Angelina Jolie has announced that her luxury jewelry line, the Style of Jolie collection, will soon be available to U.S. consumers. Though no pricing information has been made available, it’s safe to assume that, since the collection includes one-of-a-kind baubles set with Colombian vivid green emeralds and a 186.42-carat pear-shaped citrine drop necklace, we’re not talking Zales dollars.

The good news — if you can afford to invest in a piece of the statement jewelry, you’ll know your money was well spent.  READ FULL STORY »

Lanvin Fashion Face-Off: Kim Kardashian vs. Zoe Saldana -- POLL

Making the media rounds in New York City last week, Kim Kardashian caused quite a stir in her not-quite-maternity clothes. On March 26, Kardashian hit the streets wearing a blush-colored honeycomb dress from Lanvin’s Resort 2013 collection, a look that prompted the New York Post to ask, “What the frock?”

Zoe Saldana was the first star to wear the designer piece, modeling it for photographers on the red carpet at the Trevor Project’s ‘Trevor Live’ event in Los Angeles last December.

Obviously, the dress looks very different on Kim — she had major curves long before she sprouted that baby bump — than it does on Zoe’s slender frame, so I think this decision comes down to the shoes. Kardashian paired her dress with a pair of nude Christian Louboutin stilletos, while Saldana went with Lanvin’s crystal toe-cap pumps.

Who wore Lanvin better? Cast your vote in the poll below!  READ FULL STORY »

The-Host-PopStyle-01.jpg

To create the wardrobe for the characters — human and alien — in the sci-fi flick The Host (in theaters today), costume designer Erin Benach looked to fashion runways, the Middle East and the Sahara desert, and even author Stephenie Meyer for inspiration.

“The really fun part about this movie was that we had these distinct fractions of people,” Benach tells EW. “You never got bored with the costumes.”

Is Tara Reid trying to steal Elizabeth Banks’ Hunger Games gig?

Reid made no mention of Effie or The Hunger Games, captioning the photo with: “Today at work shooting my new untitled film produced by jamie kennedy its gonna be super cool!”

'Stoker': How the production and costume designers helped create an unsettling thriller -- EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS

Stoker, the first English-language film of South Korean director Park Chan-wook (Oldboy), is creepy, twisted and just…off, and much of that tone — which Chan-wook calls a “gothic fairy tale” — was achieved through unusual costuming and production design choices.

The film reunited production designer Thérèse DePrez with costuming duo Kurt & Bart (who prefer to not use their last names in their work) who previously collaborated on the Allen Ginsberg biopic Howl. While Howl was grounded in the reality of a specific time period, the three designers were challenged by Chan-wook to create an “out of time” feel for Stoker. READ FULL STORY »
