New Gown Collection by Vivienne Westwood at Luxury Wedding Show

A new collection of wedding gowns by Vivienne Westwood was presented at the last weekend’s first Luxury Wedding Show in London.

White classic gowns in the spirit of the dress of Parker’s heroine from “Sex and the City”, white gowns with the elements of rock, romance, and fiction. A cream gown, and she would not be Vivienne Westwood had she not created a scarlet gown!
Wedding gowns from the new collection by Vivienne Westwood are really unusual: the futurebride will find here a romantic image, the image of a peasant woman, who is led to the altar by her farming father, and even quite daring gowns reaching only the knees and looking quite traditional from the back






Makeup for Men: Guylashes

We are no longer surprised to hear the notions guyliner and manscara, and now there have appeared guylashes. The world of beauty uses this word to call makeup products for men

The British Eylure brand has decided to help the men, who want more than just the eyeliner, and presented a new product – false eyelashes for men. A pair of guylashes should cost about 4.75 pounds ($ 6.5). Now they are sold everywhere in the UK. There are two variants of guylashes – thick and thin, and both of them are attached with the help of an invisible adhesive tape. The novelty makes its owner have a real “Hollywood look”.
It might be a new product for the Europeans, but the market in Asia is already saturated with a variety of false eyelashes. The fact is that the average eyelashes of people in Japan are only 5.8 mm long, and it is almost a half of what the Europeans have. Japanese men have long used false eyelashes. For example, in 2008 the Japan Times newspaper wrote that there were more men with false eyelashes than women at the party in honor of the Shu Uemura brand in Tokyo.
As for Europeans, the product is of great interest, and men buy false eyelashes. The owners of the shops that sell guylashes note the great popularity of the new product.

H & M Holiday Family Ad Campaign

New Year holidays and vacations are on the way, and the H&M fashion-retailer reminds of family values. The models have been photographed together with their families in the advertising campaign of H&M, which will accompany the December collection.

The family ad campaign of H&M is a rare opportunity to see Georgia May Jagger in the company of her mother, the former supermodel Jerry Hall; Kristen McMenamy and her sons, Karen Elson with her sister. The creation of an advertising campaign was on the part of the well-knownfashion photographers Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin. It would be interesting to have a look at the photos of the collection itself.

Madonna to Launch Truth or Dare Fashion Brand

 Madonna reaches new heights in business. The Material Girl fashion brand, which is run by Madonna and her 15-year-old daughter Lourdes, stands firmly on its feet. But the 53-year-old star is also interested in more adult audience.

The Material Girl brand is designed for young girls, such as Lourdes. But the new brand is aimed at women aged 27 to 50 years. It is called Truth or Dare. The new name will appear on the fashion market next year, and the Truth or Dare brand will be producing shoes, handbags, and lingerie. The sales will start with the launch of a new fragrance.
Madonna’s partners in creating the new brand, Iconix Brand Group, look forward to great success. They are already collaborating with the singer as the partners of Material Girl, and have been able to see the commercial success of Madonna’s projects.
As for the new fragrance, the bottle design is already known. It is a minimalistic, hexagonal shape, with a gold lid and geometric logo. The composition of the perfume is still kept in secret.
It should be noted that Madonna has not given up the work on the Material Girl. Just last week she and Lourdes announced that they were looking for a new face to replace Kelly Osbourne in representing the brand’s collections. The daughter of the famous musician Ozzy Osbourne has significantly increased the sales of the brand and brought the invested money back successfully, but Madonna and Lourdes do not want to stand still and are willing to change and surprise.

Breaking Dawn Sex Scenes R Rated.

