At last, the stress of Black Friday and Cyber Monday shopping is over. We've got all of today's fashion news, and ok, one swanky watch that you'll definitely want to buy, right here!
Lena Dunham was caught schmoozing with Anna Wintour at last night's CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund event in LA. We think we smell a Vogue cover... {HuffPo} That infamous "Cocaine Kate" UK tabloid cover is apparently still haunting Kate Moss: Playboy reportedly had to move its 60th anniversary issue party from LA to London because its hard-partying cover girl is having trouble securing a US visa. {NY Post} Kanye West may be decked out in custom Maison Martin Margiela for Yeezus, but Drake is getting the Calvin Klein Collection treatment for his current North American tour. {WWD}
An anonymous source, who's either blatantly lying or will do anything to support the pricy, hard-partying lifestyle that goes along with being in Cara Delevingne's inner circle, has alerted the media that the 20-year-old model is currently in the runnings for a role in Fifty Shades of Grey.
We already know that Fifty Shades of Grey is good at driving rope and tie sales, so just imagine what the smutty book will do for a lingerie line. Tha
Here's a surefire way to get your new ad campaign some buzz: Base it off of the insanely popular book of the moment, Fifty Shades of Grey and then cas
Ever since Fifty Shades of Grey began dominating (ha) the Best Sellers list, it seems like the whole world has been going BDSM. The dominatrix has always been a key figure in high fashion, but now that even soccer moms are getting in on the action--driving sales of rope and ties--and licensing deals for everything from lingerie to mugs to who knows what else in the works, it seems that BDSM style is finally going mainstream. But what do the real-life dominatrixes have to say about the new phenomenon? What does an actual dominatrix wear? And how on earth do they manage sporting a corset and heels while simeoltaneously whipping people? We chatted with Mistress Tetra, a professional Domme working in Los Angeles, California, to find out the answers to all these questions and more. Read on for style advice from her.
Fifty Shades of Grey has been a breakout publishing phenomenon of Twilight proportions (if you substitute tweens for adult women, and vampires for S&M masters), so really it was only a matter of time until this happened: Yep, the bestseller is getting a merchandise line and it will likely include lingerie, fragrance and, of course, 'adult' products.
Clothes line rope has been flying off the shelves at New York City hardware stores recently--but this isn't related to any green, eco-friendly, retro-ironic-hipster initiative against using dryers. No, it's a little more... grey than that. Fifty Shades of Grey, to be precise. According to the New York Post, local ladies are going crazy for the easy to access "accessories" used in the soft-core bestseller, including (but definitely not limited to) soft cotton clothes line rope, riding crops, hand cuffs, and of course, silver-grey menswear ties. Adult retailer Babeland has seen a 30% sales spike in 'kinky products' over the past few months, with an 81% increase in visits to its website's Bondage page since the book's popularity skyrocketed. Maybe the best reaction of all has come from the generally conservative Brooks Brothers, which sent out a cheeky PR blast stating, "We may not have Fifty Shades of Grey Ties, but we do have Eight Shades of Grey Ties." Whoever came up with that zinger, bravo.
