Hatters Happy About Princess Beatrice's Crazy Millinery

Filed under: ,

Possibly the most enduring image of the royal wedding between Prince William and his commoner bride, Kate Middleton, was the fanciful hat worn by Princess Beatrice, William's cousin. Gravity-defying and startling, the bow-shaped "sculptural" hat in a "delicate tea rose silk" designed for the princess by milliner Philip Treacy inspired derision, adoration, passionate defense and imitation.

The hat has been called ridiculous, crazy and even compared to the headgear of the ugly stepsisters in Disney's Cinderella. (Treacy, by the way, said his inspiration was "beauty and elegance," a rather oblique and obscure way of saying he thinks it's lovely, thank you very much.)

Here's the thing, though: This hat did its job. Not only did it give rise to a flurry of attention about Beatrice -- which perhaps has not been quite flattering -- it has also inspired a renewed interest in British millinery and, indeed, millinery worldwide. According to the Hat Gallery in London, "We're definitely expecting hats to start reappearing at weddings; sales have risen by up to 20% since the [royal] wedding."

Givenchy Haute Couture: Which Celeb Wore It Best?

Riccardo Tisci is one of the most buzzed about designers in the fashion industry right now?not only because he's immensely talented and is the number one contender t0 replace John Galliano at Dior, but also because celebrities really, really like to wear his clothes. In the last few months, not a single red carpet has gone by without one of Tisci's couture creations for Givenchy popping up on a major celebrity. (Who said couture was a dying art?) His haute couture collections for Fall 2010 and Spring 2011 were spectacular, and the whole world?in Hollywood and beyond?seems to have taken…

You might even say I'm a bit of a shoe whore, as I'll dabble in just about anything with a sole and a heel.

I've had a lot of requests for blush shoes over the past few weeks, and try as I might, I just couldn't pick one pair to call my favorite. Each of these shoes serves a different purpose: casual, dressy, hippie, conservative, high heel, flat, jeans shoe, dress shoe.

And I'm not saying that you need every one of them.

I'm just saying you don't have to be monogamous when it comes to nude shoes.

Who am I to judge?

It?s About Timing

Inadvertently, we created a stir on the topic of timing with our last post. And so we wanted to clarify our thoughts on calendar timing for Los Angeles Fashion Week.
We’ve LONG advocated an earlier time slot on the global fashion calendar for BOTH LA Fashion Week AND LA Market Week. We do like to see [...]

Camilla: trading kaftans for campfires

Posted in Fashion » Fashion Blog » Fashion Events » Fashion Parades Blog

For Camilla Franks, it all started during her actor training days when she designed costumes for her glaringly lengthy stage performances. "Firstly I did terrible plays and then I hated the costumes they made for me. It was so boring. No colour, no fun."

It was seven years ago when she was stereotyped for being a "hippie and a flamingo dancer". Today, with her brand Camilla, she has created an exceptional niche that still falls under the "gypsy" outlook. Albeit a luxurious gypsy.

This internationally acclaimed designer has done it all, from working in Los Angeles at the Grammy Awards to launching a charity-driven coffee table book that raised over AU$80,000 for UNIFEM. "We used the money raised from Women of the World [the book], and built a school in Lao. We're teaching women how to work with silk there. I have been on the most fascinating roller coaster ride. I've seen the good, the bad and the ugly," says Franks.

Ironically, Franks wasn't always enamoured by her infamous title of the Kaftan Queen. But her disapproval didn't last long. "When I first got that title, I was still trying to evolve as a designer and it really frustrated me. But now I'm really comfortable with it. At the end of the day, it brings me back to what I do best," she says.

To coincide with the debut of Camilla's autumn / winter 'Woodstock Collection' and to find out exactly what it is that the designer has done best for this new season, Fashionising.com sat down with Camilla Franks to discuss what she has for the Camilla girl this season, and what the future holds for the brand.
