OHMYGOSSIP — Riccardo Tisci wants a film to be made about him.
The 43-year-old fashion designer – who was the former creative director of Givenchy for over one decade – feels “blessed” to have a successful career, and he has admitted he is often approached by film directors who want to depict his life journey in a movie.
Speaking to Highsnobiety.com, the creative mastermind said: “I’m blessed because I think God gave me this dream. Sometimes I have a friend, a director and they’re like ‘Oh, let’s make a movie of your life’ and one day I probably will do it because I’m so lucky in my life that I really believe somebody does help me from another planet. I’m so happy and I’m so blessed. So, I never forget where I came from and I need to go back there and I need to talk to these people.”
The mogul – who has also worked with Nike for almost 10 years – has revealed he is taking a “break” from the fashion business because he feels he needs to take “two minutes to stop” and “reinvent” himself as he hasn’t taken a breather since he started his career aged 10 years old.
He explained: “This is why I’m taking my break. I achieved a lot already. You know, when you run, run, run, run, you need two minutes to stop.
“People say ‘Oh, you took a sabbatical because you were totally overworking.’ No, no, no. I started working when I was ten. So it’s 33 years. I never stopped for a second in my life and when you are a creative person it’s rare that you look up and say ‘Oh my God I’m so proud’. You always want to change something because you know, things change, emotions change, you grow up.
“So, what I really am so proud of is after 15 years of my career, I can be able to talk to a woman, she could be 70, very classic, elegant and chic, and also talk to young kids from Harlem and from the Bronx. That really for me is the biggest dream I could have. I’m still the same Ricky that I used to be 15 years ago. I didn’t change, my life’s changed and of course I’m glad, but I want to talk to the younger generation. I’m 43 and I’m trying to think how kids and young generations think.
“You know, what do humans needs in their life? What I’m thinking at the moment is that I’m going to take care of myself and then reinvent myself.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Karlie Kloss has hailed Cindy Crawford as “the chicest woman” in the world.
The 25-year-old model has praised the 51-year-old supermodel for her style and for her parenting skills as the blonde-haired beauty believes she has passed on her “incredible taste” to her 16-year-old daughter Kaia Gerber.
Speaking about her idols to InStyle Online, the Kode With Klossy founder said: “I think Cindy Crawford is one of the chicest women. She’s so smart, and she’s got incredible taste. She taught Kaia well. Kaia also has really good style.
“Christy Turlington, Cindy Crawford, and Naomi [Campbell]. I mean, women who I really admire, for a myriad of reasons. They have been exactly in my shoes as a model but also think about all the other ways to use their voice and platform to do the things that they are passionate about.
“And Jourdan Dunn. She’s one of my best friends, and I just think she’s like hysterical and she has really good taste.”
Karlie has revealed the best piece of advice she has ever received was from her former teacher, and she draws on those wise words to this day.
She explained: “The first one that comes to mind is my third grade teacher, Mrs. Sonderman. She told me, “Don’t sweat the small stuff.” Today I was thinking about her.”
The catwalk icon is set for a busy year ahead as she will launch her own TV show ‘Movie Night With Karlie Kloss’ later this year, she hopes to “build” her modelling career, and she is planning to take on even more projects.
She said: “I have a long list. Right now I have my plate full, but I have big ambitions for what I want to continue to build in my modelling career, in my work with Kode with Klossy, and in all of the projects that I’m involved in. But I have always known that I plan to, at the right time, with the right idea, build a business, be it a consumer goods business, a technology business, I have no shortage of ideas. It’s a matter of finding the right one, the right timing, and the right team.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Kylie Jenner plans to expand Kylie Cosmetics.
The 20-year-old reality star launched her beauty empire last year, and the star’s 61-year-old momager believes her youngest child has “just scratched the surface” with her beauty business and thinks Kylie has “so much more” she can achieve with her company.
Speaking to CNBC, the Kardashian/Jenner matriarch said: “The goal in the future is to just build the whole infrastructure, and figure out what a retail model might look like that could take it globally. She’s just scratched the surface and there is so much more to do with the brand.”
And Kris has hailed the ‘Life of Kylie’ star as a “super smart” businesswoman because she owns “100 per cent” of her company and doesn’t have any investors input, although Kylie has been approached by cosmetic giants to help push her brand.
Kris continued: “Right now she’s super smart about keeping it all in the business. She owns it 100 percent herself, and she doesn’t have any investors. It makes for a wonderful opportunity to expand.