The new installation of the Twilight saga, Breaking Dawn – Part 1 is set to be a blockbuster with its breathtaking sex scene adding so much to the expectations that – the star beauty of the film and the famous scene’s heroine Kristen Stewart shares – it moved the MPAA into giving the film an R rating at first. Stewart wasn’t surprised at that – according to her, she was amazed and shocked when she watched her character engaged in the love-play.
Recounting her experience to the UK edition of Glamour, the 21-year-old star told there are two major sex scenes in the two parts of the final series, and they were done early during the shooting. She called the filming “weird” because it felt like something completely different, not belonging with the Twilight, as if Bella started acting strange, in a “very surreal” fashion.
Stewart’s real-life romancing draws nearly as much attention, especially when it involves her Twilight partner, Robert Pattinson – a liaison, Glamour reminds, that has been neither confirmed nor denied yet but is quite likely.
Her love affair is not the kind of interest that Stewart is happy to feed, but she says she can understand that people are curious about that. People are wont to speculate, and one can’t get round it, but the actress is not going to let out personal information. Once you do that, she says, “your life becomes a product, and I’m repelled by that.” Actually, she is inclined to find it amusing, and that goes for the rumors linking her with Pattinson.
Stewart started working on the Twilight saga when she was 17, and it took her all that time to get accustomed to giving interviews – though she feels sure that tension and nervousness still surface now and then. Recalling her past days, she says she was overdoing it in an attempt to come out natural because the experience was totally new to her and she was unable to come to terms with it. Not like with her fans’ devotion, though – it’s something she has related to from the start.
On the other hand, being overemotional when you get disentangled from your restraints can be embarrassing, muses the vampire’s lover as she remembers her acquaintance with musician Jenny Lewis.

Who’s Eva Longoria Really Dating.

Eva Longoria doesn’t like to be publicly speculated about – more so if the speculations go wide off the mark, like those promulgated by the New York Post’s Page Six.

Eva Longoria is not dating Matt Barnes
Sunday’s issue of the paper contained a hint that the actress (fresh after a divorce from her second husband, San Antonio Spurs’ Tony Parker, in January this year) was going soft on Matt Barnes, L.A. Lakers forward, 31. They shared a dinner in New York on Thursday, and – according to the paper – Longoria looked like she was flirting away with “a spark”.
The feature did quote the Desperate Housewives star’s rep’s statement that it was a friendly meeting devoid of any romantic interest, yet the 36-year-old actress felt pained enough to slam back.
Answering on her WhoSay page, she made a point of saying that she is not dating Matt Barnes – the two got together to discuss their appearance at a charity event for Padres and Athletes vs Cancer.
She also harked back to Jessica Simpson’s pregnancy rumors to accentuate that the press often gets things wrong!
Moreover, Longoria is currently in relationship with Penelope Cruz’s brother Eduardo Cruz, a singer, with whom the actress has been cozy since February when they spent some time on a yacht off Miami.

Heidi Klum’s Halloween 2011 Costume

Heidi Klum is not ashamed to take off everything for Halloween – including her skin!



The Project Runway host is a recognized Halloween fan, and she takes her festive appearances seriously… Maybe too seriously this time. She had expected that she would attend a lot of Halloween parties this year, and had a pretty gory idea for her 13th, an eponymous one that was thrown in Las Vegas on Saturday at Tao at The Venetian.
Intending to scare like there’s no tomorrow, the 38-year-old supermodel appeared on the red carpet unrecognizable as a skinless torso complete with blood-hued contact lenses, yellowish prosthetic fangs and a bald head cap.
Having stepped onto the carpet (in platform heels) in the company of two doctors in bloodstained overalls, Klum made to topple and pass out on a handy gurney.
After her dramatic entrance the supermodel shared with reporters that she had been cherishing the skinless appearance idea ever since July. She secured the assistance of Martin Izquierdo, one of the designers for Victoria’s Secret shows. He provided the design and painted out the costume himself.

Us Weekly relates the story of the suit that started out as a tight-fitting white affair and required accurate hand-painting. The supermodel said that Izquierdo actually painted the muscles and tendons from anatomical photos of a human body.
At least donning the gory thing on wasn’t difficult – the bodysuit came with a zipper on the back. Yet there was the final stage of preparation that took a considerably longer time. Klum had makeup artists working on her face and body for something like three hours and a half. But Seal’s wife thought it was worth it and not so troublesome after all. “I’ve been body-painted for 12 hours, so three-and-a-half hours is not that bad,” the supermodel commented.
Klum and Seal’s four children – who love the holiday as much as their mother does and are ready to sport their getups – were precluded from the overboard sight of their mother with her skin off.
Monday’s party at the PH-D at the Dream Downtown in New York will see Klum in yet another costume.
