Runway Look of the Day: Alexander Wang

Chris Moore/Getty Images
Alexander Wang's Fall 2010 collection debuted with a pinstriped blazer and micromini paired with black chenille thigh-high leggings. The look was so sexy because even though the model was covered up, you caught a little slice of thigh when she walked. I always favor the mix of menswear fabrics with something a bit provocative.

Rihanna Rocks Custom Looks For New Video

Courtesy of Def Jam Records
Rihanna looked to bold ensembles with an ‘80s twist for her new video, “Rude Boy.” “Ri wanted a colorful dancehall vibe to go with the attitude and feel of the song,” explains stylist Mariel Haenn, who collaborated with fellow stylist Rob Zangardi to create a few pieces including a top made from vintage records (at left) and a black-and-white graphic body suit. “It was custom made,” says Haenn of the one-piece, which made quite the statement when paired alongside a live zebra. “We hand-drew the lines on a mannequin and hired a textile painter to copy the drawing in life-size scale.”

Fall Trend to Try Now: White Tights

Courtesy of Imaxtree
Black tights are being traded for a new, lighter leg for Fall 2010, thanks to the chic winter white tights spotted on the runways at Thakoon and BCBG. The trick to making white tights sophisticated is wearing them with dresses and cozy knits in neutral shades like taupe, caramel and gray. Add a slouchy suede boot for a perfect finishing touch.

Agyness Deyn's Supermodel Save

Frazer Harrison/Getty Images
Two runway spills in towering Burberry heels didn't stop Agyness Deyn from strutting her stuff at last night's Fashion for Relief Haiti show! After the first stumble, the supermodel smiled and laughed as the sold-out crowd cheered her quick recovery. When she slipped again, Deyn took the pair off and happily walked the rest of the runway barefoot. She later tweeted, "1st show of fashion week! Took a tumble! Got up! Fell again. Should have stayed down the 1st time. Twice! WTF! Ouch my knees!"

Gwen Stefani Dishes on Blizzards, L.A.M.B. and Tough-Girl Chic

Brian Zak/Sipa Press
"It's been a crazy week," exhaled Gwen Stefani hours before yesterday's L.A.M.B. presentation at Milk Studios. After a blizzard threw her design team for a loop, the superstar turned the frenzy into a fun show filled with her line's signature mix of tough-girl chic. "I had a guy driving 7 hours from Montreal last night to bring me 5 samples," she told us. "The combination of all that chaos got us to be really creative." Now that her first fall show is behind her, Stefani continues to focus on her full plate of projects, which include fragrances, jewelry and of course, more fashion. "I can't wait to move onto the next collection," she said. "That's what I love about fashion-it keeps moving!"

Stars Remember Alexander McQueen

After the news broke of Alexander McQueen's death, the designer's celebrity friends and fans spoke out. "He was talented well beyond his years," said Sarah Jessica Parker(at left with McQueen at the Met's Costume Institute gala in 2006) in a statement. "There has never been anyone like him. And there simply never will be." Victoria Beckham also expressed her grief: "He made all he touched beautiful and will be desperately missed." Some stars jumped on Twitter to share their memories. "Alexander invited me to my very 1st fashion show (his in London)," tweeted Janet Jackson. "We lost a True Genius."

"You'll have healthier meals, less stress and spend less money if you have everything ready to go," says Kaehler, who shows clients how to prepare a week's worth of healthy, organic meals in just an hour and a half.

Kaehler called her most recent Set-Up, with Rebecca Romijn, Amber Valetta, Angie Harmon and Julie Moran, "Cooking for a Cause" because it benefited Haiti.

Lady Gaga Kicks Off New York Fashion Week

Mike Coppola/FilmMagic; Larry Busacca/Getty; Kevin Mazur/WireImage
Lady Gaga launched fashion week with a spectacular performance-and a daring new look-at last night's amFAR charity gala. The pop sensation first wowed the star-studded crowd, which included Heidi Klum, Zoe Saldana and Chloe Sevigny, with her ivory bikini, captain's hat, towering stiletto boots and her powdered, pearl-encrusted face and body. Then, she hopped atop a rotating white piano and sipped a cup of tea before launching into the blush-inducing lyrics of her song "Future Love." The singer and newest face of MAC's Viva Glam campaign later returned to the stage to accept an award on behalf of Elton John and David Furnish and was praised by fellow MAC spokesperson Cyndi Lauper for her philanthropic efforts.

Zoe Saldana gave us the scoop on her fashion week plans at last night's amFAR charity gala at New York's Cipriani 42nd St. What events are on the Avatar star's lineup? "The Prabal Gurung show on Saturday!" she exclaimed. "We've been friends for years. I'm like, oh my God, he's only been out for a year and he's already showing at the Tents. Then I'm hosting a party for MyFDB.com." After fashion week, Saldana is off to the Oscars, where Avatar is nominated for Best Picture. "Being able to be there to support other artists-I think it's an amazing thing," she said. The always stylish actress, who was decked in olive-print Louis Vuitton, has yet to choose an Oscar dress.

