			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Former British glamour model, entrepreneur and best-selling author Katie Price has been garnering a lot of public interest lately following the launch of her latest book titled “Paradise.” This week, she was seen at her sexy glory once more in the premiere night of the film “<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1320253/" target="_blank">The Expendables</a>” in United Kingdom. The film stars a number of high profile action stars in Hollywood such as Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger.</p>
<p>The reality television star was strutting her stuff at the red carpet in an almost see-through black dress that could pass off as a <a href="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2010/08/09/article-0-0ABE33F9000005DC-736_634x915.jpg" title="Lingerie" target="_blank">lingerie</a> last Monday. She paired it off with black lingerie heels stockings which looks tight and further accentuated her curvy body.<br />
Last week during the launch of her book, Price wore a sexy lingerie top with the word “Paradise” emblazoned across her rather generous breasts.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Prominent fashion designer <a href="http://www.akira.com.au/" target="_blank">Akira Isogawa</a> made headlines this week when he defected from department store giant David Jones following sexual harassment cases filed against the latter’s officials recently.</p>
<p>Isogawa’s collection has been sold exclusively via David Jones for the past decade. However, his new collection will now be part of Myer’s, a rival company.</p>
<p>Former David Jones publicist, Kristy Fraser-Kirk, filed last Monday a record $37 million sexual harassment suit against the company and its former chief executive Mark McInnes.</p>
<p>Isogawa reportedly phoned Myer personally and asked that he be given a slot in the department store’s scheduled collections launch. A few days earlier, the <a href="http://tvnz.co.nz/world-news/fashion-designer-s-dj-comments-falls-flat-3684097" title="David Jones" target="_blank">fashion designer</a> was seen attending the David Jones collection launch.</p>
<p>In an interview, Isogawa said that he’s currently in talks with Myer with this partnership but refused to divulge more information as nothing’s final yet.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There has been a rather lot of brouhaha over the dress worn by Victoria’s Secret model <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miranda_Kerr" title="Miranda Kerr" target="_blank">Miranda Kerr</a> at her wedding to “Lord of the Rings” star Orlando Bloom. Besides having a lot of attention from possessing a great body and face (which is admired by men and women alike), the dress itself raised a lot of eyebrows.<br />
<img src="http://gossip.whyfame.com/files/2010/06/orlando_bloom_miranda_kerr.jpg" alt="Kerr &amp; Bloom" width="225" align="right" height="285" />The question remains as to who created her dress, as some have viewed it as one of the best looking wedding gowns on the Hollywood scene in a while. One Australian newspaper is claiming to have gotten an exclusive scoop on this hot topic.</p>
<p>The source revealed that four wedding gowns designed by <a href="http://www.collettedinnigan.co.uk/" title="Fashion designer" target="_blank">Collette Dinnigan</a> were flown from Sydney to the U.S. last week. All four dresses were said to have been worn by Kerr during the wedding and the reception that followed.</p>
<p>The couple has been together since 2006 and Kerr was seen sporting the engagement ring last month. The sudden announcement of the wedding left people wondering whether Kerr is pregnant but no one from the couple’s end has yet confirmed such rumours.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fashion designer <a href="http://www.julienmacdonald.com/#/home" mce_href="http://www.julienmacdonald.com/#/home">Julien Macdonald</a> is currently on hot waters after he was quoted saying that plus size models don’t have a place in the modeling industry, stressing that these models would not find success in this line of work.</p>
<p>The fashion icon, who received an OBE for his contribution in the industry, is currently a judge on “<a href="http://www.livingtv.co.uk/shows/bntm5/index-new.php" mce_href="http://www.livingtv.co.uk/shows/bntm5/index-new.php">Britain’s Next Top Model</a>.”</p>
<p>Macdonald said that the fashion industry should not accept models with sizes above size eight. He added that in the show, it would be a joke if a plus size girl wins the competition. He said that making these models win would only lead to disaster because they will be looked down in the industry after the competition. </p>
<p>“Britain’s Next Top Model” will be back in television screens this month with supermodel Elle Macpherson hosting the show.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Actress <a href="twitter.com/nicolerichie">Nicole Richie</a> believes that more people are not making enough effort about their appearances.</p>
<p>The reality TV star has turned fashion designer and is currently working for a new line of winter fashion.</p>
<p>The mother of two stressed that she’s making sure that her current undertaking does not interfere with her <a href="http://www.motherhood.com/">motherhood</a>. She admitted that it is hard to juggle her schedule but she gets by.</p>
