ROYAL TEA BAGS

Do you like tea? If you drink tea a couple of times a day then you definitely get bored form a usual design of a tea bag, Have a KATEA & WILLIAMS TEA!

A NEW BRITISH EXPERIENCE!


If, on the other hand, you are more conservative, feel free to "have a tea" with any of the members of the royalty. UNFORGETTABLE...

STARVING KATE MOSS BECOMES (EXPENSIVE) ART


Kate Moss Golden Statue By Marc Quinn
The artist said it cost about $2,250,000 to make it and it is prob also time-consuming, as it took him 18 months to create the piece. So.. I am guessing  around $10mill. (?)

From ZERO to HERO, RICK GENEST - The new muse of Lady Gaga & Formichetti


Introducing the man behind the tattoos - Rick Genest, a Canadian model known as Zombie Boy.

Covered in skeletal tattoos to make his body resemble a decomposing corpse, Lady Gaga's latest video co-star probably isn't the kind of man you'd take home to meet your parents.

The mysterious 25-year-old has shot to fame after displaying his macabre body art in Gaga's video for Born This Way and becoming the muse of Thierry Mugler and its creative director Nicola Formichetti.

Muse: Genest walked alongside Lady Gaga at Formichetti's debut catwalk show for Thierry Mugler last week


Genest, whose entire head and torso are covered in gory tattoos, seemed to come from nowhere - and it turns out Nicola Formichetti, Gaga's stylist, plucked him from obscurity.

Until January he was living on the streets of Montreal, where he was living as a 'bum', doing everything from window-cleaning to performing as a circus freak to pay for his next tattoo.

Now Genest is a catwalk star, modelling Thierry Mugler's latest collection for Paris Fashion Week.

Rotting away: Somehow Genest makes Lady Gaga look conservative

The self-described 'punk' is a well-known figure in the Quebec city, where he spent three or four years slowly inking his body, spending at least $7,000 on tattoos.


Art: Genest is using his entire body as a canvas

NO SMOKING DAY! (Too bad no one told Kate Moss) Louis Vuitton Catwalk A/W 2011/12 PFW



Kate Moss has never been one to follow rules and yesterday was no exception when she ignored the ban - and No Smoking Day - and lit up on the catwalk. Walking for Louis Vuitton at Paris Fashion Week, Kate indulged her bad habit and proved she's still got it in a pair of tight hot pants and bondage-style lace-up boots.

Moss, who returned to the runway after a three year break, was the perfect choice to close the fetish-themed show and had the crowd cheering as she theatrically blew out smoke.

GALLIANO'S ANTI-SEMITIC REHAB


Why Galliano imploded: The fashion king is now in rehab fighting his obsession with his own Jewish roots

The Meadows rehabilitation facility in Arizona is a long way from the frenetic hothouse of Paris Fashion Week — and not just in distance. Located in the desert, 50 miles north-west of Phoenix, the rehab’s residents follow a strict timetable designed to help them conquer their addictions. The worldly concerns of the catwalk shows in the French capital have little place here.

Yet one character does link the two. For in the small hours of Thursday morning, a rather frail-looking, pale-faced figure with a pencil moustache is understood to have checked into The Meadows (previously host to Elton John and Donatella Versace) presumably to receive treatment for his problems. His name is John Galliano, and he left in his wake panic-stricken preparations for yesterday’s Christian Dior womenswear autumn/winter catwalk show. And panic would describe it. For no A-listers turned up to yesterday’s Dior show although American Vogue editor Anna Wintour (with doughter- Bee) and fashion guru Suzy Menkes made it to the front row, while anti-fascist campaigners demonstrated outside following Galliano’s alleged anti-Semitic rant last month.

Had the events of the past two weeks unfolded differently, he would have been rounding off the show with a theatrically costumed solo appearance to the wild applause of his audience. As the House of Dior’s creative director, Galliano’s flamboyant final flourish had become something of a signature.

But no more. For, as we now know, 50-year-old Galliano is no longer employed by the fashion-house, fired this week from his £4 million-a-year post at the label’s creative helm, following those alleged racist outbursts in a Paris bar, La Perle, on three separate occasions. He is accused on one of them of calling an innocent bystander a ‘dirty Jew’, before shouting ‘I love Hitler’ in another.

These were no casual allegations: this week, police confirmed that Galliano would face court proceedings in Paris on at least one claim of making racist insults. If found guilty, he could be sentenced to six months in jail.
