Mon, 30 Jan 2012 05:41:40 GMT

Award season saw another glamorous night with the Screen Actors Guild Awards in LA this evening. Stars from both the big and small screens brought even more great looks with plenty of ladies stepping out in neutrals. Presenter Zoe Saldana glowed in a white Givenchy Couture gown straight from the Paris runways while Bridesmaids' Kristen Wiig chose a Balenciaga halter. Viola Davis, who won best actress and best picture for The Help, got gorgeous in a strapless Marchesa and her winning costar Octavia Spencer donned Tadashi Shoji. The Good Wife's Julianna Margulies wore a custom beaded Calvin Klein Collection as she arrived on the arm of her husband Keith Lieberthal.

There were a few fun pops of color this evening, including a group that matched the carpet in red. Best actress nominee Michelle Williams looked sweet in a lace Valentino gown and Lanvin clutch and Kyra Sedgwick showed skin in a cutout Pucci that displayed her rib tattoo of her family's initials. Modern Family's Sofia Vergara continued her sexy streak in a strapless pink Marchesa dress and Lorraine Schwartz jewels, which were front and center when she took the stage with her costars to accept the best TV comedy ensemble statue. Emily Blunt got bright in a green Oscar de la Renta next to husband John Krasinski, and The Help's Jessica Chastain went with a bold blue Calvin Klein.

Angelina Jolie led the pack of black looks in a slinky Jenny Packham gown and Ashlee Simpson followed suit in a sequin number by the same designer when she arrived with boyfriend and Boardwalk Empire nominee Vincent Piazza. Emma Stone mixed things up with a short McQueen and 30 Rock's Tina Fey went strapless in Versace. Melissa McCarthy, who was nominated for Bridesmaids, joined the dark-hued dresses in navy Badgley Mischka.

2012 SAG Awards: Best, Worst & Wackiest Dressed Stars

Sun, 29 Jan 2012 23:30:52 GMT

By Leah Ornstein - Radar Style & Beauty Editor

It was a fashion packed night at the Shrine Auditorium as Hollywood’s hottest movie and television stars hit the red carpet of the 2012 Screen Actors Guild Awards dressed in designer gowns, uber-expensive bling, the hottest heels and the most covetable clutches -- but not everyone was dressed to impress!

RadarOnline.com has sorted through all of the red carpet style and picked out the best, worst & wackiest dressed stars of the night in a special photo feature.

PHOTOS: The Best, Worst & Wackiest Dressed Stars Of The 2012 SAG Awards

It was a stellar night of style as all our favorite bombshells dazzled in fab fashion!

Angelina Jolie reigned the red carpet like the queen that she is! Brad's leading lady showed off her collection of body art and her much-talked about bod in a dark and dangerous Jenny Packham halter gown paired with House of Lavande and Platt Boutique jewels, Gucci heels and a Louis Vuitton bag.

PHOTOS: The Best, Worst & Wackiest Of The Week

The best-dressed cast of the night was without a doubt The Help! While Emma Stone looked 1950s fab in an Alexander McQueen tea length dress and Tiffany & Co. bling, Jessica Chastain wore a bold, blue Calvin Klein bustier gown, Viola Davis looked marvelous in a white and gold embroidered Marchesa strapless stunner and Octavia Spencer rocked a divinely draped Tadashi Shoji number.

Vibrant color was also a big trend of the night, with Michelle Williams ravishing in a red Valentino gown, Sofia Vegara working her curves in a powerfully purple Marchesa gown that showed off her famous fanny and busty top half to perfection, and Kyra Sedgwick wearing a seriously cutout and bright red Pucci dress, with 19th century gold pendant earrings and a 19th century gold and rose-cut diamond snake bracelet from Fred Leighton.

Ashlee Simpson was a beautiful plus one for her Boardwalk Empire beau Vincent Piazza, changing up her look in a dark and dangerous Jenny Packham gown that she accessorized with loads of Lori Rodkin jewels.

