An Evening Celebrating Hal Rebunstein’s 100 Unforgettable Dresses
Last night, Fashion School Daily had the pleasure of attending a spectacular event – the celebration of Hal Rubenstein’s new book, 100 Unforgettable Dresses. The soirée was hosted by Vanessa Getty and the Giorgio Armani store, where guests convened to toast the author and discuss the 100 Most Unforgettable Dresses. Well, maybe not all of them, but the author touched on quite a few.
Mrs. Getty began the discussion by asking the author what had inspired him to write this book – to which he had a surprising answer. Mr. Rubenstein had been approached by Rizzoli to create a book about 100 dresses, to which he replied, “No, that’s too boring.” But as the editor thought more about the book, he formed an idea that would allow him to write a book that was truly interesting, not just something that sits on your bookshelf and looks pretty. He explained, “I started out as a journalist, and that’s what I am at heart. I love fashion, but I love telling stories more.” It is this journalistic approach that makes the book so appealing, and sets it apart from its peers.Fashion News: Lady Gaga's new scent will not smell like blood. Each dress in the book has a captivating story behind it, beautifully narrated and full of anecdotes and clever quips that only a fashion insider would know.
When asked, “What makes an unforgettable dress?” Rubenstein’s reply was threefold: “The right dress, on the right woman, at the right time.” He gave the example of Jennifer Lopez’s pivotal moment from the 2000 Grammys, when she wore the green Versace dress. It had been worn before by Amber Valetta at the Spring 2000 show and again by Donatella Versace at the Met Ball, without causing a stir. Yet, on the evening of the Grammy’s, J. Lo hit the trifecta – it was the right dress, she was the right woman, and it was the right time. The dress catapulted J. Lo into the spotlight and she never looked back.
A dress, he explained, does not have a life of it’s own. “It comes to life on a woman,” and with the right match, it can make for an unforgettable moment. Princess Diana’s second appearance in the book illustrates this point perfectly – what Rubenstein calls her “Revenge Dress”. A newly divorced Diana planned to attend an event at the Serpentine Gallery in London, on the same evening that her ex-husband, Prince Charles, had decided to appear on national television to publicly acknowledge his affair with Camilla Parker-Bowles. Diana had planned on wearing a Valentino, but upon hearing of the Prince’s announcement, changed her mind. She pulled out of her closet a dress she’d had made three years prior, when she was still married to the Prince.

Sonakshi Sinha will change her image for ‘Son Of A Sardar’
The sharp gaze, the luscious figure, the low-waist ghaghra and a backless choli in Dabangg made Sonakshi Sinha an instant hit among the men, for obvious reasons, and women, coz she portrayed a real-life woman and not the wafer-thin model-turned-actors. We too loved her Indian sex appeal! But then she got stuck with that image like a broken record. Though off-screen every once in a while she dresses in those body-hugging dresses, it was not enough to wipe away her deeply-ingrained trad-gal image. Perhaps because that way she can get away without having to count her calories. But all that is finally going to change. Sonakshi will now have to worry what goes on her plate. And thank God – or rather, her director Ashwini Dheer and co-star Ajay Devgn of Son Of A Sardar for the big step.
Our well-placed informant has revealed to us that Ajay and Ashwini want her to ditch the boring and safe saris and salwar kameezes for sexy and haute dresses and tattered denims in the film.Discounted Blazers and Dresses at Charlotte Ronson. We are glad at last Sonakshi will go through some kind of transformation. Whether she will pull it off or not only time will tell, but the young lady desperately needs to do something to shock the generation that thrives on instant gratification. Just one word of caution, Sonakshi better not consult Vidya Balan’s stylists who dressed her in those hideous outfits for Kismat Konnection and Heyy Babyy!
"When we started, we had this intention to tell you your size ... (but) people's preferences play an enormous role. Some people want their clothing tight, and some want it loose," he explained. Now UPcload just provides details on the fit.Haldre of Fits.me agrees. "The fitting room looks at size from the perspective that 'it's a matter of a style', he said."It's surprising how many people choose a size that is not recommended by the size chart. Almost half would go for a size smaller, or even a couple sizes larger."
Looking ahead, Haldre envisions an online shopping world where people will "see how clothing will look on them -- with their face and other apparel they might be wearing."For instance, another company, Zugara, lets customers overlay garments on themselves using a webcam.Haldre predicted the convergence of various technologies would create a big shift in shopping, eventually leading to online making up 30 percent of apparel purchases.But Mulpuru was more skeptical."I don't know that we'll ever get to 30 percent, because ultimately it's a very personal decision," she said.

