Gold by Giles: My Closet Would Like to Give You A Home
5Aug10

Who wears the Gold by Giles dress better? I’ll give this one to Drew Barrymore, the face of the Gold by Giles Deacon collection; on one condition — they bring more of his designs to America! I think that’s a fair request considering they choose an American brand ambassador.
This dress is awesome! Although I’m not photogenic, I will say this: it shaped so well and is very flattering in person. The dress fits like a glove, although it does run small (especially if you’re busty). However it’s lined and ribbed to really hold everything in place. I just wish more of this collection was available in the US. I couldn’t even find an official website for the brand! Although from what I could find out, the collection is exclusive to TheNewLook.com (super cute and reasonable fashion UK site) but the assortment currently available is very limited. I want more!

Kesha Rocked the House as the New Face of Baby-G
3Aug10
I suppose it was only a matter of time when the singer of the hit debut single ‘Tik Tok’ would strike a watch deal. Ke$ha, brand ambassador and the face of Baby-G woman’s Casio watches rocked the Manhattan Club last night after the Casio press conference at their ‘Shock the World’ event which revealed her latest ad.
Khloe Kardashian’s husband, LA Lakers Lamar Odom, and actor Bryan Greenberg (my future husband), and skateboarder STEVIE WILLIAMS also presented as brand ambassadors for Casio. Also in attendance was Khloe Kardashian, Wendy Williams, Jake Pavelaka, Danielle Staub, and more

Molly Crabapple for Dirtee Hollywood
26Jul10
I feel like I’ve been hearing the name Molly Crabapple everywhere these days. Known for her unique burlesque style animation, Molly has illustrated for a wide array of publications including Marvel Comics, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, as well as for NYC hot spot, The Box. She has also exhibited her work internationally as well as founded the Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School. Now Crabapple is entering the fashion world thanks to her recent partnership with Dirtee Hollywood, where she has designed for their Spring, Summer, and Fall tshirt collections.
Dirtee Hollywood celebrated the collaboration at Fred Segal in LA, and Atrium in NYC, where Pretty Connected had the pleasure of meeting Molly and watching her work (she literally transformed a blank canvas into a burlesque-vixen with an octopus before our very eyes (see pictures below).
Pretty Connected (PC): How did you come to be apart of this collaboration?
Molly Crabapple (MC): Dirty Hollywood approached me about a year ago. I had never thought I would do a fashion line before but they gave me complete creative freedom. They said ‘Molly you’re known for doing saucy Victorian girls, do saucy Victorian girls for us’ and it’s just been this wonderful collaboration ever since.
PC: How did you come up with the drawings for Dirty Hollywood?
MC: I suppose I should have a more rational explanation more
