FabSugar — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 15:00:22 -0700

Wedding dresses are getting a fashionable makeover thanks to Rodarte's Kate and Laura Mulleavy. The sisters are trying their hand at designing a bridal gown for filmmaker Miranda July. The avid Rodarte fan says her dress is inspired by previous Rodarte collections but not as graphically bold. Spidery, soft, whimsical Rodarte? Sounds Fab.

Stella McCartney to Design Scarlett's Wedding Dress?

FabSugarUK — Thu, 08 May 2008 03:00:10 -0700

Over the weekend Scarlett Johansson announced her engagement to Ryan Reynolds and then showed off her engagement ring at the Met Costume Gala on Monday. Now it seems the actress will not be short on wedding dress offers as Stella McCartney told People magazine, "I'm definitely doing her wedding dress. She doesn't know it yet."

However, Stella who also designed Madonna's wedding dress might have some competition on her hands as Dolce & Gabbana obviously already know and Marc Jacobs has offered his congratulations. "I'm really happy for her. She's a great girl. I just think Scarlett is great and I hope she is very, very happy. She's super funny. I love a smart, ballsy, New Yorker and that's what she is. I wish her the best."
I can't wait to see her dress!

Alexander McQueen to Design Kate Moss' Wedding Dress

PopSugar — Thu, 16 Nov 2006 09:10:34 -0800

Kate took some time out from her supermodel lifestyle to get a drink with her assistant at Lipp's Restaurant in Paris the other night. Even though most of you don't want Kate and Pete to get married, Kate is going full steam ahead with her wedding plans. She's apparently already asked Alexander McQueen to design her wedding dress. Here's more:

Moss...has been friends with McQueen for several years and he is said to be honored by her request.

An insider claims the catwalk queen has plans for a $38,000 white dress with black lace, which is "traditional but with a modern unique twist -- typical of both Kate and Alexander."

Another friend adds, "In a way, he was the obvious choice as they have been as thick as thieves for years. But he hadn't taken it for granted and was overjoyed to be asked.

"Kate is the ultimate model and this is easily going to be the wedding of the year."

It must have been a hard choice for her since she models so many famous designers clothes. However, If this couple want it to be the wedding of the year they should wait until 2007. I think Tom and Katie are already going for that win.

Desperate Housewives Rundown, "The God-Why-Don't-You-Love-Me Blues"

BuzzSugar — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 08:30:02 -0700

Secrets came to the surface on this week's Desperate Housewives, like Katherine's obsession with sneaking into Mike and Susan's house (cuckoo!), Julie's scandalous affair - and best of all, we learn more about the mysterious Bolen family, which has me totally intrigued.

Ready to break it all down? If you don't mind spoilers, then read more.

Gaby - Gaby catches a break this week. It all starts when her daughters discover Ana's stash of condoms. Gaby confronts Ana, and she admits to her aunt that she's in love with John. (Yeah, like we didn't see that one coming.) Gaby goes to John's restaurant to confront him about the matter, and he comes on to her - right when Ana walks in. I was pretty excited about the battle that was going to go down - will she blackmail Gaby? tell Carlos? - but after Gaby reveals her history with John to Ana, she surprisingly backs off and quits her job. I don't know if I believe that this storyline is 100% over, but looks like John doesn't have a reason to stick around Wisteria Lane. Gaby really seems like she's moved on for good.

Susan - She may have tried to attack Danny last week, but this time around, Julie gets the brunt of Susan's anger. Julie finally wakes up in the hospital (yay!), but on the downside, she comes back right as Susan learns that her daughter had an affair with a married man. In typical Susan behavior, she tries to pry for details - and even searches through Julie's journal to find out that the guy is called "D." - but Julie won't admit anything. We learn who the unknown "D." is soon enough. For that, keep reading.