Fashion News: Lady Gaga's new scent will not smell like blood
Lady Gaga says her new perfume will be based in molecules from her own blood, but won't smell like itRemember reports earlier this year that the new perfume Lady Gaga has in development with Coty will smell like blood? It turns out the perfume, which is expected early next year, is based on molecules of her own blood, "so it's a sense of having me on your skin," she says now. "Actually the perfume smells like an expensive hooker."Lady Gaga says her new perfume will be based in molecules from her own blood, but won't smell like itRemember reports earlier this year that the new perfume Lady Gaga has in development with Coty will smell like blood?

Net-a-porter has begun selling replicas of the cowl-necked Alexander McQueen gown bridesmaid Pippa Middleton wore at the royal wedding of her sister Kate and Prince William back in April. It's available on the online retailer's British site for $3,100. It's not on the U.S. site at present, but I did find a street-length red dress in a similar style (for $1,680).It was inevitable: Many items from the Versace for H&M collection that went on sale last week are being hawked on eBay. But many aren't selling; prices are too high. Valentino and business partner Giancarlo Giammetti plan to launch the Valentino Garavani Virtual Museum on Dec. 5 (you can preview it now). It will include views of 300 dresses from more than 50 years of Valentino's career, including Jacqueline Kennedy's wedding gown.Sir Paul Smith has been named winner of the Outstanding Achievement in Fashion Design prize, Britain's highest fashion honor. It will be given as part of the British Fashion Awards later this month.
It's no surprise then that Minaj, whose personality is as colorful as KRELwear, has become a fan. The rapper's Miami-based stylist, Jessica Bosch, has decked out Minaj in KRELwear pieces for everything from fashion spreads and music videos, to her performance on Late Show With David Letterman. Alanis Morissette, Cameron Diaz, and Carmen Electra have also worn KRELwear.

Fashion trends for holiday party nights
Undecided about what to wear to holiday parties this season?For many women, there’s no need to look beyond the closet for the little black dress. The classic style, introduced decades ago by Coco Chanel, is among the hottest styles this season. With a few well-chosen accessories, the LBD can hold its own with the latest trends.“A sparkly shoe and a colorful clutch will make your little black dress pop,” said Emily Goodin, owner of Boutique Couture on Market Street. “But if your dress is the statement, keep the accessories simple — maybe an oversized cocktail ring and simple diamond stud earrings.”
Women looking to update their holiday wardrobes will find styles this year are all about glamour. Popular choices are vintage-inspired, fully sequined cocktail dresses and evening gowns in golds, deep greens, reds and charcoal gray, the top color of the season, according to Goodin.“People are dressing up again,” she said. “After a long bout of the tacky Christmas sweater, we’re trending back to cocktail and evening attire for holiday parties.”
Chattanoogan Barbara Rico, owner of Rico Monument Co., said she tries to add a few new items to her holiday attire each year.“I follow the trends to see if the latest styles are something I could or would wear,” she said. “I love some of the vintage-style dresses with the sequin jackets.”Laurie Shipley, of Chattanooga, a retirement plan specialist at Barnett & Co.,Oliver Tolentino dresses Gwendoline Ruais for Miss World. said she recently purchased a long evening gown and two cocktail dresses after looking over her existing holiday party attire and finding it “old and boring.”
“I’m tired of black [so] I went bold,” she said. My long gown is a jersey (stretch fabric) Christmas red that I can accessorize in a variety of ways. The short cocktail dresses [in royal blue and eggplant] are both chiffon overlays, which give a breezy, carefree, yet sophisticated look,” Shipley said.In keeping with another trend, Shipley’s new dresses have sequins and beading.“I guess I’ve had black for so long, and I do still have the traditional little black dress, but [I] wanted to be festive, have fun and wanted my holiday wardrobe to reflect that,” she said.Some of the season’s trendy dresses also have texture such as ruffles, feathers and fringe, Goodin said. One-shoulder silhouettes, straps and even long sleeves are other changes in formalwear.“We’re seeing all different lengths this year,” she said.
Whether the style is floor length, ankle length, tea, knee or mini, “choose what fits your body,” she said.For the finishing touches, choose shoes and accessories that complement the look, rather than compete with it.A simple dress, for example, could be amped up with embellished flats or glittery platforms, while a statement dress would need a nude shoe. Similar rules apply to handbags — perhaps a clutch in a bold color, such as royal blue, or a champagne purse with lace detail, to complete the ensemble.
