The Top Hairstyles Picked In Milan Fashion Week

Milan. Considered by many to be the heart of global fashion. If London and New York and Paris are the life and soul of international fashion, Milan is its spirit. Fashion breaks free in Milan, and the Spring Summer 2013 Milan Fashion Week this year reminded us once again fashion is not only about designer names and famous people, but also about having something to say!

We've got tons of really cool, wearable hairstyles from the runways of Milan this year. Here's the pick of the Top 5 hairstyles!


1. Bottega Veneta

You probably never thought you’d hear the phrase "scruffy English Rose", but Bottega Veneta's show at Milan Fashion S/S-13 perfected a look that was all things dainty and pretty and rosy, yet there was a distinctly unfussy and relaxed vibe to the styling.

Models wore their hair parted at the centre and gathered in a low, messy chignon at the back. A perfect look for someone who doesn't want something too formal, yet you don't want to look like you don't care at all either!

2. Dolce and Gabbana

Dolce and Gabbana models had their hair done up in large chignons, with a twist: each model had a brightly colored, patterned scarf tied around her head.

Headscarves have been a rage the world over all of 2012 and are clearly going to be a hot favorite the coming summer too!

Headscarves are a fabulous way to jazz up a simple outfit and add a lot of oomph to your look without trying too hard. Usually though, headscarves make for a casual, boho look. With D&G styling headscarves around chignons, maybe all that is about to change!

3. Emilio Pucci

Emilio Pucci's models wore their hair down, very sleek and chic, with minimum styling. Straight hair with a centre part and face-framing bangs defined the look. Small sections of hair were taken from the front and gathered and twisted before being pinned at the back to add some neatness and style to the look.

4. Fendi

Fendi's look was very mod, almost edgy. They took the season's favorite chignon and upped the drama with a wet look, tight high bun instead of the classic, low chignons. Hair was slicked back for a wet-look and knotted into small, high buns. Some of the models wore funky leather and rubber hair bands to accessorize the look.

5. Roberto Cavalli

No fashion show is complete without some tousled glamour thrown in and Roberto Cavalli made sure he didn't disappoint. A very casual look, this style is super wearable and is universally flattering.

Know About The Fashion In Oscar Movies

While most winners in this category are hurried off the stage by the familiar refrains intended to signal them to wrap it up so we can get to the categories with big stars like Clooney, Kidman, Streep and more, the Oscar winners for Best Costume Design leave an indelible mark on movie history and the memories we have of our favorite films. Audrey Hepburn emerging in her tiara and white bejeweled gown in Best Costume Design winner My Fair Lady is remembered to this day as much as any line of dialogue.

Yet, the Oscar movie didn't always celebrate costume design. The award was first given out in 1949, 21 years into Oscar history, but it was, in fact, two awards. Recognizing the different challenges for costume design for a Black and White movie versus those for a full Color movie, the Best Costume Design category was broken up into those two subcategories.


It wasn't until 1958 when both subcategories were joined into one Best Costume Design category, but that didn't last long. Again, throughout the 1960's, the Academy decided to split the category into Black & White and Color subcategories allowing movies as diverse as La Dolce Vita, The Night of the Iguana, West Side Story, 8 ½ and Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? all to succeed in garnering Oscar wins for their design teams.

Curiously enough, when we think of Best Costume Design, we stereotypically think of the work done by artists contributing to grand period pieces featuring massive wigs and ball gowns. Yet, at first, most winners in the Black and White category were from movies with modern settings such as legendary films like All About Eve, Roman Holiday and A Place In The Sun, all done by the legendary Edith Head, who, with 35 nominations, dominated the category until her death in 1981.

However, in the Color category, and through much of modern day, designers and artists contributing to lush fantasy, epic and musical films have found themselves at the winner's podium, even though most nominations go to films set in modern day. Amazingly enough, 42 of the last 45 winners were from fantasy or period pieces, including the last 17 winners in a row.

Much like movies such as Spartacus, Cleopatra and My Fair Lady were early winners for bringing to life a time in history many of us had only read about in history books, modern day winners include the designers for films like Alice in Wonderland, The Young Victoria, The Artist, Elizabeth: The Golden Age and Marie Antoinette.

