New Dior Film Stars A Handbag (And Marion Cotillard Too)

May 21, 2009 @ 5:00 pm

Dior’s new short film, “The Lady Noire Affair,” directed by Oscar-winner Olivier Dahan and starring the sensational Marion Cotillard isn’t lacking Hollywood power, but we couldn’t take our eyes off the real star—her handbag! The film follows the femme fatale through a police investigation, but leaves us wondering what she is hiding in her Lady Dior.

Watch the film at ladydior.com.
Lady Dior handbag, $1,950; visit dior.com for stores.

If you thought Twitter wasn’t chic, think again—Louis Vuitton just started tweeting! Don’t expect the dirt on Marc Jacob’s baby news, but you can follow in hopes of getting insider celeb sightings, product launches and private-event updates. Clearly embracing the power of the internet, the French brand is also selling an exclusive bag, the Totally Monogram Tote (left), on their website through June 1st. The chic logo bag comes in three sizes and, if we had to guess, a special place for your Blackberry.

Is Khaki the New Black?

May 21, 2009 @ 2:00 pm

For the third installment of Gap Design Editions, hipster-favorite Alexander Wang, Brooklyn-based babes, Lisa Mayock and Sophie Buhai of Vena Cava and hat-extraordinaire Albertus Swanepoel were tapped to add some cool-factor to khakis. The new collection includes floppy hats, a printed zip-front dress and a moto-style jacket. Thanks to Gap’s wear-anywhere casualness and wallet-friendly prices, these hot designers just put khaki back on the map.

Mark your calendars—the collection debuts June 16th at Gap stores and at gap.com.
