Simply Fab: Christian Louboutin on Oprah

FabSugar — Mon, 14 Jan 2008 08:00:22 -0800

As of January 18, Oprah's got a red sole. Christian Louboutin is set to be a guest for the first time ever as part of the show's "Face Behind a Name" segment, airing at 4 pm and 1 am EST.

The episode will also play a featurette of Christian in Paris. I can't think of anything more Fab than watching Oprah pick the brain of the man who created shoes like these Christian Louboutin Joli Noeud Dorcet 957 Sandals ($665).

Who Wore It Better? Gucci During Awards Season

FabSugar — Mon, 02 Apr 2007 07:14:44 -0700

Surprisingly, Gucci's Spring collection has been all over the red & orange carpet this awards season. I would think more peeps would shy away from the graphic and exotic print red and purple collection; I'm happy to see some risk takers! First we saw it on Oprah at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party - though it seemed a bit busy for Oscars festivities. Then on Saturday we had back-to-back Gucci with Rihanna in a punchy mini dress & awesome purple eye shadow and Jessica Alba dressed it down with some wide legged jeans and bedroom eyes. Who do you think wore Gucci better this awards season?

Oprah, Anna Wintour, and Patrick Robinson to Host Costume Institute's American Woman Exhibit

FabSugar — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 19:04:46 -0700

Let's see, this year we explored models as muses, the year before we dodged superheroes. 2010's Costume Institute will be all about American Woman: Fashioning a National Identity. “The story of the American woman is really a story of the power of fashion to shape and define identity,” said Andrew Bolton, curator of the Costume Institute. The exhibit will examine our country's fashion between 1890 and 1940 with articles transferred over from the Brooklyn Museum Costume Collection. To go with the all-American theme, Oprah, Anna Wintour, and Gap's Patrick Robinson will act as co-chairs for the event. While we patiently wait for next year's red carpet, play our awesome Met Costume Institute Gala Faceoff and win cash prizes!

Fab Flash: Move Over Martha and Oprah, Make Room for Tyra

FabSugar — Wed, 28 May 2008 10:00:22 -0700

Oh, Tyra. Who knew she would go from model and fresh-faced actress on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air to being the next Martha or Oprah - to being a super brand. Tyra has become a household name, and she's got the upcoming cover of The New York Times Magazine to prove it.

This Sunday, our favorite model mentor will grace the cover of the Sunday weekly with an article about how she is striving to become the next female powerhouse. As the NY Times puts it, "Like her hero, Martha Stewart, Banks wants, most of all, for her name to immediately suggest a distinct point of view. Her brand, like her trademark 'tough but still smiling' smile, is consistent in all her shows: serious about the frivolous; empathetic and empowering, and always, always aimed at young women, across all races. It's girly TV with a punch." We all love her dramatic antics on America's Next Top Model, and she's got the looks and bravada to captivate an audience, so I buy it. Do you?

A Few Fab Words With Sex and the City's Sarah Jessica Parker

FabSugar — Fri, 30 May 2008 11:00:22 -0700

They say, save the best for last. Sorry to keep you waiting, but it will all be worth it once you hear what SJP had to say about the Sex and the City movie wardrobe. From the very beginning, Carrie was the fashion maverick, the one who dared to wear anything and everything. Her style rebellion paid off in the end because the name Carrie Bradshaw will forever be uttered by the mouths of millions. Oh, how I will miss seeing her innovative outfits. Sniff.

Don't forget to catch up on what the rest of the cast had to say about SATC's fashion.

Did you get to keep everything from the movie?

Everything that wasn’t borrowed. It's archived, and I had done that over the course of the series, which had really been beneficial actually, because when we had to go back in and shoot, and shoot that montage of all that stuff it was really great to have Carrie's closet available for that moving out stuff. There was a time that the montage included all of the women in my clothes dancing around and they really did put on my character’s outfits from those times. And I had actually archived a lot of the furniture, so it was kind of nice to have, as ludicrous as it may sound.

What are you wearing today, head to toe?

Hair is my own; dress is Lanvin; belt is my own, old Yves Saint Laurent; necklace, earrings Fred Leighton; shoes are Proenza Schouler; and some vintage bracelets from the thrift store.

To hear more from SJP and to see on-screen photos, read more.

Favorite outfit from the movie?

Can’t pick one, won’t. I love that belt though. Favorite child?

Did Carrie’s fashion change or evolve? Any input on the role of fashion in the movie?

It changed just the way we all change as we get older. Most of these women in the movie now really are not on the market, so they just dress differently. You get older and you just feel differently about it, I do. I see the connective tissue between then and now. It is more mature. It still demonstrates a love affair for fashion. I was part of the conversation to the degree that I started begging Pat to come back in May, and then in June and then July, because she was booked on all of these other shows. But that didn’t stop me; we started talking about wedding dresses in June because we knew how complicated that would be. I am part of the conversation but she is great storyteller with clothes. We call her the wizard because you end up trying anything on for her, even the most ridiculous and insane thing, and generally it is two in the morning and you are just so beaten down by then. But she is just great, she is amazing and we really couldn’t have done it without her.

Where do you find your confidence?

I don’t really have much. I think anything that is associated with this movie, this show I just feel I have unique and very special relationship with it. I was trying to explain earlier today that it's kind of like I would rather be cold and look good, I would rather wear heels and run down the block for fourteen hours and in six months see it on the screen and think yeah, it should have been heels running down the street running after that cab. Or, rather put, if I’m taken away from my child and I’m making this choice, I would rather put every ounce of myself into something; I can sleep June 12th. Michael and I, I think it is one of the many reasons I love him and we work so well together, is that we don‘t want to waste anyone’s time. A lot of people have put their faith and their time and their talent and their money in our hands, and that is every reason to work. Michael is always like, I will pull you bleeding across that finish line. And I’m like, I’m going to be in full stride buddy. You have to be a thoroughbred about it if you care.

Was the jewelry your own on Oprah?

The jewelry on Oprah were from VBH and Fred Leighton. And the dress was Mr. [Oscar] del la Renta. I had to give it back to him.
