Jude boosts Sienna’s career

Nowadays your’e only as talented as the amount of press you get whether good or bad, and Sienna Miller can vouch for this. The actress has been one of the most talked about celebrities in the past weeks and as a result has managed to land two roles in two major Hollywood movies. After being turned down for the part in Factory Girl as drug addict Edie Sedgwick, for not being famous enough in America, movie bosses have now changed their minds since reports of Jude’s cheating were all over the media. She has also been given the part of Queen Sparta in 300 which is based on the Battle of Thermopylae. Its definitely not the way Sienna would have preferred to get the part. According to the Mirror A source close to Sienna told a newspaper: “This is not the way Sienna would have liked to have won the role of Edie Sedgwick or a big action role. “But she is not going to kick a gift horse. Professionally speaking, being so badly treated by Jude is the best thing that’s happened to Sienna. “She always wanted the part of Edie but she simply wasn’t famous enough in the States. Now she’s deemed A-list famous. American movie producers don’t ask too many questions about why everyone’s writing about you. If you’re in the papers you’ve made the grade … and they want you.” Meanwhile Jude wants to have babies with her to demonstrate his commitment, we dont think children will be on the top of Sienna’s list.

The First “Technological Stylist”

There are those such as Vincent Van Gogh, Prince and Coco Chanel who are considered to have been ahead of their times. Switch to today and that could not be said for many, apart from Alexandra Fede. While most fashion designers are still experimenting with the combination of different eras, Alexandra Fede has taken her creativity one step further with the fusion of Science, Technology and Fashion. Resulting in a portfolio filled with remarkable creations such as Anti Violence, a range of garments made with fabric resistant to bullets, knives, razors and more. And the Gold Dress, a dress made of gold cards and kilometres of gold wire as featured in the Guinness Book of records 1999. And while not many of us are walking around in Alexandra Fede it can be safe to say that if she has her way, we will be. The idea of combining science with fashion is extremely innovative, what inspired you to develop this concept? Fashion has always been for me an extremely creative world but I have always had the feeling that something has to change for a better quality of life. In today’s world creativity is not enough. I started researching to give some added value to the wearer. Thanks to the haute couture, which I used as an experimentation lab, I tested new fibres and finishes along with a design and style that would reflect sometimes invisible innovation in the apparel. I had many inspirations coming out from observing the people’s needs and my own. For example: one day I was flying from Rome to Paris for an important meeting and you know what happened on the plane? Due to the turbulence I spilt all my orange juice on my clothes. At that time I felt terrible as I did not […]
