Miranda Kerr Makes Vogue Australia History

In the January 2011 edition of Vogue Australia, Miranda Kerr will become the first pregnant woman to grace the cover. Looking divine in a full-length gown, Kerr is positively glowing. Kerr said of the shoot, “It’s wonderful that I have this opportunity to do this photo shoot with Australian Vogue and record this wonderful moment in time”. The photo was taken in LA when Kerr was 6 ½ months pregnant. 

Emma Watson to design for Alberta Ferretti

Love Emma Watson? Adore Alberta Ferretti? Emma Watson has already designed capsule collections for People Tree and the uber stylish starlet is set to further her design talent with Alberta Ferretti. It has been announced that Watson will create an organic clothing range for Alberta Ferretti. 

Watson has said of the collaboration, “We’re doing an organic clothing range. I can’t reveal the name yet but there will be more information about it soon”.  And of the inspiration, “Very classic, 60s Jane Birkin”… I cannot wait to see the results!  

Meanwhile, Watson has made a stylish appearance in a Burberry spiked trench coat from the Spring / Summer 2011 collection (pictured right)

Glitter, Glamour & Gorgeous Girls in Thursday’s Espresso Shot of News…

There were angels in New York City last night… the Victoria’s Secret Angels that is!

The dazzling Victoria’s Secret Show was held last night and featured the stunning models; Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Adriana Lima, Jessica Stam, Lily Donaldson, Chanel Imam and many more. And as is to be expected the lingerie and ladies were both divine!  

Katy Perry opened the show with a performance, wearing a creation by designer Todd Thomas (as pictured above). Adriana Lima was the first model to walk the glittery catwalk. Lima also modelled the $2 million Fantasy Diamond Bra (which she debuted in New York last month). The Fantasy Bra was designed in collaboration with Italian jeweller Damiani and contained more than 3,000 jewels. Click here to read more about the Victoria’s Secret Fantasty Bra… 

However, there were three notable absences from the show. Pregnant angels, Miranda Kerr and Doutzen Kroes were understandably elsewhere engaged. Heidi Klum was also absent. Klum is no longer affiliated with the Victoria’s Secret label after 13years :(  

Some stunning looks from the Victoria’s Secret Show… xx

Saturday… the perfect day for some Fashion News (especially when it envolves Kate Moss)…

Miranda Kerr Goes Nude

Miranda Kerr has bared all for a new Photography book V2. Taken by the renowned photographer Russell James, V2 represents the “young goddesses of today”. Kerr’s series of photos are sensational and feature her frolicking on the beach. Another model included in V2 is Brooklyn Decker.

Kate Moss For Isabel Marant

Kate Moss is the face of Isabel Marant’s Fall 2010 campaign. Moss is a perfect fit for the rock’ n’ roll styling, chic yet edgy French brand.

Marant’s Fall collection is a sexy, streamlined take on fifties finesse. Undeniably cool, think sexy skinny black Capri pants hidden under luxurious coats. There are rolled-hem leather pants, baseball-inspired jackets, faded denim jackets, sparkly tees and pointed mid-height bow pumps. 50’s inspired neckties also make an appearance.

Moss is photographed above in my favourite look from the Fall collection. For effortless, bohemian, French style… there is no other brand quite like it.

The Most Powerful Woman In Fashion

The First Lady, Michelle Obama, is now believed to be the most powerful person in fashion. This is the case as the economic value of the brands she chooses to wear have been boosted in total of up to $2.7billion. Jason Wu is one such designer who has been pushed into the spotlight. Wearing one of Wu’s designs to the inaugural ball in January 2009, the label is now stocked around the world and his New York Fashion Week show a must-see.

Best Dressed Straight From The Runway

This week celebrities embraced looks straight from the Catwalk. Blake Lively looked stunning in a Lanvin look from the Fall2010 collection. Michelle Williams chose one of my favourite pieces from Erdem’s Spring/Summer 2011 collection. Meanwhile, a glowing Claire Danes worked the ladylike look in a red Prada Fall2010 dress. And finally Freida Pinto worked a Marchesa Resort2011 embellished gown. Such gorgeous ladies and such spectacular gowns…xx
