My passion for developing product, brand experiences and teams feels very at home at J.Crew. It’s a beloved brand that has always been in my heart and, like millions of consumers, in my closet.”
Nicholson has described Singer’s appointment as an “important milestone” for J.Crew and he cannot wait to start working with her.

I am proud of the way the teams came together in 2019 with a renewed focus on restoring profitability at the J.Crew brand, and our results reflected encouraging momentum led by strong gross margin performance and the accelerated benefits of our multi-year cost optimisation programme. With these key building blocks in place, it is an opportune time for J.Crew to bring on a leader with a proven track record in positioning brands for success … It is an exciting time for J.Crew, and I look forward to partnering with Jan as we further energise our businesses and teams.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Misha Nonoo has teamed up with Hatch for her own maternity capsule collection.
The 33-year-old designer is currently expecting her first child with her husband Mike Hess – whom she married last year in a star-studded wedding attended by the likes of Meghan, Duchess of Sussex – and has joined forces with maternity retailer Hatch to design her own range of clothing targeted towards pregnant women.
Misha’s collection features two items: A Hatch x Misha Nonoo Maternity Husband Shirt and a Hatch x Misha Nonoo Maternity Shirt Dress.
Prices in the line range between $185 to $240, and is inspired by Misha’s signature Husband Shirt.
Ariane Goldman, founder and chief executive officer of Hatch, said in a statement: “We are excited to join forces with Misha Nonoo for a limited-edition collaboration. Misha turned to us as she was entering a new chapter of life, expecting her first child, and we were thrilled to play a part in celebrating the moment.
“I have always been a fan of Misha’s work and there was a great, natural synergy between our brand’s aesthetics, so we could not be happier to share these pieces with our customers.”
Misha and Hatch’s collaborative collection launched on Wednesday (29.01.20), and is available at hatchcollection.com and mishanonoo.com.
Meanwhile, the beauty previously designed her own wedding dress for her big day in Rome, Italy, in September 2019, and said at the time that having no restrictions on what her gown should look like made it more “challenging” than anything she had ever done.
Speaking before her wedding about her dress – a silk gown with long sleeves and a 10-metre silk tulle veil – she said: “Creating it has been so challenging, because there are no limits to what you can do with a wedding dress, so at times the choice has been almost paralysing. But I think I’m there now.”

In a lengthy post, the dark-haired beauty wrote on her profile: “What a night it was! I’m so grateful to have been part of @jpgaultierofficial’s final #hautecouture show, with so many of his muses and friends present!
“Jean Paul has always celebrated individually and beauty in many forms, and in all stages of life in a completely authentic way.
“I’m glad that being inclusive has become something brands feel compelled to do now, but #jeanpaulgaultier has been a champion for inclusiveness and diversity consistently, and genuinely, all along, because he truly believes in it.
“I’m thankful to Mr. Gautier not just for shining the spotlight on me over the past 18 years, but for creating this joyful space that truly celebrates beauty in many forms.
“I can’t wait to witness the next chapter for Jean Paul. And, as his #FashionFreakShow tours, try to go see it, because it captures the magic of being at his runway shows in a fantastic way. (sic)”

The final show came as Gaultier announced on Twitter he would be retiring from fashion.
He announced in a video post on Twitter: “This show celebrating 50 years of my career will also be my last. But rest assured Haute Couture will continue with a new concept.”
In the clip, Gaultier clarified that although he is stepping down from the fashion industry, his business will continue to thrive without him at the helm.

