Posts with tag launch

The Playboy empire is spreading -- aside from the nudie magazines and clothing, it's reaching out into fragrances, too. The ladies from The Girls Next Door attended a party in the penthouse of Manhattan's Hotel on Rivington to celebrate the launch last week, and shared some details about their favorite scents.

Just to be clear, we're not lusting after pop star Jesse McCartney -- we'll leave that to his teen fan base. He'd better be hoping that those fans get a decent allowance, though, because he's about to launch his first fragrance, Wanted.

Retail in China: it's all about the volume. Sir Philip Green, the owner of Topshop is all too aware of the potential profit once he gets there. Just to make sure he gets as much volume as possible, the rumor is that he asked Kate Moss to bring the lines she "designed" to China and be the face of the Topshop launch there.

This announcement comes in just a few weeks after we began hearing rumors that The Gloved One, Michael Jackson is working on a fashion line. Now, little sister Janet Jackson wants in on the money making biz too! She's going to be doing her own clothing line.

If you don't know who Zinedine Zidane is, you are missing out. Not only is he a fabulous soccer player, but he's hot. Because sometimes headbutting is hot. And it turns out the slightly violent futbol star has another side to him -- he's also into fashion, or at least watches.

In case you haven't had enough of the lovely miss Heidi Montag, she's going to be getting even more press these days -- her clothing line, Heidiwood for Anchor Blue, just launched. By the way, is that pretty much the worst name you've ever heard for a fashion line?

Versace launched their updated "revitalized" menswears collection exclusively at Barney's this past week. Donatella hosted the big night. Aside from playing in the Versace display window made of tinfoil, she also spent time mingling with all the random celebrities who showed up. I'm pretty sure the guest list was made up of basically any A-lister in New York at the time, regardless of (lack of) connections with the fashion world.

Woody Allen was there. He says he loves Versace sweaters. And in the "How I wish I could have been a fly on the wall" conversation of the night, sources say that he had a little chat with Gossip Girls hottie Leighton Meester (seriously, who names their child Leighton?!?). Leighton told Woodie, "Donatella is, like, kind of the sh*t." Why would you say that to Woodie Allen of all people?

Now let's get back to the topic at hand -- fashion. The creative director of Barney's, Simon Doonan said, "Every guy wants a moiré suit. He just may not have realized it yet."

Guys, you heard the man. You want a moiré suit. Go out and buy one now. Simon's sending you subliminal message.

Browse through the gallery to see celebs and fashion greats at the event. Seriously, you don't want to miss Stephon Marbury checking out Patti LaBelle's nearly 64 year old rack, do you?