“We’ve talked to a few people, and certainly there is interest, but we’ll see what happens.”
And Kris doesn’t think the ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star will be “stepping away” from her company any time soon because make-up has always been her “passion”.
She said: “I don’t think she sees herself stepping away from this brand for many years. She’s doing this because it’s really her passion. It’s so authentic to who she is, because she’s been wanting to do this since she was a little girl. To see her have this kind of success with something she really loves has been really great.
“It was always Kylie’s dream to have a beauty brand and makeup company. She said [to me], ‘I really want you to help me do this and figure it out.’ And we tried launching some lip kits and they sold out in minutes, if not seconds. I realised that we have a real viable business on our hands. It was crazy. The fulfilment center couldn’t really get them out fast enough and the site crashed three times. I realised we had to get a manufacturer really quickly that could handle the volume and get a fulfilment center pulled together.”
And Kris is “very proud” of how successful her brood are.
She said: “Any time your kids do something that’s a success, it makes you very proud and very happy. And I think that makes me want to do it even more and work harder for the next one, the next time.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Kourtney Kardashian relied on her family for advice when she designer her PrettyLittleThing range.
The 38-year-old television personality has teamed up with the online fashion house on her debut solo collection, which boasts 32 pieces, and the star has revealed she turned to her siblings Khloe Kardashian, 33, Kim Kardashian West, 37, as well as half sisters Kendall Jenner, 21, and Kylie Jenner, 20, for their “stamp of approval” when she was working on the line.
The raven-haired beauty told PEOPLE: “I see my sisters almost every single day, so while I was designing the collection, if I was going over fabric swatches and they were sitting next to me, I would ask their opinion, like confirming, ‘This is really a good dress, right?’ to just kind of get their stamp of approval.
“We’re 1000 per cent supportive and there’s no competition at all. I send inspiration to them all day. Like, if I am looking online and I see a cool ’90s makeup vibe, I’ll send that to Kylie.
“Khloé wrote me because she was out of town a lot when I was doing it, so I mostly showed it to Kim, but she was like, ‘Oh my god, congratulations. The collection looks amazing. I am so proud of you.'”
Kourtney made her first foray into the fashion industry when she launched the Kardashian Kollection with her sisters in 2011, but the ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star has hinted the trio wouldn’t always agree on certain styles to include in their capsule.
She explained: “With my sisters, we would always have to incorporate each other’s style into the collection. A lot of times Kim and Khloé would agree and maybe I wouldn’t agree, so we’d have to have a two-against-one rule.”
Kourtney – who has Mason, seven, Penelope, five, and two-year-old Penelope with her former partner Scott Disick – has revealed her love of creating clothes started at a young age as she used to make her friends clothes for a night out.
The style icon said: “I used to sew my friends’ clothes on the weekend if we were going out and they wanted something, just for fun. My love of clothes since I was so young – playing in my mom’s closet and even my passion for interior design – has helped with this.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Lily Rose Depp wore Chanel when she was “still in diapers”.
The 18-year-old model – who starred in first campaign for the fashion house in 2015 – has admitted she has been adorning the designer brand’s garments ever since she was a baby, and the “first memory” she has of her wearing the label is when she used play dress up with her mother Vanessa Paridis’ expensive clothes.
Speaking to WWD, the style icon – who is also the daughter of actor Johnny Depp – said: “My first memory of wearing Chanel was probably when I was still in diapers, going into my mom’s closet and picking out her Chanel heels and her dresses and stuff, even though I was swimming in them.
“I would put on all her Chanel stuff and carry around her bags and everything, so it was probably my first dress up memory as well.”
And it is not only the prestigious label that has been in Lily’s life for many years, but the brand’s creative director Karl Lagerfeld, as she has revealed the mogul was always present during her childhood.
Speaking about the 84-year-old creative mastermind, she said: “I’ve known [Karl] since I was eight – he’s definitely somebody who has been in my life since I was little. I definitely have a lot of Chanel memories growing up.”
And Lily has hailed Karl for his innovative designs.
She said: “The amount of stuff that he comes up with…the amount of creativity in his head, that he creates each year and has created over his entire life, the different ideas he has had. He’s really somebody who has managed to evolve but never stray from this level of artistry and precision. But at the same thing he’s never done the same thing twice.”
Lily has admitted she is always “blown away” by the designer garments, especially hate couture products.
