima, and not just because she drew our name in a $500 Victoria's Secret gift card raffle yesterday. (Although, yeah, that was awesome. But accidental. And I digress…)

At Thursday's Victoria's Secret Bombshell event in Soho, the Angel rocked a devilishly tight black mini and heavy kohl eyeliner for the 2pm gathering. Clearly the girl's got a bit of goth side, and we dig it.

But while Adriana favors sexier designers like Dolce & Gabanna and sports "midnight black" nail polish all summer, she's also got sweetness in spades.

Fashion News Roundup: Prada Goes Public, Sarah Ferguson Talks Royal Wedding, and Gaga’s Dress Sold for $20k

Posted: 20 May 2011 11:21 AM PDT

Prada's Stock Officially Goes Public: Want to own a piece of Prada? Its IPO will take place June 23 or 24 before it trades on the Hong Kong stock exchange. We wonder if shares come with a free bag. {WWD, subscription required}

Woody Allen + Dior?: Woody Allen's new film Midnight in Paris is full of high-end French luxury brands, like Goyard and…Christian Dior? One can only assume that the goods were given to the film before the Galliano scandal, or that Allen can easily dissociate the designer from the brand, which should make Dior very happy. {PageSix}

Sarah Ferguson Speaks and Says Some Weird Shit: Like that her husband, Prince Andrew, who she divorced in 1996, is her soulmate. And that she had to have her daughter, Beatrice, talk to the Harper's Bazaar people to help them deal with her mum's "freak out." Her new reality show on OWN may get a place on our DVR. {Harper's Bazaar}

The Lady Gaga Dress on Gilt Sold in Seconds: For $20,000. So don't be sad, because you couldn't have afforded it anyway. {The Cut}

The Best, Most Arty Nail Art, From NYC To Singapore

Posted: 20 May 2011 10:40 AM PDT

As you’ve probably already noticed, nail art has become increasingly popular these days, thanks to increased visibility on celebs like Lindsay Lohan (remember her awesome tie-dye/”fuck u” courtroom nail art?) and Serena Williams, who has her own collaboration with OPI and blings out her nails in the best way possible (though it’s undeniable that Flo Jo is the OG athlete with the most extreme nail art).

Being a personal nail freak, myself (I may or may not own an 11lb case of polish), I always appreciate a crazy manicure. So I’ve rounded up the craziest awesome-est manicures I could find–done with everything ranging from tiny beads to gems to bit of ribbon, all lacquered down with bomb-resistant levels of polish.

Here, some of the best from New York to Singapore.

Breaking: Nick Wooster Out at Neiman Marcus

Posted: 20 May 2011 09:58 AM PDT

Rumors have been flying on Twitter for the past few hours that Nickelson Wooster, the impossibly dapper mustachioed men’s fashion director at Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman has been fired. Sad but true: A spokesperson from Neiman Marcus has just confirmed to Fashionista that Nick Wooster is no longer with the company.

Neiman Marcus will not comment on his departure and it is not their policy to release any official statement about his exit. So until we get a release from wherever he shows up next–we’ll just have to cross our fingers and hope he lands somewhere worthy of his style and talent. If only so that the tumblr devoted to him and his style–fuckeyeahnickwooster–has a reason to go on.

Watch: Gwyneth Paltrow Rapping N.W.A’s ‘Straight Outta Compton.’ Really.

Posted: 20 May 2011 08:42 AM PDT



Remember when Jay-Z interviewed Gwyneth Paltrow for his new lifestyle site and she told him that her love for ’90s hip hop was such that she could “could sing to you every single word of N.W.A's ‘Fuck Tha Police’ or [Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock's] ‘It Takes Two’? Well, the new Coach ambassador can also rap every word to N.W.A’s “Straight Outta Compton” and did so on BBC One’s Graham Norton Show recently, proving that there is really nothing she can’t do.

Botox Mom Claims It Was All a Hoax, Good Morning America Still Finding Evidence That It Might Not Be

Posted: 20 May 2011 08:11 AM PDT

The latest, and one can only hope last, news about the now-notorious Botox mom is that–gasp!–it was all a hoax for money.

Or was it?

Sheena Upton, which is allegedly her real name, claims in a sworn declaration that The Sun paid her $200 to pretend that she injected her daughter with Botox for a story. In a TMZ video, "Sheena" said that she was doing an acting job and that she was "pushed into it." "Honestly, I don't even know what Botox is," she says. She also claimed her daughter was never in pageants.

Good Morning America, which had the duo on the show this week, is obviously annoyed that they were duped, so did some investigations of their own.
