Shalom Harlow in Marchesa at 2011 Met Gala

Shalom Harlow looked like a majestic beauty tonight in a nude and black gown by Marchesa. We love how the semisheer textile emotes a sexy, not scanty vibe, and the black embroidery injects a cool modern touch to the overall throwback look. A black beaded clutch, side-swept curls, and vintage-inspired hairpin finish off her flourish. Do tell, are you on team Shalom? Vote on all of our Met Gala Read more

Nars Celebrates 15 Years With a Book Launch

When couples celebrate their 15-year anniversary, the traditional gift they might give their mate is crystal. But when François Nars celebrates his company's 15th anniversary, he makes a book, with all proceeds going straight to charities. And as you might expect, it's not your ordinary coffee-table publication. To commemorate the company's quindecennial anniversary, Nars plans to release 15x15 Read more

The Met's Costume Institute Gala: Shalom Harlow

Model Shalom Harlow is one of the most avant-garde attendees tonight. She's wearing head-to-toe black, but not all black in the classic sense. I peep extreme bubbles, ruching, and volume. What do you make of it? Vote on all of my Costume Institute Gala polls here! Source The Met's Costume Institute Gala: Shalom Harlow Love it Hate it Read more

Fab Ad: H&M Spring '09

Shalom Harlow, Eva Herzigova, Vincent Gallo — could there be a cooler trio? I think not. For H&M's Spring '09 ad campaign, the three beauties got together, laughed a lot, had a blast. And the cameras were there to capture it. At first I thought the red geometric props were distracting, but upon closer inspection, they add fun to the photos. I especially love the contrast between the red and Read more

Paris Fashion Week, Spring '09: Viktor & Rolf


Updated 10/05/08 4:26 PM · Posted by FabSugar · 4 comments

Watching Viktor & Rolf's virtual fashion show makes me wonder why more designers don't go this route. I smell a new trend. Old-school model Shalom Harlow is the only one on catwalk. Or, shall I say, only ones. It's all good though; it makes me focus more on the clothes and less on the models. Wait until you see how up close and personal the camera takes you. It's better than being in the Read more

Fab Ad: Tiffany & Co. Fall '08

Tiffany & Co. is trying out a new look this season with a sweet new campaign. The ads, shot by Michael Thompson, feature models Liya Kebede, Shalom Harlow, Lily Cole, and Sasha Pivovarova. All different, all beautiful. I like how Liya emits a commanding, graceful presence in her fancy tulle dress and dazzling diamonds.While Shalom rocks it '50s-style in a black fedora and mixed metals, Lily Read more

Fab Ad: Valentino Spring/Summer '08

Times they are a-changin'. Judging from Valentino's Spring/Summer '08 ads, it seems there's no longer a need for pretty-faced models to show off luxurious designer items. Even though it's Amber Valetta, Anja Rubik, Raquel Zimmermann, and Shalom Harlow hiding behind those drop-dead bags, it might as well have been any other model with a slim bod; Valentino could have even saved himself a buck or Read more