She explained: “I was at the atelier with my mom — she was having a fitting or something — and she went up to say hi and I was with her,” she said, before adding praise for the designer.
“I’m always blown away by all of it. Especially haute couture — I’m always just so amazed by it and the gowns are always incredible,” she said. “But all of it is a different aspect of the look. I love a bag, I love jewellery. Chanel clothing and haute couture can never let you down.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Emmy Rossum is “very excited” to partner with Burt’s Bees Beauty.
The 31-year-old actress has been announced as the face of the cosmetics brand’s new campaign I Am Not Synthetic, and the star is honoured to join forces with the label because she has always been a fan of the company and is a huge fan of their tinted lip balm.
Speaking to PEOPLE, the ‘Shameless’ star – who portrays Fiona Gallagher in the American series – said: “I’ve been using Burt’s Bees products on ‘Shameless’ for a long time. [My character] Fiona has a very natural look. The Burt’s Bees tinted lip balm is all we use on Fiona, and their eyeliner as well. So I was very excited to get involved with the campaign. The products themselves are made with natural ingredients and not tested on animals and that really hit home on a number of levels for me.
“So this campaign is not just about being synthetic, it’s the idea of being a real woman.
“The visuals of the campaign feature real women who are embracing their authentic beauty. They are not feeling pressure to conform to a homogenised or overly artificial idea of beauty and they’re kind of just bringing out their natural beauty.”
“Having a lipstick that has jojoba oil and other things in it that makes it feel really nourishing is really nice.”
Not only does Emmy swear by Burt’s Bees lip products but she also is an avid user of their face oil, which she uses as a highlighter to accentuate her features.
She explained: “I like it not only before bed but I like it even over makeup. In lieu of highlighter, put some on your cheekbones, above your cupid’s bow, and down your nose — it makes your face look really healthy and moisturised.”
Emmy has revealed she doesn’t wear a face full of make-up because her husband Sam Esmail loves the “blue vein” under her eye.
The ‘The Day After Tomorrow’ star explained: “My husband’s favourite thing about my face is the blue vein under my eye, so I don’t often wear under eye concealer in my everyday life because he likes to be able to see my actual face. So I think it’s the idea of being true to yourself and being the best version of yourself and not the best version of somebody else.”

Asked about working in the same industry as her family, she said: “Yes, definitely! It always helps to be able to talk to someone who can relate to what you’re going through. I love being on set with Presley because it makes both of us feel more comfortable and we always have a lot of fun.”

Speaking to E! News about the 21-year-old beauty, Kaia said: “I think [Kendall] does a really good job about having a life outside of [work] and staying with your friends and not separating yourself too much, so I’ve just kind of learned that from her.”
Kaia has revealed she regularly hears kind words about her mother, who has been credited as the “most professional person” in the fashion industry, and she hopes one day she will be praised by her colleagues.
Speaking about her 51-year-old parent, she said: “She gives me advice for life more than modelling, like ‘Be on time,’ which is really important in the industry we’re both in. And to be kind to everyone. Everyone that I’ve worked with says she’s the most professional person that they work with, so I could only hope that they say the something about me.”
Meanwhile, Kaia is heartbroken she is not the same size as Cindy and cannot fit into her clothes or shoes yet.
She said: “My mom and I aren’t the same size. She’s a bit taller. And we’re not the same shoe size either, which is heartbreaking.”

She said: “I know that we have a lot of the same mannerisms and, obviously, look a little bit alike, but yeah, I’d say we have different senses of humour and stuff like that.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Zendaya is inspired by “the fashion of the decades”.
The 21-year-old actress – who launched her own label Daya by Zendaya in 2015 – believes trends “just repeat” over time, and the star “loves exploring” outfits from different genres and bringing a “modern” twist to a classic outfit.
Speaking to PEOPLE about her style choices, the brunette beauty said: “I think I’m always just very inspired by the fashion of the decades. When you go back in time and kind of explore those silhouettes and kind of find a modern way to do it, everything in fashion just repeats. It’s just the same thing, just repeating. So when you latch on to something from the past, it’s almost like it’s new again, because we haven’t seen it in a while. So I love exploring with different things from different decades. It’s fun.”
And the ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ star has admitted fashion also gives her a boost of confidence.
She explained: “I think for me, I really have been lucky to find, through fashion, a lot of confidence. For me, dressing up and trying new things is a form of exploring my confidence, exploring what I like, exploring what I enjoy.
