The Chicest Looks From Sundance

Christina Perez — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 11:02:32 PST

>> Kate Bosworth, Emma Roberts, Kirsten Dunst, and Elizabeth Olsen were among those who descended on Park City for this year's Sundance Film Festival. Though the weather provided plenty of opportunities for bundled-up Winter looks, there were just as many dressier moments to be had as well: Emma wore a body-con floral Topshop dress to the Celeste and Jesse Forever dinner, while Kate - in town for the premiere of her new film Black Rock - was spotted on the red carpet in a crimson, beaded Antonio Berardi number. See those looks - plus others - here, in the slideshow.

Gap Tries To Go All Fashion-y and Stuff with Cecilia Dean, Julia Restoin-Roitfeld For Fall 2008

fashionologie — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 11:48:52 PDT

>> Almost exactly one year ago, Gap launched its Fall 2007 European campaign, featuring fashion figues like Pierre Hardy, Amanda Harlech, Coco Rocha and Elettra Rossellini Weidemann shot by Mikael Jansson. The ads must have been a success, because rather than going with the high-wattage stars stateside Gap campaigns usually feature, the black-and-white, fashion-figure concept has been lifted for the Fall 2008 American campaign.

Shots of a smiling Cecilia Dean, a pouting Julia Restoin-Roitfeld, and a coy Georgina Chapman are sprinkled among those of Clemence Poesy, Maryna Linchuk, actress Catalina Sandino Moreno, Chanel Iman, and Lily Donaldson (plus Liv Tyler, apparently star wattage couldn't be totally nixed). More shots are still to come — including those of Scott Schuman and Ryan McGinley.

Christina Perez — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 10:48:18 PDT

>>With the likes of Lily Donaldson, Arizona Muse, Poppy Delevingne, Leelee Sobieski, Karlie Kloss, and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld in attendance at last night's Chanel Tribeca Film Festival dinner, it's no surprise that this year's edition of the annual event would prove to be one of the chicest tickets in town. At iconic downtown restaurant The Odeon, guests of the event - including Liv Tyler and Harley Viera-Newton - dined on a classic French menu of steak frites, roast chicken, and profiteroles, while industry vets Waris Ahluwalia, Giovanna Battaglia, Amanda Brooks, and Alexa Chung mingled with screen stars Naomi Watts and Camilla Belle.

Rachel Zoe Earns Up to $10,000 Per Job, According to One Client

fashionologie — Wed, 09 Mar 2011 12:25:30 PST

>> Rachel Zoe was just named Hollywood's Most Powerful Stylist by The Hollywood Reporter - full list of the top 25 here - and she earns up to $10,000 per job, according to one commercial client.

But Zoe's first pregnancy is full-term, and she's slowing down, she says: “I have this visual of me and [her husband] Rodg living in this amazing house that’s not too big in the south of France, where we go for four months and just sit on the beach and make jewelry. Not to sell, just for fun and therapy. Like literally, take rocks and shells and glue them.”

That's not likely to happen, however: she's got her new Rachel Zoe Collection - “My next tier rollout with Li & Fung will definitely be jewelry,” she says. And although she's not looking to expand her client roster, which currently includes Anne Hathaway, Jennifer Garner, Cameron Diaz, Demi Moore, Liv Tyler, and Eva Mendes, she notes: “That’s not to say I wouldn’t take on new clients, if I was really excited about someone and if it was the right fit.” And The Rachel Zoe Project is due to return in the Fall.

New York Treated to a Karl Lagerfeld Appearance at Chanel's Soho Store Re-Opening Last Night

fashionologie — Fri, 10 Sep 2010 11:07:17 PDT

>> Baptiste Giabiconi was rumored to make his singing debut at the Chanel Soho store party in New York last night - Karl Lagerfeld is reportedly pushing him to be a pop star - but apparently he got cold feet. Instead, guests were treated to the redone store, cordoned off from the public by a LED display wall playing Chanel videos and brimming with editors (Sally Singer, Robbie Myers, Cecilia Dean, Amy Astley); models (Heidi Mount, Jessica Stam, Magdalena Frackowiak, Anja Rubik, Freja Beha Erichsen, Abbey Lee Kershaw, Erin Wasson, Shalom Harlow, Crystal Renn); and Chanel favorites like Poppy Delevigne, Caroline Sieber, Diane Kruger, Liv Tyler, Courtney Love, and Sarah Jessica Parker.

Alexa Chung, who was DJing the party, asked last night if she could buy the new Chanel Les Khakis nail polish (which came out today), but she was told she had to wait until this morning to pick it up. And before Lagerfeld arrived, publicists scraped graffiti stickers, posters, and fliers off the scaffolding by the red carpet. They even had box cutters to scrape off tape and remnants. But that wasn't the only prep done in anticipation of Lagerfeld's arrival: The Daily reports from sources working in the building that houses the Soho boutique that Lagerfeld also demanded his own private bathroom to use during the party, and thus, one was built.

Waiters stood by holding trays of Chanel-logoed spray paint cans which could be used to tag a LED wall near the store's entrance, and the gift bag held a silk scarf printed with a polar bear among camellias. Lagerfeld also took the opportunity to show off his new discovery, 19-year-old French singer Izia, who took the stage at the party (thus intimidating Giabiconi).

>> Kate Bosworth's Stylist Cher Coulter on Being Snubbed by Peter Pilotto -In a feature on stylists in Vogue UK's June 2010 issue, British stylist Cher Coulter, who went to Central Saint Martins and regularly works with Kate Bosworth, Sienna Miller, Liv Tyler, and Emily Mortimer, noted of her red carpet choices: "I like to support the British designers, I do. Like when we put Kate in that pink Preen dress it helped them, I mean, beyond with sales. But I get frustrated with some of them. Like with this dress I'd called in from Peter Pilotto. It didn't work on Kate, so I asked if I could use it on one of my other girls who was going to all the [Oscar] parties. They said no, that didn't work for them, and I felt like saying, get over it boys!" [TFS]

Trailer: The Rachel Zoe Project, Season 2

fashionologie — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 14:19:15 PDT

>> Rachel Zoe has never been known to be anything but busy: her new lifestyle newsletter, The Zoe Report, launches tomorrow, and she's still finishing up filming for the second season of The Rachel Zoe Project, which premieres Aug. 24 at 10 PM on Bravo.

The trailer for the upcoming season has just hit the web, full of her catchphrases, footage from Paris (only New York was highlighted last season), Rachel riding on a Segway, and featuring cameos by Diane von Furstenberg, Karl Lagerfeld, Giambattista Valli, Liv Tyler, and Lorenzo Martone.

And for those who've noticed Zoe's tendency to wear loose dresses and voluminous clothes on the red carpet, it's because when she tries to wear something more form-fitting - like a sequined flapper-style dress in the trailer - her husband and assistant both tell her she can't because of all the bad press about how thin she is.
