Week In Review

Alexa Chung on Body Image, Why Fashion Doesn’t Like Anne Romney, and Margiela x H&M

Ann Romney Gets No Fashion Love: Outspoken Democrat Diane von Furstenberg admitted that she’s “not sure” how Anne Romney obtained one of her dresses to wear to a rally, and the fashion PR establishment has been pretty silent on the First Lady hopeful’s outfit choices. Why won’t the fashion industry embrace Anne Romney?

Erin Heatherton on Photoshop: Victoria’s Secret is no stranger to Photoshop scandals. Their very own angel Erin Heatherton let us know how she really feels about all the Photoshop fuss.

All The Pretty Colors: We mapped out fashion month by color to show you which color trends to expect from each city, and which hues will be big next spring. The visuals are awesome!

10 Fashion Reunions We Really Want To Happen

Lately it seems like reunions are everywhere: the Beverly Hills gang in Old Navy commercials, Entertainment Weekly‘s Reunions Issue, the upcoming Arrested Development reunion (the only one that truly matters, let’s get real). Funnily enough, no one called us to see who we’d like to see reunited, so we thought we’d make our own list. We’re not ones to be left out of a trend after all! We put our thinking caps on to come up with ten fashion reunions we’d like to see here at Fashionista – we will even moderate. It’s guaranteed to be way chicer than your high school reunion.

In Honor of Bella Swan Getting Hitched, Here Are Our 10 Most Favorite Movie Wedding Dresses

A knock-off of Bella Swan’s wedding dress (Twilight‘s heroine, in case you’ve been living under a rock for three years) just went on sale (at left) and it got us thinking about memorable movie wedding dresses. Forget about people’s princesses who wear too much eyeliner or wannabe princesses who get divorced after 72 days: Movies are where the real, unattainable, fantasy love-and-marriage happens.

But Trentini was not the originator of the jump shot, nor was her stylist, Grace Coddington. It was photographer Phillipe Halsman, whose lens captured stars of yore like Marilyn Monroe, Grace Kelley, and Audrey Hepburn in mid-air.