OHMYGOSSIP — Jorja Smith doesn’t feel her “most beautiful” unless she feels “good on the inside”.
The BRIT Award-winner – who released her debut album ‘Lost & Found’ to acclaim in 2018, and has collaborated with the likes of Drake and Stormzy – has admitted that no amount of beauty products will make her feel good about herself unless she is feeling “confident”.
In an interview with Allure magazine, she said: “I feel the most beautiful when I’m feeling confident about myself.
“If I’m not feeling my absolute best, I like to workout because going to the gym, running, and spending time with myself always makes me feel better.
“If I see my friends, they always make me feel good about myself.
“Beauty is an inside-out job, you have to feel good on the inside first.”
The ‘Blue Lights’ hitmaker also revealed that she is a huge fan of hot yoga and a good hydrating face mask when she is travelling.
She said: “I love hot yoga because I like having steam.
“Steam is good for my skin because it gives me a really nice glow.
“And I like face masks, especially when I’m going on a plane because my skin gets really dry.
“I stick with clay and hydrating masks.”
The 22-year-old beauty also shared that when it comes to fragrances, she is a huge fan of “sexy smells” by night, and in the daytime, her favourite is Dior’s Hypnotic Poison.
She added to the publication: “With fragrances, I like to smell sexy.
“At night, I like loud, dark, woody, sexy smells because I feel like it suits me.
“I have day perfumes, too.
“Like Dior Hypnotic Poison ($62), which is my favourite. It’s sweet and very vanilla-ey–it’s quite a soft smell.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Halsey says it’s “important” to “cleanse”.
The 25-year-old singer always makes sure to wash her face with cleanser and a hyaluronic acid serum, because she thinks having “glowy skin” is a must, especially when she’s on the road.
She said: “The most important part for me when I’m on the road is to cleanse. I’m really really really into glowy skin.”
Halsey’s quest for glowing skin stretches to her make-up routine too, as she uses a whopping six different highlighters to make her cheekbones and nose shine.
She added: “I use like six highlighters in my beauty routine. One of the greatest compliments I’ve ever gotten in my life is someone told me that they were seeing my show in an arena and they were at the section all the way at the top and they could still see my highlight.”
The ‘Nightmare’ hitmaker also loves to apply false lashes, and says she’s done it so many times she could now put them on “in the dark”.
Halsey said: “I have hundreds of [lashes] in my house. I have done this so many times in my life, I feel like I could put on lashes in the backseat of a car, without a mirror, in the dark, with one hand tied behind my back, during a zombie apocalypse.”
The star’s affinity for make-up and style comes as she originally wanted to go to art school before finding a career as a musician, and says “painting and make-up” are closely linked.
Speaking to Vogue for a video in which she recreated her look from the cover of her new album ‘Manic’, she said: “Before I was a musician, I was really set on going to art school. A lot of people don’t understand how alike painting and makeup are.”

The 18-year-old model – who is the daughter of Cindy Crawford and Randy Gerber – has joined forces with the design house for her own spring-summer collection of shoes and boots, featuring four standout styles.
Speaking about the collection, Kaia said: “I jumped at the chance to work with Sandra [Choi, the creative director] on my dream capsule of shoe and boot styles, it was such an honour to be able to brainstorm creatively and I am so thrilled with the result. I wanted an effortless on/off duty wardrobe that could work with any look in a colour palette that talked to my Cali roots while adapting to any city, at any time anywhere.”
The collection features two boots and two shoes, including the K-Cruz – which is a lace-up snakeskin boot in a mahogany hue – the beige suede K-Jesse, the snakeskin K-Slingback which comes with a pointed toe, and the K-Slide, which is black with a small heel.
Kaia’s collection also has a charitable aspect to it, as 15 percent of all sales will go to the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which is a charity Kaia chose herself for the project.
She said in a press release: “The mission of St Jude has always been closely connected to my family. From the beginning I wanted this collaboration to have a charitable element and I am so grateful that I can support this incredible organisation alongside Jimmy Choo.”
Jimmy Choo will debut Kaia’s full collection on February 2.

OHMYGOSSIP — Viola Davis says beauty “is not defined by youth”.
The 54-year-old actress is the new face of L’Oréal Paris Age Perfect – which is specifically designed for women over 50 – and has said she was thrilled to get the chance to work with the major beauty label, because she feels as though someone “finally sees” her beauty.
Asked what it felt like to be approached by the brand, she said: “It’s like someone finally sees me. Many women get to a certain point in their lives and no one looks at them or values them anymore – as if they are invisible, you know? The fact is that beauty is not something that can just be defined by youth.”
The ‘Widows’ star is “completely into” make-up now that she’s reached her 50s, and said that whilst she never bothered with products when she was younger, she now feels as though she’s “released [her] inner woman”.
She added: “I’m completely into everything from under-eye moisturiser to all shades of lipstick, which is surprising because I never used any products in my twenties. Now I have about 30 bottles of perfume alone; each one is for a different occasion. I feel more girlish and buoyant in my fifties than I ever have before. I’ve released my inner woman!”
Over the past few years, Viola has become known for embracing her natural hair after having previously covered it up with wigs, and has now said her decision to make the switch came as she was tired of “not feeling pretty enough”.
Speaking to InStyle magazine, she said: “I’m at a period where I want to step into who I am. I’ve spent too long not feeling pretty or feminine enough – not feeling enough. And part of that was about my hair!
“Like any fear in life, I had to deal with it. So when I was nominated for ‘The Help’ in 2012, I walked down the Oscars red carpet, one of the most public events known to mankind, with my natural hair.
“It’s been great, though I do have my moments. I always say that when Black women who have gone natural get together, it’s like being in an AA group. The conversations are like, ‘How long have you been natural?’ ‘Oh, two months today. I have good days and bad days. But mostly good days. Sometimes I put a wig on; sometimes I take it off.’ ”