Sneak Peek: Narciso Rodriguez's eBay Collection

Paul Cruz
Narciso Rodriguez's capsule collection for eBay launches on February 15, but we got a sneak peek at some of the pieces to hit the designer's special boutique. We love the python printed top (right, $70) and denim skirt ($150) and the red matte jersey dress ($250), but our favorite piece from the collection has to be the two-toned reversible trench (left, $350)-perfect for a spring day. Pair all of the above with chic black espadrilles ($450) from Rodriguez's regular collection, which eBay shoppers will get the first dibs to purchase.

Designers Tweet About Fashion Week Stress

Designers do most of their work behind the scenes, but now thanks to Twitter we're privy to the stress and last minute disasters they endure in order for the shows to go on. "We are tracking my shoes like crazy. I need my shoes for the show in 4 days!" tweeted Catherine Malandrino, whose runway heels are somewhere in Italy. Max Azria knows the feeling: "Anyone seen the carton of our runway shoes that were lost in shipment from Brazil?...Anyone?" Christian Siriano tweeted, "today was a crazy day of fittings, fittings and more fittings then filming with Veronica webb, im ready for it to be show time," while Chris Benz tried to see the brighter side of the blizzard in N.Y.C. "Two snow-fittings down! These girls are really truckin it through this weather!!!" the designer said.

Courtesy of MAC
Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper turned up at Lucky Cheng's in New York City to launch their joint campaign as the new faces of MAC's AIDS Fund and celebrate their new lipsticks: Viva Glam Gaga and Viva Glam Cyndi. 100% of the selling costs of the $14 lipsticks, a bright blue pink and a light coral red, goes to the MAC Aids Fund, which supports those affected by the disease. "I've been wearing MAC since I was 10 years old," Lady Gaga said in a statement. "This is more than just makeup. Anything I can do to help raise money for HIV/AIDS awareness-that's what I'm here for." The campaign was also an opportunity for the two icons to finally join forces. amp#91;Cyndi"amp#93; has such a beautiful spirit. She gave me some pointers at the VIVA GLAM shoot," said Gaga. And how did Miss Lauper feel? "Lady Gaga is the undisputed breakout star of the year and I have been cheering for her," she said. "We share a passion for fashion and music and performance.

Olympic Ice Skater Taps Vera Wang for Costumes

Courtesy of Vera Wang; Jemal Countess/WireImage
Vera Wang has been tapped to design five costumes for Olympic figure skater Evan Lysacek to wear at the Vancouver games. The designer, a former competitive skater herself, hit the ice with Lysacek before creating the looks, which include a charcoal gray feathered outfit and an ensemble made with breathable wrapped silk. "You have to... look good, be costumed and stay to the music," Wang told WWD. "It’s kind of your worst nightmare as a designer." Lysacek won't be the first Olympic figure skater to wear Wang on the ice-Olympic medalists Nancy Kerrigan and Michelle Kwan have also sported her designs.

Beyonce and Alicia Keys lit up the streets of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to shoot the music video for their duet "Put It in a Love Song." The talented pair didn't disappoint with their wardrobe-Beyonce worked the patterns in floral hotpants and an ikat-print jumpsuit, while Keys accented her black-and-white print dress with a bright orange hairpiece. A video in Rio isn't complete without a Carnival scene, where the songstresses donned elaborate headdresses and sashayed to the song's thumping drum beat.

Anne Hathaway Is Our March Cover Girl

David Slijper
She may be a major movie star, but Anne Hathaway is also shockingly down-to-earth. She's quite open and honest about how she sees herself, and her assessment is surprising: “I think I’ve got really weird features. I have very large features on a very small head. But, you know, I’m not going to beat myself up… I look like myself, and I think at the end of the day, as nice as pretty is, authenticity is more important,” she told us. Check out much more of Anne's exclusive interview (and see her in some of spring’s hottest fashion) in our March issue, on newsstands this Friday.

Big names in fashion and retail are taking to their Facebook pages, offering fans exclusive discounts, sneak peeks at new collections-even love advice! When Rachel Roy launched a limited-edition jewelry line created in collaboration with singer Estelle, a petal ring that was available exclusively to her Facebook fans sold out within hours. On Christian Louboutin 's page, you can check out what you'll be drooling over next season and search their global network of boutiques to track down sold out styles and sizes. In honor of Valentine's Day, Victoria's Secret offers the chance to create poetry using a love note-generating app and chances to score free gift cards. VS Supermodels Erin Heatherton and Candice Swanepoel even answered fans' questions about romance in a special online chat. Could social networking be the best thing that ever happened to customer service?

Designer Catherine Malandrino teamed-up with Mary J. Blige for a girl power T-shirt collection called FFAWN+ Catherine Malandrino. Named after the female empowerment charity that Blige founded in 2008, the tunics and off-the-shoulder tops feature hand-painted messages like "I'm Power" and "I'm Love." "Catherine has been a dear friend of mine for years and after she learned about FFAWN, she offered to create a collection that would celebrate being women, being strong and being free," Blige told WWD. The collection, which starts at $39, hits Catherine Malandrino stores and Bloomingdale's next week, and a portion of the proceeds benefits FFAWN.
