Gallery: Fashion Designers Sketch Katniss’ ‘Girl On Fire’ Dress From The Hunger Games

Natalie Zutter — Tue, 06 Dec 2011 23:30:54 +0000

It’s kind of hilarious to see how fashion designers insert themselves into geeky series. Just like with Bella Swan’s wedding dress for Breaking Dawn, Part 1, famous designers like Christian Siriano and Charlotte Ronson have now offered up their sketches for Katniss Everdeen’s “girl on fire” dress in The Hunger Games. It’s the gown that Cinna (Lenny Kravitz) designs that helps her make such a splash in the Capitol and which sets her apart as fierce and powerful.

Here’s the rub: We’ve already seen Katniss’ fire dress, modeled by Jennifer Lawrence in the Hunger Games trailer. So these are coming a little late in the game; costume designer Judianna Makovsky has gone with a red theme, it appears. Interestingly, no one seems to have acknowledged the series’ description of light-reflecting jewels that make Katniss dazzle. But let’s play along and see what the other designers would’ve done if given the chance.

Style Crush: Charlotte Ronson

Liana Maeby — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 14:03:07 +0000

We suppose it’s no surprise that Charlotte Ronson’s got great style; she is a designer after all. There’s something about her that’s just so wonderfully whimsical. This lady’s style is all about florals and denim and layers — three things we like a whole ton. Check out more of Charlotte’s fashion hits.

Gallery: Behind The Scenes At Charlotte Ronson And Whitney Port’s Fashion Week Parties

Liana Maeby — Mon, 13 Sep 2010 15:28:51 +0000

It’s Fashion Week here in New York, and that means shows all day, parties all night, and hangovers all morning. Crushable’s Drew and I donned our hippest attire (i.e., not jeggings) and headed out to a few events.

First up was the after-party for Charlotte Ronson, whose fall line is full of patterns and pretty, wearable dresses. The event had an open bar sponsored by O.N.E. Coconut Water (fashion and potassium, together at last), and we took full advantage of the free drinks.

We walked up the steps on the heels of Mark Ronson who was sporting a shock of platinum hair. Drew and I quickly spotted Josh Groban, Rashida Jones and Shenae Grimes amidst a mix of high-heeled and suited-up pretty young things. After grabbing drinks, we arbitrarily parked ourselves nearby to take in the scene. I looked over and realized we were at the table of Charlotte herself, who was holding court next to brother Mark and sister Samantha Ronson. People kept stumbling by to greet the designer and steal ice from the bucket on her table. Drew and I grounded our heels and held onto our prime real estate. We decided to throw haughty looks at anyone who walked our way, and it worked — everyone assumed we were supposed to be at the table. Party infiltration success!

After the Ronson-fest we headed over to Whitney Port’s party at a club called 1Oak (read: “one of a kind”) that I suspect may have been purgatory. The place was pretty empty when we arrived — though I supposed it was still relatively early in NYC time. This party was most definitely was NOT an open bar, and I ended up plunking down $40 for two mixed drinks. Goodness!

Drew and I were feeling a bit tired and thought we’d sit for a minute while waiting for Whit and her gang to arrive. We soon discovered that the club’s only seats were in reserved bottle service areas, but figured we’d try our luck again and sat down anyway. We ended up befriending a nice group of kids from Canada who’d paid $1000 for access to seats and a bottle of Grey Goose. They kindly let us sit on their bench and talked with us about hockey and poutine.

We hear Whitney eventually showed up along with folks like Swizz Beats and Reggie Bush in tow, but Drew and I were already in a cab by that point, more interested in meeting comfortable shoes and our beds.

Lessons learned:

1. If you act like you belong somewhere people will totally assume that you do.
2. Never judge an open bar by its lack of cover.
3. Vitamin Water does not cure hangovers.

Fame Wore: Mischa Barton Is The Lady In All-Black

Erin Carlson — Thu, 06 May 2010 21:54:10 +0000

Charlotte Ronson celebrated her collaboration with JCPenney’s last night in Los Angeles, and celebs followed suit. Olivia Thirlby, Shenae Grimes and Brittany Snow were there. So was Peaches Geldof. Mischa Barton looked reallllly relaxed. Maybe because LiLo wasn’t there to cause dramz.

Lindsay Lohan is finally migrating her Twitter followers over from her Sevinnyne6126 account to her new Lindsaylohan account. Her old account had more than 349,000 followers, while the new account has a little under 50,000. But we know that will change as soon as people realize she has a new account!

Lindsay has had the new account set up for a while now, but randomly started posting to the new one in the last day or so. In fact, Lindsay has been Tweeting up a storm in the last 24 hours!

This is what Lindsay told one follower on Twitter about her new account:

Lindsay Lohan Shopping in Soho

Arieanna — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 21:21:17 +0000

Lindsay Lohan was seen shopping with Charlotte Ronson, Sam’s twin sister and Lindsay’s close friend, and another male friend in Soho on February 15th. It looks like Lindsay is at the same store (Kirna Zabete) that Lindsay visited when she was last in New York visiting with Ali & Dina. It was the photos of Lindsay shopping in this store last month that really sparked off the talk about Lindsay’s weight loss.
