Denim has probably been in
fashion since the day it was invented. People love practical, comfortable and
stylish things and denim is definitely characterized by these. Denim can be
sexy or elegant, edgy or tough – all depends on the character of the wearer. From James Dean to Kurt Cobain, all superstars
love a cool pair of jeans.

Diane von
Furstenberg is the subject of a new book
The iconic
designer is the basis for writer Camilla Morton's latest fashion fairy tale
memoir series, which is this time a twist on the classic story, 'The Emperor's
New Clothes'. The book tells the story of two young girls - Diane (based on the
designer's life), and an Empress, who is struggling with her new royal duties.
Although Camilla wrote the story, Diane drew the illustrations - deciding on
the prints, colors and layout of each page.

Blahnik hates women in platform shoes
The
Spanish-born designer - whose creations are worn by the likes of Sarah Jessica
Parker and Kylie Minogue - often says he does not mind what shoes women chose
to wear, but he is not a fan of platforms on anyone. "I hate platforms.
The young girl who is a bit chubby, or whatever, she thinks platforms make her look
taller. But no, they just make her look weird”, he told The Guardian newspaper.
Do you agree with him?
