This morning, the Golden Globes nominations for 2011 were announced by Josh Duamel, Blair Underwood and Katie Holmes; and with them the official start to the 2011 awards season. For film, the Golden Globes are seen as a predictor of Oscar success (at least nomination wise). For television? Well, there’s an open bar which normally makes for a pretty entertaining ceremony. Of course, we can’t forget the red carpet fashion, so without further ado here are the nominees who will probably be on the receiving end of some expensive designer swag next year.

Alice in Wonderland’s Got Style http://198.46.88.49/style/fashion/alice-in-wonderlands-got-style http://198.46.88.49/style/fashion/alice-in-wonderlands-got-style#respond Fri, 12 Mar 2010 02:50:33 +0000 http://198.46.88.49/?p=9753 New York City is a fashion mecca and window shopping is practically unavoidable. One of the most enjoyable pleasures of elaborate window displays are the ones inspired by our culture.
Alice in Wonderland Store Windows

Store window photos by Hollywood Crush

This week Tim Burton’s new rendition of ‘Alice in Wonderland’, starring Johnny Depp, was released in theaters and this gave big name retailers a fun muse for this season’s windows.

The much-anticipated film is one that generations of people can relate to from childhood, appealing to a large demographic. The scenery from the movie (mostly taking place in foliage as Alice is shrunken by magical mushrooms in the forest) is the perfect backdrop to display all that spring has to offer. The scenes are whimsical and magical, truly capturing the fairy-tale essence of the out-of-this-world story.

Store windows aren’t the only translation into fashion the film has inspired. New ‘Alice’ inspired  jewelry, footwear and apparel are surfacing all over the globe, as well as fashion events from Paris to New York. Numerous couture designers have admitted to using the film for inspiration in designing this season’s collections and you can catch Wonderland influenced offerings in everything from shoes to nail polish. {Real Style Network}

Tom in Wonderland http://198.46.88.49/style/jewelry/tom-in-wonderland http://198.46.88.49/style/jewelry/tom-in-wonderland#respond Fri, 11 Dec 2009 06:50:51 +0000 http://198.46.88.49/?p=7817 6385622892Coming next spring, three of the world’s fanciest dreamers will come together to bring us a collaboration that is worth diving through a rabbit hole for: for Disney forthcoming digital 3-D remake of Alice in Wonderland, directed by Tim Burton (Edward Scissorhead, Corpse Bride, etc), the fantasy castle has tapped jewelry designer Tom Binns, known for his Dada-influenced aesthetic, to design a collection of jewelry based on the movie’s characters and events. The bijoux, to be sure, are nothing resembling movie-related merchandise you get from a purchase of the Happy Meal. The limited-edition collection, ranges from $1000-$1500 – think Mad Hatter-inspired miniature broken teacup choker (shown here). For Binns’ favorite villain, the Red Queen, expect red lacquered hearts interspersed between little pins and thorns in the form of a necklace. Lest you think that the collaboration is only for the trust fund set, look for a lower-priced line, Tom Binns for Disney Couture, to be sold in the designer’s flagship in New York and selected boutiques around the world.

Karl Dynasty http://198.46.88.49/style/fashion/karl-dynasty http://198.46.88.49/style/fashion/karl-dynasty#respond Mon, 07 Dec 2009 16:31:09 +0000 http://198.46.88.49/?p=7528 Chanel prefall '10Fashion’s umber-active mind, Karl Lagerfeld, took us on a fantastically imaginative (and financially sound) turn in Shanghai last week with his latest Chanel pre-fall 2010 collection. With the iconic Shanghai TV-tower as the backdrop, Lagerfeld presented a stunning collection rich with Shinto-Franco sartorial cultural exchanges. Based on a fictional dream of Coco Chanel time-traveling through Shanghai’s golden eras, a ‘la Alice in Wonderland, Lagerfeld even made a short film as a prelude to the occasion, complete with historical characters real and imagined played hilariously by his entourage, that was dramatically acted out over Huangpu River.

The real stars of the show, however, were the clothes: classic Chanel tweed suits received the traditional Chinese sartorial treatment based on cheongsam and qipao, juxtaposed with Last Emperor-worthy gold brocade; armor-like shingle embroideries adorned dresses and outerwear evocative of the terra-cotta army. Who knew that the famous Chanel quilted handbag was inspired by Chanel’s love of Chinoserie? Of interest were also this season’s popular thigh-high boots being made art-worthy to resemble exquisite Chinese porcelain vases and carved redwood furnitures. Certainly, the collection wouldn’t be fitting a Chinoserie-inspired one without a nod to the face of China, Chairman Mao, who, luckily, only reappeared in spirit in a pair of military green his and hers Mao tweed suits and comrade caps.

Lagerfeld definitely scored Chanel an epic victory of dynastic proportion with this latest audience-minded collection. The famous interlocking C’s (Chanel and China in this case?) might not be flying atop the Imperial Palace, but a Karl dynasty in the Imperial Kingdom might not be a far-fetched reality: Chanel is staking its capital strategically with a new store in Shanghai’s nexus of consumerism that is the Bund, further stoking the appetite and loyalty of a nation that is fast on Japan’s heels to take over the title of the world’s next biggest luxury consumer market.
