Pixie Lott misses again in sheer polka dot maxi skirt

Can you spot another fashion slip up? Pixie Lott misses again in sheer polka dot maxi skirt

She can usually be counted upon to step out looking enviably stylish.
But the last few days haven't exactly been Pixie Lott's best fashion-wise.
The 21-year-old arrived at the Radio 1 Live Lounge today wearing an odd full-length sheer polka dot skirt.

The star's modesty was protected by a black mini skirt underneath.
She teamed her unusual choice with a high-necked black top and leather jacket with a leopard print lining.
Pixie accessorised with two pale gold crucifixes and a delicate chain bracelet.

The Mama Do singer tweeted before her slot: 'Getting ready for my Live Lounge for @bbcr1 and @fearnecotton. Tune in v soon cats!! Aggaga! Xx'
Pixie sang a cover of Lloyd's hit single 'Dedication To My Ex (Miss That)', which features Lil Wayne and Andre 3000, for her Live Lounge slot.

She explained to presenter Fearne Cotton: 'I chose it because I was listening to all the recent stuff at the moment, and I like songs with a bit of soul in it.'

I though we could take it and interpret it in our own way just rough it up a bit.''
Pixie also divulged that she intends to release more singles from her latest offering, Young Foolish Happy and hopes to promote the LP in Japan when it is released in February.

Her most recent single Kiss The Stars is Pixie's third top ten hit from the record, which charted at number 18 in November last year.

While Pixie doesn't usually need to worry as far as her vocals are concerned, it can't be denied that this hasn't been her week when it comes to wardrobe choices.

She turned up to film ITV Daybreak yesterday wearing another unfortunate ensemble which did little to flatter her many attributes.
Pixie wore a sleeveless leopard print dress with a sheer grey blouse sporting a leopard print collar and cuffs for her appearance.

Diane Kruger and Salma Hayek are front row at Giambattista Valli couture show in Paris

Black, white and romantic all over: Diane Kruger and Salma Hayek are front row at Giambattista Valli couture show in Paris

Diane Kruger and Salma Hayek, along with society maven and sister of the late Jackie Onassis, Lee Radziwill, made for an exclusive guest list at Giambattista Valli's couture show in Paris today.

Held at the Hotel de Crillon, the spring/summer collection was only the second couture offering from the Italian designer.

Mr Valli delivered a confident offering though, with lace flowers, layers of chiffon and rivers of light-reflecting, shimmery sequins on both ballgowns and knee-length cocktail dresses.

The designer used a palette of that was predominantly monochrome, set off by flashes of colour in shades of pinks from the softest blossom to deep fuschia and plums.

While block colours dominated, Mr Valli also made way for blurs of floral prints and everything was softened with textures, such as polka-dotted chiffon or stiffened wool.

Belted waists gave structure to billowing gowns, many of which featured over-sized ruffles and bows around the neckline.

Mr Valli's wearable cocktail dresses came with romantic overlays of seductive lace as well as clustered of embroidered silk flowers and pretty belts.

Mr Valli was only recently admitted into the elite Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture. Last year, he made his couture debut as a 'guest label'.

He joins an illustrious group of designers taking part in the biannual event, among them fellow Italians Valentino, Armani Prive and Atelier Versace, which returned for the first time in eight years.

The only major French labels that are scheduled to show this year are Chanel, Dior, Jean Paul Gaultier and Givenchy, although several newer design houses are taking part.
The garments will be bought by a small and extremely selective (read, very wealthy) clientele based mainly in China, Russia, the Middle East, as well as North and South America.

The one-off, hand-crafted creations can sell for $40,000 or to over $100,000 for a wedding dress.

Anne Hathaway, Jessica Biel and Sarah Jessica Parker have all worn couture gowns by Mr Valli on the red carpet. And there is no doubt we will see plenty more as the awards season progresses.

Prachi Badve A Twelve-year-old has designs on Kareena

If four-year-olds can turn catwalk queens, then who says a pre-teen can’t design an entire clothing line? Twelve-year-old Prachi Badve, who first raised eyebrows by participating at the Pune Fashion Week at the age of nine, made her Mumbai debut at the recently-concluded India Kids Fashion Week.

“Teachers would complain that her grades were dropping because her notebooks were filled with sketches of dresses,” mom Pooja recalls.

The family finances Prachi’s collections, shelling out huge participation fees for the various fashion weeks. “We were worried about spending that kind of money on such a young child, but I reasoned that if she wanted to be a doctor, we would have invested about Rs 50 lakh in her education anyway,” says Pooja.

And if you thought that she was all talent, no technique, Prachi has already completed a diploma course in fashion designing at the Vidyanchal Institute in her native Pune. “After my first fashion week, there were lots of offers to study at various institutes. The schedule here matched my school timings, so I chose this,” she explains.

But the pre-teen, who wants to be the “most established designer in the world and dress Kareena Kapoor and Shah Rukh Khan one day”, snaps at any question of her parents’ involvement. “I don’t know why people keep asking whether my parents are forcing me to do this, or if my mother designs the clothes and I take credit. No one in my family is involved in fashion,” she protests.

Her mother adds, “All 65 garments that she’s designed so far are lying in my house. I don’t want people to think I’m using my daughter to set up a business. I’m just helping build her brand. Once she’s old enough, she can turn professional.”