OHMYGOSSIP — Rita Wilson has shaded her former make up artist after he failed to show up for a big event.
The 63-year-old actress – who has been married to Tom Hanks for 32 years – was left speechless earlier this month when her employee was a no show before the Golden Globes.
Luckily, her latest addition to her glam squad was right on time to help her get ready ahead of the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards on Sunday (19.01.20) night.
Taking to her Instagram Stories, Rita posted a behind-the-scenes look at her ensemble and sniped: “Thank you @adriana_tesler for the glam and for always being on time.”
The ‘Sleepless in Seattle’ star kicked off awards season with her husband at the Golden Globes (05.01.20), where Tom received the Cecil B. DeMille award.
However, one hour before the red carpet was set to begin, Rita announced to her Twitter followers that she was facing a wardrobe malfunction.
She wrote: “My hair and makeup person is one hour and twenty minutes late.”
Followed by an update: “Hair and makeup still not here. Trying to be zen.”
She also explained how she had booked the artist back in September to ensure everything would go smoothly on the night.
After waiting for an hour and a half, Rita took to Instagram to show her fans just how glamorous Hollywood really is.
She snapped a selfie showing her natural face and half curled hair and wrote: “What you look like when your hair and makeup person for the @goldenglobes is one and a half hours late even though you booked him in September. Will leave one hour to do hair and makeup.”
A host of famous faces came out to support the ‘Runaway Bride’ star including Julianne Moore and Chrissy Teigen.
Julianne commented on her post: “Omg I feel u. (sic)”
Whilst Chrissy was determined to uncover the mystery makeup guru.
The ‘Lip Sync Battle’ star wrote on Twitter: “I cannot go on until I know who, I have no life.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Phoebe Waller-Bridge has sold her Golden Globes outfit for £21,200.
The 34-year-old actress auctioned off her Ralph & Russo designer tuxedo she wore to the awards ceremony earlier this month to help raise money for the victims of the Australian bushfires.
After the ceremony, she signed the custom-made two-piece – which featured geometric black and gold ribbon applique, Chantilly lace and a silk lapel – and listed it on eBay.
In a statement announcing she was auctioning the item, Phoebe said: “I’m very excited that this stunning, one of a kind, couture tuxedo created by Australian geniuses Ralph & Russo will continue its journey by contributing to this urgent cause.
“If money raised by its auction can help raise funds to fight the disaster in Australia, the future impact of this suit will be far greater than the luck it brought me and the ‘Fleabag’ team at the Golden Globes.”
On Sunday (19.01.20), the auction closed with just one bid of £21,200.
The ‘Fleabag’ creator decided to split the proceeds between three charities: the Australian Red Cross Disaster Relief & Recovery Fund, which will help Red Cross emergency teams, WIRES Wildlife Rescue Emergency Fund and Wildlife Victoria, which are both on the ground assisting in the rehabilitation and recovery of thousands of Australian wildlife.
Meanwhile, the suit’s designers Ralph and Russo said they were “delighted” by the star’s decision to sell the outfit.
They said: “Being both from Australia originally and with much of our family still residents across the region, it is with a heavy heart that we watch and hear the news of the terrible fires currently engulfing such large areas of our homeland.
“With Australia remaining so close to our hearts, we are delighted to stand next to Phoebe to support relief efforts with this special auction.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Emilia Clarke is “hellbent” on not having any cosmetic surgery.
The 32-year-old actress refuses to have any work done to her face and, instead, plans to stick by her mother’s expert beauty advice of moisturising morning and night.
Emilia told The Memo: “I’m pretty hellbent on not getting anything done to my face. But I kind of want to do all I can in taking care of my skin. It’s a form of self-care as well- I’m choosing to put the energy into making sure I’m looking good.”
Since a young age, the ‘Last Christmas’ star has always been cautious of her skin.
She explained: “You really need to care for your skin. Like I said, my mum worked in skincare; so from like the age of 10 I cleansed, toned and moisturised twice a day, every day. I could have a big night out and I will still wake up the next morning with clean skin.”
And it’s her clear glowing skin that has nabbed her a spot as the first-ever global ambassador for Clinque.