Get The Review Of The Movie Part of Me


It's a good thing the makers of "Katy Perry: Part of Me" aren't in politics. They'd probably steal the election.
"Part of Me" and its forerunner, "Justin Bieber: Never Say Never," are mesmerizing pieces of pop propaganda. Both 3-D concert films give a reality TV-style portrait of a young star, scrubbed clean, at the pinnacle of pop: touring sold-out arenas while making Herculean sacrifices, always finding time for the fans and goofing around with their entourages of stylists and assistants.
They're unabashedly commercial movies made about unabashedly commercial enterprises. And yet they're kind of fascinating.
That's because "Part of Me" is as good a document you're likely to find of modern pop stardom: how it's packaged, how it's sold and what kind of power it holds over screaming 'tween girls.
The film, directed by reality show veterans Dan Cutforth and Jane Lipsitz (the pair produced "Never Say Never," as well as shows like "Top Chef" and "Project Runway"), follows Perry's 2011 California Dreams world tour. The 124-concert extravaganza came on the heels of her hit album "Teenage Dream," the only album to chart five No. 1 hits for a female performer.
A large chunk of the film is made up of 3-D footage of the concerts (songs like "Firework" and "California Gurls") performed on candy-colored stages that look like Willy Wonka threw up on them. (All of the footage was shot by other filmmakers and later assembled by Cutforth and Lipsitz, who came aboard only to stitch the film together in editing.)
But much of the documentary is spent telling "Katy's story," and certainly, the blue-haired, dinner-plate-eyed 27-year-old makes for a compelling character. Raised by traveling Pentecostal ministers (Keith and Mary Perry Hudson now run a ministry in Oceanside), Perry first tried Christian songwriting as a 13-year-old and later, in Los Angeles, went through various incarnations before emerging as a star with "I Kissed a Girl."
As artificial as much of the apparatus surrounding Perry may be, none of it works without her charisma at the center. That comes through in "Part of Me," as does her intense drive to succeed after early failures. Many of those who helped along the way are here to sing her praises and take credit for their foresight of her talent, like her slick manager, Bradford Cobb.
"Part of Me," though, doesn't succeed as a full picture of Perry. A less PG-friendly, more complicated version of the star surely exists off-screen. The film often feels like a tease, showing only, well, part of Perry.
The "money shot" of the film is when cameras catch Perry crying in her dressing room after her split from husband Russell Brand (who's seen fleetingly backstage).
It's an honest moment. The finest shot of "Part of Me" is Perry seconds before she goes on stage that night in Sao Paulo, Brazil, bent over sobbing and then seconds later ---- with the professionalism of a true performer ---- papering over the heartbreak with a broad smile while chants for "Kay-tee!" roar and the peppermint-colored wheels on her dress start to spin.
The moment would mean more if it was accompanied by more context of Perry's emotional life, rather than served up as evidence of her humility. But that's the sleight of hand of "Part of Me," which can even use genuine sorrow to feign depth.
Watching "Part of Me" through aqua- and pink-colored 3-D glasses in a crowd of girls singing along, Perry's songs don't feel vapid but rather like anthems of self-empowerment. The pop experience ---- exuberant, superficial, fun, crass ---- could hardly be mirrored better.

Do You Know About The Famous Entertainers in Australia

One thing that is sure to make your event the most popular is hiring a professional entertainer and there are many companies providing entertainment hire services. These companies have ample services like corporate entertainment and wedding entertainment to make your event a successful one. Whether you are hosting a birthday party or a corporate event, a hen's night or a wedding reception, or a wedding dj or dj hire services or any other kind of event, hiring professional entertainers will make it a great deal more enjoyable. In fact people will talk about how much they enjoyed it long afterwards and look forward eagerly to the next one.
So how do you find an entertainer that is suitable for your event? That's easy; there are many entertainers just waiting for an opportunity to make your guests laugh and enjoy themselves. All you need to do is to Google your choice of genre, country and place into your favorite search engine. But make sure that the kind of entertainer or act you choose actually suits your event. For instance, for a corporate event you might want to be sure your chosen comedian tells only clean jokes. But for even more fun it may be that your specific material can be tailored into humorous repartee.
But what if you were thinking more in terms of a dance band? It is still important to choose one appropriate to the occasion. You might like to go for a 20's to 30's style sing and dance band entertainment. But be sure to choose one that is not so loud that guests cannot hear each other talk, so they can dance, mix and have lots of fun. Other kinds of dance bands ideal for weddings and other events where dancing is part of the agenda could be Caribbean and Latin style.
For something amazingly different you might want to have an illusionist entertain your guests with a mixture of comedy and amazing Houdini style illusion, or whatever the specialty is. And there are booking agency to provide you magicians for hire or stand up comedians or female comedians to entertain your guests.
Also you can hire wedding bands in Melbourne; else there are jazz bands, tribute bands, musicians for hire, and other bands for hire and also cover bands and string quartet to make your occasion a memorable one.
Different kinds of entertainers could be a rhythmic gymnast who combines gymnastic skills with dance, a country and western artist, or singers that entertain in other genres such as contemporary, classic or pop music styles.
For something completely different in the entertainment stakes and totally suitable for a dinner of any kind would be something that actually included the guests as part of the entertainment. Hosting a pretend murder where the fictitious host has been murdered and all the guests are suspects would be quite fun in the right setting. Over the course of the meal they have to find the guilty party. This is excellent entertainment for team building and interactive fun.
