“She’s one of my fashion girls — she loves fashion and is very spirited when it comes down to it.” So says veteran stylist Petra Flannery about one of her A-list longtime clients, Zoe Saldaña. And it shows. The actress, who moves seamlessly from blockbuster franchises like Avatar and Guardians of the Galaxy to indie fare like Jacques Audiard’s Emilia Perez, the film that leads her back to the Palais this year, catches eyes whenever she steps on a red carpet. On the eve of her return, Flannery looks back on their memorable Cannes collaborations and teases what to expect this year: “The beautiful premiere moments are a really magical stage for fashion. These are the moments that we live for.”

In episode two of Netflix's Halston, fashion publicist Eleanor Lambert (Kelly Bishop) pressures Halston (Ewan McGregor) to participate in the Battle of Versailles Fashion Show in 1973. Although it's relatively unknown outside of the style world, the Battle of Versailles switched up the industry forever. Featuring the very best of American and French fashion, the event was meant to be a fundraiser to restore the Palace of Versailles. It was a bit of a faceoff as well, with American designers Oscar de la Renta, Bill Blass, Anne Klein, Halston, and Stephen Burrows going up against French icons Yves Saint Laurent, Hubert de Givenchy, Pierre Cardin, Christian Dior, Emanuel Ungaro, and Marc Bohan. And yes, Josephine Baker and Liza Minnelli were very much in attendance!
Needless to say, the showcase really did exist and essentially kicked off the tradition of Paris Fashion Week. If you're wondering if the costumes and designs in Halston are accurate,...

Known for his bold choice of color & prints, tailoring skills and draping abilities as well as his work on John Cassavetes’ Gloria, iconic French fashion designer Emanuel Ungaro died on Saturday. He was 86.
Details about his death are unknown, but the official Instagram account of his namesake fashion house confirmed his passing posting multiple pictures of the legend at work with the captions in both French and English that said: “The Fashion House he founded in 1965 still bearing his name cries today this extremely talented Couturier. He will stay in our memories as the Master of sensuality, colours and flamboyance.”
Ungaro was born in Aix-en-Province in the south of France in 1933. He learned his tailoring skills while working for his father, who was also a tailor.
He went on to work for another iconic designer by the name of Cristóbal Balenciaga while in Paris before going on to work for the legendary André Courrèges.

In 2008, Lindsay Lohan stepped into the fashion world with the launch of 6126 leggings.

No plain, boring stretchy maternity tees and rumpled maxi dresses for Blake Lively! At least not all the time. The 28-year-old's actress' pregnancy style continues to prove to be hotter than most people's "normal" style during her second time around as well. Lively stepped out in New York City Friday en route to The Tonight Show wearing a particularly daring outfit, showcasing her baby bump as well as some skin in a black and white Emanuel Ungaro spring 2016 Ready-to-Wear cut-out dress with flowers and buckled straps across the front and a tea-length pleated woven skirt.

Blake Lively was spotted leaving the Greenwich Hotel in NYC on Friday looking all dolled up and ready for a fun night on the town. The actress, who is pregnant with her second child, wore a black and white Emanuel Ungaro dress with flowers and buckled straps. Blake has been busy promoting both The Shallows and Café Society and was heading to an appearance on The Tonight Show to talk up her work; she stunned in a Carolina Herrera minidress at the Café Socierty premiere earlier this week, where she linked up with costar Kristen Stewart and director Woody Allen. In addition to making the promotional rounds in a series of gorgeous maternity looks, Blake has made time to kick back and relax with her famous friends. Not only did she attend Taylor Swift's high-profile Fourth of July party, but she also reunited with her Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants castmates Alexis Bledel,...

Juggling A Wrinkle In Time and Intelligent Life, in-demand filmmaker Ava DuVernay (Selma) has been tapped to direct The Battle of Versailles for HBO.
Deadline has the scoop, revealing that despite a jam-packed slate, DuVernay is still carving out time to take on new projects, with the latest now being an adaptation of Robin Givhan’s titular novel.
While the evocative title paints a wartime thriller, The Battle of Versailles charts a fateful night in world fashion when, in November of 1973, the top brass of French designers – including Yves Saint Laurent, Hubert de Givenchy, Pierre Cardin, Emanuel Ungaro and Christian Dior’s Marc Bohan – locked horns with five American designers.
Writing them off as relative unknowns from the get-go, it wasn’t long before the likes of Oscar de la Renta, Bill Blass, Halston, Stephen Burrows and Anne Klein began to make a name for themselves in the Palace of Versailles,...

Though she's committed to two other sci-fi projects and Own's "Queen Sugar" drama series, "Selma" helmer Ava DuVernay has taken on another gig - she's set to direct "The Battle Of Versailles" for HBO Films.
DuVernay and Michael Starrbury will co-write the film based on fashion journalist Robin Givhan's 2015 non-fiction novel which deals with the 1973 Palace of Versailles fashion show which served as a fundraiser for the restoration of King Louis Xiv's palace.
The show pitted the top five French designers (Yves Saint Laurent, Hubert de Givenchy, Pierre Cardin, Emanuel Ungaro, and Marc Bohan of Christian Dior) against five then-unknown Americans (Oscar de la Renta, Bill Blass, Halston, Stephen Burrows and Anne Klein, who brought along her then-assistant Donna Karan) in front of an audience of the world's social elite.

Last month, Ava DuVernay signed up to direct two projects in quick succession: Disney's "A Wrinkle In Time" and the sci-fi flick, "Intelligent Life," which is due to be the filmmakers's next movie, with production kicking off this summer. But she's not yet done adding projects to her plate. The latest is "The Battle Of Versailles," which is not the period picture that you'd think it might be. Instead, it's a fashion world drama centered around the November 28, 1973 fashion show that took place at the Palace of Versailles that was a "Captain America: Civil War" style battle between five French designers (Yves Saint Laurent, Hubert de Givenchy, Pierre Cardin, Emanuel Ungaro, and Marc Bohan of Christian Dior) and an American team (Oscar de la Renta, Bill Blass, Anne Klein, Halston, Stephen Burrows and Anne Klein), with both sides showing off their goods in front of the world's elite.