And though some people may dread dressing up for a star studded bash, Zendaya loves it because she feels she takes on an “alter ego”.
She added: “When I go on carpets, for some people, some people hate this part. This is my favourite part. I can just go to a red carpet and just go home, because it’s like my favourite part is the red carpets. That’s sometimes opposite for people, but I enjoy it. It’s fun for me
“I get to be these different characters. It’s like an alter ego.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen wanted to number their new fragrances.
The 31-year-old twins have launched their new perfumes named Nirvana French Grey and Nirvana Amethyst, and the stars have admitted they initially wanted to name their scents “One, Two, Three”, before they decided on titles referring to colour.
Speaking to Allure Online, Mary-Kate said: “We actually originally wanted One, Two, Three, Four.”
Ashley added: “But decided to go with colour instead.”
And the ‘New York Minute’ actresses said the biggest “struggle” they faced was settling on a name for their products.
The fashion designers – who co-founded The Row as well as Elizabeth and James – explained: “That was the struggle in the beginning, because we really thought we were just going to do Black and White. But then when we decided we wanted to do more fragrances. So then we had to ask ourselves, ‘What does the bottle look like? What’s the story we’re telling?’ If we continued to use solid colours, like Black and White, those would be quite shocking. So then it had to become a bit more transparent.”
Ashley added: “We always wanted it to eventually become lighter…”
Mary-Kate continued: “Become lighter and friendlier. It has evolved in that way. Even the packaging, the gifting, we’ve definitely evolved. And fragrance has such a long lead time as well. French Grey and Amethyst, I feel like we worked on them last year, so I’m happy everyone finally gets to explore and experience them.”
However the pair overcame the hurdles, and have admitted they enjoyed the “whole experience” of creating the cosmetic products.
Mary-Kate said: “I knew that everyone took to fragrance differently, but I didn’t realise how different a fragrance, like even a single note, sits on different skin. I could love it on myself and not like it on Ashley, or like something on someone else that I don’t like on me. I found that so interesting. I love notes, I love scents, I like pretending I’m a nose.
“I like the whole experience. I like what it does to your memory and how you use all your senses, and the emotion that it strikes up, it’s actually pretty amazing.”
“I think we like similar notes, like if you look at notes individually. Sometimes Ashley’s more sensitive to things that are overly fragrant, so I like to break down every scent and know, what is the top note? The bottom note? I want to know how much water or alcohol is in each scent. If I don’t like a scent, I take out a certain note to see if we like two scents together and then if not, we go back to square one. And then we smell every single musk note, every single sandalwood, every single peony, because there’s so many different version of each note and they all react differently. Something that you like on its own, or that you don’t like on its own, can be partnered with something else that makes it come to life.”
Mary-Kate and Ashley have hinted they are planning to expand their beauty range.
Ashley said: “The fragrance is also in the dry shampoo as well, but yes, there are other things within of beauty that Mary-Kate and I are attracted to and have done a lot of research on.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Cate Blanchett has hailed Giorgio Armani as a “style icon”.
The 48-year-old actress was awarded the Style Icon Award at this year’s InStyle Awards, which took place at the Getty centre in Los Angeles on Monday night (23.10.17), but the ‘Carol’ star has credited the 83-year-old fashion designer – who founded the Italian fashion house in 1975 – as the ultimate idol and “profound mentor” for her.
Speaking at the star-studded ceremony, the blonde-haired beauty said: “You get to inhabit these extraordinarily … beautifully constructed gowns by geniuses. I really do have to thank Mr. Armani, who’s a style icon in and of himself and who’s been such a profound mentor for me.”
And the ‘Thor: Ragnarok’ star has also women who have a “physical presence” and are not “self conscious” as being the “true icons of style”.
She added: “For me, the true icons of style, and I think there’s a bit of a theme emerging here tonight, it’s that for me it’s always those women who’ve been utterly themselves without apology–whose physical presence and their aesthetic is really integrated in a non self-conscious way.
“Women who know how they look, it’s not all of who they are but just an extension of that, and it’s about women who feel free to wear what they want when they want and how they want to wear it.”
During the evening fellow actress Zendaya picked up the Style Star gong, and, similar to Cate, the brunette beauty also spoke out about how the fashion business has developed.
The 21-year-old said:”What we’ve created with fashion goes beyond just clothes and hair and makeup. We’ve created a platform to show different types of beauty.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Kaia Gerber is desperate to wear her mother Cindy Crawford’s “vintage pieces”.
