Staring in Jonah Hex, a new action Western film, is Megan Fox and her 18-inch waist. Naturally, all gun-wielding prostitutes need to have a tiny midsection, right?

But in the action scenes, we loosened it up, because everyone was afraid I Read more
Singer Christina Milian is on the prowl as she arrives at a restaurant on Sunset Strip in LA. Most people don't wear a corset top and leopard pencil skirt to dinner, but since the Strip is very happening and trendy, it makes sense.

The leading ladies of Glee — Lea Michele, Jenna Ushkowitz, Jayma Mays, Naya Rivera, and Heather Morris — all stepped out last night for an episode screening at the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. While their characters have unique style personas (cheerleader uniforms, schoolgirl separates, and rocker-chick wares) onscreen, it's also fun to see how these actresses dress for the red Read more
In the midst of post-World War I prosperity, the Roaring '20s were all about new technologies, jazz music, speakeasies, and a flippant attitude.

Weddings were much more informal than in earlier eras — gone were the corsets, tossed aside in favor of drop-waist dresses that showed a bit of Read more
Alice Eve takes on the role of Edgar Allen Poe's love interest, Emily Hamilton, in the chilling new thriller The Raven.
