Elle Macpherson In Sydney Promoting Her New Lingerie Collection 'Boudoir'

Elle Macpherson is in Sydney for a 10-day promotional show, launching her black-label Boudoir lingerie collection.





























"This was never a celebrity-driven brand," she told the Herald's fashion editor, Kellie Hush, referring to her business relationship with the New Zealand company Bendon. "Perhaps in the beginning Bendon needed a well-known face to break into Australia, but I was also looking for a reputable manufacturer of lingerie for me to break into this market. It was a perfect fit in some respects."

"When I speak to young girls who want to start modeling, I always say it is much more valuable to have beauty as a tool than to be selling one's beauty," Macpherson said of her natural talent.

"Develop your skills and talent, then let beauty be the cherry on the cake, not the emphasis of your career. I've always tried to really develop other skills and then have the way I look as a bonus."

Madonna's Clothing Line..Blah

So you tell me what you think.

Yesterday was the launch of Madonna's new clothing line for H&M, called 'M'.

Sounds sophisticated enough right? I thought so too until I actually saw some of the junk. I converted the prices from GBP over to US Dollars so you can see what they are priced at.

In my opinion these clothes are bor-ring. They also resemble another celebrities clothing line. The Jacqueline Smith collection at Kmart.

Fake Fur Is Dog Fur?!

A Humane Society Investigation Found That What's Labeled and Advertised As Faux Fur Isn't Always Fake

From the runway to the racks of mass retailers, fake fur is all the rage.

But a recent investigation by the Humane Society found that what's labeled and advertised as faux fur isn't always fake.

In testing a sampling of coats, they found that 24 out of 25 samples were mislabeled — most contained the fur of a raccoon dog, a dog that looks like a raccoon.

Wayne Pacelle, CEO of the Humane Society of the United States, found the news that fur advertised as fake can actually come from dogs outrageous.

"The images that we have seen in China are truly chilling — animals literally skinned alive for a product where we have an alternative this day in age," he said.

The Humane Society collected the coats they tested from a variety of major retailers, including Lord and Taylor, Saks Fifth Avenue, Macy's, Burlington Coat Factory and JC Penny.

They discovered that celebrity clothing lines were also at fault — real fur was found in clothing from Jay-Z's RocaWear line, P Diddy's Sean John label and Beyonce Knowles' House of Dereon brand.

"I think what we have found is that the industry at the design level and retail level just isn't paying attention, they are asleep at the wheel," Pacelle said.