To find this week's leaders in chic, we had to look no further than the South of France: The ladies in Cannes are simply killing it, which is why our roundup is an ode to, well, them. First, we have to note that our jaws are still unhinged from the plunging pink Emanuel Ungaro frock that Miranda Kerr stepped out in on May 14 for the Magnum black and pink ice cream launch party. She paired her slit-to-there (and cut-to-there) gown with nude Giuseppe Zanotti sandals and a glittery Oroton clutch, although all eyes were on, well, you know. Naomi Watts gave us another reason for pause when she hit the 2015 Cannes Film Festival red carpet in a dove-gray Elie Saab Couture gown featuring a breathtaking feather skirt (all...

Miranda Kerr is one hot mama! The gorgeous Victoria's Secret alum stole the spotlight at the Magnum Pink and Black Party during the 68th Annual Cannes Film Festival in Cannes, France on Thursday. The mother-of-one looked stunning in her plunging pink Emanuel Ungaro gown. Kerr finished her red carpet look with a sparkly silver clutch, white Giuseppe Zanotti strappy sandals, Lorraine Schwartz tear-drop diamond earrings and styled her long brown tresses in soft curls. The 32-year-old model has kept a low-profile since separating with ex-hubby Orlando Bloom in 2013 -- she's been spending her time focusing on their adorable son Flynn and her beauty brand. "For the record, I’m single," she told the Australian edition of Harper's Bazaar earlier this year. "What I’m trying to do right now, as I've always been the girl with the boyfriend, is to find that comfort within myself. Because it’s quite easy...

Jennifer Aniston dares to bare it all on the red carpet.
Who needs a bra when you're Jennifer Aniston?
Jennifer, 45, was clad in her usual black at the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival premiere of her new film Cake on Monday in Toronto, Canada, but it's what she left out that had jaws dropping.
Upon closer inspection of her semi-sheer black Valentino top, it's very clear that the Friends star decided to ditch the bra for her latest red carpet appearance.
Photos: Hollywood's Worst Wardrobe Malfunctions
An Emanuel Ungaro skirt, black Christian Louboutin heels and Jennifer Meyer jewels completed the look, though it's safe to say that probably nobody was paying attention to her accessories.
Between Jennifer's top and her fiancé Justin Theroux's sweatpants, we're thinking this couple definitely knows how to make the most of their clothing!

We're guessing it was somewhere near the back with the rest of the clothes reserved for Club Kid parties and Halloween costume contests. Unless this striped insanity by Emanuel Ungaro was part of the "Live It Up" singer's original performance look? Before she settled on "Jenny from the Block" was she "JBuzz the Stinging Sensation?"

It's two sexy stars in the same leopard dress! On Sunday, Katy Perry wore the long-sleeved Emanuel Ungaro Fall 2013 ensemble to the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards. Perry finished her look with a slicked-back ponytail and black and gold Celine heels. The 28-year-old has been busy promoting her latest single "Roar," so the animal print number couldn't be more appropriate for the music award show!But she isn't the only beauty to rock the sexy slit dress -- in May, Canadian model Coco Rocha sported a longer version of the dress to the Met Gala. Coco completed her look with her hair pulled back, sporting black ankle boots for the Punk: Chaos to Couture event. While we love the dress on both brunette beauties, we have to give the nod to Katy for her sexier (and shorter) version.But your vote is the one that counts -- who do you think wore it better?...

We thought the MTV Video Music Awards were supposed to be fashion's most original night out, and yet it looks like Katy Perry just recycled Coco Rocha's Met Ball look! Word to the wise, Katy. If you're going to copy a world-class supermodel, don't pick the most memorable dress she's every worn! We admit that this leopard-covered Emanuel Ungaro is a better fit for the music vs. museum crowd, but once it's out there, it's out there, especially when it's this crazy a couture. Aside from very blunt bangs, the only thing that separates these two styles is the length. The "Roar" singer chose a slightly shorter version of the slinky design giving more attention to her surprisingly...

Katy Perry let her animal side shine at Sunday night's VMAs in Brooklyn. First, she hit the red carpet in an embellished Emanuel Ungaro dress (complete with a grill) and later closed the big show with a standout performance of her new hit single, "Roar", under the Brooklyn Bridge. It was Katy's first time performing at the VMAs since 2009, and she definitely made a triumphant return. The star put on a Rocky-themed show in a full-scale boxing ring, baring her belly in a printed sports bra and silk shorts, and was surrounded by giant gold tigers as she "roared" under the illuminated bridge.

It takes an event as star-studded as the MTV Video Music Awards to bring together the likes of Katy Perry and Richard Simmons, who embraced one another on the red carpet.
Perry looked pretty fierce in her glittery Emanuel Ungaro leopard minidress, but she still appeared to be a bit overwhelmed by the fitness guru, who actually bowed and kissed her hand when he met the pop star. It took her a second, but Perry embraced the unexpected greeting from Simmons, and was all smiles as the two posed for photos together.

A month ago, Barbara Palvin was known in the modeling world, but she was hardly a tabloid figure. All it takes is one little date with world famous pop star Justin Bieber to get the chatter chatting, though, and by the time the Victoria's Secret fashion show aired on Tuesday night, Palvin's name was all over the blogs.
After they taped the fashion show last month, Bieber -- who was allegedly having problems in his relationship with Selena Gomez -- spent an evening in Palvin's company. According to reports, they went to see "The Lion King" on Broadway together, and then hung out with some of Bieber's pals at an NYC hotel. When Gomez saw photos of the Victoria's Secret model and Bieber on Instagram, she wasn't too pleased, and the couple headed into a tumultuous spot in their relationship, including public fights and some Los Angeles dramatics.

The famous NYC-based fashion brand has had a turbulent past, so what’s next for the fashion house?
Vogue magazine first reported that fabulous style icon Sarah Jessica Parker was selected as the President and Chief Creative Officer of Halston’s Heritage line back in 2007, but is sadly stepping down only a few years later!
When she was first hired, Sarah didn’t pretend that she was super experienced in the behind-the-scenes aspect of the fashion world, admitting “You could make many arguments as to why I am not qualified. I would say that I am very aware of the enormity of the titles, and how important they are, and my response is that they (the board) felt confident in their decision.”
While Sarah was very involved at the beginning, she reportedly had to spend more and more time on movie sets than in the showroom.

Three outfit changes in 24 hours?! Oh, the fabulous life of a Hollywood starlet. Gossip girl Leighton Meester was all over New York City yesterday promoting various projects. And each stop required a different couture ensemble, natch. Let's discuss... Leight started off by promoting her new thriller, The Roommate, at the Apple store in SoHo. Clad in a black-and-tan Giambattista Valli dress and sick Brian Atwood leopard-print lace-up heels, the fashionista looked chic and adorable. Then it was off to Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, where the actress showed off her gams in a winter floral Emanuel Ungaro mini and ankle-strap Pierre Hardy stilettos. Still looking pretty and...

