Amber Rose Strikes Back Against Slut Shaming

Amber Rose struck back against critics who attacked her ‘racy’ photos on Saturday. The artist, who is neither shy about her body nor her body, posted a photo of herself in lingerie in response to the haters. The caption read, “U Guys Love Slut Shaming Huh? Good. I feed off that shit. #HowtobeAbadBitch”.

The artist came under fire for posting revealing photos of herself, which caused critics to question her parenting capabilities. Critics who conveniently took shelter behind their computer screens called her out on being a bad mother to 2-year-old Taylor Thomaz…as if her dress had anything to do with her child rearing skills.



Women have notoriously been slut shamed based on what they wear, but why should women be penalized for feeling sexy and confident? Amber’s colleague and frenemy, Kim Kardashian, has also been criticized for wearing revealing clothing around her daughter North West––and Amber and Kim are just two of the countless women who are judged relentlessly everyday.



You call pushing a stroller in stilettos being a slut, I call it being a badass. I applaud Amber for standing up to the haters. Slut shaming is so 1800s.

Lady Gaga Underwhelms at Balenciaga


Lady Gaga sat front and center at the Balenciaga show at Paris Fashion Week on Friday, showing off two unique outfits in a single night. It’s not uncommon for the queen of shock pop to have many costume changes in a single night, but these outfit were rather shockless for the newly engaged singer songwriter.




She wore a tight black dress with a high slit up the centre, highlighting her lean and slender figure. She jazzed it up with an envy-inducing pair of pointed heels, while rocking a set of black leather gloves. The simple outfit was quite nice, despite it being surprise-less.

The second outfit the 28-year-old beauty wore was a metallic and silk embellished dress, which boasted a bodice accompanied by a long ill-fitted black skirt and the same heels from the previous outfit. This outfit was a bit of a hot mess, making it the only reason it stood out of the crowd.

Lady Gaga’s trademark over-the-top outfits were no where to be seen, and we have to wonder––is married life causing her to tone it down a notch?

Kanye and Lorde Kick it at Dior Show in Paris

Kanye West is known for making friends with all corners of the music industry, even the most obscure. In the same vein, Kanye is getting friendly with 18-year-old New Zealand singer and songwriter, Lorde. They were spotted posing for cameras outside the Christian Dior show at Paris Fashion Week.

The unlikely couple were said to refuse to smile for cameras and wore matching black ensembles. Lorde’s dress was actually a sequin number from designer Dior to match the show. Kanye has said in the past he hates to smile, and said that “not smiling makes me smile”, but as for Lorde, we think it’s just teenage angst.

Inside, Lorde cracked and opened up a grin from ear to ear when sitting next to Fifty Shades of Grey star, Dakota Johnson, and Hailee Steinfeld.

Kim Kardashian’s newly blonde hair was nowhere to be seen.

Balmain’s Creative Director Olivier Rousteing is Officially Insta-Famous


Known for his impeccable tailoring as much as his enviable cheekbones, Balmain’s Olivier Rousteing has officially reached insta-famedom. The French designer just surpassed 1 million followers today, making him the most followed French designer on the platform.

Olivier’s talent as one of the best and youngest creative directors the French fashion house has seen is not what has propelled him into his celebrity status, however. The designer said to WWD, “I’m young, I’m black, I’m a designer, I have famous friends, but I also eat hamburgers and have both feet on the ground. It’s real life and reality always excites people.”



He shows that he has “both feet on the ground” by posting selfies, snaps at the gym, and party pics just like the rest of us…that is, in between high fashion Balmain editorials, selfies with the A-list, and his occasional magazine cover.



At just 28 and with four years at Balmain under his belt, Rousteing is quickly becoming a celebrity in his own right. According to Quartz, “On a daily basis his photos connect with about as many eyes as Vogue magazine does each month. That’s influence.”

Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner Are BFFs and Taking Over Paris

Kendall Jenner has been pictured frolicking––and getting mobbed––all over Paris Fashion Week, but supermodel BFF Cara Delevingne has been nowhere in site…probably because she’s too busy cozying up with her new fling St. Vincent.

Never one to spend time alone, Kendall has filled her BFF void with up and coming It girl, Gigi Hadid. The two 19-year-olds are taking Paris Fashion Week by storm, hand-in-hand. The two opened the season at H&M’s runway on Day 1, and stole the show at Balmain the next.

