Kylie Minogue hosted the amfAR Inspiration gala in Los Angeles last night and wore a thigh-skimming embroidered Emanuel Ungaro dress. The LBD is a perennial fave–is this a good lacy update or one pointy hat short of a Halloween costume? Vote now!

STELLA MCCARTNEY Spring 2011. Photography by Peter Stigter
Paris hasn’t offered up much tailoring for spring ’11. But Stella McCartney built her business on the structured jacket and she isn’t about to abandon what she knows best. Showing amid the opulence of the Opera Garnier, McCartney delivered a collection that hit all the top trends and more. There were soft printed dresses with hip-high slits, a delicious citrus-print tunic and pants, and pastel suits with slim, cuffed trousers. The designer also offered her take on the hybrid skirt/pant, a full, fluid bottom that looks like a slit skirt from the front, and a palazzo pant from the back. McCartney, expectant with baby number three, bounded out to take her bow. She is her customer, a woman on the go.
Stefano Pilati might also be a man on the go–the rumour mill has him exiting Yves Saint Laurent any day now. His concise spring collection offered slim black jumpsuits, stiff peasant frills, backless shirts, and the sleeveless jacket that will be a must-have for spring.
Other highlights of the day: Pink chiffon, ostrich feathers and garden party prints at Giles Deacon’s flirty, ultrafeminine debut for Emanuel Ungaro; dancewear-inspired dresses at Chloé, leopard print mixed with solids at Giambattista Valli.

Stella McCartney just launched her second capsule collection for Target Australia. We’d suggest you book a plane ticket, but then you may as well buy the ready-to-wear. [Frockwriter, via Racked]
See what we said about stunt casting? Street style blogger favourite Anna Dello Russo modeled for Giles Deacon’s first show for Emanuel Ungaro. [Twitter]

We hope this rumour isn’t true: Marc Jacobs and Lorenzo Martone have reportedly ended their relationship. It’s hard to tell at this point what’s real and what’s not, but both Jacobs and Martone have declined to comment. But they had such a great wedding cake… [The Cut]
Jacobs’ business partner, Robert Duffy, got married in Rhode Island last week. [NYTimes]
Is Giles Deacon in or out at Ungaro? Blog buzz is that he’s snagged the creative director role, but Deacon himself saying that there is nothing to report at this point. [Vogue UK] Read more »

The dusty Ungaro drama is far from settling, with the announcement today that Estrella Archs leaving the label. “Estrella Archs announces that she has left her job as chief designer of Emanuel Ungaro due to irreconcilable differences related to the creative direction of the brand,” a spokesperson for the designer confirmed. [Vogue UK]
Anna Wintour spoke at the Pratt Institute last night in a tribute to Irving Penn, and we got a glimpse into the softer side of the Vogue editor-in-chief, calling Penn a “seductive” man who she immediately had “an intellectual crush [on].” She concluded her speech quite emotionally, saying “He made me a better editor. He was always in my head…. Irving’s gifts to us will not end.” [Fashionista] Read more »

Rumour has it that Giles Deacon may take over as the revolving-door role of creative director for Emanuel Ungaro. Deacon was spotted with Ungaro owner Asim Abdullah last Friday in Paris, and in the world of fashion gossip that obviously means they’re working together. [Vogue UK]
Catherine McNeil‘s girlfriend, Aussie MTV host Ruby Rose, apparently confirmed their engagement to Women’s Day and they were both in L.A. recently sporting engagement rings. Rose later said on Twitter “I have never in my life spoken to womans day, i have never even met anyone from that magazine?” [The Cut, Herald Sun]
Supermodel favourite Azzedine Alaïa said that he’d like to do a collection for H&M and we would like to see it happen. [Fashionista]

TheOutnet has responded to Friday’s $1 crash and burn sale, saying, “…we are very sorry to all those who didn’t get to buy anything at the sale, but delighted for the thousands of lucky ones amongst you that did walk away with a £1/$1 bargain from theOutnet. With each event we are working hard to fix issues that arise, and want to say that we fully intend to offer you further bargain shopping opportunities in the future.” Do you forgive and forget about those $1 no-boutins? [Racked]
The fashion world went crazy last week after seeing Lady Gaga carrying a marker-customized Hermès Birkin. Artist Terence Koh has released images of himself drawing more Japanese characters on the coveted handbag, so that it’s now entirely covered. Do we smell a cry for collaboration? [Fashionista]
We have celebs to thank for the return of shapewear; Oprah, Gwyneth Paltrow and Jessica Alba have chatted about their underpinnings and Lady Gaga is just plain wearing corsetry as clothes. All this, ahem, exposure has apparently sparked 10.6% rise in sales since March 2009. [WWD]

It’s no secret that Tom Ford is making a foray into womenswear, but he’s remained mum on the details of his design team. Word is that the designer has nabbed Caroline Tixier from Givenchy and accessories designer Pablo Coppola from Alexander McQueen. [The Cut]
But before we can see his Fall 2010 women’s collection, Ford is expanding his Private Blend collection to include lipstick. Available in June, the line includes 12 “universally flattering colors,” because as Ford says, there is “no more dramatic accessory than a perfect lip.” We’re hard pressed to disagree.