Angie - Angie means well. She sees that her son Danny is having a hard time at school with making friends, so she bribes Porter to throw him a shindig, so Danny can feel included. At the party, Danny sees his dad flirting with some of his classmates (perv alert), and he confronts him by saying, "I know." His dad's response? "You know what?" But I thought the horrific look on his father's face totally gave it away, didn't you? "D." is Danny's dad, Dominic, as we later discover when he visits Julie at the hospital. Uh-oh. I'm curious to hear what exactly took place in the Bolens's past - especially after seeing those scars on Angie's back.

Bree - This week was a showdown between Bree and Katherine. Katherine starts off the episode by telling Bree that she's in love with Mike still. Seems that Katherine has been sneaking into Mike and Susan's home to find out their sleeping habits, and she's convinced that they're not having sex. Bree tells Katherine to seek help for her obsession, but when Katherine tries to destroy the bride's cake at one of their catered weddings (because it was the same one she designed for her nuptials to Mike), Bree actually fires her. I'm expecting a major Katherine freak out next week. Did you see the menacing look she has at the end of the episode? Bree better lock her windows.

Lynette - Once again, Lynette had one of the funniest subplots this week. Even though no one at work knows about her pregnancy, the signs are starting to show with Lynette's breasts. While Tom likes the results (he calls them "The Supremes!"), Lynette is panicked about how to hide them. Fortunately for her, Carlos thinks she got a boob job, so Lynette goes along with the fib. So much so, that when Carlos asks her to wear a low-cut dress for a client dinner, Lynette concedes. But my favorite part was her talk with Tom when he says "I need you to not be perfect, 'cause I'm not perfect." Sigh, I love those two.

What'd you think about the episode? Where do you think the Dominic and Julie storyline is headed? Do you think Jesse Metcalfe is getting the boot soon, or will his character John stick around?

Do You Agree With This Week's Winner and Loser on Project Runway?

BuzzSugar — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 09:45:27 -0700

This week's challenge on Project Runway put the contestants to the test of recycling a wedding dress from women who were divorced (by the way, did Tim Gunn repeatedly referring to the women as divorcees just seem so very . . . retro?). The designers had to recreate something wearable for the women from the fabric of the dress - meaning lots of polyester and acetate to work with, which I think made for a particularly difficult and creative challenge. Ultimately, the winner was someone who hasn't won a challenge yet, and the loser is someone who's frequently been on the bottom and, in my opinion, was just biding time on the runway. Oh, and on a geeky note, if you think you could have done better, watch out for next year's Project Runway Wii video game!

As for last night, do you agree with this week's winner and loser on Project Runway?

Anzevino and Florence Creates Walking on Air Wedding Dress

FabSugar — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 07:50:22 -0700

Wedding season on the Sugar network has wrapped, but that doesn't mean we can't still drool over a devastatingly beautiful wedding dress. Said gown is Anzevino and Florence's Walking on Air Wedding Dress ($1,000). It's (not surprisingly) sold out at Revolve, but brides-to-be, I would contact the designers to inquire directly. It has all the components of a traditional wedding frock - poufy, tiered, strapless, tulle - but comes together in an amazingly non-traditional and avant-garde way. If Carrie Bradshaw had a backup dress for her wedding to Big, this. Would. Be. It.

Très Bizarre: Robot Model Walks Japanese Fashion Show

TresSugar — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 07:00:00 -0700

Why force unrealistic standards on models when you can just get a robot to walk down the runway? That's what designer Yumi Katsura did, sending Miim the robot down the aisle in a wedding dress. You can see a picture of Miim here, but I imagine she's creepy-close to the spokes-bot in the commercial below. Spooky.

Project Runway's Rami Kashou Has a Home at HSN

FabSugar — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 05:50:00 -0700

Project Runway's Rami Kashou took his designs to the web a while ago, but now you can also find them on HSN. While his strapless jumpsuit is questionable, this Rami Kashou for Curations One-Shoulder Jersey Dress ($165), which comes in a bevy of colors, has potential. The asymmetrical neckline, the dropped waist, and the slit in the sleeve make it special. And Donna Karan would definitely approve of the drape front. Why not wear it to an upcoming wedding? Have fun!
