Valentino, who retired from fashion design in 2008, is designing anew—this time for the New York City Ballet’s Fall Gala. The September 20th event aims to celebrate the legendary couturier with a performance of George Balanchine’s “Rubies”—a tribute to the designer’s signature red. In return, Valentino is creating costumes for three works that will be performed during the evening, including a new ballet set to Tschaikovsky’s “Eugene Onegin.” Of the endeavor, Valentino says, “There is so much beauty in the ballet, the grace, the fluidity.” He is honored to have City Ballet “celebrate my work in this way,” he said, “And I am very passionate about the design of these very special costumes.” This is not the first time Valentino designed for ballet since his retirement; he designed costumes for the Vienna Ballet in 2009. Sarah Jessica Parker and Valentino’s longtime business partner Giancarlo Giammetti are set to co-chair the evening.

Kate Middleton, ever the Alexander McQueen fan, has worn the label three times in as many days, all for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations. On Sunday, it was a red pleated custom McQueen dress for the Diamond Jubilee River Pageant; yesterday, it was a black McQueen blazer Middleton wore over a patterned Whistles dress for the Diamond Jubilee Concert. And today, she attended the special service hosted at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London—which wraps up the central celebration of the Diamond Jubilee—again in long-sleeved, knee-length McQueen. The blush dress is covered in lace and features a satin waist detail; Middleton paired it with her trusty nude LK Bennett heels, a satin box clutch, pearl drop earrings, and a Jane Taylor hat. If Sarah Burton wasn’t already cemented as Middleton’s go-to designer for official royal appearances, this past run certainly solidifies it.

Hello StarBlog readers - this post is about one of my favourite activities to do on Stardoll, make my own clothing in the StarDesign Fashion, and the item of focus in this post is blazers!
Amber.Stardoll- The Snow White and the Huntsman actress Kristen Stewart has opened up about how she was bullied as a teenager for not being like everyone else: "Look at a picture of me before I was 15. I am a boy. I wore my brother's clothes, dude!", she recently stated. "Not like I cared that much, but I remember being made fun of because I wasn't wearing Juicy jeans. I didn't even think about it. I wore my gym clothes. Kristen tried not to care about the bullies, but she does remember what the other girls told her in school, and how she felt about it: "But it's not like I didn't care that they made fun of me. It really bothered me. I remember this girl in sixth grade looked at me in gym and was like, 'Oh my God! That's disgusting -- you don't shave your legs!". Poor Kristen, but we bet those bullies are long gone now! (usweekly)
