Emmy Awards Fashion Best Dressed

August 30, 2010 By Cara Leave a Comment

I have to say that the Red Carpet for the 2010 Emmy Awards was a bit of a snooze. Black, white and navy blue dominated along with simplicity. While you can never go wrong with the basics and classics, it can easily make for a sea of ho-hum style. Everyone looked lovely, I just didn’t find a dress I would shell out over $5,000 for. That was the most affordable dress on the Emmy red carpet. $200K was the most expensive gown. Click HERE to see the 2010 Emmy Awards Worst Dressed.

My top three have to be Christina Hendricks, Claire Danes and Kim Kardashian (yes, too cringe to admit it). Hendricks wore a Resort 2011 purple Zac Posen creation. Claire Danes was stunning for her first Emmy win in a Armani Prive gown dripping with Swarovski crystals. Kim went with a Greek inspired metallic beaded neckline and white silk Marchesa gown that reminds me why I adore anything Marchesa sends down the carpet. Kelly Osbourne also looked ravishing in a Tony Ward dress that hugged her toned bod and took the little black dress to a uber-glam level.

January Jones gets my nod for most fashion forward as she wore a loud but unique blue dress. However, this is also a miss as the seashell boob effect is not hot. Also, her hair looks like the result of a one night stand in a married man’s bed. It was actually a Versace creation. Lea Michele also gets a nod in her Oscar de la Renta midnight blue gown. It was a classic and safe choice that embraced the deep hued blue trend. Perhaps a more popping color would have done her a favor. The dress’ details were lost in the super dark color so I am guessing it was stunning in person.

Finally, Betty White wore a pastel dress that makes you want to pinch her cheeks and ask her to help you nab one of the groomsmen at your friend’s wedding.

Taylor Lautner the New Face of Giorgio Armani?

December 10, 2009 By Crista Webster Leave a Comment

It looks like ‘New Moon’ werewolf Taylor Lautner is taking a page from the David Beckham handbook.

Word on the street is that Lautner is being considered as the face of Armani’s latest fragrance and affordable clothing campaign.

Via In Touch:

“Giorgio has offered Taylor a deal rumored to be worth millions for the ads,” an insider reveals.

And although a rep for Taylor denies the story, the insider adds, “Taylor is flattered and really considering it.”

Lautner, who added 30+ pounds to play werewolf Jacob Black will likely be sporting t-shirts as opposed to Beckham’s briefs. Sorry ladies.

Cristiano Ronaldo To Replace David Beckham

October 9, 2009 By Holly Stafford Leave a Comment

Was the person who made this decision high as a kite? Italian fashion designer Armani says soccer player Cristiano Ronaldo will model underwear and jeans in a new worldwide advertising campaign, replacing current model David Beckham, in their spring-summer 2010 collection. *Blankly Stares* Yes, I can’t believe what my eyes are reading either… Beckham stripped down for Emporio Armani last year. He has also posed for the brand with his wife Victoria and the two currently head the Emporio Armani autumn/winter underwear campaign.

Per EiTB:

“This time it’s the turn of the international media’s favourite footballer; one that plays for Real Madrid, drinks champagne with Paris Hilton in Los Angeles and sails his boat around the Mediterranean,” concludes La Gazzeta.

Who’s idea of a joke was it to hire this greaseball? Ronaldo will be feature on billboards for Armani’s younger clothes section in all of Europe’s major cities as of February next year, with the advertising campaign will most likely taking place in Milan. This isn’t the fist time Ronaldo has replaced Beckham; he also replaced him in the United team in 2003 after Beckham signed for Real. But don’t feel bad for Beckham just yet — He is currently developing his own Beckham-branded men’s underwear line, hoping to launch by fall 2010, so his days of half naked billboards are far from over!

David Beckham Won’t Do Angelina Jolie, He Has Standards

July 14, 2009 By Cara 2 Comments

David Beckham is all about Armani and showing off billboards that feature his bulge while he does something sweaty like sit ups. Recently he and his wifey, Victoria Beckham, both posed in the label’s underwear ad together. The Armani brand saw a jump in sales after David’s most recent underwear campaign (click here to see those photos) and the brand is expecting the same increase in sales after the duo’s new advertisements lure you to buy new panties.

Now, rumors are running amok that Angelina Jolie has agreed to join the Armani train and pose with David for a new take on the campaign. The word is that deal was pending a stamp of approval by their significant others. Brad Pitt and Victoria Beckham were to have the final say in whether or not the add would happen. Any further rumors as to the Jolie/Beckham Armani ad have been squashed by David.

Via OK!:

“I don’t think that’s true. I definitely don’t think that’s true. Think it’s something put out in the press. She’s an amazing person and so is Brad Pitt. They’re an incredible couple – got an amazing family. You know she wouldn’t do it and I wouldn’t do it. At the end of the day, I wouldn’t do it because I’m married.”

Wait…do they actually get to have sexy times while doing a photo shoot? Or is it just standard in Angie’s contracts that she gets to play with the fun-noodle of any hot co-stars?

Quoteables:

Celebitchy: “Uh… so are we still talking about Armani fragrances then? Or is Becks just riffing on how Posh wouldn’t let him get within ten feet of Angelina’s vagina?”

David Beckham’s Armani Bulge – Photo

June 11, 2009 By Cara 2 Comments

I needed something to cleanse my minds eye after seeing Phil Spector’s mugshot this morning. David Beckham and his bulge will have to do. Jonathon Rhys Meyers must be busy.

Armani is still using David Beckham to shill man panties. After his first round of ads increased sales over 50% at Selfridges, the brand is sticking with the footballer. David is once again the crotch for the fall/winter campaign shown above in the final stages of his 3 year deal with the designer.

Giorgio Armani Recovering from Hepatitis

May 21, 2009 By Cara 1 Comment

Giorgio Armani has been battling hepatitis behind closed doors. The secretive recovery sent whispers that he Italian designer was falling from fashion grace. To clear the air Giorgio himself has released a statement.

Per Reuters:

“I have in fact suffered from hepatitis by poisoning, which, certainly is not a rare illness. Nevertheless it is one which requires some time for a complete recovery. My commitment both on the creative and management side has never relented,” he said.

“Consequently there has been no shift in delegation of my authorities to any one of the executives and everything in the company is proceeding with the usual energy.”

Thank the fashion gods. I am glad it wasn’t the dirty kind of hepatitis. On a side note I had my 12 year old cousin convinced she’d get hepatitis if she didn’t wear panties and this turned into a small outbreak of fear of public toilets and penchant for granny panties and simultaneously proved I should never be in charge of small children.

Victoria Beckham Giorgio Armani Ads – Photos

January 14, 2009 By Cara 1 Comment

The same day that Katie Holmes busts out her ads for Miu Miu, Victoria Beckham undresses for Giorgio Armani.

The Beckhams are BFF with Armani and Vicky follows in the steps of her husband, David Beckham. The ball player did an underwear ad for the men’s campaign. Rumors followed his freakishly well groomed no-no area, stating he was “digitally enhanced” for the ads. Posh Spice denied the enhancement and then checked her makeup in his shining crotch.
