For many the Cannes Film Festival is the only cinema awards ceremony worth its reputation. Taking place on the French Riviera each year, the only thing that matches the quality of films premiering at the event is the haute couture fashion that makes its way down the red carpet.

As the worlds media flashes light bulbs and screams out for attention, shouts of “give us a smile” and “We just need one more” fill the air. Starlets, heart throbs, filmmakers and international celebrities descend on the gala dressed to impress and this year was no exception.

Tristan Blair - What Else!

September 11th 2007 17:56
It's fair to say after trawling boutique after fabulous boutique in this beautiful city, there is noone aside from Massarro of course, who quite puts the same shine on a pair of shoes than Australian Designer Tristan Blair.

He is elusive, demure and completely humble about his creativity. I once attempted to help him source a shoe manufacturer in Brazil. He had become great friends with a man and his chicken in Bali and was loathe to change. Given my experiences in working with Brazilian timeframes I can understand why. Nothing quite happens fast enough in that country. Needless to say in a Summer that sports cotton candy and casual style you cant go past his new collection "Wonderful Armour

Nicky Hilton presents Nicholai at New York Fashion Week


A small shock to people like me who like to only dip their toes in celebrity knowledge, Nicky Hilton, the sister that seems to wear underwear and, you know, "do stuff", launched her new clothing line as part of New York Fashion Week overnight.

After visiting the Victoria and Albert exhibition which travelled to the National Gallery in Canberra a few years ago, I’ve been obsessed with Vivienne Westwood. It’s not just that she’s sixty and has a beautiful thirty-year-old Italian lover, although that does impress me, and it’s not just that she’s been an inspiration for generations of fashionistas, mostly it’s because for Westwood, fashion is thought

One of the most striking models of the contemporary brat pack is Jessica Stam, a statuesque Canadian who has the kind of natural physique required for catwalk shows.
