MADONNA turned 50 yesterday but the most successful female artist of all time shows no sign of slowing down.

Next Saturday she will kick off her Sticky and Sweet world tour at Wales’ very own Millennium Stadium. Featuring costumes from French fashion house Givenchy, it promises to be an entertainment extravaganza.

The singer has the knack of constant reinvention – from cone corsets, her sex book In Bed With Madonna and kissing Britney Spears, to becoming a children’s author and raising awareness about the devastating effects of HIV in Malawi.

And to date, she has sold a staggering 120 million albums and 40 million singles, putting her in the Guinness Book of World Records.

If you’re one of those people who hasn’t cleaned out your closets in decades, you could be in pretty good wardrobe shape: It’s time to pull out those bell bottoms and pop on those platform shoes!

Being “fashion forward” this fall means looking back, to the styles of the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s.

InStyle magazine’s Subira Shaw brought outfits harkening back to those days and discussed the new/old trends, and how you can dress “retro” at any price, whether you’re dressing up or down, on The Early ShowSaturday. Read the rest of this entry »

Naomi Campbell surprised crowds at London fashion week yesterday by taking to the catwalk for Kisa’a autumn/winter 2008/9 collection.
Campbell, 37, modelled an array of knits and prints in muted tones whilst showing off her slender silhouette; a far cry from the Dolce and Gabbana gown she wore in March 2007 whilst mopping floors in New York’s Sanitation Department as part of her community service order.

Supermodel Naomi Campbell has not modelled since Fashion for Relief, a charity show that raised £176,000 for victims of UK floods last September. Her unexpected tie-in with the low-key American/Italian design duo turned heads during London’s most infamous established design week. Read the rest of this entry »

At New York Fashion Week

New York Fashion Week, that biannual ritual of luxury and excess, came this week at an odd time.
Day after day, dour predictions about the economy have prompted warnings that consumers will be tightening their metaphorical belts. That makes it hard to put a fur coat on the runway and try to convince retailers, editors and stylists that the look will be all the rage next season.

Fashion insiders, though, are mixed on how to handle the grim financial news. While some have focused on go-anywhere basics and investment-worthy outerwear, others are working extra hard to find look-at-me trends or small bits of understated luxury that women might find worthy of their limited pocket money.

Michael Fink, fashion director at Saks Fifth Avenue, said he was focused on finding clothes women don’t already have in their closets.

“No basics — that’s my mantra. No basics,” Fink said. “The whole industry is looking at things with a fine eye at price points, but, as a luxury-brand store, we’re still interested in luxury products.”

On the runway so far this week, luxury has had a subdued presence in feather adornments, a little bit of fur, and beading or metallics added to knits and tweeds. There seems to be a concentrated effort to present more daywear instead of evening gowns, and the colors are fairly subdued, with a palette rooted largely in black, purple, dark blue, mustard yellow and green.