What get-up did you really love on the star?
With The Roomate hitting theatres on Feb. 4, Leighton Meester has been everywhere promoting her most recent flick — but luckily she has just enough time to change on Feb. 1, when she turned up wearing three different get-ups in NYC!
First, the star turned up to tape Late Night with Jimmy Fallon in a look I absolutely loved — an Emanuel Ungaro pre-fall 2011 sequined long sleeve floral mini dress. I thought she looked so stylish, finishing off the look with a pair of Pierre Hardy sandals.
For her next appearance, Leighton joined her co-star, Minka Kelly, at the Soho Apple store for a meet the actors event, where she opted for a chic yet edgy Giambattista Valli pre-fall 2011 color-block dress. While Leighton usually opts for very fashion-forward looks, it was nice to see her something a little more simple — yet still totally chic! She...

It's been an incredible year in the world of showbiz, with the usual headline-grabbing antics, scandal, sleaze, celebrity births, star weddings, and bitter break-ups. Here, WENN takes a look back at the first six months of 2010...
January
Matthew McConaughey became the first new celebrity dad of 2010 when he and Camila Alves welcomed baby Vida into the world, but they weren't the only couple celebrating births. Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell experienced the joys of fatherhood all over again, while supermodel Claudia Schiffer and actress Monica Bellucci were bursting with excitement after announcing their pregnancies.
Love was certainly in the air - actor Josh Duhamel renewed his vows with Fergie, and British model Sophie Dahl became Mrs. Jamie Cullum. Russell Brand confirmed plans to wed Katy Perry, and Michael Buble got down on bended knee to propose to model Luisana Lopilato.
The same couldn't be said for Charlize Theron and Stuart Townsend - they called it quits after nine years together. A cancer-stricken Dennis Hopper filed for divorce from his wife, and sporting pair Chris Evert and Greg Norman finalised the dissolution of their 18-month marriage.
There were new troubles for embattled celebrity offspring - Farrah Fawcett and Ryan O'Neal's boy Redmond was jailed after another drugs bust, and the future was bleak for Michael Douglas' actor son Cameron, who prepared for a lengthy prison sentence after pleading guilty to drug trafficking charges.
Meanwhile, illusionist David Copperfield was cleared of rape allegations, and actor Rip Torn was arrested after he was found passed out on the floor of a Connecticut bank, clutching a gun. Diff'rent Strokes star Gary Coleman was arrested on allegations of domestic assault and then hospitalised following a number of seizures.
Bad health also struck Dexter's Michael C. Hall, who was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma, just as Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber revealed he had overcome prostate cancer.
The music industry mourned the death of R&B legend Teddy Pendergrass when he lost his battle with colon cancer, while the literary world was hit hard with the passing of beloved author J.D. Salinger.
Awards season was in full swing and Beyonce, Kings of Leon and Taylor Swift ruled the 2010 Grammy Awards, while director James Cameron's Avatar collected top honours at the Golden Globes and the Critics' Choice Movie Awards.
In the TV world, Simon Cowell confirmed he was stepping down as an American Idol judge, Miley Cyrus announced she was turning her back on Hannah Montana, and Ugly Betty got the axe from network executives.
Elsewhere, George Clooney led the Hope For Haiti Now telethon to raise funds for the Haitian victims of the 12 January earthquake, enlisting pals Jack Nicholson, Ben Affleck and Mel Gibson to man the phones as Madonna, Bono and Beyonce performed for charity. Clooney, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Sandra Bullock and Gisele Bundchen all led by example and donated huge sums to the relief efforts, and the telethon raised more than $57 million (£35.6 million).
Jessica Biel and Emile Hirsch fronted another big charity drive when they joined a team of stars to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, drawing attention to Africa's chronic water shortage. They reached the Tanzanian peak for the Summit on the Summit: Kilimanjaro campaign on 12 January, six days after embarking on the challenge.
February
February was marked by tragedy when celebrated fashion designer Alexander Mcqueen was found dead after hanging himself at his London home. Meanwhile, investigations into Michael Jackson’s death in June, 2009 loomed as coroner’s officials determined acute intoxication of powerful anaesthetic Propofol was the cause. The ruling prompted prosecutors to file involuntary manslaughter charges against his former doctor Conrad Murray. Officials also ruled Brittany Murphy’s death in December, 2009 was accidental and caused by pneumonia, aided by anaemia and drug intoxication. Andrew Koenig’s family continued to mourn after his body was found in Vancouver following an apparent suicide. Marie Osmond also grieved the apparent suicide death of her 18-year-old son.
Nancy Kerrigan’s family was rocked by controversy after her brother, Mark, became the target of an investigation of their father’s homicide. Meanwhile, Etta James’ son revealed the singer had been secretly battling Alzheimer's disease for more than a year.
But there were still celebrations in Hollywood. James Cameron’s sci-fi film Avatar became the highest grossing movie in the U.S. and the U.K. His ex-wife, Kathryn Bigelow, had something to boast about too when her war drama, The Hurt Locker, scored nine Oscar nods, the same amount as Cameron’s cinematic sensation. She also won top awards at the BAFTAs.
The world watched as Canada's brightest stars including Bryan Adams, Nelly Furtado, K.D. lang and Joni Mitchell teamed up to help launch the Winter Olympics in the country. And in London, Lady Gaga walked away with the Brit Awards’ top honours. Beatles drummer Ringo Starr unveiled his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and The Beatles' favourite recording studio Abbey Road was awarded historic status by the British government. Celine Dion, Kanye West, and Jennifer Hudson were among singers who recorded vocals for Quincy Jones and Lionel Richie's revamped We Are The World track to raise money for earthquake-ravaged Haiti. The country's biggest celebrity activist Sean Penn was caught in controversy and charged with criminal battery and vandalism following a violent run-in with a paparazzo, while Lil Wayne celebrated winning a postponement on his prison sentence for weapons possession.
