Kate Middleton has officially stepped outside of her fashion comfort zone!
In London Friday, the Duchess of Cambridge worked the red carpet at the BOA Olympic Concert dress in a stunning emerald Jenny Packham pleated gown.
The design, which featured a low-cut neckline and a sheer, lace back, is accented with a crystal-adorned ribbon that cinched the royal’s waist. Take a look:
The 30-year-old fashion icon paired the breathtaking dress with Jimmy Choo “Vamp” platform glitter sandals and a matching Jenny Packham bespoke clutch.

Brad Pitt: The New Face of Chanel No. 5!
None other than Hollywood leading man, fiance of Angelina Jolie and father of six Brad Pitt was just announced as the new face of Chanel No. 5.
He does have a pretty nice face, as guys go.
Brad, who has to be thrilled about President Obama’s support for gay marriage, was confirmed by the French fashion house earlier this morning.
The Academy Award-nominated star is reportedly shooting his first ad sometime this week in London, where the couple is considering moving.
Pitt joins the likes of Nicole Kidman, Vanessa Paradis, Audrey Tautou, Ali MacGraw and Lauren Hutton as the face of the

Vidal Sassoon, Hairstylist and Fashion Icon, Dies at 84
Renowned hair stylist and fashion icon Vidal Sassoon, known for creating the “bob” style and for a line of consumer products that bear his name, has died.
Sassoon passed away today from an unspecified illness at his home on Mulholland Drive in Hollywood. Family members were by his side. Vidal was 84.
He was reportedly diagnosed with leukemia in 2009. It’s unclear what role the cancer played in Sassoon’s death. His official cause of death is natural causes.
When Sassoon picked up his shears in the 1950s, styled hair was typically curled, teased, piled high and shellacked into place. Then

Michelle Obama Fashion Watch: First Lady Shines at White House Correspondents’ Dinner
President Barack Obama joked at the White House Correspondents’ dinner this weekend that an alarming percentage of poll respondents prefer his better half.
Self-deprecation aside, First Lady Michelle Obama more than holds her own, and not just when it comes to besting Ellen at pushups or being a fashion icon.
For Saturday’s Hollywood-meets-Washington bash, President Obama’s wife, 48, looked regal yet flirty in a strapless paisley organza gown by Naemm Khan:
The mother of two accentuated the dress by wearing her hair in loose, tousled waves, accessorized with gold hoop earrings. As always,

In addition to discussing this very worthy cause Monday, the First Lady and Ellen rehashed their push-up contest from earlier this year. Take a look:

Katy Perry in Teen Vogue: Blue About Fame
Teen Vogue features the lovely Katy Perry on its new cover. The pop singer says she’s already tired of being famous … but it’s just the price of creating.
A heavy price, no doubt. The 27-year-old despises the massive fame her success has brought her, calling it “disgusting by-product” of what she does.
The singer has endured heavy scrutiny after the end of her marriage to Russell Brand, and admits she’s sick of critics commenting on her personal life.
She tells Teen Vogue, “I’m tired of being famous already! But I’m not tired of creating. Fame is, I think, just a disgusting by-product of

Jennifer Lopez Stylist on Revealing Oscar Dress: No Nip Slips Here!
J. Lo? More like J WHOA!
That was the reaction many Oscar viewers had last night when they watched Jennifer Lopez saunter out to the stage and stand alongside Gwyneth Paltrow to present… the awards for something.
We can’t exactly remember, considering the distraction of Lopez’s cleavage, as demonstrated both by her Academy Awards dress (left) and the gown she donned at the Vanity Fair post-party (right).
Now, Mariel Haenn – the stylist for this American Idol judge – has come out and tried to silence talk that his client exposed her nipples to an audience of millions.
“The Oscar dress was

Academy Awards Fashion Face-Off: The Dictator vs. Brad Pitt
In this edition of THG’s Academy Awards Fashion Face-Off series, The Dictator, played by Sacha Baron Cohen, takes on Brad Pitt. Didn’t see that one coming, we know.
Pitt was nominated for his lead role in Moneyball. Cohen was invited to the show because of his role in Hugo, but his red carpet trip was infamously cut short.
That’s because he showed up in character as Admiral General Aladeed, his character from The Dictator, and dumped Kim Jong-Il’s ashes on Ryan Seacrest.
Before getting escorted away by security, Aladeed did look quite dashing posing for the cameras with a couple of hot

Can Jean Dujardin make it a clear Oscars sweep over George Clooney?
The Artist star became the first French man to ever win Best Actor at last night’s Academy Awards, defeating such major Hollywood names as Clooney and Brad Pitt in the process. But we’re giving George a chance at revenge.
While he was attached at the hip to date Stacy Keibler for most of the night, Clooney did get away briefly on the red carpet to pose by himself. Study his dapper look below, compare it to his closest competitors and then vote on the most stylist stud now:

Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show Creator on Kate Upton: Not Impressed!
Plenty of people are impressed by Kate Upton’s Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue cover. The shot-callers at Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show are not among them.
It’s unclear when and how the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show became a paragon of class, but evidently, it considers itself as much … and is not enamored with Kate.
“We would never, ever use [Kate Upton],” Sophia Neophitou, a stylist, fashion editor and the brains behind the Victoria’s Secret event told the New York Times.
“She’s like a Page 3 girl,” she said, referring to the scantily clad voluptuous women featured in The Sun, a

Kim Kardashian: All Natural in Allure?
The natural position of Kim Kardashian is standing up tall, chest out, on the red carpet of Las Vegas.
So we suppose the reality star has a point when she blogs that she appears on this month’s cover of Allure with a “very low-key, natural look!” See what she means here:
Kardashian is supposedly mascara free for the shot, as makeup artist Fulvia Farolfi tells the magazine that “Kim is a natural beauty. So we wanted to show her as naturally as possible, like she had just come back from the beach.”
Ummm… by definition, doesn’t that mean they made her up? We somehow doubt this is the way Kim

Can she continue her unbeaten streak with a win in this style showdown? That remains to be seen, though the British songstress looked great on the red carpet.
Adele has won praise for the fact that – like Swift – she succeeds on talent and sets a good example for fans by not parading around in no pants. So to speak.
