Beauty Byte: BCBG Expands Empire

BellaSugar — Sat, 02 Feb 2008 08:00:22 -0800

BCBG founder and designer Max Azria has announced that he plans to take a shot at the beauty industry, joining the ranks of Stella McCartney and Prada before him. His products will be a part of the BCBG Max Azria brand, and will include a signature fragrance, makeup, and skincare lines, all tentatively scheduled for a 2009-2010 release date.

While Azria is still shopping around for his chief financial backer for the endeavor, he does admit that he is "meeting with a big company next month." Could perhaps yet another Arden-sponsored deal be in the works? Only time will tell, but given BCBG's modern and feminine take on clothing, I am looking forward to seeing what Azria comes up with. How about you?

Joss Stone has rocked some innovative hairstyles in the past, but she showed up at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in New York looking much more refined than usual. Today she was seen sporting two completely different looks, one when she strutted down the catwalk for The Heart Truth Red Dress Collection, and another in the front row at BCBG Max Azria. Which style do you prefer on the songstress?

New York Fashion Week, Fall 2007: Designers for Darfur

BellaSugar — Wed, 14 Feb 2007 05:54:55 -0800

On Friday evening, many, many designers, fashionistas, and do-gooders gathered together in New York City's Roseland Ballroom in support of trying to help end the atrocities of genocide taking place in Darfur. Since it was the finale of Fall 2007 Fashion Week, the theme of the event was a grand fashion show appropriately titled, Designers for Darfur.

The hosts of the evening were Lydia Hearst Shaw (shown) and Malcolm Harris of Mal Sirrah. The sponsor was Steve Madden who not only presented, but he also provided all of the footwear for the models.

The show was beautifully orchestrated and went off without a hitch. Some highlights were: a long flowing yellow dress with a jewel accent, a stunning floor length turquoise evening dress as well as the adorable children walking the runway. All of the clothing was created in Africa's colors; red, green, black/yellow.

All the items from the show are being auctioned off on ebay right now. All profits will go toward the Save Darfur Coalition so please check it out!