It was a romantic month for several stars who announced plans to wed, including Nicole Richie and Joel Madden, Hilary Duff and ice hockey ace Mike Comrie, and Dave Annabelle and Odette Yustman. Kristen Bell revealed boyfriend Dax Shepard had proposed back in December, 2009. Meanwhile, Sienna Miller, who called off her engagement to Jude Law in 2006, rekindled her romance with the actor. Several stars welcomed bundles of joy, including Padma Lakshmi, Boris Becker, Sarah Jane Morris and Gary Busey. February wasn’t such a loved-up month for Ryan Phillippe and Abbie Cornish, or Cheryl Cole and her soccer star husband Ashley - both couples split. John Mayer risked the wrath of ex Jessica Simpson after referring to her as “sexual napalm”.
Public scandal took over headlines when Tiger Woods finally addressed reports he cheated on ex-wife Elin Nordegren with several mistresses and announced plans to return to rehab for sex therapy. Exes waged war in court, including Dennis Hopper, who won a restraining order against his estranged wife. Charlie Sheen was charged with felony menacing, third degree assault and misdemeanour criminal mischief stemming from an alleged altercation with his now-estranged wife, Brooke Mueller. Both parties checked in to rehab.
March
It was a shocking way to start the spring as March saw two of Hollywood's biggest star couples announce break-ups - Kate Winslet parted ways with her second husband Sam Mendes after seven years and Sandra Bullock's Oscar win was overshadowed after she found out partner Jesse James had cheated on her.
March wasn't any better for Take That's Mark Owen, who was also accused of cheating on his longtime girlfriend Emma Ferguson with 10 women - and he later revealed he's a struggling alcoholic and checked himself into rehab.
More scandals came as the month progressed, with fiery supermodel Naomi Campbell accused of attacking her driver by striking him on the head, and Michael Jackson's mum Katherine visited by welfare officials in Los Angeles over allegations one of her grandkids had purchased a stun gun.
Rapper J-Kwon was reported as a missing person after he failed to get in contact with his loved ones for more than a month, and reclusive R&B star D'Angelo was arrested in New York for offering an undercover cop cash for oral sex.
Other stars facing a tough time included Lil Wayne, who began an eight-month stretch behind bars stemming from a 2007 weapon possession arrest, and Lindsay Lohan, who had a fashion flop on her hands after being axed as the artistic advisor of style house Emanuel Ungaro following a slated catwalk collection.
But it wasn't all doom and gloom - Kathryn Bigelow made Oscars history when she became the first female to land the top director Academy Award for her war movie The Hurt Locker, beating ex-husband James Cameron in the process. Music mogul Simon Cowell confirmed his engagement to make-up artist Mezhgan Hussainy while others to put a ring on it included Friends star David Schwimmer, who proposed to his photographer girlfriend Zoe Buckman, and Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher, who enjoyed a small private wedding ceremony in Paris, France.
There was also a string of spring babies - Shakespeare In Love star Joseph Fiennes became a first-time father after welcoming a daughter, while Kevin Costner announced he was set to become a dad for a seventh time. Hollywood stars Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart also became parents for the first time after the actress gave birth to a baby girl.
While March saw ups and downs for some of Tinseltown's finest, others were looking on the bright side - Ricky Martin confirmed the worst kept secret in pop by announcing he's homosexual, while Will & Grace star Sean Hayes also decided to come out of the closet and spoke for the first time about his sexuality.
Every fan of 1980s movies was left devastated after hearing Corey Haim had died from a drug overdose - the Lost Boys star was aged 38. The month also saw the passings of Little Women star Richard Stapley, veteran British actor Martin Benson and beloved U.S. TV star Fess Parker.
April
The eruption of a volcano in Iceland at the end of March meant the following month was dogged by stories of stranded stars as a giant ash cloud swept over northern Europe and closed airports across the continent.
California's Coachella festival was under threat as a number of acts cancelled their slots when they were unable to fly out to the U.S.
Several movie premieres were also affected in the chaos - the Iron Man 2 red carpet event in London was moved to Los Angeles when stars including Robert Downey, Jr. were unable to jet to Britain. Miley Cyrus also scrapped plans to unveil her film The Last Song in the British capital due to the cancelled flights.
TV stars Chace Crawford and Kiefer Sutherland were both stranded in London after the ash cloud hit, and the 24 actor made the most of his extended stay by taking trips to some of Britain's best-known landmarks, including a day out to visit Stonehenge.
But many celebrities refused to let a little bit of volcano ash get in the way of their work - Metallica continued their tour by swapping planes for roads and railways, while Status Quo drove back to Britain after finding themselves stuck in Russia. John Cleese was stranded in Norway, so he paid $4,950 (£3,300) for a taxi to take him to Belgium, where he caught a train back to London.
In non-volcano-related news, Sandra Bullock sent shockwaves through the showbiz world when she came out fighting after her husband Jesse James' cheating scandal in March. The Oscar winner announced she had filed for divorce and stunned the world by revealing she had also adopted a baby son, Louis. Bullock admitted the couple had taken charge of their new son back in January, but kept the news quiet and after splitting from James she resolved to raise the baby on her own.
Another high profile celebrity split hit headlines when Mel Gibson ended his year-long romance with Russian musician Oksana Grigorieva, the mother of his baby daughter, Lucia. The couple didn't give a reason for the break-up, but Grigorieva subsequently hinted "you will find out everything quite soon". Jim Carrey and Jenny Mccarthy also ended their five-year romance.
The music world was rocked when Brett Michaels suffered two serious health scares in April. The Poison rocker was admitted to hospital for an emergency appendectomy at the beginning of the month and just weeks later he collapsed after suffering a brain haemorrhage. The rocker was in a critical condition, but slowly began his recovery. Another shock for music fans came with the death of former Sex Pistols manager and punk icon Malcolm Mclaren, who lost his battle with cancer.
April was a sad month for Dynasty fans after two of the show's former stars died within days of each other. John Forsythe passed away from complications relating to pneumonia and his death was followed by the passing of his onscreen brother Christopher Cazenove, who lost a battle with blood poisoning just six days later.
