Originally created by Gina Brooke, Shu Uemura Artistic Director, exclusively for Madonna - These custom mink false eyelashes are adorned with 0.75 carats total weight of hand-faceted diamonds featuring featuring a unique new diamond cut - the “Star Shimmer Cut”. The Japanese make-up man Shu Uemura created false lashes of exception for more glamour of the Madonna. Indeed, on his new album “Confession One A Dance Floor”, Madonna raises a make-up disco music of the more etincelants. What moreover adapted to this style than of diamonds? Here is how the idea came to Mr Shu Uemura to create false mink lashes decorated with these invaluable stones. A concept which is appropriate very well for this star who forever be cold with the eyes. And for all those which could not spend ten thousand dollars for a pair of false lashes, a version strass is currently available in order to dazzle the time of one evening. A single pair of the $10,000 Shu Uemura false eyelashes will be exclusively available at seven Neiman Marcus stores.

PARIS, March 2, 2006 – After several seasons on the fashion critical-list, the sexy, drapey, polka-dotted legacy of Emanuel Ungaro is at last showing signs of a heartbeat, having been jump-started by new ownership, and fresh design leadership from the Norwegian-American Peter Dundas. The show held out hope that somebody young and hot might finally want to wrap herself in Ungaro, thanks to the collection of Parisian glam-rock chic that came down the red-lacquered runway.
Apparently, what was on display was the result of some emergency surgery: the 40-year-old Dundas only recently resigned from Roberto Cavalli. Still, his extensive experience—which includes postings at Gaultier and Lacroix—equipped him to create something new but recognizably Ungaro-ish out of the old house standards. He did a good job of referencing the leg-of-mutton-sleeved, tight-waisted silhouette from the jacket-and-coat archive, and he even managed to blow the aura of staleness off the signature drapery which last looked good in the eighties. Old-school onlookers might find fault, since some of this was achieved with wrapping and knotting, rather than fairy-fingered couture techniques. Yet it was precisely those draped dresses—some of which contrasted Ungaro’s chiffon leopard prints and bold dots in scarf-like hip-ties against plain covered-up tops—that made the look suddenly jump to modernity. However, the sexiest numbers by far were those realized entirely in slinky cashmere jersey, over turtlenecks—one a short silver-gray one-shouldered affair, and the other a stunning slim full-length lipstick-red gown with an erotically bound waist. It was quite enough to mark Dundas as a name to watch.