As for the biggest misses a la mode, It Girl of comedy Kristen Wiig failed to hit the high note wearing a sleek and sexy Balenciaga gown with an awkward black diamond choker, and Amber Riley was a bust, showing off her enormous assets in a bowed cocktail dress.

And The Actor Goes To

Sun, 29 Jan 2012 05:00:00 GMT

The 18th Annual SAG Awards ceremony was almost like watching the Globes all over again. Same A-list nominees, same A-list winners, save for upsets in the Best Actor and Actress categories. Only this time around the festivities included a drinking game courtesy of the Bridesmaids crew. Kristen Wiig and company's onstage antics echoed the action on the red carpet: For the most part, the vibe tonight was cooler, looser, and more fun—and better for it.

That's not to say the glam factor went missing. Natalie Portman and Zoe Saldana both nabbed looks fresh from the Paris haute couture shows that wrapped last Wednesday; the former chose a strapless Giambattista Valli in a deep shade of bordeaux, and the latter wore Look 17 from Givenchy. Minus the nose ring, that is—things weren't quite that loose.

Still, there was plenty to like: Emma Stone's black Alexander McQueen, Michelle Williams' lacy red Valentino, Jessica Chastain's royal-blue gown from Calvin Klein Collection. We'll be looking forward to seeing what those three choose for the Oscars. Gretchen Mol's white and gold L'Wren Scott column dress also made a big impact.

White and gold also proved lucky for a Marchesa-clad Viola Davis. After winning Best Actress for her role in The Help, she was back on stage again for the Best Ensemble prize.

Criminal Charges Being Weighed In Christmas Fire That Killed Five In Connecticut

Sat, 21 Jan 2012 20:08:46 GMT

By Radar Staff

Criminal charges are possible in the devastating fire that killed five in Stamford, Conn. Christmas morning. Veteran ad exec Madonna Badger's three children and her parents all died in the blaze. She and her boyfriend Michael Borcina who was handling renovations on Badger's newly purchased waterfront mansion, escaped with injuries.

Now The New York Post has learned that the Stamford police department is interviewing several workers on the renovation project, and criminal charges are being weighed.

“We’ve got a lot more interviews scheduled,” Police Capt. Richard Conklin told The Post. The home had no new certificate of occupancy, and its smoke-detector system, installed several months before the fire, was not hooked up, according to officials.

PHOTOS: Madonna Badger's Home is Demolished

Badger, who created the iconic Mark Wahlberg Calvin Klein underwear ad, was in the process of divorcing her husband, the father of the three girls who died.

She and Borcina had been wrapping presents by the fireplace until about 3 am Christmas, and when they went to bed, Borcina put the Yule log embers in a bucket, which was left in a foyer. It was those embers that started the killer fire.

PHOTOS: Madonna Badger Sobs At Daughters' Funeral

Borcina’s contractor registration in Connecticut expired in 2000. His home-improvement license in New York expired in June 2010. He's hired top criminal attorney Eugene Riccio to defend him in the event charges are filed,

The deaths have all been ruled accidental by the medical examiner, but a charge such as reckless manslaughter could be brought by the District Attorney, Connecticut attorney Stephen Seeger told The Post.

Video: Bizarre Mercedes SL fashion video with model Lara Stone isn't in Kansas anymore

Wed, 18 Jan 2012 00:01:00 GMT

Filed under: Convertible, Videos, Mercedes-Benz, Design/Style, Luxury

Mercedes-Benz has put together a fashion-shoot-and-video session with Dutch supermodel Lara Stone and the 2013 SL for Fashion Week, and the result is a vid that only those attending Fashion Week could understand. Which is, probably, half the point.

We shared the "making of" video with you back in late December, but it's apparently taken until now for the completed Alex Prager short to be completed. Back then, the film idea was presented as the Calvin Klein model trying to outrun a tornado, but it's not. Think The Wizard of Oz in Louboutins by Jim Jarmusch and you'll be close. Or you could just watch the video after the jump.