The scandal of the month came when Desperate Housewives actress Nicollette Sheridan filed a multi-million dollar lawsuit against the show's creator, Marc Cherry. The actress claimed he slapped her during an argument over the script and then fired her when she complained to producers.
Sheridan's co-stars, Teri Hatcher, Eva Longoria Parker, Felicity Huffman and Marcia CrosS, all took Cherry's side.
May
There were wedding bells this month for Scissor Sisters singer Ana Matronic and her boyfriend Seth Kirby, and actors Seth Green and Clare Grant. Meanwhile, Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon sealed their love by renewing their wedding vows for the third time.
May was not such a happy month for Boyzone singer Ronan Keating, who split from his wife Yvonne, and he wasn't the only one facing heartache - former Bond girl Halle Berry split from Gabriel Aubry after more than four years together, and Buffy The Vampire Slayer star David Boreanaz's marriage was plunged into crisis when he admitted cheating on his wife.
Several stars heard the pitter-patter of tiny feet this month - Monica Bellucci gave birth to her second daughter, Leonie, supermodel Claudia Schiffer delivered her third child, daughter Cosima, and Amy Adams became a first-time mum after giving birth to daughter Aviana.
John Travolta and his wife Kelly Preston had something to smile about after the death of son Jett in 2009, when they confirmed the actress was expecting another child, and it was double joy for singer Alicia Keys - she became engaged to producer Swizz Beatz and announced her pregnancy.
Meanwhile, Hollywood paid tribute to legendary actor Dennis Hopper when he died at the age of 74 after a battle against prostate cancer, and Diff'rent Strokes star Gary Coleman passed away at the age of 42 after suffering a brain haemorrhage in a fall at his home.
There was further tragedy for the Redgrave dynasty when Lynn Redgrave died aged 67 after a long battle with breast cancer, and Brittany Murphy's grieving widower Simon Monjack was found dead at his home.
The rock world was plunged into mourning when Ronnie James Dio lost his battle with stomach cancer at the age of 67, swiftly followed by the sudden death of Slipknot bassist Paul Gray, 38, who was found dead in a hotel room in Iowa after an accidental drug overdose.
Former The Temptations star Ali-Ollie Woodson died from leukaemia, aged 58, and veteran actress/singer Lena Horne succumbed to heart failure at 92.
On the scandal front, Charlie Sheen's troubles mounted when he surrendered legal custody of his two children with ex-wife Denise Richards, and Miley Cyrus showed she's growing up fast when she was caught on camera dirty dancing with a 44-year-old movie producer in a nightclub. Lindsay Lohan was ordered by a court to wear an alcohol-monitoring ankle tag in a bid to help beat her drink and drug demons, and troubled actor Michael Madsen was hospitalised following a nine-day booze binge in Britain.
Bono was rushed to hospital for emergency surgery on his back, leading to the cancellation of U2's hotly-anticipated Glastonbury headline slot the following month.
June
June was a bumper wedding month with Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green marrying on a beach in Hawaii, while Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart wed after seven years together. Gemma Arterton married Stefano Catelli, and Alanis Morissette married Mc Souleye. British newsman Piers Morgan wed Celia Walden and Mena Suvari married music producer Simone Sestitos. Glee star Jane Lynch married Lara Embry in a civil partnership ceremony – and love was also in the air for Orlando Bloom, who announced his engagement to longterm girlfriend Miranda Kerr.
Ugly Betty star America Ferrera became engaged to Ryan Piers Williams, while Kate Hudson hit headlines when she started dating Muse frontman Matt Bellamy.
It was a baby boom month - Kevin Costner became a dad for the seventh time, Sheryl Crow adopted her second son, director Sofia Coppola welcomed another daughter, and R&B star Ne-Yo announced he is to be a father for the first time.
June was not such a good month love wise for actor Mark-Paul Gosselaar, who filed for divorce from his wife of 13 years. Meanwhile British singer Leona Lewis split from her childhood sweetheart and Twilight's Nikki Reed broke up with Paris Latsis. Brandy's romance with rapper Flo Rida came to an end, Welsh singer Charlotte Church split from fiance Gavin Henson, and former U.S. vice president Al Gore split from his wife of 40 years.
Rock stars were in mourning when former Stereophonics star Stuart Cable passed away, former The Kinks bassist Pete Quaife also died, and country music legend Jimmy Dean passed away at the age of 81. Hollywood was saddened when Golden Girls star Rue McClanahan died aged 76 after suffering a major stroke and actor/director Corey Allen passed away. Zorro star Eugenia Paul also died at the age of 75.
June also caused havoc for the music industry with numerous gigs being axed - Drake, Jay-z, Ke$ha and Grace Jones all had to cancel shows, while illness caused cancellations for John Mayer, Cher and Wolfmother, and Sum 41 brought the curtain down on their European tour after Steve Jocz was involved in a car crash.
Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford was in the news following his arrest for pot possession, while Motley Crue frontman Vince Neil and The Sopranos star Joseph Gannascoli were arrested separately on suspicion of driving under the influence (DUI). Meanwhile it was also another DUI arrest for actor Chris Klein - he then checked himself into a rehabilitation facility to deal with alcohol addiction later in the month.
Incarcerated rapper Lil Wayne's troubles worsened - he was sentenced to three years probation after striking a plea deal with U.S. prosecutors in relation to a 2008 drugs charge.
Other notable events in June included the launch of the soccer World Cup tournament, which saw stars including the Black Eyed Peas, Shakira, Alicia Keys and John Legend perform at the opening ceremony in South Africa. There was also a flurry of tributes on the one-year anniversary of Michael Jackson's death, and Larry King announced plans to retire from his 25-year run as the host of CNN talk show Larry King Live.
A number of awards were also handed out - The Twilight Saga: New Moon was the big winner at the MTV Movie Awards in Los Angeles, picking up four honours, while Sandra Bullock and Scarlett Johansson caused a stir by locking lips onstage at the ceremony. Chris Brown stole the show at the 2010 Bet Awards when he performed a dance tribute to Michael Jackson, while Alicia Keys and Drake were crowned the big winners.

