Cannes Red Carpet Trend: Seeing Scarlet

Edited by Amanda Gabriele

Cannes Film Festival came to a close during Memorial Day weekend, and we were quite impressed with most of the red carpet looks from our favorite celebrities and their stylists. Black and bling were certainly prevalent red carpet choices for the occasion, but we were pleasantly surprised at how many ladies were seeing red during the fest. Whether from nose to toes or just with a splash of detail, red on the red carpet was hot, hot, hot at Cannes 2012. See the gallery after the jump.

- Just when you thought all the fashion house musical chairs was over, Alistair Carr has left his post as design director of Pringle of Scotland. I guess once he popped he could stop…I know, I know, it’s cheap but c’mon it’s Friday. [Telegraph]

- Glamour UK named Kristen Stewart the best dressed woman of 2012 after every other woman apparently fell off the face of the earth. Clearly Twilight fever has yet to die a merciful death as her shaggy co-star Robert Pattinson was named best dressed man. [Glamour UK]

- For Vanity Fair’s 18th annual Hollywood Issue, Mario Testino shot eleven of filmdom’s hottest young actresses — including Jennifer Lawrence, Mia Wasikowsa and Oscar nominees Rooney Mara and Jessica Chastain, who are all featured on the front cover —  for an homage to old Hollywood glamour. Squint a little and Rooney Mara looks just like silent film star Louise Brooks. [Vanity Fair]

Breaking Swan: Kristen Stewart to Be the Face of Balenciaga’s New Scent, Tentatively Titled “Her…?”

Edited by Lester Brathwaite

Well, this was bound to happen eventually. Despite repeated warnings, someone has finally taken a massive gulp from the Kristen Stewart punch bowl and has decided to hire the sometime actress as the star of a campaign. But why did it have to be you, Nicolas Ghesquière? Why did it have to be you?

The Photoshop Is Closed: New Tool Measures Amount of Airbrushing

Edited by Lester Brathwaite

Photoshop can work wonders. Miracles really. How else can you explain Kristen Stewart appearing almost human and nearly interesting  in W‘s September issue? But as much as it can be used for good, Photoshop is more often used for evil; subtly — and sometimes blatantly — erasing the imperfections of models and celebrities. Now that a computer science professor at Dartmouth has introduced a new software tool to distinguish, on a scale from 1-5, how much a photo has been altered — your tax dollars hard at work — is this the end of Photoshop fakery?

Kristen Stewart Dons a Typically Messy Hairdo at the Breaking Dawn Premiere

Edited by Amanda Gabriele

Kristen Stewart stepped out on the red carpet last night for the premiere of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 in a sequined J. Mendel Spring 2012 gown. Although she was working that thigh high slit, her makeup was a little too heavy for the event. It’s a good thing Fekkai Celebrity Stylist Adir Abergel was able to tame her typically messy, matted-down mane. See how to get the look after the jump.

Perfecting the Dead-Eyed Stare: Kristen Stewart in Vogue Italia

Edited by Lester Brathwaite

I guess even Vogue Italia, that one link to editorial relevance in the Condé Nast stable of periodicals, can run afoul every now and then. Case in point, this bit of visual vomit Michelangelo di Battista threw up for their latest issue. Filmed in what could easily be your grandmother’s attic painted the most abhorrent shade of blue — with uninspired styling by Alice Gentilucci and listless and lifeless posing from Kristen Stewart whose hair apparently hasn’t seen a brush in ages –  this spread has Italian Vogue wading in levels of American Vogue dreckitude.  Enjoy after the jump. 

Oh No-la! UK Bans Dakota Fanning’s Oh Lola! Ads for Marc Jacobs

Edited by Lester Brathwaite

What is the world coming to when a doe-eyed ingenue can’t have a giant bottle in the shape of a flower resting suggestively between her jailbait thighs? Le sigh. The UK’s Advertising Standards Authority has banned ads for Marc Jacobs‘ new fragrance “Oh Lola!” starring one Ms. Dakota Fanning for being “sexually provocative.”