Calvin Klein Collection

Mon, 16 Jan 2012 09:46:30 GMT

Italo Zucchelli clearly loves his life in New York. His new collection for Calvin Klein was a song to the city. He managed to find a way to duplicate the texture of concrete in stippled leathers. The lights of high-rises reflected in puddles of rain inspired the Technicolor flecks on a nylon parka. There was a fireman's poncho in nylon canvas, and the bombers and hooded sweatshirts you see on every street corner. If the collection had a directness and immediacy about it, that was surely because of Zucchelli's new living-for-today conviction. Not yesterday, and certainly not tomorrow, which is where he has so often been placed as the futurist of American men's fashion. The here and now obviously suits him, because the clothes he came up with were one of his clearest distillations yet of the Calvin Klein ethos. The name stands for a modern classicism, and that was exactly what Zucchelli focused on with this collection: not only the urban staples like duffels and puffas, but also broad-chested suits in gray flannel or tweed, and voluminous overcoats that had a timeless masculine heft. The palette was classic camel and black. Plus, every look was underpinned by a button-down shirt in white cotton.

Zucchelli's own contribution to the Calvin lexicon has been his aptitude with fabric, which usually comes out in extraordinary techno materials. But here, the focus on the classic drew him to cashmeres, alpacas, mohairs, leathers, and, most indulgently, alligator: At the beginning of the show, a felted sweatshirt had sleeves of navy alligator. By the end, there were slim alligator trousers and a matching blazer. Zucchelli brought luxury down to earth with the thick-soled loafers that are showing up everywhere as the shoe of the season.

Mourning Madonna Badger ‘Trying To Find Peace,’ Says Family Member

Fri, 06 Jan 2012 23:00:52 GMT

By Debbie Emery - Radar Reporter

The memorial for Madonna Badger's three children and their grandparents is giving a small degree of closure to the mourning mother, RadarOnline.com has learned.

"It is a heartbreaking thing," a family member exclusively told RadarOnline.com, the day after the multiple funeral service.

"I hope that she has found some peace. Maybe this can help bring some closure.”

PHOTOS: Madonna Badger's Home is Demolished

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the New York fashion executive sobbed at a service held at the St. Thomas Episcopal Church on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan as she remembered her daughters who were the victims of a tragic Christmas Day fire.

Three tiny caskets topped with white and pink floral arrangements for her daughters Lily, 10, and twins Grace and Sarah, 7 were carried into the church.

PHOTOS: Madonna Badger Sobs At Daughters' Funeral

Badger's parents, Lomer, 71, and Pauline Johnson from Louisville, Kentucky, also perished in the blaze at her mansion in Stamford, Connecticut.

Madonna was supported at the funeral by her estranged husband, Matthew Badger, and a spokesperson for him told RadarOnline.com that it was "too soon to comment" on the devastating tragedy.

PHOTOS: Stars Who Died In Bizarre Ways

The accident occurred after the prominent New York businesswoman, who created the iconic Calvin Klein underwear ad with Mark Wahlberg, had been wrapping gifts by the fireplace with friend Michael Borcina until around 3 am. They reportedly then loaded the embers from the fireplace into a bucket and left it in the foyer before going to bed.

Investigators believe that is where the blaze started in the $1.7 million Victorian home that Madonna only moved into last year.

PHOTOS: Celebrities We Lost In 2011

More than 500 mourners listened to Badger's moving eulogy, where she described the loss of her "girl tribe" and thanked well wishers for support.

"In all the incomprehensible loss and chaos, all I can hang on to is that love is everything," said Madonna.

PHOTOS: Celebs Who Died Young

Among the attendees were actor Philip Seymour Hoffman, fashion designers Calvin Klein and Vera Wang, and rocker Lou Reed.

Singer-songwriter Rufus Wainwright performed a haunting acappella version of Over the Rainbow during the service.

Madonna Badger Gives Heartbreaking Eulogy At Funeral For Daughters Killed In Christmas Day Fire

Thu, 05 Jan 2012 21:00:31 GMT

By Alexis Tereszcuk - Radar Senior Reporter

In a heartbreaking speech, New York fashion executive, Madonna Badger sobbed as she remembered her daughters who tragically were the victims of a Christmas Day fire in their home.

