CATE BLANCHETT: WORST DRESSED AT VENICE FILM FESTIVAL

Since Cate Blanchett happens to be the face of Armani, we ASSUME she can select anything she likes from his fashion collections. At least she won’t have to PAY for this monstrosity. Cate is usually noted for her stylish but understated elegance. How she was talked into wearing this peacock inspired flashy gown with a sheer cape is a mystery. This voluminous frock does a good job of disguising the wearer’s weight, but Cate certainly doesn’t need THAT. Just goes to show, even Armani Prive makes mistakes…

DAVID BECKHAM’S UNDERWEAR WILL BE AT A STORE NEAR YOU

Who’s better at selling men’s underwear than David Beckham? David had an epiphany when he realized how much underwear Emporio Armani was selling after he became their spokesperson. When his contract was up (tennis player Rafael Nadel was hired to replace him) Beckham jumped at the chance to create his OWN collection of what he calls “men’s bodywear.” He consulted his soccer team mates on the final designs and his new collection will be distributed by H&M in 1800 stores in 40 countries. Accessible to all.