February
February was marked by tragedy when celebrated fashion designer Alexander Mcqueen was found dead after hanging himself at his London home. Meanwhile, investigations into Michael Jackson’s death in June, 2009 loomed as coroner’s officials determined acute intoxication of powerful anaesthetic Propofol was the cause. The ruling prompted prosecutors to file involuntary manslaughter charges against his former doctor Conrad Murray. Officials also ruled Brittany Murphy’s death in December, 2009 was accidental and caused by pneumonia, aided by anaemia and drug intoxication. Andrew Koenig’s family continued to mourn after his body was found in Vancouver following an apparent suicide. Marie Osmond also grieved the apparent suicide death of her 18-year-old son.
Nancy Kerrigan’s family was rocked by controversy after her brother, Mark, became the target of an investigation of their father’s homicide. Meanwhile, Etta James’ son revealed the singer had been secretly battling Alzheimer's disease for more than a year.
But there were still celebrations in Hollywood. James Cameron’s sci-fi film Avatar became the highest grossing movie in the U.S. and the U.K. His ex-wife, Kathryn Bigelow, had something to boast about too when her war drama, The Hurt Locker, scored nine Oscar nods, the same amount as Cameron’s cinematic sensation. She also won top awards at the BAFTAs.
The world watched as Canada's brightest stars including Bryan Adams, Nelly Furtado, K.D. lang and Joni Mitchell teamed up to help launch the Winter Olympics in the country. And in London, Lady Gaga walked away with the Brit Awards’ top honours. Beatles drummer Ringo Starr unveiled his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and The Beatles' favourite recording studio Abbey Road was awarded historic status by the British government. Celine Dion, Kanye West, and Jennifer Hudson were among singers who recorded vocals for Quincy Jones and Lionel Richie's revamped We Are The World track to raise money for earthquake-ravaged Haiti. The country's biggest celebrity activist Sean Penn was caught in controversy and charged with criminal battery and vandalism following a violent run-in with a paparazzo, while Lil Wayne celebrated winning a postponement on his prison sentence for weapons possession.
It was a romantic month for several stars who announced plans to wed, including Nicole Richie and Joel Madden, Hilary Duff and ice hockey ace Mike Comrie, and Dave Annabelle and Odette Yustman. Kristen Bell revealed boyfriend Dax Shepard had proposed back in December, 2009. Meanwhile, Sienna Miller, who called off her engagement to Jude Law in 2006, rekindled her romance with the actor. Several stars welcomed bundles of joy, including Padma Lakshmi, Boris Becker, Sarah Jane Morris and Gary Busey. February wasn’t such a loved-up month for Ryan Phillippe and Abbie Cornish, or Cheryl Cole and her soccer star husband Ashley - both couples split. John Mayer risked the wrath of ex Jessica Simpson after referring to her as “sexual napalm”.
Public scandal took over headlines when Tiger Woods finally addressed reports he cheated on ex-wife Elin Nordegren with several mistresses and announced plans to return to rehab for sex therapy. Exes waged war in court, including Dennis Hopper, who won a restraining order against his estranged wife. Charlie Sheen was charged with felony menacing, third degree assault and misdemeanour criminal mischief stemming from an alleged altercation with his now-estranged wife, Brooke Mueller. Both parties checked in to rehab.
March
It was a shocking way to start the spring as March saw two of Hollywood's biggest star couples announce break-ups - Kate Winslet parted ways with her second husband Sam Mendes after seven years and Sandra Bullock's Oscar win was overshadowed after she found out partner Jesse James had cheated on her.
March wasn't any better for Take That's Mark Owen, who was also accused of cheating on his longtime girlfriend Emma Ferguson with 10 women - and he later revealed he's a struggling alcoholic and checked himself into rehab.
More scandals came as the month progressed, with fiery supermodel Naomi Campbell accused of attacking her driver by striking him on the head, and Michael Jackson's mum Katherine visited by welfare officials in Los Angeles over allegations one of her grandkids had purchased a stun gun.
Rapper J-Kwon was reported as a missing person after he failed to get in contact with his loved ones for more than a month, and reclusive R&B star D'Angelo was arrested in New York for offering an undercover cop cash for oral sex.
Other stars facing a tough time included Lil Wayne, who began an eight-month stretch behind bars stemming from a 2007 weapon possession arrest, and Lindsay Lohan, who had a fashion flop on her hands after being axed as the artistic advisor of style house Emanuel Ungaro following a slated catwalk collection.
But it wasn't all doom and gloom - Kathryn Bigelow made Oscars history when she became the first female to land the top director Academy Award for her war movie The Hurt Locker, beating ex-husband James Cameron in the process. Music mogul Simon Cowell confirmed his engagement to make-up artist Mezhgan Hussainy while others to put a ring on it included Friends star David Schwimmer, who proposed to his photographer girlfriend Zoe Buckman, and Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher, who enjoyed a small private wedding ceremony in Paris, France.
There was also a string of spring babies - Shakespeare In Love star Joseph Fiennes became a first-time father after welcoming a daughter, while Kevin Costner announced he was set to become a dad for a seventh time. Hollywood stars Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart also became parents for the first time after the actress gave birth to a baby girl.
While March saw ups and downs for some of Tinseltown's finest, others were looking on the bright side - Ricky Martin confirmed the worst kept secret in pop by announcing he's homosexual, while Will & Grace star Sean Hayes also decided to come out of the closet and spoke for the first time about his sexuality.
Every fan of 1980s movies was left devastated after hearing Corey Haim had died from a drug overdose - the Lost Boys star was aged 38. The month also saw the passings of Little Women star Richard Stapley, veteran British actor Martin Benson and beloved U.S. TV star Fess Parker.
April
The eruption of a volcano in Iceland at the end of March meant the following month was dogged by stories of stranded stars as a giant ash cloud swept over northern Europe and closed airports across the continent.
California's Coachella festival was under threat as a number of acts cancelled their slots when they were unable to fly out to the U.S.
Several movie premieres were also affected in the chaos - the Iron Man 2 red carpet event in London was moved to Los Angeles when stars including Robert Downey, Jr. were unable to jet to Britain. Miley Cyrus also scrapped plans to unveil her film The Last Song in the British capital due to the cancelled flights.
TV stars Chace Crawford and Kiefer Sutherland were both stranded in London after the ash cloud hit, and the 24 actor made the most of his extended stay by taking trips to some of Britain's best-known landmarks, including a day out to visit Stonehenge.
But many celebrities refused to let a little bit of volcano ash get in the way of their work - Metallica continued their tour by swapping planes for roads and railways, while Status Quo drove back to Britain after finding themselves stuck in Russia. John Cleese was stranded in Norway, so he paid $4,950 (£3,300) for a taxi to take him to Belgium, where he caught a train back to London.
In non-volcano-related news, Sandra Bullock sent shockwaves through the showbiz world when she came out fighting after her husband Jesse James' cheating scandal in March. The Oscar winner announced she had filed for divorce and stunned the world by revealing she had also adopted a baby son, Louis. Bullock admitted the couple had taken charge of their new son back in January, but kept the news quiet and after splitting from James she resolved to raise the baby on her own.
