2010 Spring Paris Fashion Week Fab Roundup!

FabSugar — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 15:00:22 -0700

Paris Fashion Week is the creme de la creme of all fashion events. New York had its highlights; London wowed me with its revived schedule; and Milan is always beautiful, but Paris? Undeniably thrilling. Here's a roundup of my favorite looks, ranging from the spooky, kooky looks of Gareth Pugh to breathtaking frocks from Yves Saint Laurent. Peep McQueen's ethereal alien-like ensemble here. Keep on to see magical delights from Hermes, Valentino, Vivienne Westwood, Lanvin, and more.

Carla Bruni-Sarkozy Goes Antianimal, Hermes Goes Pro

FabSugar — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 11:00:22 -0700

Carla Bruni-Sarkozy has the pick of the litter when it comes to wearing sumptuous designer creations but her selection might be a little more limited now that she's vowed to be more animal friendly. "I do not wear, buy, or own fur or animal skin other than leather or skin of animals raised for feeding purposes. I am not a vegetarian and I don't find it illogical to wear skins of animals whose meat is also eaten." said Bruni-Sarkozy in a recent letter to PETA. Will Carla inspire others to do the same?

Meanwhile, Hermes has just announced it will start breeding its own crocodiles to keep up with the high demand for its iconic handbags. Despite the recession, Hermes produces 3,000 crocodile bags a year, which is not enough for the crazy waiting list - often several years long - of customers. "We cannot face demand. We have massive overdemand. The world is not full of crocodiles." said Hermes chief executive, Patrick Thomas.

Certainly two different views on using animals for fashion. Are you on team Carla or team Hermes?

Chloë Sevigny Dreams of Collaborating With Hermès and NaNa

FabSugar — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 06:00:08 -0700

UPDATE: Chloë has teamed up with Opening Ceremony to create a footwear collection with Bass Weejuns, a brand she used to sport back in the day.

Chloë Sevigny has a serious shoe addiction. "I have hundreds of pairs. I keep them in a stairwell in clear plastic boxes, labeled," she dished in a recent interview. Aside from her Opening Ceremony footwear collection, the actress is open to more collaborations. What would her dream footwear collaboration be? "Hermès, maybe?" she said jokingly, then followed up with: "Actually, NaNa would be a great collaboration!" Currently, Chloë's favorite shoes are a pair of NaNa cowboy boots she purchased from a flea market in Austin, TX, and she also owns a pair of combat boots from the label. If your feet are not familiar with NaNa, it's never too late to get them acquainted. Let's hope Chloë's dream comes true . . .

Celebrity Style: Victoria Beckham

FabSugar — Mon, 11 May 2009 12:00:22 -0700

Victoria Beckham dresses up no matter where she goes and that includes airports. She arrived in Milan looking posh in a LBD from her Fall namesake collection, Christian Louboutin suede boots, and her signature Hermes Birkin. We've seen Victoria in all-black before, but what makes her unique this time is the combination of the black sequined headband and studded belt. A bit rock 'n roll, a bit dainty equals a whole lot of sass.

FabSugar — Mon, 26 Jan 2009 11:00:51 -0800

Move over Current/Elliott, there's a new denim star in town. Nicky Hilton wore the same torn Jet jeans that Nicole Richie has. LA weather is starting to cool down, so Nicky kept cozy via a slick beanie and black suede boots. Her black and white plaid blouse adds downtown cool, while her black Birkin reels in uptown chic. Nicky's always about contradictions; love it.

Celebrity Style: Victoria Beckham

FabSugar — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 12:00:22 -0800

The first thing I thought when I saw Victoria Beckham leaving London's Heathrow Airport is, I wonder if she's wearing anything underneath that extraordinary coat. Hot! The singer jet set to LA in a gray coat with gold buttons, a cool fedora, and of course, her Hermes bag. I admire that in the battle between comfort and sophistication, the latter always wins for Victoria. If you can't pull this look off on a plane, a swanky party is also a good venue.

Fab Ad: Hermes Fall '08

FabSugar — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 03:00:22 -0700

Who ever said models were dainty? Not me. They get to wear coveted clothes and attend fabulous parties, but what about posing mid-air on a ladder, or in this case, lugging around an ox in the frigid snowy mountains? Leave it to Hermes to create yet another masterpiece with its Fall ad campaign.

The trooper is Mariacarla Boscono, whom you may recognize from Pucci's psychedelic Fall campaign. This time around, the beautiful donna is looking wintry lovely in Hermes's mosaic-print skirt, fur-lined coat, and sumptuous suede boots. The ox, of course, is adorned with Hermes elements as well. The snowy alps is a perfect backdrop to these colorful offerings. First came the elephants, now oxen, I can't wait to see what's next!
