Net-A-Porter Cruise 2009 Preview
I think it was one of the hottest days of the year in London, so it was quite apt that NET-A-PORTER previewed their 2009 Cruise collection today, which they kindly invited me to.
There were some well established designers already on Net-A-Porter like Oscar de la Renta, 3.1 Philip Lim, Juicy Couture, Christian Louboutin and Jimmy Choo, and there were also some newer designers like Preen, Richard Nicholl and Elizabeth & James.
The jewel in the crown was definitely this fuschia pink Preen dress, which has been especially commissioned for Net-A-Porter by Preen's British designers Justin Thornton and Thea Bregazzi.
I think this dress would look great on Rihanna.
You may recognise this dress, as it has been worn by Amy Winehouse, Gwyneth Paltrow and Agyness Deyn. The designers reissue this beautiful dress every season.
What I excitedly spotted whilst shifting through the racks was Daisy Lowe's MCQ dress, which she wore to the Glamour of The Year Awards this year.
You'll also be able to buy are Jonathan Saunders colourful designs, RM by Roland Mouret well structured pieces and Oscar de la Renta's classics full of colour. and texture. The orange caftan is so beautiful. It is almost like a red carpet gown, as it has a train.
It is perfect for those holidays on the yacht or in the Caribbean.
Damn Heidi Klum... and her £1.1 million legs
With make-up, or without make-up, with sunglasses or without, Heidi Klum is one stunning lady. Here she is in New York at the Conan O'Brien show, emulating Victoria Beckham in an all-black ensemble including Grecian goddess dress, shades, and Christian Louboutin heels. The host of Project Runway spoke to Conan about how her left leg is insured for £100,000 less than her right leg (together they're worth £1.1m) because it is scarred.