Another high profile celebrity split hit headlines when Mel Gibson ended his year-long romance with Russian musician Oksana Grigorieva, the mother of his baby daughter, Lucia. The couple didn't give a reason for the break-up, but Grigorieva subsequently hinted "you will find out everything quite soon". Jim Carrey and Jenny Mccarthy also ended their five-year romance.
The music world was rocked when Brett Michaels suffered two serious health scares in April. The Poison rocker was admitted to hospital for an emergency appendectomy at the beginning of the month and just weeks later he collapsed after suffering a brain haemorrhage. The rocker was in a critical condition, but slowly began his recovery. Another shock for music fans came with the death of former Sex Pistols manager and punk icon Malcolm Mclaren, who lost his battle with cancer.
April was a sad month for Dynasty fans after two of the show's former stars died within days of each other. John Forsythe passed away from complications relating to pneumonia and his death was followed by the passing of his onscreen brother Christopher Cazenove, who lost a battle with blood poisoning just six days later.
The scandal of the month came when Desperate Housewives actress Nicollette Sheridan filed a multi-million dollar lawsuit against the show's creator, Marc Cherry. The actress claimed he slapped her during an argument over the script and then fired her when she complained to producers.
Sheridan's co-stars, Teri Hatcher, Eva Longoria Parker, Felicity Huffman and Marcia CrosS, all took Cherry's side.
May
There were wedding bells this month for Scissor Sisters singer Ana Matronic and her boyfriend Seth Kirby, and actors Seth Green and Clare Grant. Meanwhile, Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon sealed their love by renewing their wedding vows for the third time.
May was not such a happy month for Boyzone singer Ronan Keating, who split from his wife Yvonne, and he wasn't the only one facing heartache - former Bond girl Halle Berry split from Gabriel Aubry after more than four years together, and Buffy The Vampire Slayer star David Boreanaz's marriage was plunged into crisis when he admitted cheating on his wife.
Several stars heard the pitter-patter of tiny feet this month - Monica Bellucci gave birth to her second daughter, Leonie, supermodel Claudia Schiffer delivered her third child, daughter Cosima, and Amy Adams became a first-time mum after giving birth to daughter Aviana.
John Travolta and his wife Kelly Preston had something to smile about after the death of son Jett in 2009, when they confirmed the actress was expecting another child, and it was double joy for singer Alicia Keys - she became engaged to producer Swizz Beatz and announced her pregnancy.
Meanwhile, Hollywood paid tribute to legendary actor Dennis Hopper when he died at the age of 74 after a battle against prostate cancer, and Diff'rent Strokes star Gary Coleman passed away at the age of 42 after suffering a brain haemorrhage in a fall at his home.
There was further tragedy for the Redgrave dynasty when Lynn Redgrave died aged 67 after a long battle with breast cancer, and Brittany Murphy's grieving widower Simon Monjack was found dead at his home.
The rock world was plunged into mourning when Ronnie James Dio lost his battle with stomach cancer at the age of 67, swiftly followed by the sudden death of Slipknot bassist Paul Gray, 38, who was found dead in a hotel room in Iowa after an accidental drug overdose.
Former The Temptations star Ali-Ollie Woodson died from leukaemia, aged 58, and veteran actress/singer Lena Horne succumbed to heart failure at 92.
On the scandal front, Charlie Sheen's troubles mounted when he surrendered legal custody of his two children with ex-wife Denise Richards, and Miley Cyrus showed she's growing up fast when she was caught on camera dirty dancing with a 44-year-old movie producer in a nightclub. Lindsay Lohan was ordered by a court to wear an alcohol-monitoring ankle tag in a bid to help beat her drink and drug demons, and troubled actor Michael Madsen was hospitalised following a nine-day booze binge in Britain.
Bono was rushed to hospital for emergency surgery on his back, leading to the cancellation of U2's hotly-anticipated Glastonbury headline slot the following month.
June
June was a bumper wedding month with Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green marrying on a beach in Hawaii, while Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart wed after seven years together. Gemma Arterton married Stefano Catelli, and Alanis Morissette married Mc Souleye. British newsman Piers Morgan wed Celia Walden and Mena Suvari married music producer Simone Sestitos. Glee star Jane Lynch married Lara Embry in a civil partnership ceremony – and love was also in the air for Orlando Bloom, who announced his engagement to longterm girlfriend Miranda Kerr.
Ugly Betty star America Ferrera became engaged to Ryan Piers Williams, while Kate Hudson hit headlines when she started dating Muse frontman Matt Bellamy.
It was a baby boom month - Kevin Costner became a dad for the seventh time, Sheryl Crow adopted her second son, director Sofia Coppola welcomed another daughter, and R&B star Ne-Yo announced he is to be a father for the first time.
June was not such a good month love wise for actor Mark-Paul Gosselaar, who filed for divorce from his wife of 13 years. Meanwhile British singer Leona Lewis split from her childhood sweetheart and Twilight's Nikki Reed broke up with Paris Latsis. Brandy's romance with rapper Flo Rida came to an end, Welsh singer Charlotte Church split from fiance Gavin Henson, and former U.S. vice president Al Gore split from his wife of 40 years.
Rock stars were in mourning when former Stereophonics star Stuart Cable passed away, former The Kinks bassist Pete Quaife also died, and country music legend Jimmy Dean passed away at the age of 81. Hollywood was saddened when Golden Girls star Rue McClanahan died aged 76 after suffering a major stroke and actor/director Corey Allen passed away. Zorro star Eugenia Paul also died at the age of 75.
June also caused havoc for the music industry with numerous gigs being axed - Drake, Jay-z, Ke$ha and Grace Jones all had to cancel shows, while illness caused cancellations for John Mayer, Cher and Wolfmother, and Sum 41 brought the curtain down on their European tour after Steve Jocz was involved in a car crash.
Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford was in the news following his arrest for pot possession, while Motley Crue frontman Vince Neil and The Sopranos star Joseph Gannascoli were arrested separately on suspicion of driving under the influence (DUI). Meanwhile it was also another DUI arrest for actor Chris Klein - he then checked himself into a rehabilitation facility to deal with alcohol addiction later in the month.
Incarcerated rapper Lil Wayne's troubles worsened - he was sentenced to three years probation after striking a plea deal with U.S. prosecutors in relation to a 2008 drugs charge.
Other notable events in June included the launch of the soccer World Cup tournament, which saw stars including the Black Eyed Peas, Shakira, Alicia Keys and John Legend perform at the opening ceremony in South Africa. There was also a flurry of tributes on the one-year anniversary of Michael Jackson's death, and Larry King announced plans to retire from his 25-year run as the host of CNN talk show Larry King Live.
A number of awards were also handed out - The Twilight Saga: New Moon was the big winner at the MTV Movie Awards in Los Angeles, picking up four honours, while Sandra Bullock and Scarlett Johansson caused a stir by locking lips onstage at the ceremony. Chris Brown stole the show at the 2010 Bet Awards when he performed a dance tribute to Michael Jackson, while Alicia Keys and Drake were crowned the big winners.

