John Galliano to Launch Hat, Scarf Collection

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Fashion Shows, Hairstyles, News,

It’s about time! Fashion designer John Galliano is to launch a hat and scarf range, due to be unveiled in October.

For years, Galliano has worked with British milliner Stephen Jones for both his Christian Dior and eponymous labels; the upcoming line, no doubt, will pull inspiration from the much-heralded runway looks.

No word yet as to whether or not the line will include men’s hats, but I’d fancy seeing guys sport the tulle veils around town! Galliano himself showed up to his Christian Dior couture show sporting a look from his menswear range on Monday.

Hats have been trending lately, especially since

pop star Lady Gaga has been known to showcase Philip Treacy creations on the red carpet quite frequently (rumors even circulated at one point that she was to internship for the label).

Which Galliano head piece would you look most forward to seeing? The cellophane tulip creations, mod newspaper boy hats, or his trademark Mad Hatter tops?

Nicole Richie Makes Handbags From Hats

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,

Talk about creative—Nicole Richie turns hats into handbags.

The reality star - who is currently promoting her House of Harlow 1960 and Winter Kate Fall/Winter 2010 fashion ranges - says she often gets inspired by seeing what other people are wearing and then giving items her own unique twist.

“I was walking around the other day and I saw this woman wearing this great hat and I thought actually that’d make a really good bag so we turned it upside down and now it’s a great looking bag.”

Nicole - who has two children, Harlow, two, and nine-month-old Sparrow with fiance Joel Madden - also revealed she has had to alter her dress sense since becoming a mother to make it practical yet still stylish: “I’m a busy working mother. I’m all for what’s comfortable but I don’t think people today make enough effort with what they wear. At the same time I don’t want to have to get out of bed early to decide what to put on. My jackets are my favorite part of my collection because you can just throw one on over jeans and a vest and it looks like you’ve made an effort.”

Lady Gaga Aims for Philip Treacy Internship

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Rumors,

What’s Lady Gaga‘s next step to world domination? Hats.

The “Telephone” singer - famed for her eccentric fashion sense - has approached renowned hat designer Philip Treacy to take her on as an intern so she can learn all the tricks of the trade, but he has yet to give her a definite answer.

“Lady Gaga has requested an internship. But Philip will have to check her sewing skills first,” Treacy’s representative stated.

Gaga - who is thought to have approached the hatmaker at this year’s BRIT Awards - is often seen wearing bizarre headpieces including lobster hats and a telephone on her head. The 24-year-old star is not the first celebrity to want to do a fashion internship.

Last year, Kanye West revealed his determination to carve out a successful career as a clothes designer and had been writing to fashion houses in Europe - including Louis Vuitton on London’s Bond Street - asking for experience. Kanye said, “I’m going to go and take an internship and just do something that’s like completely normal, and just rap at the weekends or something.”
