Diane Kruger

Joshua Jackson Once Cut Diane Kruger Out of Dior To Use the Bathroom

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista.

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista. Today, they're giving us a little behind-the-scenes tale of Diane Kruger and her Dior Couture.

For Diane Kruger, the drama at May’s Cannes Film Festival didn’t stop when the movies ended. The actress told People that she was faced with a rather unfortunate predicament when it came her voluminous vintage Dior Couture gown and, well, relieving herself:

“[The gown] had a huge bodice. It was so big that it took me an hour to get into it and the only way for me to go to the bathroom was to take off the bodice. Once I finished dinner, I had to go to the bathroom and it became so tight that I couldn’t breathe anymore.”

But fret not–despite the dire circumstances, it wasn’t Kruger’s time to go (though in other respects, it was!) Thankfully, her ridiculously good-looking, sharp-dressing, beloved by Karl Lagerfeld boyfriend Joshua Jackson also happens to be a wizard with the scissors.

Carine Roitfeld's CR Fashion Book Launches: Here's What's Inside

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista.

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista. Today, we're taking a closer look at Carine Roitfeld's CR Fashion Book.

After months and months of waiting, CR Fashion Book is finally here. Or at least the website is, anyway.

Crfashionbook.com launches today, and unsurprisingly, there is already a lot to love from the new site — most notably a foreword from Carine herself.

Roitfeld talks about the inspiration behind the first issue of the new magazine—which, characteristic of Roitfeld, didn't come from the latest runway trend, or pop culture craze or anything fashion-related at all. Instead, the first issue of CR takes its theme from something deeply personal to Carine: The birth of her grandchild.

From Miley's Bun to Angie's Leg: Favorite Celebrity Twitter Trademarks

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista.

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista. Today, we're taking a closer look at the best celeb-inspired Twitter memes.

As you've probably heard, Miley Cyrus incited an Internet meltdown by cutting her hair and posting photos of it on Twitter. The event obviously brought Miley a lot of attention (so much so that some are speculating it was a Britney-esque cry for help), but it also brought attention to hilarious Twitter account @Mileys_Bun, which surely has more followers postmortem than it did in life.

Of course, Miley's Bun was not the first Twitter to spoof a celebrity's appendage. With focuses from prominent body parts to signature clothing items, several such memes have been born on Twitter over the last couple of years. Who could forget Angie's Right Leg or Scott Disick's Cane? What? You didn't know about that last one? Well, there are a bunch, and they're pretty funny.

Sarah Jessica Parker

SJP to Play a Vogue Editor on Glee, Anna Wintour to Help With Costumes

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista.

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista. Today, we're finding out what Sarah Jessica Parker, Anna Wintour, and Glee have in common.
We must admit, we haven't tuned into Glee in a while. Lea Michele's character just started to wear on us (it's not you Jane Lynch!). But we might DVR the start of season four to see Sarah Jessica Parker in her role as the manager of Vogue.com. Especially since she'll be outfitted by Anna Wintour herself.

Last week Glee creator Ryan Murphy revealed that Sarah Jessica Parker would guest star in a few episodes of the next season of the (once) hit series. He told Access Hollywood that SJP's character would be "running Vogue.com" (apparently Chris Colfer's character will be working for her) and recently tweeted, "Guess who's helping us with Sarah Jessica Parker's costumes on Glee? The Amazing Anna Wintour!"

Sarah Jessica Parker is no stranger to playing a Voguette of course—as Carrie Bradshaw she was a contributing editor. (Also we love that she's working for the digital side, woot!) But if Glee seems slightly less-Vogue than Sex and the City, let us remind you that Wintour's daughter Bee Shaffer works for Murphy's production company. Way to work those family connections!

Louis Vuitton is this Season’s Cover War Champion With 88 Covers

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista.

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista. Today, they're giving us a look at how Louis Vuitton's Spring has swept this season's cover wars.

The past few weeks of scorching temperatures have better aquainted us with what it would feel like to live on the surface of the sun, and you know what that means, right? Fall is here!

Wait a minute…

Let us rephrase. July and August magazines are hitting newsstands, which means the spring/summer collections are on their way out, and fall/winter is on its way in. Such is the speed of fashion, and no one ever accused fashion of being logical. So, with the departure of spring frocks from their glossy pages, it’s time to crown a new magazine cover war winner!

Congratulations to Louis Vuitton, whose fresh, airy eyelets emerged victorious with an impressive 88 covers. The garments certainly produced a few memorable covers moments, from Lana Del Ray’s surprise March Vogue UK cover to seeing double with Kate Moss on the cover of Vogue Japan. Former winner Prada delivered 78 covers, while Dolce & Gabbana made a good showing with 71.

