It may have been a while between drinks (excuse the pun!) but Amy Winehouse is definitely teaming up with Fred Perry to create a fashion line. We first heard rumours of a collaboration waaay back in January last year, and now some sketches from her forthcoming collection have come to light. Of course, Fred Perry is no stranger to working with musicians, the street label has also collaborated with Paul Weller and Damon Albarn.
"Amy has been wearing Fred Perry for years, so we were aware she was a genuine fan of the brand," said Richard Martin, Fred Perry's marketing director. Click on to see more sketches...

Naked ladies at a society luncheon? Oh my! Keira Knightley pulled one out of the bag yesterday at a special nominees lunch for the Laurence Olivier Awards. The young actress chose an unusual Miu Miu ensemble which consisted of a nude blouse and black skirt combo emblazoned with a puppy and naked lady motif. She finished off her look with a pair of chunky Miu Miu platforms and a Chanel quilt bag. The quirky outfit raised a few eyebrows in the tabloids, but I think it's fab. How about you?

You have seen a video preview, now feast your eyes on the stunning new ads starring Julianne Moore for Bvlgari. Posing with a few feathered friends, I love the rich colours of this S/S 2010 campaign, which really centers itself around Julianne's luscious crimson hair and porcelain skin. Captured by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, it begs the question - could anyone else have carried this off better? Hmm.. doubtful.

With all the fashion week chaos we almost missed Nicole Richie jet-setting into London last Friday to launch her new line, Winter Kate, at Selfridges. The reality TV star-turned-designer was greeted by fans who had queued up to get an autograph and an up close view of her new engagement ring.
Winter Kate is the latest addition to Richie's fashion CV, and follows the same indie hippy-chic style that she has already incorporated into her footwear and accessory lines under her House of Harlow 1960 label. For her London outing, she wore black tights, a long-sleeved paisley baby-doll top and a black fedora-style hat.
Loving this! Ever since Lily Allen dropped a bombshell late last year that she would be putting her music career on hold to pursue fashion we have been all ears. Now we can reveal that the popstrel will be unveiling her new clothing label, Lucy in Disguise, at the Vintage at Goodwood music-meets-glam-fashion festival (I die!) from August 13 - 15. Founded by designer Wayne Hemingway, the 3-day event will be the first to focus on dressing up and music.

Lady Gaga recently wore Armani Prive to the Grammy Awards. While there, she revealed that Giorgio Armani would also be designing her tour costumes for the overseas leg of her Monster Ball tour. Some of the looks include two sparkly bodysuits, an iridescent mini-dress and a floor-length black patent trench coat. Meanwhile, Prada have also designed her an 18th century-inspired hoop dress made of camel-colored ciré. Nice to have friends in high places, huh?
Showing their support of Natalia Vodianova's Love Ball last night was a long line of mega-stars including Kate Moss, Stella McCartney and Liz Hurley. The Russian supermodel hosted the event in conjunction with Harper's Bazaar and De Beers as a fundraiser for her charity the Naked Heart Foundation, which aims to provide playgrounds Russia's children.