<p>Richie launched her winter and autumn fashion line for 2010 to 2011 last week. This also marked the official launch of her business named <a href="http://www.shopkitson.com/index.php?...HOUSE...HARLOW+1960">House of Harlow 1960</a>.<br />
The designer said that she got a great amount of inspiration for her new collection by observing people. She also said that she created great designs from unexpected moments.</p>
<p>The young mother added that she came up with a new design when she saw a woman wearing a great-looking hat. She was inspired with the design that she came up with a great looking bag out of that inspiration.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thirty-three students from the prestigious <a href="http://www.rca.ac.uk/">RCA School of Fashion</a>, the world’s only wholly postgraduate fashion school, presented their creations to the press and industry bigwigs via a special fashion show. The designers showcased menswear and womenswear for the experts to scrutinize and determine whether there’s marketability behind these items.</p>
<p>The menswear creations were reportedly inspired from “Crash,” a novel by J.G. Ballard. The clothing were inspired by the hip-hop culture among others. The designers have silver and copper metal yarns that were woven into tailored suits.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, the womenswear creations include robes and tunics that were designed with several porcupine quills, silk and handmade silk roses.</p>
<p>Other accessories have been presented during the fashion show with items made out of <a href="http://www.silicone.co.uk/">silicone</a>, <a href="http://www.bambooclothing.co.uk/">bamboo </a>and <a href="http://www.theultimateleather.co.uk/">leather</a>.</p>
<p>Former Vogue Editor Madge Garland founded the RCA’s Fashion department in 1948. Some of the popular graduates of the school are Bill Gibb, Antony Price and Christopher Bailey.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>More than forty retailers of <a href="http://www.fashionshop.co.uk/">fashion handbags</a> and other apparels have agreed to limit the use of dangerous lead in the products and other fashion accessories.</p>
<p>The companies have agreed to set a new industry standard for the use of lead in the products. This is part of the $1.7 million legal settlement filed last Tuesday in Alameda County Superior Court. The lawsuit was filed last year by the Center for Environmental Health based on Oakland.</p>
<p>The environmental advocacy organization discovered high levels of lead when it tested several items of fashion handbags, purses and wallets bought at popular retail outlets in San Francisco. Some <a href="http://www.bravissimo.com/products/clothing/coats-and-jackets">jackets </a>were discovred too.</p>
<p>The retailers that participated in this settlement include Target, JC Penny, Kohl’s, Macy’s, Kmart, Victoria’s Secret and Sears.</p>
<p>Studies have been conducted wherein lead exposure can lead to health problems.</p>

<p>Film critics have no choice but to become fashion critics themselves as they watched the movie “<a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/lsquosexrsquo-tops-international-box-office-1993684.html" title="Sex and the City 2" target="_blank">Sex and the City 2</a>” for reviews. The British press could not help but comment on the clothing worn by the film stars as two and a half hour long film was played.</p>
<p>Notable critics in the US are being careful about noticing the fashion statements of the stars, admitting that they don’t have much knowledge about the business. However, the British media could not help but notice the overly dressed stars in moments that only need simply clothes and not fashion clothes.</p>
<p>One critique said that there was a scene on the film where <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Jessica_Parker" title="Sarah Jessica Parker" target="_blank">Sarah Jessica Parker</a>’s role was watching a film with her husband on her evening gown. She added that the stars were seemingly overdressed in most occasions – trying to keep up with the film’s reputation as a fashion trendsetter.</p>

<p class="MsoPlainText">The <a href="http://www.asa.org.uk/">Advertising Standard Authority (ASA)</a> has ordered designer label Louis Vuitton to pull out its ad of fashion handbags due to a number of complaints they received about the said advert.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">According to reports, the latest advertisement of <a href="http://www.louisvuitton.com/">Louis Vuitton</a> featured a picture of a woman stitching the handle of one of its latest handbags, implying that the <a href="http://www.LouiseHandbags.info/Vuitton">fashion handbags</a> were made by hand – which is not the case.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The company officials defended the ad saying that the image was a homage to craftsmanship and that it took several years to develop new and creative handbags.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">They added that they hired models instead of their employees to avoid bias.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Despite the explanation, ASA believes that the ads breached rules of governing truthfulness because it does mislead customers into believing that the items were actually handmade.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New'">An ASA official said that they considered that most customers would think that way about the ad.</span></p>