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista. Today, they're giving us a first look at Georgia May Jagger's Material Girl campaign.

The Jaggers are having a big week — Jade Jagger tied the knot this past weekend and today her half sister Georgia‘s latest ad campaign dropped.

We’re noticing a common thread among the past few campaign stars for Material Girl, Madonna and daughter Lourdes Leon’s juniors clothing line for Macy’s: they’re all daughters of famous musicians–something Lourdes can probably relate to. Jagger, offspring of Mick Jagger and Jerry Hall, follows Kelly Osbourne as the line’s newest face and now we have the full campaign.

Evolution of the Slash: A Retrospective of Models-Turned-Actresses

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista.

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista. Today, they're giving us the scoop on some of the most memorable model-turned-actresses.

Beauty and fame often go hand in hand, so it makes sense that models and actresses seem to be forever trading places.

Related: Is Kate Upton the First Social Media Supermodel?

The latest model to make the jump to acting is Erin Wasson, who we got a first look at in Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter today. And she’s following in the footsteps of some of acting’s biggest names, like Milla Jovovich and Cameron Diaz, who got their start as models. But while the model-turned-actress is certainly not a new breed, there seem to have been even more slashes emerging recently: Gemma Ward, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Brooklyn Decker, for instance, have all made the jump. And the new Mad Max movie (Mad Max: Fury Road) is cast almost entirely with models: former model Charlize Theron and more current ones Abbey Lee Kershaw and Huntington-Whitely are all set to star.

And while the model/actress transition is certainly not rare, it can be hard to pull off (see: Cindy Crawford in Fair Game).

Charlize Theron Wears a Gown Made of Dung Beetles in Snow White and the Huntsman

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista.

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista. Today, they're giving us the inside scoop on Charlize Theron's Snow White costumes.

Making clothes fashioned from animal skin is nothing new. But making clothes out of insect skin (the technical term would be exoskeletons)? That's not as common. So we were intrigued to learn that this couture turquoise chiffon gown created for Charlize Theron's evil Queen Ravena in Snow White and the Huntsman features ornate dung beetle detailing. You read that right: Dung beetles.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, costume designer Colleen Atwood was just trolling around Thailand searching for inspiration and "unique materials" when she came across mounds of the discarded iridescent shells at a flea market. Atwood, who won her last Oscar for her Alice in Wonderland costumes, told the Washington Post that it took 50 workers to sew literally thousands of beetle wings to the gown, which, in the end, only gets a few seconds of dimly-lit screen time.

See the Outlandish Crowns Mulberry, Lanvin, and More Designed for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista.

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista. Today, they're giving us a look at the crowns designed for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.

Queen Elizabeth has long been considered a woman of many hats–and she’ll soon be adding many more to her burgeoning collection of (mainly pastel) headwear.

In honor of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, Harrods has tapped thirty-one of the biggest names in fashion–including Mulberry, Valentino, and Lanvin–to design revamped versions of the St. Edward’s Crown, the fancy-pants topper Elizabeth wore during her coronation way back in 1953.

And while there’s maybe a little too much crushed velvet for our taste, there’s also at least one fuzzy Jamiroquoi hat (Cavalli), one tiny Corgi (Paul Smith), two life size snakes (Bulgari and Boucheron), and what appears to be a crown made entirely of that caviar nail polish (Mulberry).

All the designs will be on display at Harrods in London starting today–but if, like us, you’ll be on the wrong side of the pond for all the jubilation, here are fourteen of the new crowns via Vogue UK. Cheers, m’dears.

The Top 10 Prada Red-Carpet Looks From 1995 to Today

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista.

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista. Today, they're giving us a look at Prada's top 10 red-carpet moments.

With the Met exhibit just around the corner, we’re expecting to see a lot of celebrities in Prada. While it might be difficult to imagine some of those runway frocks on the red carpet (we don’t see dresses over pants as a go-to for celebrities), it doesn’t mean that the brand is without its fair share of red carpet moments through the years. Quite the opposite.

Prada is the seminal red carpet brand, in a way. The watershed moment in celebrity red carpet styling came in 1995 when Uma Thurman, styled by Barbara Tfank, wore a simple yet elegant lavendar gown to the Oscars (a.k.a. the dress that launched a thousand celebrity stylists’ careers). It was with this appearance that Prada became a household name overnight. The svelte actress was in a traceable gown from a brand to which people could aspire, instead of one provided by a film costumer or, heaven forbid, self-designed (we’re looking at you Demi Moore and Kim Basinger). It hit the high notes of 90s minimalism and became one of those capital “M” fashion Moments.