The 16-year-old model – who made her Fashion Week debut earlier this year – has admitted she often “raids” her parent’s closet, and she is waiting for a day she can don the 51-ear-old’s iconic outfits.
Speaking to Teen Vogue, she said: “I sometimes raid her vintage pieces which are really amazing. I’m going to pull those out one day. It’s only a question of: can we do it? She’s had such good moments.”
And the brunette beauty has revealed her mother has advised her not to “get stressed” by her career and gracing the catwalk for prestigious labels.
Asked about her mother’s tips, she said: “She just told me to be myself. That’s important to be reminded of. She told me that if I take it day by day, then I won’t get stressed. And also to appreciate it.”
Kaia has revealed she also receives words of wisdom from fellow model Karlie Kloss.
The fashion muse added: “I met Karlie before I had even started modelling. She was so sweet and was always there for me. She’s been through all this herself and she knows about it better than anyone. Having someone who has experienced it on your side and supporting you is really nice. The way she uses her platform for good is really inspiring for all young women.”
Kaia has admitted her education is “technically” what she does, and her modelling is simply something she enjoys doing in her “free time”.
She said: “I’m a junior in high school, so that’s technically what I do. Modelling is really what I do during my free time. It’s fun for me, so it doesn’t feel like work. I choose to do it. It’s definitely a lot of work, but because I appreciate them both so much, I don’t let that get to me. It’s what I want to be doing.”
However, Kaia has admitted it is “not easy” studying Advanced Placement courses.
Speaking about her education, she said: “I did three hours of AP Calculus. It’s not easy, but it’s really interesting to me. I like math, which sounds really nerdy. I get to learn things through travelling, but I also get to learn cool things through school. So, I get both ends of it.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Cara Delevingne started modelling to “please people”.
The 25-year-old catwalk icon – who signed to Storm model Management in 2009 – has admitted her career in the fashion industry came at a time in her life when she wanted to impress other people, and she has hinted she took on the role to “run away” from her problems.
Speaking to Stellar magazine about her job, the star said: “Modelling came at a time in my life where I wanted to please people. I don’t know if it was the modelling or the fact I was just doing things to run away from my own problems. I wasn’t dealing with things that were going on emotionally. That was why I ended up being unhappy.”
And though Cara has admitted she became “unhappy” because she was constantly trying to please other people, she has revealed pursuing her acting career helped her to “reflect” on her feelings.
The ‘Suicide Squad’ actress added: “Being an actor helped me reflect on my own emotions, be able to express them more, be in the moment.”
Cara believes models are judged “so quickly” and people “assume there’s nothing underneath” their beauty.
She said: “Critics can judge models so quickly. Just because models are known for their beauty or the way they look, some critics assume there’s nothing underneath. I don’t know if I have to prove myself, exactly — I’m going to carry on doing what I love and if people don’t like it, they don’t like it.”
And the ‘Paper Towns’ star has revealed she used to be tormented for her appearance because of her monobrow, which has become her signature feature.
She explained: “People would tease me because they were so big; I used to have a bit of a monobrow. I felt quite embarrassed and ashamed of them — I wanted to be like everybody else. But it was my mother who said, ‘Please don’t touch them. They’re your best feature.'”

OHMYGOSSIP — Grace Jones used to be “addicted” to weight lifting.
The 69-year-old singer and model – who was signed to Wilhelmina Modelling agency aged 18 – has admitted she used to work out “every morning and every evening” and would even train with Arnold Schwarzenegger in a bid to stay in shape, although she doesn’t weight lift “anymore”.
Speaking to Time Out magazine, the star said: “I don’t do weightlifting any more, though. I used to be addicted to it. I was doing it every morning and every evening. Don’t forget I was working out with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Dolph Lundgren. These are serious bodybuilders.
“Nowadays I just have to make sure I can still pull up my whole body by myself.”
Although the ‘Slave to the Rhythm’ has ditched the weights, she has admitted she maintains her slender frame by carrying out cardio sessions instead.
Asked how she stays in shape, she said: “Oh my goodness. Well, I swim, I cycle. I do soft sports now. And of course it helps if you’re born with it too. ”
Meanwhile, Grace has revealed when she goes on a night out the “most important thing” for her is to be left alone and not spoken to so she can dance.
She explained: “Oh definitely. But I have to party by myself. I don’t like to talk at parties. Dancing is the most important thing for me.
