We also take a look at a huge event that sees Australian fashion label Elwood collaborating with music two music icons for the launch of their latest range.
Finally, we’re uncovering the latest celebrities to sign on as ambassadors for some of our favourite brands including the uber hot Jared Leto.
Kate Hudson’s Baby Name
After 4.5 hours of labour, Kate Hudson and Matthew Bellamy welcomed a little boy into their lives over the weekend and now the baby’s name has been announced! In the tradition of strange celeb baby names, Kate’s little one is called Bingham Hawn Bellamy.
The new father explained the name on his twitter account, saying, “For those wondering, Bingham is my Mum’s maiden name and Bing Russell was Kurt’s dad. Family connections all round!”
And of course ‘Hawn’, is a tribute to Kate’s mother Goldie Hawn.
Elwood Hits Bondi
Last night music icons Dan Sultan and Alexander Gow (Oh Mercy) joined up with Aussie fashion label Elwood to launch their spring range and their fresh flagship store at Bondi Junction’s Westfield.
These two unique guests took time out of their hectic tour to perform on the night where guests from magazines and media looked on and enjoyed the spring range that has been inspired by the all American Summer camp, complete with a touch of Girl Guide Glam.
Andy Gillot, Managing Director for Elwood, said of the collaboration with Oh Mercy, “I feel this is a great way to showcase Elwood’s passion and support of Australian artists, and celebrate the natural union of denim and music.”
All you flower children should check out the gorgeous range in Elwood stores and online at www.elwoodjeans.com. We love!
The Latest Faces to Brands
It’s always nice to have a face to a name and we’ve got three huge announcements of the latest faces to some big brand names. First off the rank is Australian Logie Award winner Rebecca Gibney who has just been announced as Olay Regnerist’s brand ambassador. Gibney said of the new gig, “Ageing is a fact of life and whilst I feel comfortable with it, like all women, I also want to slow down the signs of it. Great skincare has always been part of my daily routine and I can truly say, hand on heart, that Olay Regenerist does make a difference.”
Hugo Boss’ latest fragrance, HUGO – Just Different, is set to launch in Australia on the 7th of August with the multi-talented Jared Leto as its face. We can’t wait to see the brooding, creative Leto on a few advertisements and we think this fragrance might be one to keep on the radar for father’s day.
Finally, atheletic star and McQueen muse Aimee Mullins is the new L’Oreal ambassador, saying, “The ‘Because I’m Worth It’ tagline means a lot to me. Beauty is not skin-deep, it can be a means of self-affirmation, a true indicator of personality and confidence.” Aimee joins mega-stars Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce, Diane Kruger and more in the L’Oreal family.