Determined to swear off any surgery, Emilia is opting for the brand’s BB-Gel to help keep her skin looking young and fresh.
She said: “The BB thing is like my secret weapon; as soon as I tried it out, I was like oh, this is my vibe–this is so my vibe. As I said, I’m lazy–so I wake up in the morning, and I put on the BB-Gel as if it were moisturiser, and then just forget about it. And I swear from like the first time I used it my skin was GLOWING!
“It doesn’t look like I have foundation on, but my skin looks so clear. It’s the one thing that I use every single day and people are like ‘have you been on holiday? Are you alright? Have you been sleeping well? You’re looking good!’
“And so obviously I then told all my mates about it because it’s a genuinely brilliant product.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Lauren Hutton “freaked out” about ageing when she hit her forties.
The 76-year-old model worried about getting older, especially because her metabolism changed and she gained weight, and it took a few years for her panic to subside.
Speaking to The Cut, Lauren said: “I completely freaked out around 42 to 43. I put on about ten pounds — which I know isn’t a lot, but on-camera, it looks like 25 pounds. That was upsetting. But you talk yourself out of social ideas.
“We have a pretty mad society in many ways. It took me almost till my 50s to snap out of it. Now it’s not nearly so bad.”
These days, Lauren has a more pragmatic approach to getting older and insisted ageing is “the point of life”.
Asked what the word ‘ageing’ makes her think of, she said: “I think that’s the point of life, if you’re lucky. Hopefully, it’s growing up. You get to be wise. That’s the point. You read; you talk to the smartest people in the world and listen to them.”
The ‘I Feel Pretty’ star had a tough time as she approached her forties as she was fired from her million dollar contract with Revlon for being too old but she wasn’t bitter about the decision because she thinks it backfired on the cosmetics firm.
She explained: “I don’t feel any resentment from when they fired me at 41; it hurt them much more than it hurt me.
“When they called me in to say it was good-bye, they told me they had done “focus groups” and discovered that “women over 40 didn’t use make-up!” Well, I was over 40, and all the women I knew all used make-up.”
Despite her advancing years, Lauren hopes she still has several decades left in her career.
She revealed: “I hope to do modeling till I am 100. There is a chance. My mom just turned 96.”
Being an older model in the industry has allowed Lauren to witness the social change and meet a new dynamic of models.
She added: “I feel a bit like a fantastic granny to all the gap-toothed models today. There’s this British one, Adwoa Aboah, who founded Gurls Talk. She’s deeply beautiful. She’s the most wonderful, shocking beauty to come around in a long time.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Kim Kardashian West jokingly branded Kylie Jenner’s make-up range “cheap s**t” after an online tutorial went wrong.
The KKW Beauty founder had agreed to let the lip kit guru give her a makeover but proceedings were called to a halt when the 22-year-old star struggled to get to grips with her own product.
Kylie – who pointed out she isn’t a professional make-up artist – began by saying: “I love a bright inner corner, so I like to spray …This is a new ones.”
However, the product failed to spritz properly, and as Kylie clicked the nozzle with frustration, she exclaimed: “Why the f**k is this not working?”
Kim wasn’t impressed at having to wait and jokingly claimed the spray was “cheap s**t”.
Her younger half-sibling continued trying to get the bottle to work and again exclaimed: “What the f**k.”
She eventually got the spray going but the tutorial then hit another snag when Kylie was applying Kim’s eye make-up and accidentally removed one of the 39-year-old star’s false eyelashes.
The pair joked they should wish on it but Kylie gave the unusual souvenir to one of her assistants.
But Kim joked she had plans for her “wish” after Kylie recently beat her number of social media followers.
She quipped: “I just wished I would beat you in Instagram again. Now my wish won’t come true.”
Meanwhile, the pair’s mother, Kris Jenner, recently admitted she is “bursting with pride” over her daughters’ success in the beauty industry.
She said: “As a little idea from Kylie and me and Jen and Matthew was there too, a few people with a really big idea… we couldn’t do it without you.
“When we started out, and KKW Beauty was just a dream for a minute, and then we became one big family, it makes me so proud. I am bursting with pride for my daughters.”
