FabSugar — Tue, 17 Jul 2007 10:50:22 -0700

Victoria always looks put together, so why would it be any different when she accompanied hubby David during the meeting of his new team, The Galaxy? She wore the pink version of this Roland Mouret Moon Dress, $2,150, which is now available for pre-order. She looks more like she's heading to a luncheon than to a soccer field, but hey, she's Posh and she works it!

Fab Flash: Victoria Beckham and Roland Mouret in Cahoots

FabSugar — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 12:00:22 -0800

It's safe to say Victoria Beckham's dress collection is a hit. In fact, her collection has already sold out in London. But, did you know that designer Roland Mouret had a hand in her sensational success? According to sources, a spokesperson for Beckham disclosed that Mouret assisted her through the whole experience - just how much is to be debated.

"Roland set Victoria up with his pattern cutter and also introduced her to his fabric suppliers," said a Beckham spokesperson. "There is no secret Roland has helped Victoria set up various aspects of her atelier in London."

An insider states: "It's been a bit of a joke as to how much Roland has been involved. The similarities between the dresses are undeniable." Meanwhile, Beckham's representatives insist that Mouret "had absolutely nothing to do with the creative process." There is a slight resemblance between Beckham's designs and Mouret's, but enough to differentiate the two. What do you think?

Who Wore It Better? Roland Mouret Primrose Yellow Dress

FabSugar — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 12:00:22 -0700

This isn't the first time Victoria Beckham battles it out with another star in her Roland Mouret primrose yellow dress. First she went head to head with Lucy Liu (and lost) and now she has to compete with Sandra Oh. While Posh wore her dress with oversized sunnies and black pointy pumps, Sandra opted for a cuff bracelet, strappy shoes, and a gray clutch. Plus, Sandra's is slightly longer. They both have the same one-hand-on-hip stance going on but whose yellow Roland Mouret confection takes the cake?

Who Wore It Better? Roland Mouret Primrose Yellow Dress

FabSugar — Tue, 22 Jul 2008 05:00:22 -0700

They call it mellow yellow. Victoria Beckham went mellow when she wore Roland Mouret's Kieber dress in primrose yellow dress recently. Lucy Liu attended a 2008 Summer TCA Tour press conference in Mouret's Montparnasse dress in the same color. Posh opted for a '60s-inspired look, chignon and all, while Lucy went more modern with turquoise earrings and patent nude Yves Saint Laurent sandals. Which lady would you say pulls off pale yellow flawlessly?

Who Wore It Better? Roland Mouret White Square-Neck Dress

FabSugar — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 03:00:08 -0700

Two white-hot ladies, but only one can win. Heidi Klum wore this white Roland Mouret number at an event in June, while Jennifer Lopez just wore it at Marc Jacobs's fashion show. Heidi's interpretation is sharp as a knife thanks to her black satin Louboutins. The model decided to keep her jewelry to a minimum, so as to let the dress and shoes take center stage. The bling-loving Jennifer opted for huge drop earrings, black patent platforms, and a black shoulder bag. Both ladies rock the white, but who do you think wore it better?

Fab Flash: Simon Fuller Buys Storm

FabSugarUK — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 03:00:05 -0700

Rumours have been circulating for several weeks about Kate Moss's role in Simon Cowell's latest entertainment venture. This weekend the story gained a new twist as media mogul Simon Fuller (perhaps most famous for being behind the Spice Girls) bought a sizable chunk of Storm Models. His company, 19 management reportedly gained a 51% stake in the agency which is behind some of fashion's most famous faces including Kate Moss, Jourdan Dunn, Cindy Crawford and Carla Bruni.

This isn't Simon's first dealing with the fashion world, of course, as two years ago he teamed up with Roland Mouret to launch 19RM and more recently launched the website Fashionair. He is also behind Victoria Beckham's dress collection which has become a big success over the past few seasons.

For further information about the business venture including Simon's plans for the futures, just read more.

The latest business move might come as a surprise to some as 19 Management is more strongly associated with the music industry launching shows like American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance and Pop Idol, but Draper's editor Jessica Brown explains how everything is so entwined.

"Links with music and celebrities have become so important in influencing the industry. What a celebrity wears has become as powerful as the catwalks, so it makes sense to take advantage of that and create a lifestyle company. Simon Cowell and Philip Green may be joining forces in a similar way to combine music and fashion."

Simon explained to WWD what his latest venture might entail saying it will, "push the boundaries, blur the lines and redefine what a model agency should be in this fast moving world, where fashion is playing an increasingly important role in setting and reflecting cultures and tastes." Hopefully this will involve a greater insight in to the modeling agency for mere mortals like us, maybe a reality show – the mind literally boggles! What do you think of this latest venture for Mr. Fuller?

This Week's Fab Faves

Get ready because I've got an action-packed lineup for you this week. I was feasting on a particular asymmetrical white Roland Mouret dress, Rihanna's endless transformations, and Cate Blanchett in sexy vintage red Ossie Clark. There are some familiar faces and some newbies who are simply stunning. What a stylish surprise it was to see Gwyneth in this radical metallic cutout Preen. I remember it from the Fall runway like it was yesterday. Thanks for bringing me back to that happy place G . . .

Trend Alert: The TTD

FabSugar — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 05:50:22 -0700

My daily routine of perusing Net-A-Porter led me to something so simplistically new: the TTD, also known as the top tunic dress. However, I must give credit to Roland Mouret for this genius idea. The TTD is pretty much three pieces in one: a top when tucked into pants, a tunic paired with leggings, and a dress - rad. When shopping for TTDs, make sure to look for sleek shapes and solid colors for maximum versatility and always accessorize with tough elements. Three in one? It doesn't get better than that, folks.

Compare & Contrast: Heidi Klum, Oscar's Lady in Red

FabSugar — Mon, 23 Feb 2009 14:00:22 -0800

Last night, as I was covering the 2009 Oscars red carpet, I got déjà vu. Out walked Heidi Klum in her red Roland Mouret number - and blam - flashback to her Oscars look last year. Of course, the silhouette of the dress was entirely different, but it exuded the same futuristic aura and was the same fiery red color. And, her jewels were pink again! Let's dissect Heidi's 2008 and 2009 Oscars looks shall we?

Dress: John Galliano made sure Heidi stood out on the '08 Oscars red carpet in this red, larger-than-life Dior gown. There is nothing shy about it - it's as red as red gets, has a huge collar, long side trains, and futuristic vibe. Oh, and Heidi chose red to benefit women's heart health.

Jewelry: It's apparent the Super loves the combination of red and pink. In 2008, her pink jewels from her own line complemented her red gown to a tee. She donned dramatic red and pink drop earrings, matching bracelets, and a red and pink ring.

Dress: Heidi went down the same red path this year by wearing a red dress in honor of her Diet Coke Heart Healthy campaign. Roland Mouret created this frock, which is not as voluminous, but just as in-your-face and futuristic. It also has a heavy sheen. Once again, the collar is the focus, but the skirt is equally attention-grabbing.

Jewelry: Red and pink it is again. Heidi chose to further sass up her red dress with light pink accessories. Like last year, the earrings were the focus, but stacked bangles and rings were also lavishly loud.
