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).

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.

Happy Bastille Day! Celebrate With a Look Back at Our Favorite French Style Icons, From Yesterday and Today

What is it about the French? Or French women to be exact? No matter what they’re wearing–whether it be a t-shirt or a ballgown–they always manage to exude that certain…je ne sais quoi.

And it’s precisely that je ne sais quoi that has inspired designers (and our wardrobes) for generations.

So in honor of Bastille Day, we’re taking a look back at some of our favorite french style icons–from those of the past like Jane Birkin and Brigitte Bardot, all the way up to the new guard, like Charlotte Gainsbourg and Lea Seydoux.

Must See: YSL at the Petit Palais

Must See: YSL at the Petit Palais

There was one last thing to do before I left Paris on Friday– see the YSL exhibit at the Petit Palais. It was the most massive, most satisfying exhibition of a designer’s work that I have ever seen.

PETA Slightly Accomplishes Mission

In case you haven’t heard, Liz Hurley’s the new face of Blackglama, the (in)famous line of furs. The ad itself is kind of silly. She crouches, she pouts, she wears nothing but her mink, but it’s her presence in general that’s worth discussing. In the past, women like Catherine Deneuve, Marlene Dietrich, Judy Garland and Read more →
