Alexander McQueen laid to rest today

A private funeral service took place today for designer Alexander McQueen, who was found hanged in his London apartment two weeks ago.

The ceremony was intimate, with only McQueen's family and closest friends in attendance, including Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Stella McCartney and Daphne Guinness.

A larger memorial service open to McQueen fans is expected to take place later this year, but no date or venue has been confirmed.

Gucci Group president and CEO Robert Polet announced last week that McQueen's business will go on, and that the house will show the Fall 2010 collection at Paris Fashion Week on March 9th.

According to WWD, the black-and-white image of Lucky was shot by McCartney's mother, Linda, in 1976.

Stella McCartney going for round two at the Gap

Stella McCartney’s collection for GapKids was so popular (Moms were even trying to buy some items for themselves), that the designer will be producing a spring collection which will hit stores in March.

The designer originally signed on for one season, which debuted earlier this month. Best sellers included the Miller naval jacket, named after McCartney’ eldest song, Miller Alasdhair James Willis.

The Style Savvy: Rachel McAdams

Rachel McAdams looked radiant in a white Pucci dress with a plunging neckline at the premiere of her new movie, The Time Traveller's Wife at the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York City on Wednesday.

The 30-year-old actress paired her frock with a pair of Christian Louboutins, H. Stern jewellery and a Stella McCartney clutch.

The Met Ball 2009

The Metropolitan Museum of Art's annual Costume Institute Gala is the Oscars of the fashion-world. It is at this time that fashion-savvy celebrities, supermodels and designers come together, dressed in fabulous clothing, to celebrate the launch of the Met's latest exhibit.

This year's theme was the Models as Muse: Embodying Fashion, and was hosted by Marc Jacobs, Justin Timberlake, Kate Moss, and Anna Wintour.

The guests wore their best suits and gowns, and some of them made more daring fashion choices: Kate Moss sported a gold lame turban, Rihanna wore a Dolce & Gabbana suit, and Madonna turned heads in her Louis Vuitton ensemble, bunny ears and everything.

The Gossip Girls, Blake Lively and Leighton Meester didn't do to well on their fashion choices, with Lively's teal Versace dress with its high-cut slit up the side, and Meester's floral Vuitton emsemble. Blair and Serena would be disgusted.

Agyness Deyn resembled Marilyn Monroe with a short blonde bob and a silver Burberry gown, and Heidi Klum's very pregnant physique was extremely noticeable in her J. Mendel dress, even though it was meant to hide the bump.

Here are some of the most memorable looks of the night!

The adventures of Bruno: Chapter 3

Bruno strikes again! Sacha Baron Cohen's alter ego made an extravagant appearance at Jean-Charles de Castelbajac's show in Paris this morning. Bruno leapt to the catwalk to pass a note to a model, before heading backstage to cause chaos.

He sure knows how to keep the fashion world on their toes! This is the third time he's stirred up some trouble! First he walked the runway at Agatha Ruiz de la Prada's show in Milan, and then, he showed up at Stella McCartney's show in Paris yesterday.

Bruno Invades Paris!

He's done it again! Borat star, Sacha Baron Cohen, dressed as his alter-ego Bruno, was spotted at Stella McCartney's show in Paris today.

Bruno was sitting second row at the show, wearing a red thong that was visible above his jeans, and sucking on a tampon. He clapped along to the music and constantly annoyed those sitting in the front row by continually pushing them aside so he could get a better look.

Where will he strike next? Let's hope he'll make an appearance in Toronto!
