Titanic Fragrance - Legacy 1912 – Titanicä

Would You Wear a Titanic-Inspired Fragrance?

Mar 26, 2012 @ 3:30 pm

QVC launched a fragrance to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, and the scent has a story as compelling as Jack and Rose‘s! Legacy 1912 Titanicä is based on the perfume vials brought onboard by passenger and British perfumer Adolphe Saafield. He survived the ship’s crash, but his scents remained on the ocean floor until they were recently recovered by RMS Titanic Inc, and replicated for QVC’s fragrance! The delicate blend of rose, amber, and fresh lemon is available for $69 at qvc.com. Tell us, would you wear a Titanic-inspired scent?

Celebrities love Jenny Packham! The British designer launched her collection in 2003, which she followed up with a bridal line the following year, and her designs have been red carpet regulars ever since, appearing on Kate Middleton, Kate Winslet, Kerry Washington, Angelina Jolie, and more. “I’m always flattered when someone chooses my designs,” Packham told InStyle.com at her spring 2012 fashion show in New York City. “I think women who like my dresses like to look feminine and classic but with modern elements.” The designer is known for her delicate eveningwear and sweet cocktail dresses with an emphasis on embellishment—a look clients like Jolie and Middleton adore. “I think if you want to emulate their style less is more,” Packham said of dressing the two style stars. “They’re about finding key pieces that have a perfect fit but still have an impact with subtle details and design techniques.” See who else loves wearing Packham’s designs in the gallery!

Kate Winslet’s Golden Hat Foundation and Lancôme Makeup Collection

Dec 12, 2011 @ 2:39 pm

Oscar-winning actress and Lancôme ambassador Kate Winslet teamed-up with the cosmetic brand to create a special three-product line to benefit her new Golden Hat Foundation. After seeing an Icelandic documentary about autism, Winslet was moved to start the the charity to better the lives of children living with the disorder. (The hat concept was inspired by a poem written by a child who has autism.) “I walked away from the experience unable to let it go,” she told InStyle exclusively. But creating the charity was just a start. She’s also supporting it with her work. This April, Winslet will publish The Golden Hat: Talking Back to Autism ($20, amazon.com), a series of celebrity self-portraits and inspirational words. And this holiday season, she collaborated on Lancôme’s Golden Hat collection, which directly benefits the charity. “I took the idea to Lancôme and they said, ‘Let’s absolutely do it,’” Winslet said. “They’re very passionate about the charities they support.” Click “See the Photos” to check-out the gorgeous pieces and hear what Winslet loves about each one.
