He's credited with introducing fashion looks on movie stars<br /> and celebrities. The article is loaded with pix. </p> <p>I have no interest in seeing red carpet wear. Or maybe it's today's red carpet wear. :)<br /> I'm partial to a dignified awards look but OTOH I do like the confectionary Marchesa<br /> looks. </p> <p>What I really want to see are the candids of celebrities just living their lives - though how candid can any shot be when they know they're going to be photographed and perhaps plan their outings accordingly for publicity. I also am interested in their<br /> dressy daywear - very hard to glimpse. Perhaps not enough awards are given<br /> out at charity luncheons. </p> <p>The reason I like the "ordinary" clothes is that my own relationship to clothing is<br /> very cinematic/role playing. I don't ever really feel the clothes are "me" but part of<br /> a dress up game I'm playing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398526 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 16:14:16 +0000 Elly 398526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Uh-- I guess my only plug for actresses as models is that often times they are more voluptuous than professional models. Even though she is short and I am taller, I have a lot more in common body-type-wise with Jessica Simpson than I do with most models, and therefore have a greater sense of how I would look in a similar look or the pieces she is modeling. I have a great imagination--- but sometimes even I can't put "mental breasts" on ladies that have none and would look like they were smuggling fruit under their jumpers if they did. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398520 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 16:08:13 +0000 Mo 398520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My BF just remarked night before last about Jen Aniston on a cover. He wondered just how much she makes doing it. I remarked the actresses have taken over models' jobs slowly but surely. Revlon, Cover Girl etc is now J Lo and Drew Barrymore, etc etc. BUT, the models have tried to act since forever also. Guess everyone wants what's on the other side of the fence lol. I agree with whomever said one slim, pretty faced lady or another, it doesn't really make a difference!<br /> I am also not much for the ball gowns on red carpets, except for the fashion dissection later by Joan ha ha! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398488 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 15:43:17 +0000 rae 398488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't be bothered to care either way. I like the idea of shorter women getting some glossy action, but then I remember that they're all photoshopped to the moon and back, anyway. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398482 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 15:36:45 +0000 chewyspaghetti 398482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Having a celebrity model for a fashion layout really doesn't bother me. I get more perturbed by their street style photos usually. I will see a celebrity pic, and then a "get the look for less" spread, and think "Why are we trying to emulate that look?" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398473 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 15:30:53 +0000 Anonymous 398473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not a fan of fashion spreads in any case since they are often over-styled and not useful in real life. And I am a person that worked in retail print advertising for years and years! So whether its a model or some starlet, I don't really look at those "fashion" spreads for the fashion. I do enjoy looking at the photos as art....</p> <p>If I want fashion inspiration, I look at bloggers and "street fashion" articles where I can adapt ideas to my real life. </p> <p>Many starlets do modelling as PR for their acting careers. And many models cross over to acting. There are no real boundaries any more. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398466 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 15:20:14 +0000 Beth 398466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It depends entirely on the celebrity:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398462 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 15:18:12 +0000 geetha 398462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yeah the models were more fun. but I guess celebs appear on those covers because that's what the magazine editors want. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398456 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 15:11:42 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 398456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I miss the days when professional models were on the cover of fashion mags. I honestly am so turned off by seeing celebs on covers. I can't buy the mags fast enough on the exceedingly rare occasion when they feature an actual model. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398445 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 15:06:35 +0000 April 398445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also like seeing what certain celebrities really wear. What I don't like is seeing a photo shoot where they wear others' clothes as if they were models. </p> <p>Somehow this irks me. They have the fame, the glamour, the income from their music and/or acting careers -- must they take the spotlight away from professional models as well? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398438 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 14:58:51 +0000 taylor 398438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love to see what / how celebs dress up") </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398435 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 14:55:58 +0000 Angie 398435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a few celebrities in my heart who I really like so I also like to look at what they wear: Cate, Helen, Kate, Emma, Gwen, Kate (lots of Kates!!! You can guess which Kates they are). Other than that, I am not interested in celebrity fashion unless it's on the red carpet. I love ball gowns </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398388 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 13:36:29 +0000 rosee 398388@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do like to take a peek at their "WIWs" (street style, so to speak) but I am not really a fan of styled shoots -- like those are realistic. I'd rather look at bloggers' outfits than celebrity ones, since celebs usually have stylists or too much discretionary income and they tend to be quite faddish. I appreciate the average person's style more. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398385 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 13:32:56 +0000 MsMary 398385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have no particular opinion about it, I guess. One ridiculously thin and beautiful young woman is much like another for that purpose, whether she models full time or as a sideline to an acting career. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrity-fashion-are-you-a-fan-or-not#post-398383 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 13:30:13 +0000 April 398383@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The trend toward featuring celebrities in fashion magazines honestly leaves me cold. </p> <p>I don't mind glimpsing a celebrity's actual wardrobe, but dressing up actresses for fashion shoots? Not a fan, and I just don't get it. I mean, do models show up on movie sets asking to play leading roles? </p> <p>I'm sure I'm in the minority or this wouldn't be so popular. What do you think of this practice? </p>