Rapper Kanye West has taken aim at troubled actress Lindsay Lohan, insisting her style collection for Emanuel Ungaro put him off launching his own fashion range. The "Mean Girls" star, who is currently in rehab in California, designed a line for the French fashion house last year, but her creations were mauled by critics when they hit the runway, and she later quit her creative consultant post at the company.
West has branded Lohan's disastrous line the fashion equivalent of the September 11 terrorist attacks, and he admits the reaction to the star's range made him axe his own clothing venture Past Tell, which was due to hit stores in 2009.
He tells Britain's Daily Mirror, "Have you heard of a little thing called Lindsay Lohan's Ungaro collection? That was like the 9/11 of fashion. It was game over for me after that as no one would take a celebrity trying to do fashion seriously.

Lindsay Lohan's initial foray into the world of fashion was met with some harsh criticism when she partnered with a storied fashion house a year ago. And as if the troubled actress didn't have enough worries, on Wednesday night in London, during a screening of his 35-minute epic, experimental film "Runaway," Kanye West had some very sharp-elbowed opinions about Lohan's sideline.
According to Elle UK, West reportedly referred to Lindsay's collaboration with fashion house Ungaro as the "9/11 for celebrities doing fashion. After that, I thought, 'Well, I can't do a line now.' "

Giles Deacon took over as Ungaro's creative director in May earlier this year, and on Monday, Oct. 4, he will debut his collection for the label. Deacon has been designing his own-name collections as well as Ungaro's.
Deacon showed his own collection during London Fashion Week just last week. He is the sixth designer to take on the role of Ungaro's creative director. Designer and founder Emanuel Ungaro retired in 2004.
After retiring, Ungaro sold his fashion business the following year to businessman Asim Abdullah for million. Abdullah appointed Mounir Moufarrige, another businessman who as the CEO, who has had trouble keeping creative directors for the company. Vincent Darre lasted for two seasons, Peter Dundas took over for the next two seasons, and Esteban Cortazar was the creative director for the next three seasons.

HollywoodNews.com: Tim Gunn is doing interviews and signings for his new book “Gunn’s Golden Rules” and boy it sure is bringing out his inner bitch!
In the past few weeks he has had a lot to say about famous people. Let’s start with druggie Lindsay Lohan and her disastrous tenure as creative director of Emanuel Ungaro: “Mr. Ungaro is dead and God knows he must have been rolling over in his grave, but I thought, this is one of the last couture houses left in this entire world. Lindsay Lohan is the creative director? How absurd is that! It would be like asking, I don’t know, like, asking Suri Cruise to pilot a fighter jet.”
Okay, that’s fine. But why did he have to go on to pick on the adorable daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes by adding: “Suri is,...

After calling Taylor Momsen "pathetic," Tim Gunn is now gunning for Lindsay Lohan and Suri Cruise and their roles in the fashion department. The beloved "Project Runway" mentor sure doesn't hold back when it comes to calling out celebs.
Gunn, the chief creative officer for Liz Claiborne, thinks the House of Emanuel Ungaro made a major faux pas when they hired Lohan as its creative director last year.
He told Access Hollywood Live, "Mr. Ungaro is dead and God knows he must have been rolling over in his grave, but I thought, this is one of the last couture houses left in this entire world. Lindsay Lohan is the creative director? How absurd is that!"

Lindsay Lohan has stripped down to just her undergarments for a photoshoot for German Vogue. Taking place on Malibu Beach on Saturday, June 5, the 23-year-old beauty dressed in sultry Scandinavian-looking lingerie and wore a pair of Ugg boots which hide her Scram bracelet.

Lindsay has previously worked with the famous photographer back in October 2009 for The London Times' Style magazine. She, at that time, also posed seductively in a ruched black Emanuel Ungaro minidress, thigh boots, a sequined black beret and a large Chanel scarf at Hotel Plaza Athenee in Paris.

Fashion Dilemma
Does Satc really set trends?
[Int. London - day: Fashion Statement is poised at her desk near the windows in cosy Guardian Towers, tapping away at her heavily product-placed laptop while occasionally looking wistfully out across the utterly-devoid-of-romance King's Cross basin.]
Ploughing through her inbox and mailbox this week, Fashion Statement just couldn't help but wonder, does anyone really Care what the characters in Sex and the City wear?
Our esteemed colleague Hadley Freeman recently wrote about the sad demise of a once-fun television series into an overpriced couture lookbook. So, too, the looks it once styled have degenerated from trend-setting to jaw-dropping. When the series first started, the quirky mix of wacky vintage with the odd bit of designer may have been inspirational to some - though Fashion Statement for one never once tried wearing a stupidly oversized corsage or a tutu. But, dear reader, can you really say that there is a single trend from...

Feted British designer replaces actor Lindsay Lohan as Parisian fashion house's creative adviser
The last "creative adviser" of the Parisian fashion label Emanuel Ungaro – the actor Lindsay Lohan – attracted derision when appointed, her collections later being dismissed as "an embarrassment". But today the label took a sizeable step back to fashion credibility with the appointment of Giles Deacon, British fashion's most feted designer.
Deacon's appointment as creative director should mark a fresh start for the 45-year-old label, which has struggled to keep its place among the Paris fashion powerhouses since its founder, Ungaro, resigned in 2004.
Marie Fournier, the fashion house's general manager, said: "Not only is Giles recognised as a designer with extraordinary talent, he has the gravitas and sensibility to re-interpret the rich heritage of Ungaro with a contemporary point of view."
Deacon, 40, a graduate of Central St Martin's art school, launched his own label in 2004, to critical acclaim.

The president of Lindsay Lohan's 6126 fashion brand has come to the actress-turned-socialite's defense following her split from style company Emanuel Ungaro, insisting the "Mean Girls" star wasn't allowed to get involved in the firm's decisions.
Lohan was reportedly dropped from her role as artistic adviser for Ungaro earlier this year after her debut runway show for the company in 2009 was a critical flop. But her 6126 president Kristi Kaylor insists her boss was unfairly criticized by the fashion police - and never had a chance to succeed at Ungaro.
Speaking out in the Los Angeles Times newspaper, Kaylor says, "Lindsay was frustrated she didn't get to be as involved as she wanted to be." And Kaylor insists the Lohan portrayed in the media as a party-loving problem is nothing like her press suggests.
She adds, "They (media) are so hard on her. There's such another story. I work with her,...