“My little girls are not gone from us entirely because my little girls are in my heart,” she said while sobbing. “Right here. And this is where they live.”

PHOTOS: Madonna Badger Sobs At Daughters' Funeral

The St. Thomas Episcopal Church on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan was packed with mourners who listened to Badger speak lovingly about her lost girls.

There were three tiny caskets topped with white and pink floral arrangements for her daughters Lily, 10, and twins Grace and Sarah, 7 in the church.

PHOTOS: Madonna Badger's Home is Demolished

Madonna fondly remembered Lily, saying “she was naturally shy, but when she let her smile glow it glowed completely,” and spoke about a heart wrenching conversation she had with Grace.

“Gracie asked a thousand times if she was going to die before me. I said, ‘No. that’s never going to happen.’”

PHOTOS: Celebrities We Lost In 2011

The horrific Christmas Day fire also killed Badger’s mother and father, Lomer, 71, and Pauline.

All five bodies were found on the top two floors of Badger’s three-story $1.7 million mansion in Stamford, Conn.

PHOTOS: Stars Who Died In Bizarre Ways

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the blaze is believed to have started from Yule log embers.

The prominent New York businesswoman, who created the iconic Calvin Klein underwear ad with Mark Wahlberg, had been wrapping gifts by the fireplace with her boyfriend, Michael Borcina until around 3 a.m. They apparently then loaded the embers from the fireplace into a bucket and left it in the foyer before going to bed.

PHOTOS: Celebs We Lost In 2010

Investigators believe that is where the blaze started in the $1.7 million Victorian home that Madonna only moved into last year.

Lomer had valiantly tried to rescue his grandchildren by climbing onto a flat section of roof atop the three-story home and was close to getting one of the trapped children out but collapsed from carbon monoxide poisoning.

PHOTOS: Celebs Who Died Young

He was found buried underneath rubble just outside an open window which was near to where his granddaughter’s body was located. The proud grandfather had dressed up as Santa Claus at Saks Fifth Avenue this year to hand out gifts to children at the urging of his granddaughter Lily.

Neighbor and eye witness Charles Mangano told The Stamford Advocate he heard a man screaming for help as flames consumed the house shortly before dawn.

PHOTOS: Celebrity Death Threats

"They were both obviously in a state of shock," Mangano said. "He was in his boxers and a T-shirt, with no shoes. They were leading him up to an EMS truck. The woman said -- she was mumbling -- and she said, `my whole life is in there'."

Madonna Badger was seen fighting to get back inside the home to try and save her girls but she was eventually subdued and loaded onto a stretcher.

Madonna Badger's Three Kids & Parents Killed In Horrific Fire: Hear The 911 Call

Yule Log Embers Blamed For Fire That Killed Madonna Badger’s Three Kids And Her Parents

Calvin Klein Collection

Thu, 29 Dec 2011 15:34:32 GMT

Francisco Costa has swapped Spring's see-through slipdresses and delicate lingerie for sturdier stuff. Wool felt, to be precise. His pre-fall collection seemed to be an exercise in making the somewhat rigid and certainly thick material sensuous. It sounds like an impossible challenge, but Costa made a success of it, and it comes down to a single element: the hourglass silhouette.

Designers up and down Manhattan have been talking about the waist this week, and Costa made it the focal point of his show. Coats, dresses, and the jackets of skirtsuits (there wasn't a pair of pants to be seen) came cinched with belts, or their backs were decorated with long, curving parallel seams. Pleats on full, A-line skirts echoed those seams and kept the hourglass idea going. There's something pleasingly perverse about a bustier dress in second-skin charcoal-colored wool felt, or a leather and wool bustier over a cashmere crewneck—they're just so unexpected. Felted wool coats were less of a surprise, but they displayed the same exacting attention to cut and fit. The collection's colors—a brown that was almost black, khaki, putty, and apricot—further served to accentuate Costa's trademark precision.