After their runway success at Balmain, the two struck a pose together outside of Balmain’s post show dinner and after party and were seated next to each other at the dinner table.

No word if Cara is jealous yet, but with Gigi’s rising star status we wouldn’t blame her if she was.

Lupita Nyon’o’s Stolen Dress, Anticlimactic Conclusion

Featured Video

Lupita Nyong’o’s pearl dress fiasco has finally ended when Calvin Klein, the designer of the dress in question, decided not to press charges after the dress was recovered in a black garment bag…under a trash bag, under a counter, in the hotel it was stolen from.






The dress was taken two days after it’s Academy Awards red carpet debut on the shoulders of Nyong’o. The dress was nabbed from her room at The London Hotel in West Hollywood between 8 and 9pm. The dress was appraised at $150,000 and adorned with 6,000 natural white pearls. No reason was stated as to why Calvin Klein decided to drop charges and Lupita Nyong’o has stayed quiet during the entire debacle.

A Los Angeles sheriff’s department spokesperson said there were no suspects identified at the time the case was dropped.

According to TMZ, the dress’ thief told the site he had taken two of the pearls off the dress to Los Angeles’ garment district where they were appraised as worthless fakes. In the same hotel room as the dress that night was Nyong’o’s Oscars gift bag which was valued at $125,000. Fortunately for Nyong’o, the thief chose wrong.

Kim Kardashian Blonde and Braless

As if Kim Kardashian’s striking new do wasn’t enough, the starlet went all out last night in her version of the ‘Naked Dress’. Earlier the same day––and perhaps following in Khloe’s footsteps––Kim had the paparazzi in a frenzy for her newly platinum blonde hair. Kim rocked it slicked back in a wet look, and was spotted in the front row of Balmain.

Kim’s platinum blonde hair is a hit, and it appears hubby Kanye West thought so too as they were pictured together kissing, canoodling, and otherwise being lovey dovey. Kim later rocked her hair in a deep side part when she stepped out with Kanye in her revealing dress. See the photo below!

The TV personality wore a nude, see-through mesh dress. Kim was noticeably braless––and we approve. Once you move past the intentional nip slip, Kim’s outfit is on point and perfect for Paris Fashion Week.

Kendall Jenner Alive and Well in H&M Show at Paris Fashion Week

After falling sick in Milan and missing part of Milan Fashion Week, Kendall Jenner has returned to the catwalk at Paris Fashion Week yesterday. Jenner walked in H&M’s FW15 show in two outfits and looked as stunning as ever.

In attendance was Beyonce’s sister Solange Knowles, Mark Ronson and his wife Josephine De La Baume, Audrey Tatou, Karolina Kurkova, model Erin O’Connor and actress Virginie Ledoyen.

The co-star of Keeping Up With The Kardashians walked in 9 shows at New York Fashion Week, but was absent from most of Milan Fashion Week. She explained over Twitter that her absence was due to her illness.




Jenner’s been making headlines not only in New York, Paris, and Milan, but in London too, where she walked for Giles and was spotted in the front row at Topshop. Besides her runway escapades, Kendall has also been making headlines for the enemies she’s made along the way.

Supermodels Binx Walton and Lexi Boling attacked Jenner over Vogue Germany’s Instagram, but the supertrooper model didn’t even break a sweat when she had to share the catwalk with Walton.

Kendall is rumored to be in more shows at Paris Fashion Week, including Balmain and Vivienne Westwood.

Giorgio Armani Thinks Madonna is “Difficult”

Giorgio Armani is refusing to take the blame for Madonna’s fall at the BRIT awards during her performance of her new single ‘Living For Love’. Madonna insisted that it was the cape’s fault and not her own for the minor tumble. The designer was responsible for making the cape that pulled the pop star off the stage and down a short flight of stairs last week. The luxury fashion brand said Madonna “is very difficult”––as we can all imagine the most famous diva in the world would and should be.






“Everybody was worried that my cape was going to slide off because it’s quite heavy, so they tied it really tight around my neck,” the 56-year-old singer explained to ITV’s Jonathan Ross. But contrary to this, Madonna strategically leaves out the details that leave only herself to blame. Armani said, “The cape had a hook and she wanted a tie, and she wasn’t able to open it with her hands.” Watch the wipe out here.

Despite playing he said she said, Armani and Madonna continue a loving relationship according to a representative from the Madonna camp. The horizon is full with more collaborations between the fashion label and the pop star.
