On Our Radar: Victoria Beckham to Show at New York Fashion Week
The rumour mill has been working over time for the Beckhams this week. Today, it has been implied that Victoria Beckham will show a collection at September's New York Fashion Week. Not content with ruling the denim and sunglasses world, it seems that Ms Beckham wants to get her fingers in another pie, dresses.
Backstage Beauty: Peter Som
While FabSugar attended the Peter Som fashion show last season, they were unable to make it on this trip—but that's okay. BellaSugar's got the goods on how to create the sexy, tousled hair from this season's Spring 2008 show.
The goal of lead hairstylist Eugene Souleiman was to have runway hair that looked fresh, young and natural, with a slight edge.
Backstage Beauty: VPL
Last week, our FabSugar team attended the VPL Spring 2008 Fashion Show. While the clothing was sheer and chic, and the makeup was pretty and plain, the hair was va va voom!
While most of us do whatever we can to fight the frizzies, hairstylist extraordinaire Neil Moodie, created a wild, crimped 'do that made those frizzies, kinda flattering.
The Look: Alice + Olivia in Wonderland
This week my girl FabSugar found herself at the Alice + Olivia Alice in Wonderland themed show. While the clothing is absolutely gorgeous — lots of bold patterns and frilly sleeves — and the hair wonderfully mod, I was really excited to discover that she was on Yum patrol and snapped lots of photos of the nosh and drinks.
An ornate yellow table and matching yellow chairs stood in the center of the room.
Love It or Hate It? Heatherette
Crazy club-kid duo Heatherette isn't known for being subtle, and its models' hairstyles were as over-the-top as you'd expect. I thought it was a lot of fun, and very young—it reminded me of the way my friends and I would play "hairdresser" as girls.
If you like the winged metallic eyeliner shown here on Chanel Iman (yes, that's her real name), you'll be excited to know that Heatherette will soon have its own makeup line, complete with the lovely Lydia Hearst as its campaign face!
New York Fashion Week Spring 2008, VPL: Love It or Hate It?
In honor of some of the polarizing looks showing at New York Fashion Week, I thought we would do a few fashion week editions of Love It or Hate It!
Take this Spring VPL ensemble, with its mustard, gray, and white color palette. It reminds me of an avant-garde ballet outfit, with its leotard-looking layered top and sheer lampshade-inspired skirt.
Small Talk with Ilan Hall
Last week our very own FabSugar had the opportunity to chat with Top Chef Season Two winner, Ilan Hall. They were both backstage at the Cynthia Rowley Spring 2008 show — Fab reporting on the looks, and Ilan feeding the masses. Luckily for us, they were both able to take a few minutes from their jobs and provide us with a fun interview.
New York Fashion Week, Spring 2008: Proenza Schouler
When Valentino recently bought a stake in Proenza Schouler, it allowed Jack and Lazaro to keep doing what they're doing, except with more pocket change to throw around. I was excited to see what they would do with the extra money: nicer fabrics? Killer shoes?
Love it or Hate It? White Winged Eyeliner at BCBG
On Wednesday afternoon, the highly anticipated BCBG Spring 2008 show took center stage in the Bryant Park tents. FabSugar seemed to be smitten by the clothing, but I'm not entirely sold on the makeup choice to match. Here are a couple of pictures of the pretty Jessica Stam from before and during the show.
New York Fashion Week, Spring 2008: Jeremy Laing
He's been on my radar for a while now, but since I finally got to see his work in person, it's confirmed: 27-year-old Toronto-based designer Jeremy Laing is definitely one to watch. These pictures, from his Spring collection, don't do them justice. Especially because a lot of the finer details are in the backs of his designs, which you can't see in my runway pictures.
