Angelina Jolie On Tokyo Red Carpet

Angelina Jolie was super sexy at the Salt Tokyo premiere.  She arrived in a black Versace dress with a thigh-high slit.  Did I mention the low-cut back and the additional slit on the right arm?  There was no mistaking the star on this red carpet.  Her chiffon dress floated ethereally as the actress glided along the carpet.  The high-neck of the gown was the most modest, and possibly my favorite; it was a bit of a contrast with the various slits and low-cut dips.  Jolie pulled it off beautifully, she managed to look incredibly graceful in this ultra sexy dress.  The only question left to ask is, “what will she wear to the next premiere?”  We will be watching.

January Jones Wore Versace to Mad Men’s Times Square Premiere

January Jones and Elisabeth Moss were front and center at the premiere of Mad Men in New York City last night.  Jones wore a super sexy white Versace dress with beading.  Moss was also sparkling in a nude color dress accented with glistening beading.  You would never see this much skin on either of their characters, Betty Draper or Peggy Olsen, and I’m loving it.  They made the event glamorous and stylish for their dedicated fans.  The premiere was watched on a wide screen in Times Square among 10,000 of their closest fans.  At the end of the day, maybe it’s about public relations instead of advertising.

Versace’s Fall 2010 ad campaign was shot by Mario Testino in black and white.  Models Iselin Steiro and Anna Selezneva (pictured above) are featured alongside Valerija Kelava, Marcel Castenmiller and Tomek Szczukiecki.  The background is kind of gritty compared to the clean lines of the collection, but that only gives the campaign an edgy vibe.

Versace Brings Luxury to Cell Phones

Versace has combined luxury and technology to bring us the Versace ‘Unique’ phone.  It takes mobile phones to a whole new level.  We’re mainly referring to your choice of the 18K yellow gold frame or the 316L grade stainless steel.  Did we mention the sapphire crystal screen?  You might be tempted to keep this valuable jewel locked away for its protection, but it’s actually scratch-proof.  ‘Unique’ might actually be, well, unique.  Besides the glitz and glamour, it also performs regular phone duties.  That includes e-mail, a 5 megapixel camera and media player all on a 3G network.  The Versace Medusa head is also prominently imprinted into the phone to solidify the luxury experience.

Intern With Anna Wintour for $13,000 and Versace for $20,000?

Anna Wintour auctioned a  week at Vogue with the chance to meet with her, and the top bid has reached $13,000.  The bid could go higher with only two days left in the auction.  Now Donatella Versace has gotten into the action, and offered a semester at Versace’s New York office.  Her donation is expected to go for $20,000.   The lucky intern at Versace also gets the opportunity to attend both the Versace and Versus fashion shows in Milan, and meet Donatella Versace backstage.  Have internships within the fashion industry become more coveted, or is it the access these donations offer?  Having face time these titans could be a once in a lifetime opportunity.  Both Donatella and Anna should serve as examples to us all about giving back.  They’ve donated their time and a piece of the mystique surrounding them.  Charity Buzz is the vehicle for these acts of kindness, and the proceeds go to the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights.

MFW: Versus Fall 2010 Runway

versusfall2010gversusfall2010e

Versus is the revived diffusion line from Versace, designed by Christopher Kane.  The fall 2010 collection was on fire.  Delicately pleated mini skirts in scarlett red, midnight black and caribbean blue took center stage.  The collection was eerily reminiscent of the 1950′s, even though the skirts were far more modest in their coverage back then.  One look had a cardigan thrown around the shoulders and it further highlighted the 50′s.  Some of the looks reminded me of the cigarette girls at the theater in the 1950′s as well.  Those were the sweeter looks.  Along the way, a darker side emerged in the form of bondage; strips of ribbon made up the upper half of a few dresses.  Black leather gloves reaching the upper arm paired with a black pair of knee-length boots and short black dress cried out dominatrix.  Among my favorite were the graphic T-shirts which were a nice complement to all the skin shown.  Christopher Kane revisited the past and brought back a very sexy future.  The collection makes up with femininity what it lacks in modesty.  There is something inherently sweet about the Versus girl, even as she takes control.  Who wouldn’t want to be a Versus girl come fall?

MFW: Versace A/W 2010 Runway

versacefall2010cversacefall2010b

Versace’s Autumn/Winter 2010 collection had all the sensuality we’ve come to expect from the design house.  Strategic cut-outs and thigh-high slits were the recurring theme on this runway.  Even the boots had cleavage.  The color palette consisted of sunshine yellow, lovely lavendar, pristine white, cobalt blue and chocolate brown; it was was pleasing to the eyes, and will be a welcomed sight come fall.  There was even a touch of metallic in bronze and silver to bring shine to the collection.  Versace was not only about sensuality this season, it brought innovation to the runway.  Some of the wool coats had what appeared to be velour pattern sleeves.  Leather was woven throughout much of the collection, and it was mixed in with fabric to construct jackets and pants that stopped at the ankles.  It was always used for the trim of wool coats, like the cuffs, collars, and sleeves.  The leather bags and shoes completed the use of the material.  I loved that the final two looks resembled armour for battle.  It’s as if Donatella was letting it be known that she is a warrior, a metaphor for he willingness to see Versace through these economic times.

Versace’s Spring 2010 Ad Campaign

versace-georgia-may-jagger-versace-ss2010Versace is hoping you will flip for their new ad campaign starring model Georgia May Jagger.  She is the new face of Versace, and the young daughter of Jerry Hall and Mick Jagger may be just what the label ordered.  The Spring 2010 ad displays an upside-down Georgia with her bag draped over her in what appears to be an unmade bed.  Her hair and make up are flawless, in total, she is very polished.  Even so, there is definitely a youthful and edgy vibe to this campaign.  It’s not even overtly sexy.  Perhaps Donatella Versace is targeting a younger demographic.
