Gucci

HARRY STYLES LIKES TARGET TOO!

Harry Styles is no stranger to fashion – his recent capsule collection collaboration with Gucci was a huge hit. Now he’s planning to launch something more accessible to his fans. Harry has done pop-up stores in the past and while they were successful, they didn’t reach the masses since the majority of his fans never had the chance to shop. He’s been working on a line of unisex clothing and accessories and Target is front runner for the collaboration. The only sticking point is that while Harry likes the idea that there are so many Targets across the US, he also wants to reach his global fans. So he’s hoping to work out a deal where Target sells the collection in America and other retailers handle the rest of the world.

Fashion Week Gucci Milan Twins

GUCCI’S AMAZING TWIN SHOW

Gucci pulled off a show during Milan Fashion Week that topped them all – including Kim Kardashian’s collaboration with Dolce & Gabbana. The Gucci show featured 68 pairs of IDENTICAL TWINS! Gucci’s Creative Director Alessandro Michele lived up to his title when he sent representatives to check out the yearly twins convention in Twinsburg, Ohio. Around two thousand identical pairs of twins show up, along with triplets and other multiples, plus curious onlookers. The twins selected for the Gucci show must have been THRILLED. During the show the audience was divided into two separate rooms. Audience members did NOT know they were watching twins until the finale when the screen dividing the room was lifted and models came together and joined hands with their siblings. Brilliant! (which is more than I can say for these pink outfits)

Adam Driver Gucci Lady Gaga Murder

LADY GAGA: A NEW YORK ITALIAN GIRL’S DREAM COMES TRUE

Lady Gaga’s dreams must have come true when she was cast in this Gucci movie, now filming in Italy. First of all, the character she plays, Patrizia Reggiani, the Italian socialite who married and later murdered Maurizio Gucci, is QUITE an eccentric. Patrizia was known to shop the fanciest neighborhood in Milan loaded with gaudy jewelry, movie star sunglasses, with a pet Macaw perched on her shoulder. She was described as having a “strong personality” and meddled relentlessly in her husband’s business. When he left her for another woman, she threatened to kill him several times, and finally hired a hitman to do it in 1995. Three hours after the shooting she had the girlfriend booted out of Maurizio’s house. She swears she’s innocent, but was convicted of the crime and is already out on parole, complaining that she has to shop at Zara now because she has no money. It all went to Maurizio’s children. Costarring in the film are Jeremy Irons, Jared Leto, and Al Pacino as other Guccis. Above, 5’1″ Lady Gaga (in white fur hat) and the ill-fated Mauricio (played by 6’2″ Adam Driver in white turtleneck) were filmed skiing in the Italian Alps in happier days.

Gucci Lady Gaga Murder Platform Shoes

NOBODY WALKS IN PLATFORMS BETTER THAN LADY GAGA

Lady Gaga might have walked out of her Rome hotel unrecognized if it weren’t for those astonishingly high platform shoes. It’s amazing that she isn’t hanging on to anyone or anything with those bumpy streets. Mariah Carey always needs several men to help her walk when she wears similar shoes. Gaga is In Italy filming her scandalous Gucci movie – it’s based on a book titled The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamour, and Greed. Gaga stars as Italian socialite Patrizia Reggiani, the ex-wife of Maurizio Gucci, grandson of the Gucci founder. Patrizia was tried and convicted of arranging the bloody assassination of her husband in 1995. Note that Gaga’s not wearing a single piece of Gucci – even her handbag is Valentino.

Andy Warhol Gucci Jared Leto Makeunder

WHAT HAPPENED TO JARED LETO?

Does anybody remember when Jared Leto was a sexy, good looking guy? It WAS a few years ago, when he was more of an actor than a musician. Recently he seems more interested in touring with his band Thirty Seconds to Mars, than acting, but he HAS been cast to play Andy Warhol in a movie about his life. Since Andy was not much in the looks department, maybe that’s why Jared hasn’t been looking so hot lately. (To put it mildly) Jared posted this photo of himself decked out in Gucci head to toe, and he has never looked worse. From that topknot to the socks and bedroom slippers, Jared has managed to make us forget he was ever a hot commodity.

Free Stuff Gucci Paris Jackson

PARIS JACKSON IS HARDLY IN NEED OF FREE CLOTHING

It’s easy to make assumptions when observing this outfit that Paris Jackson wore to the LACMA Film Gala. First, the gown is obviously Gucci and also WAY too covered up and serious for whimsical Paris. She lightened up the rather mature and elegant frock with flashy Gucci sneakers. A nice touch. We imagine that huge boxes of Gucci clothing (among other labels) are sent to Jackson FREE, in hopes that she will be photographed wearing them. Since she became an important “it” girl, Paris does not have to spend much of her 8 million dollar a year allowance from her father’s estate on clothing.

Bad Fashion Gucci Salma Hayek

SALMA HAYEK IS OVERDRESSED AND UNBALANCED

When it comes to fashion, Salma Hayek should be at the head of the pack since she’s married to a French fashion mogul with connections galore. But she took a few shaky steps backward and nearly fell on her face in this get-up. The Victorian inspired dress is designed by Gucci and comes heavily embellished with all the pearl frippery at the neckline. Tiny Salma is trying to balance out the mid-calf dress by wearing sky-high 8 inch heels, also by Gucci. Didn’t anyone tell Salma that being unable to walk without assistance is no longer in style? (Mariah Carey didn’t get the message either.) Modern women don’t like to be helpless.
Salma was photographed at the UK premier of Tale of Tales.

Charlotte Casiraghi Gucci Horses

CHARLOTTE CASIRAGHI IS AN URBAN COWGIRL

This is Charlotte Casiraghi competing in the “Style” round of the Gucci Masters in Paris. Her fashion theme is “urban fancy” and she’s wearing a baseball cap, gold chains and ghetto hoops, a hoodie, torn jeans, and glitter sneakers. Her horse is decorated with a dollar sign matching hers around his neck, a baseball cap, and graffiti. We didn’t realize horse shows had a sense of humor. Bruce Springsteen’s daughter Jessica rode in the same show with a Western style theme.

Cosmopolis Gucci Kristen Stewart Premier Rob Pattinson

ROB PATTINSON: LOOKING GOOD IS THE BEST REVENGE

#robpattinson #janetcharlton

In his first public appearance since the highly publicized Kristen Stewart cheating scandal, Rob Pattinson looked better than ever at the New York premier of his movie Cosmopolis. Certainly Kristen is gnashing her teeth at the sight of these photos and wondering if it was all worth it. With a little help from Gucci, Rob appeared immaculately composed and carefully avoided the forbidden subject. He was more overwhelmed by emotional fans than ever… (We still predict he will give Kristen another chance.)

Charity Greedy Gucci Mary J Blige scandal

MARY J BLIGE: CHARITABLE OR GREEDY?

Call us pessimistic, but we’re starting to think that most celebrity namesake charities are all about stashing money to avoid paying taxes while living high on the hog. The recent Mary J Blige scandal is a prime example. Dedicated to “women’s empowerment,” the charity promised four year scholarships to 24 aspiring female students but couldn’t manage to cover tuitions OR pay their own bills, despite raising hundreds of thousands of dollars. Are these charities just used to finance first class travel and lavish expenses for the celebrities and friends, plus generous salaries for relatives hired to run the “business?” What percentage of donations actually HELPED anyone? Certainly Blige enjoyed her “charitable image” and is embarrassed that she was caught. Why did Gucci donate both to Blige and Madonna’s highly questionable charities? Smells like a tax write-off for everyone involved.
