Dita von Teese at Fashion Week


Dita von Teese is currently in Australia for Sydney Fashion Week. Last night Dita did her burlesque performance with the aid of a mechanical 'lipstick', for MAC cosmetics...

Don't think I really need to say anything else on the matter...

(Tom says- 'Didn't she steal that routine from you Georgie, except instead of a giant lipstick it was a giant replica of Robbie Williams cock?'

First look at Olsen clothing line

At the Balenciaga party at Barneys, Friday night in New York, Ashley Olsen used the opportunity to test drive a piece from her forthcoming line, The Row. "Her cropped navy-and-forest-green plaid-printed jacket was a chic update on the carpetbagger look for which she and Mary Kate have become best-known."

Wow, was the person who wrote that quote looking at the same photo as me? I think there is something wrong with my eyes. I can't see a damn thing in that pic. It kind of looks like two identical heads floating above a sea of dark material, which come to think of it, seems to be their signature look. But that's besides the point, back to me! I'm going blind! And it's taken the Olsen's to make me finally realise it. My eyes have been a bit itchy over the last few days, but I just thought it was because of my flat-mate's cat. But looking at this photo it's clearly something much, much worse. Time to call my optometrist me thinks. And thanks Ashley Olsen, yet again, you are the bearer of bad news!

Hedi Slimane to Launch own line

We may soon be again saying "CAUSE ME PAIN HEDI SLIMANE" if recent reports are to be believed. Apparentley "Mr Slimane signed yesterday a preliminary contract with PPR, head of Gucci Group. Rumor has it he's in the midst of negotiating the details, but is possibly already developing his OWN brand..."

How excitement! I knew that after leaving Dior, that droopy face little twig wouldn't be out of the public eye for long. Can't wait to see what he comes up with. It's about time we got some young blood (besides models) on the scene.

Kate Moss arrives at Topshop




A crowd of thousands gathered as Kate Moss appeared in the window's of Topshop's Oxford st store, yesterday. Kate was on hand to launch her new line of clothing for the company. She apparentely sauntered out, and posed with mannequins in the window, as the crowd stirred into a frenzy trying to get a peak at the wee lass.

If that dress is any indication as to the quality of the range, I'm a bit under-whelmed. That thing looks like it comes from Britney Spears' 'popping-down-to-the-gas-station-to-buy-some-ciggies-and-Red-Bull' summer range. All Kate needs is a straw hat and a butterfly tattoo on her exposed mid-rif and she'd fit right in at Casa del Spears.
