Harry Potter Stars' Modeling Debut: Who's Hotter?

Tara Sharp — Wed, 31 Aug 2011 12:55:26 PDT

Wizardry and now modeling? Is there anything the hotties of Harry Potter can't do?

The latest Band of Outsiders ad campaign features Polaroid shots of Rupert Grint and Tom Felton - better known as Ron Weasley and Draco Malfoy - in their first modeling gig. The boys are super cute in the Wes-Anderson-esque snaps, donning shades and scarves while they mimic art poses, play cards, and drink sophisticated libations. All that's missing is our other favorite HP eye candy, Matthew Lewis!

Which wand-wielding actor looks the hottest in the photo shoot?

2011 Fall New York Fashion Week: Band of Outsiders

Chi Diem Chau — Sat, 12 Feb 2011 23:15:21 PST

Scott Sternberg went for the gusto this evening at his Fall 2011 Band of Outsiders runway show attended by a star-studded guest list which included Kirsten Dunst - the brand's new lookbook face - Grace Coddington, Kanye West, Kid Cudi, and Momofuku’s David Chang, who gifted everyone with lemon cookies so delicious, even Anna Wintour was spotted taking a bite. So what exactly was on tap? Models rappelled down from the ceiling in a dramatic fashion serving as the perfect opener to an exciting show and equally tantalizing collection.

Thick knit sweaters, cropped plaid pants, fur scarves, silk print gowns, and slouchy fur beanies all pointed toward a grungy glamorous ski-inspired feel, while sharper looks, like a thin-wale corduroy suit, injected just the right amount of polish. Our favorite, a striped wool blanket poncho paired with leather climbing booties, emoted the perfect sense of Winter cozy.

Trends: Plaid pants, fur scarves, flared trousers, semi-sheer gowns.
Colors: Grey, beige, blue, black.
Key Looks: Blanket wool poncho, corduroy suit.
Accessories: Leather climbing booties, fur beanies, pearls, pendants.
Who Would Wear It: Cool city hipsters, laid-back luxe types.

Girls Meet Boys in Band Of Outsiders's Beauty Look

BellaSugar — Sat, 12 Feb 2011 21:56:49 PST

A single look for a fashion show? Not for Band of Outsiders, where there were three beauty concepts: boy-boy, boy-girl and girl-girl. The boy-boys (who were actual dudes, we know this kind of gender-bender terminology gets confusing) donned their natural hair texture, the boy-girls wore long, side-parted side-braids, and the girl-girls boasted amped-up voluminous curls. Find out what this means after the jump.

Kirsten Dunst Frolics in Spring Pieces From Boy by Band of Outsiders

FabSugar — Tue, 08 Feb 2011 11:45:04 PST

Kirsten Dunst brought her quirky playfulness and girlish charm to the Spring Boy collection from Band of Outsiders. Most collection lookbooks or campaigns are shot months in advance; this one was shot last week at Huntington Botanical Gardens in Pasadena, CA. Boy's offbeat prepster clothes suit Kirsten perfectly; we particularly love the outfit she sports for teatime with an elephant. Intrigued? Do click on.

Sneak Peek! Gap Design Editions With Phillip Lim and More

FabSugar — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 02:00:22 PDT

The newest crop of Gap Design Editions are going to be in stores before we know it: April 15 is only a few weeks away! For this round, 3.1 Phillip Lim, Band of Outsiders, Michael Bastian, and Threeasfour all riffed on the classic white button-down ($78-$88), and Philip Crangi whipped up black and white resin cuffs ($45). I still wear the Rodarte Design Edition top I picked up last year; it's definitely not your typical white shirt. But I have to ask: Should the GAP be enlisting these designers to take on a different wardrobe staple? I would have loved to see what this group could do with a more affordable LBD. Nonetheless, for those who missed the Design Editions the first time around, get ready to pounce!
