FabSugarUK — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 01:50:55 -0800

There has been lots of exciting news recently about who will be featured in the upcoming Spring 2010 ad campaigns. Claudia Schiffer is the face of Chanel, Natalia Vodianova is working with YSL, Georgia May Jagger is the new Versace star and it has now been reported that Daisy Lowe is working with Louis Vuitton.

The British model will appear in a swimwear press kit being shot this weekend in Miami. The photos will also include shoes, bags and accessories from the line which will hit stores in April. I'm excited to see more of Daisy and I think her natural curves will be perfect for showcasing swimwear What do you think of this choice?

Who Wore It Better? Louis Vuitton Moody Floral Frock

FabSugar — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 10:00:22 -0700

I was thoroughly smitten by the way Leighton Meester worked her Louis Vuitton Resort moody floral frock at Paris Fashion Week. I loved how she topped it with a vest, a belt, and wore dressy socks with sandals. Aussie model Catherine McNeil must have loved it too because she wore the same dress to a party at the LV store in Melbourne. Instead of a vest, however, Catherine topped hers with a sharp black blazer, and and finished the look with peep-toe boots and a bright pink LV clutch. Both ladies look stylish in moody florals, but who wore it better?

The Scarf to Have: Louis Vuitton Bleu Nuit Leopard Stole

The brown-colored Louis Vuitton leopard stole used to be all the rage - here's Kelly Osbourne sporting it a year ago - but now it's all about the bleu nuit version ($715). Sienna Miller, Liv Tyler, and Rachel Bilson have already been spotted around town with it. The pink adds a tinge of girliness, while the blue and gray keep things subdued cool. Sienna wore hers with jeans and a beanie, Liv tied hers over a black romper, while Rachel sported hers with a gray cardigan and white tee. The price is steep, yes, but it's a scarf that will keep you cool (and warm) for a long time.

Are You Excited For the Return of the Kitten Heel?

Marc Jacobs had a lot of fun in Paris for the Louis Vuitton Spring show, where models strutted down the catwalk with Afro hair and oversize accessories. The show must have felt like a relief for some of the girls as fears of tripping over were lessened with kitten heel shoes! After many seasons of sky-high heels and several slipups, the tides are changing and smaller platforms are back en mode. Are you pleased for its return, or do you prefer to suffer for style?

Which Famous Beau Is the Hottest Model?

There's no doubt about it, Jesus Luz, Gabriel Aubry, and Andrés Velencoso, all have model-worthy looks. But being the boyfriends of the hottest celebs probably helped put them on Spring '10's most desirable menswear catwalks. Madonna's man Jesus walked for Dolce & Gabbana, Givenchy, and Y-3; Halle Berry's baby daddy Gabriel did his thing exclusively for Louis Vuitton; and Kylie Minogue's hottie Andrés worked it for Versace and Jean Paul Gaultier. All are scrumptious, but which famous beau is the hottest model?

Naomi Campbell might have had issues with anger management in the past, but she's putting all of that aside for charity. In support of The White Ribbon Alliance, a foundation dedicated to reducing maternal mortality, the Super Model collaborated with Louis Vuitton to sell this hunter green monogrammed Louis Vuitton bag ($2,800) - proceeds from sales will go to the foundation. People say fashion people don’t do anything. "We do a lot," said Campbell, who is the global ambassador for the foundation. The handbag will be available in March.

21 Hair and Makeup Looks You WON'T Be Wearing Come Spring

BellaSugar — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 04:00:01 -0700

From the runways onto department and drugstore shelves, I'm sure we'll see lots of fresh new makeup options and application techniques go full circle come March. Last month in New York, we saw six very wearable trends emerge, from peach lips to bold eyeliner to heavy-handed under-the-eye liners. But throughout the course of New York Fashion Week and other Spring 2010 shows, including Paris, London, and Milan, there were other looks that won't quite make the transition. Take this sequin forehead heart-shaped applique, for instance - straight from the Ungaro show in Paris, for which Lindsay Lohan acted as artistic adviser. While I appreciate each and every designer's artistic flair, some looks just won't translate to real life. See what I mean now.

On Our Radar: Naomi Campbell Collaborates With Louis Vuitton

FabSugarUK — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 01:30:28 -0700

Naomi Campbell is often finding ways to raise money for a good cause using her fashion credentials. She has previously organised the Fashion for Relief catwalk show, and a fundraiser in India and now she has revealed plans to collaborate with Louis Vuitton.

The supermodel has created a handbag for the design house to raise money for the White Ribbon Alliance. It's a classic square shaped canvas bag with strips of metallic leather. The bag is yet to have a name, but will begin retailing in March to coincide with International Women's Day for 1,900 euros (about £1,750).

She told WWD, "People say fashion people don’t do anything. We do a lot." She missed out on the Louis Vuitton Spring show earlier this week, but did add her stamp of approval. “I’m a big Angela Davis fan, although I’m not sure if that was the inspiration. I love an Afro. I’ve rocked an Afro many a time.”

Paris Fashion Week, Spring 2010: Louis Vuitton

FabSugarUK — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 02:15:54 -0700

There is always a lot of excitement surrounding Louis Vuitton shows and there were plenty of famous faces in the front row yesterday as Paris Fashion Week continued. Marc Jacobs had a lot of fun with this collection as giant afro wigs (made of five separate wigs sewn together) dominated the looks. They were teamed with fun oversized bags and clogs, moccasins and loafers. There was a streetwear vibe with '70s inspired funky prints and piled on separates. Jacobs explained his influence commenting that it was, "about travelers-the movement that came after punk. Then we were thinking about hiking, trekking, and then denim and parkas-city utilitarianism." The vast range of inspiration is apparent in the eclectic line with the main focus being youth.

For more images from the collection, just keep reading.
