INDIE NEWSROOM: Sex and the City Prequel on The CW…Snooki, Unmasked…Versace x H&M Sells Out — Again

Lester Brathwaite — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 22:56:44 +0000

- The CW has greenlit a pilot for The Carrie Diaries, a prequel to Sex and the City based on Candice Bushnell‘s book of the same name. The series will chronicle young Carrie Bradshaw‘s senior year in high school as she takes her first stilettoed steps through New York in the early 80s. Meanwhile, I’m looking forward to the young Samantha Jones storyline where she’s blowing rails and everything/one else at 54. [The Hollywood Reporter]

- Snooki proved that there’s an actual person underneath all that tanner, bronzer, concealer, foundation, toner, shadow, blush, lip gloss, lip stick, mascara and whatever else she cakes on to step out of her hobbit hole. And that person is adorable. And 5 years old. [Refinery29]

- André Leon Talley thinks Republican candidate-in-training Rick Santorum is a dick and is not afraid to tweet about it. But in all fairness…Rick Santorum really is a huge dick. [Jezebel]

- Emanuel Ungaro‘s really going through it. Not only is the label not showing its fall collection next month and cancelling its pre-fall show scheduled for next week, but it can’t fill orders for its spring collection either. [WWD]

- Brad Goreski revealed his latest gig via Twitter — she’s styling J. Brand‘s fall 2012 show. [StyleCaster]

- Just hours after debuting online, Versace for H&M’s Cruise Collection has already sold out. That is before it shows up later today on eBay. [Huff Po]

RED CARPET REPORT CARD: Gisele Bundchen in Emanuel Ungaro

Amanda Gabriele — Wed, 11 May 2011 11:40:05 +0000

In this edition of Red Carpet Report Card, Gisele Bundchen will be graded on her Emanuel Ungaro Spring 2011 dress and Christian Louboutin Pigalle shoes worn to the Robin Hood Foundation Gala in New York City. See how she looked after the jump.

Gisele will be rated on the below categories, five being the highest and 1 being the lowest.

Fit: 5

Appropriateness: 4

Trendiness: 4

Styling: 4

Shoes: 5

Hair: 5

Makeup: 5

Pose: 5

Confidence: 5

Now that Gisele has worn this Ungaro dress, it can be archived because no one else will ever do it this much justice. I love the intense red-orange lipstick with her extremely sleek hairdo. This look could have been difficult to pull off, but Gisele did it perfectly.

Emanuel Ungaro has Something for Your Mistress, Not Your Wife

Amanda Gabriele — Tue, 08 Mar 2011 16:45:21 +0000

Looking at the Emanuel Ungaro Fall 2011 collection, a repeat of leather collars with metal accents was the first indication that designer Giles Deacon was listening when Ungaro notoriously said, “I dress mistresses, not wives.” Sheer garments adorned with Lesage embroideries were rich and risqué while hemlines skimmed the tops of thighs. Body-conscious garments came down the runway in various forms like leather cocktail dresses, velvet suits and teeny tiny colorful silk dresses. The shoes were sweet yet sharp, in a rainbow of colors easily interchangeable among the looks. It won’t take long for these mistresses’ clothes to end up on the floor, as there is little to remove and barely anything left to the imagination. But I could see many a young fashionista work these dresses and jumpsuits into more avant-garde forms, mixing them with heavier fabrics and softer hair.

How To Master the Headband Braid in a Minute

Jessica Lapidos — Wed, 02 Mar 2011 20:14:36 +0000

You’ve seen the headband braid on many a runway since the Spring 2011 shows, and celebs have been running amok with this milkmaid ‘do. There are some shortcutters out there who wear the fake hair braided headband, like Xtina Aguilera, but they are simply not as chic as the real deal. Get the look like Ashley Olsen, Emanuel Ungaro Spring 2011, Rachel Roy Fall 2011 and so many others, and follow my instructional video to hair mastery. I tried it out this morning for the first time and it was a success! It’s super easy and looks fab.

How to get the look:

Start with wet hair. Apply a smoothing serum like Warren Tricomi Hair Polish to keep it sleek. Brush hair to one side and pull it ear level. Begin braiding while pulling outward and forward, then guide the braid upward. Pull the plait over your head keeping it aligned to the tops of your ears. Using complementing bobby pins, pin it in place at the end of the braid and eliminate the need for a hair tie.

Wear it like Ashley Olsen with a loose Cali vibe by leaving it wispy, or slick it back with pomade or hairspray for the super tight Ungaro look.

Good Idea/Bad Idea: Bringing Back Two-Toned Lipstick

Nicole Vardo — Wed, 29 Dec 2010 11:28:18 +0000

Let’s bring back this two-toned lipstick trend that Tom Pecheux for M·A·C Cosmetics created for the Emanuel Ungaro show back in 2009, I have to say even though a bit on the odd side, it has grown on me… thoughts?

RUNWAY: Emanuel Ungaro Fall/Winter 2010

Ungaro managed to produce an ugly collection without Lindsay Lohan as creative director, unfortunately they were better off with Lindsay as far as press goes.

Lindsay Lohan did not attend the fall 2010 Emanuel Ungaro show in Paris this morning. “She’s not involved in this collection,” Ungaro owner Asim Abdullah told WWD backstage.

“I’m the first to say that in certain situations, my name will cheapen things.”

Lindsay Lohan finally admits that her name cheapened the Emanuel Ungaro brand. Now, can we get a quote from Ungaro?

No One Wants Emanuel Ungaro!

Rebecca Alexander — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 15:01:27 +0000

Lindsay Lohan is apparently ‘sucking the life‘ out of Ungaro. The label has been dropped from two major retailers for Spring 2010; neither Neiman Marcus or Net-a-Porter want to carry the next Ungaro collection.

Ungaro Dumps Cortazar For Lindsay

Marissa Moshell, Student — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 16:53:57 +0000

News has it some changes are being made over at the Emanuel Ungaro house. Emanuel has supposidly parted with Esteban Cortazar after reaching a “mutual agreement.” So why the break up? Ungaro CEO Mounir Moufarrige wanted to use a celebrity model for more traffic at the house, but Cortazar strongly disagreed. And when news of Lindsay Lohan being the next model broke out, Cortazar fled. Guess Lindsay was more important.

Emanuel Ungaro for M.A.C?

Kirby Marzec — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 22:00:35 +0000

Emanuel Ungaro, French designer known for his classy, natural and simple designs recently started a makeup collection with M.A.C. Wait a second, did I see that correctly? M.A.C, as in crazy flashy eye-makeup M.A.C? Who would have ever thought M.A.C would agree to sell pale, neutral colors of lipstick, gloss and blush? I would have expected a collaboration like this to be linked to Clinique, NARS or even Lancome. Maybe this is a sign that M.A.C is taking it down a notch, from the big and bold to the natural and simple.

Ungaro Teams up With MAC

Rebecca Alexander — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 19:10:25 +0000

MAC Cosmetics has collaborated with designer Esteban Cortazar of Emanuel Ungaro to launch a limited edition makeup collection, called MAC Emanuel Ungaro, which was inspired by the fashion house’s fall runway looks.

Really excited about this collaboration, love MAC and the Heatherette line was unimpressive. Love the vibrant Ungaro colors, and MAC always does a great job of translating hues into cosmetics.