Video: Mercedes shows off SL's new curves with supermodel Lara Stone

Tue, 27 Dec 2011 19:58:00 GMT

Filed under: Convertible, Mercedes-Benz, Design/Style, Luxury

Mercedes-Benz sent Calvin Klein model Lara Stone out with a 2013 SL , and put photographer Alex Prager in charge of documenting the platform-heeled, Arcadian shenanigans. The project is called the 2012 Fashion Collaboration, Icons of Style, and will be shown in its entirety at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, February 9-15, 2012. Meant to be a modern take on film noir and, apparently, Storm Catchers, Stone uses the SL to outrun a tornado.

Yule Log Embers Blamed For Fire That Killed Madonna Badger’s Three Kids And Her Parents

Tue, 27 Dec 2011 00:29:17 GMT

By Radar Staff

A blaze that ripped through a family’s home on Christmas Day killing fashion executive Madonna Badger’s three young children and her parents appears to have been the result of Yule log embers.

The prominent New York businesswoman, who created the iconic Calvin Klein underwear ad with Mark Wahlberg, had been wrapping gifts by the fireplace with Michael Borcina until around 3 am. They apparently then loaded the embers from the fireplace into a bucket and left it in the foyer before going to bed, an emergency worker told The New York Daily News.

Investigators believe that is where the blaze started in the $1.7 million Victorian home that Madonna only moved into last year. Borcina was the contractor for the renovations being undertaken on the Stamford waterfront estate.

PHOTOS: Stars Who Died In Bizarre Ways

Lily Badger, 10, and her seven-year-old twin sisters Sarah and Grace were killed and their grandparents Lomer, 71, and Pauline also perished in the tragic incident.

Neighbor and eye witness Charles Mangano told The Stamford Advocate he heard a man screaming for help as flames consumed the house shortly before dawn.

Badger has been released from hospital while Borcina remains in stable condition.

Top Fashion Exec Madonna Badger Loses Three Kids And Her Parents In Mystery Fire

Mon, 26 Dec 2011 19:30:03 GMT

By Radar Staff

Madonna Badger, a prominent New York City advertising executive, lost her three children and her parents when her waterfront mansion went up in flames Christmas morning.

Badger, who created the iconic Mark Wahlberg underwear ads for Calvin Klein, and her friend, Michael Borcina, both escaped the blaze.

Badger bought the Stamford, Conn. waterfront estate just last year for $1.7 million. Borcina's construction company was renovating the home.

PHOTOS: Stars Who Died In Bizarre Ways

Stamford Police Sgt. Paul Guzda said Badger's three daughters, seven-year-old twins and a 10-year-old, all died in the fire. He confirmed that Badger's parents, who were visiting for the holiday, also died.

Stamford police officers notified Badger's estranged husband, Matthew Badger, of the tragedy and drove him to the scene from his apartment in Manhattan. The two split three years ago, and are in the process of getting divorced.

Neighbor and eye witness Charles Mangano told The Stamford Advocate he heard a man screaming for help as flames consumed the house shortly before dawn.

Fire chief Antonio Conte said Monday morning it does not appear that the renovations were the cause of the fire

"With the condition of the building it will remain under investigation for a number of days until the fire marshal can get in," Conte said. "I would say it's a number of days before we actually find out how this occurred and what happened."

When they “formed” Royal Trux in 1985 Neil Hagerty (previously of Pussy Galore) and Jennifer Herrema (who was sixteen at the time, and later became the original Calvin Klein heroin chic model of the 1990s) appeared to be a mystical musical marriage, made somewhere between junkie heaven and hell, depending on your perspective, but with a bizarre synchronicity unmatched by any other underground musical couple of their day.

Lara Stone's Style Evolution

Wed, 14 Dec 2011 10:18:53 GMT

Lara Stone's sultry sartorial efforts have not gone unnoticed.

From the early days (well, 2009) when she favoured a more edgy aesthetic, to the super-glossy styling she prefers today, Ms Stone is a key player on the fashion scene - both on and off the runway.
