Have you bought a denim dress this Spring Summer? Send us a pic, we love to see what our readers wear.

Blogs, web publications, online newspaper sites, trade magazines and everyone else in between scurry to post the latest snap of a “hot” or “in” celebrity and identify the jeans they’re wearing. It’s like a never ending Oscar parade!

The most popular no doubt seem to be Page Premium Denim and Seven Jeans.

I have seen a few brands that have just fallen of radar because they have not been able to keep their PR profile high enough. Sometimes though it is also because the denim itself doesn’t live up to the hype. After all, it still has to look good on YOU!

Jeans are naturally the most versatile of clothing today and with the constant advancements in design, fabric and fit it doesn’t seem like it will stop anytime soon.

For me it doesn’t matter who wears them, it just matters if it feels good to me or not. I’m a guy so I could care less if Brad Pitt is wearing Levi’s or Lee - I’ll still buy a no name brand and wear it for the next 6 months straight! I will take it off to wash though, bad smelling jeans are just…ugh!

Christie’s is going to be auctioning seven pieces of the fashion designer’s clothing and jewelry representing his career.

“What’s exciting about the collection is that you see the progression of his career. He was a real style-setter,” said Christie’s couture specialist Laura Leyfer.

All of the items are in excellent condition and are relatively inexpensive because they aren’t new designs and have been worn.

The chief designer of the YSL brand today is Stefano Pilati. I remember the days it used to be in the hands of Tom Ford and all the media frenzy he would cause with his collections. I haven’t been hearing much about the brand lately, maybe also because I’ve just not paid attention to the fashion scene much lately.

I think the timelessness of Yves’s creations will see the fashion house live on for many many years to come.

Which speaks volumes for the fashion industry, basically it is very hard to get into. I’ve been there and done that. When I found out about FashionSpace I wished this was around when I graduated.

“Our core is to try to help young designers break into the market&we’re looking at the tools to get them more sales,” Holly Bellm said.

23-year-old London fashion graduate Holly Bellm started FashionSpace last October and it is fast becoming to fashionistas what MySpace is to amateur musicians, with 20,000 members in 120 countries frequenting the site every day.

That’s an amazing initiative by Holly. If you are a new graduate or still studying fashion then make sure you bookmark this site and use it to start your career. You never know what could happen.

All the content is still there, it just looks different. Next up are the fashion resources, which I will probably begin doing so this month as well. I don’t think I’ll be done with them anytime soon though, so hang tight for that. There’s just so much information there!

The president’s wife is expected to attend as well, though it has not yet been made public as to what she will be wearing.

Armani has really come far in his career, starting off as a window dresser and building a $3 billion fashion empire. He certainly deserves it.

Details like pleated organza ruffles, floral corsages on one shoulder, fractal-like spiraling hand-cut floral trains, hand-pleating or asymmetrically draped necklines and asymmetrically placed bows gave a different edge to the traditional bridal silhouettes. The designs showed both luxury and modernism in wedding gowns. Something that is not very easily achieved.

Vera says -

“Making an entrance is important, but the exit is just as important, it offers even more opportunity for drama. For 50 percent of the wedding, the bride is viewed from the back, whether during the ceremony or for the first dance.”

I wonder if anybody makes any wedding gowns with denim? Well a quick search and I found this from this site called Sat’n Spurs -

I wonder how Vera would do it? Now that would look interesting to see, wouldn’t it!
