CELEBRITY FASHION TIPS is your every day guide to all things celebrity fashion that explores often mysterious and exclusive relationship between celebrities and the fashion world.
We put together wealth of difficult to get information and share this knowledge with the world. We connect people to the marketplace filled with products (and look-alikes) seen on celebrities in real life, on red carpet, in film and television.
New York — Kate Hudson was seen on the set of her new film Something Borrowed (05/04/2010), wearing Fendi Raffia Straw Platform Pumps ($695 ). Kate also carried Chanel bag.
Los Angeles, CA — Adam Lambert attended the 2010 GLAAD Awards, where he performed two of his tracks – Music Again and Fever. Adam, who wore skinny two-button suit with a skinny tie, color coordinated very well his hair, tie and vintage sunglasses!
Las Vegas, CA — Vanessa Hudgens attended CDS Luncheon (03/18/2010), wearing Tucker Boat Neck Dress with Cap Sleeves, The Row Highbrook Jacket in Black and Sergio Rossi Cachet Leather Peep-Toe Pumps in Black.
LOS ANGELES, CA — Kim Kardashian recently attended Rich Soil launch at Kitson (10/21/2009) with her mom in tow. Kim wore for the occasion a burgundy mini dress with cutouts that, may we say, was the essence of fall fashion packing several hot trends! Kim’s dress featured animal pattern (leopard), asymmetry, strong shoulders and, of course, perfect fall color. Have you seen the cover of November 2009 US edition of Vogue Magazine?
The 29-year-old socialite accessorized with black Spanx tights, black Fendi Mary-Jane platform heels [sold out,was $775] and Christian Louboutin Triangolo black satin clutch with bow detail. Kim used the clutch once before back in July 2009.

We featured several asymmetrical dresses that will help to achieve Kim’s look:
NEW YORK — We caught VMA winner Taylor Swift leaving her NY hotel on September 15, 2009.
Taylor was dressed in French Connection Owl Dress. While UK shoppers can get exact dress for 70GBP via fashionbeans.com or French Connection UK for 56GBP, US shoppers can only get similar owl spot dress for $89.99, was $198 via French Connection USA.
NEW YORK — Taylor Momsen attended Allegra Versace’s 23rd birthday party on Monday (6/29/2009) at Gramercy Park Hotel. The 15-year-old actress and rocker combined a hot pink mini dress with goofy punk/rocker chick boots. Although it’s not the best Taylor’s look we’ve seen, she’s definitely created something there.
We had no luck IDing things Taylor wore, so here’s our alternative options.
NEW YORK — There’s brand new MTV show, It’s On With Alexa Chung, featuring Britain’s favorite ex-model, journalist and TV personality Alexa Chung. The show, which premiered on Monday (6/15/2009), is supposed to fill the void left after TRL went kaput.
We find Chung’s style appealing enough to be worthy of regular coverage. Chung gets plenty of attention of the fashion press for her distinctive, quirky style. She frequently appears on Best Dressed Lists, in fashion magazines and on the front row of fashion shows.

With The Curious Case of Benjamin Button leading Oscars with 13 nominations including one for Best Costume Design, we decided to revisit this movie’s fashion. We will focus on one of Cate Blanchett character’s key looks – a flared yellow coat, turtleneck and leggings she was wearing when she was struck by a taxi.
Jacqueline West once said that she paid special attention to putting as many buttons on Brad’s and Cate’s costumes as possible. This was a sort of tribute to the fact that Benjamin Button’s father owned a button factory. West even added oversized round black buttons on the back of Blanchett’s yellow coat.
Another way to own this coat is to show this post to your taylor…
’Benjamin Button’ director David Fincher wanted Cate Blanchett to twirl in the scene that changed her character’s life so dramatically. Fincher wanted Jacqueline West make a coat that would twirl too. So, she made this coat with a wide circular bottom. It’s a wool topper swing coat with turn cuffs and an oversized collar. It is lined with black and the cuffs and collar are black wool.
If you happened to be in Los Angeles area, you can visit the 17th annual Art of Motion Picture Costume Design exhibition at FIDM Museum & Galleries at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, 919 S. Grand Ave., Los Angeles. The exhibition is running through March 29, 2009. Picture below shows the coat tucked behind other costumes. For information call 213-624-1200, ext. 2224.
