Balenciaga as Michelle Obama's Fashion Freedom  Balenciaga is globally known as a luxury fashion brand specialising in odd and feminine yet modernistic silhouettes. Today this brand has become the new 'Gucci', that artists rap and sing about in popular singles. Despite this, the brand has not lost its reputation as a high-end luxury brand. This can be confirmed with the outfit worn by the former first lady, Michelle Obama, at the Brooklyn Barclays Centre whilst on tour promoting her new book.

This award was given to her for her services to drama and charity and she stunned in a lemon tweed two-piece from the 2017 spring collection.  The suit was completed with a pink belt around her waist, a white blouse with a tied black ribbon round her collar and a matching boater hat. She accessorised with brown lace-up heels and a white handbag.  Keira unsurprisingly chose this fashion house for such an occasion as she herself is an ambassador for this brand and the face of the brand's Coco Mademoiselle fragrance.  This was not the first time that she was seen wearing Chanel at important events in her life especially at her wedding to husband James Wrighton. Her husband accompanied her to the event also wearing a Chanel tweed suit. Also joining the actress, who was catapulted into the spotlight after her seminal ro

Every year her outfit becomes more iconic than the one before it.  Whether arriving on the carpet in an egg or going glamorous in a designer dress, you just never know what the Mother Monster will wear.  Let us take a journey back on the outfits Lady Gaga shined in at the Grammy's starting from 2010. This was her first Grammy appearance and her outfit sure did the occasion justice. 2010  The dress was essentially see-through however the most prominent piece of her look was surely her heel-less shoes. These shoe-stockings look to be made from a rare hybrid of bubbles and disco balls. Not falling in these shoes was a total miracle. In the same year, Gage had an outfit change before her performance, just like she has done every year since then. In an unforgettable opening number, she kicked off the award s

The traditional pre-wedding Hindu ceremonies were held on Friday and their marriage was made official on Saturday at a Western, Christian ceremony officiated by the groom's father and pastor, Kevin Jonas Sr. The wedding was held at the Taj Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur.  Throughout these festivities the bride and groom wore traditional Indian garb. The bride-to-be wore a beautiful Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla Couture. The immense pop of colour was a great symbol for the immensely happy atmosphere at these festivities. Nick was dressed in a traditional Hindu, made of aqua Banarasi cotton Bakhiya kurta, embellished in fine thread work embroidery made in various stitches. The burst of colour present in the bride's outfit and the groom's aqua was a perfect balance. All guests, bot
