Jean Paul Gaultier Loved ‘Natural’ Amy Winehouse
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,
Jean Paul Gaultier loves Amy Winehouse's "natural" sense of style.
The fashion designer's Spring/Summer 2012 couture collection is based on the distinctive look of the late singer - who was found dead at her London home last July - and is surprised few others have drawn on the Back to Black star for fashion inspiration since her death.
"I was surprised when she died that no one in fashion made an homage to her. Her look was fabulous, fantastic - it was unique. Usually, actresses and singers need fashion advice. She naturally had the right make-up, the right earrings - it was a truly a style. She didn't just pick up one part of that look. And I love her voice, I love everything about her."
After the Amy-inspired collection was unveiled in January, the singer's father Mitch spoke out against it, branding it an "insult."

Zac Posen to Return to NYFW
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Fashion Designers, Fashion Shows, News,
Zac Posen is to return to New York Fashion Week. The US designer will show his Spring/Summer 2012 collection on September 11 at Lincoln Center's Avery Fisher Hall, a year after moving to Paris to show his eponymous collection in the French capital.
"Paris is wonderful but it just feels like the right time to show in New York," said Zac, who still presented his Z Spoke by Zac Posen diffusion line in his hometown.
"For the Zac Posen Collection, I wanted to give a different voice and focus in the international fashion arena. Obviously, New York has been extremely supportive of me and the stars were aligned to base Z Spoke in my hometown. I have learned over the past 10 years to trust my instinct, to have fun with experimentation and to innovate. I do not see this choice as a focus on Europe, rather, it's about taking a risk, which is something that is important to do as a creator in order to evolve," he said at the time of his move to Paris.

Tom Ford is to show at London Fashion Week for the first time.
The designer is to showcase his new collection at 6pm on Sunday, September 18, unlike last season where he opted against a formal catwalk presentation in favor of intimate appointments with key members of the press.
Other designers to show for the first time at the British Fashion Council's event include Teatum Jones - who will present their Spring/Summer 2012 collection on opening day - and Peter Jensen, who returns from a stint at New York Fashion Week.
As well as showing at London Fashion Week for the first time, Tom is also preparing for the release of his first cosmetics collection. Tom Ford Beauty's first Cosmetics Collection - a complete range of make-up, skin treatments and luxury brushes - will be on sale in selected stores from September before a widespread launch in October.
