All tag results for 'the queen'

Grace Jones continued being her usual fierce self at the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Concert in London on Monday night.

Not only was she wearing a shiny red and black body suit and show-stopping red headdress, she also hula-hooped through her entire four minute performance.

It's hard to believe this woman is 64 years old! We hope to be just like her when we grow up one day!

Vivienne Westwood may not think too highly of the Duchess of Cambridge, but Queen Elizabeth II is a whole other story.

For Her Majesty's Diamond Jubilee, Dame Vivienne has designed a Red Carpet Capsule Collection inspired by actual gowns the Queen has worn.

The luxurious dresses come in a variety of fabrics such as silk, satin, taffeta and organza crepe de chine and are way more subdued than what Westwood presents at her over the top fashion shows. She even created jewelry that rivals the crown jewels!

Shoppers wanting to get the royal treatment can do so when the collection arrives at Vivienne Westwood stores this May.

Check out the pieces (below) from the line and tell us which one U like best!

No, not THAT Queen. We're talking about Queen Latifah!

The singer slash actress slash Cover Girl has announced her plans to launch her own lifestyle brand, appropriately dubbed "The Queen", on HSN starting in August.

Latifah said she wanted her first ever clothing line to be "something that really represented the women who I have represented through the years — uplifting, feeling good, feeling sexy, positive and servicing HSN’s audience."

However, she was quick to add it's not a "plus-size collection". Rather, Queen took all shapes and sizes into consideration and designed apparel that will flatter all body types.

The line is also relatively affordable with t-shirts, leggings and dresses priced at under $100 while handbags and outerwear range from $170-$300.
