Marion Cotillard wears Dior, Dame Edna helps Stella McCartney
Marion Cotillard wore a striking dress from Dior Haute Couture to the “Waltz With Monica” premiere at the 13th Marrakech International Film Festival on Wednesday. The elegant dress adds a touch of whimsy with orange-and-black-striped silk layered under a blue silk overdress -- kind of a grown-up pinafore.
And stripes have been a “thing” on recent red carpets, Los Angeles Times’ Fashion Critic Booth Moore says. [Los Angeles Times]
Dame Edna Everage (aka comic Barry Humphries) helped Stella McCartney usher in the Christmas season at the “lighting” of the designer’s Bruton Street store in London on Wednesday. Dame Edna performed a sketch, then flipped a switch to turn on the holiday decorations. [The Cut]
Kohl’s announced via news release Thursday that it will stay open around the clock for 100 hours in the final holiday season shopping sprint. The stores plan to remain open from 6 a.m. Dec. 20 until 6 p.m. on Christmans Eve.
Mark Lee, chief executive officer of Barney’s New York, was honored with an award for his years of charitable work with UNICEF at the organization’s Snowflake Ball on Wednesday night in New York. The controversy over alleged racial profiling of customers at the store didn’t go unnoticed, though. “Like these shoes?” emcee Bryant Gumbel reportedly joked. “I got them at Barneys — nice price, and I was only in the tank two hours.” [The Cut]
Meanwhile Katy Perry performed at the ball, and notable guests included actress Christina Ricci, designer Olivier Theyskens and Tyson Chandler of the New York Knicks. [WWD]
