Fashion and Music


Fashion and music have always had a close connection, from the iconic moment when Kate Moss joined former lover Pete Doherty on stage to sing ‘La belle et la bĂȘte’ during a Babyshambles gig, to Carla Bruni hanging up her supermodel stilettos to take to the folk stage. Many brands have capitalised in the natural collaboration between music and fashion, by designing stage outfits. Roberto Cavalli was the designer behind the Spice Girls comeback tour creations, and Frida Giannini, of Gucci, designed the beautiful ethereal dresses for Florence and the Machine’s latest US tour.

Be A Rockstar

Paco Rabanne Black XS are the most recent brand to jump on the bandwagon by teaming up with Universal Music to bring us 'Be A Rockstar'. This unique music platform, www.be-a-rockstar.com, is packed with exclusive music content and one of the largest catalogues of artisits in the world. Have you ever wanted to live like a rockstar? The fame, the parties, travelling around the world - well, upload your picture on www.be-a-rockstar.com/uk/experience and make your rock 'n roll dreams come true!

Black XS are giving fans the opportunity to 'go backstage' with bands like Cold War Kids, Two Door Cinema Club and Kaiser Chiefs with the Black XS Off Shows, a series of nine episodes which will be airing towards the end of the year on www.be-a-rockstar.com and the Black XS YouTube channel. You'll be able to see what being a rockstar is really like - the good and the bad all in one.

Two Door Cinema Club

I haven’t smelt the fragrance but to be honest - most of the gigs that I have been to have been full of sweaty adolescents; so any fragrance that improves the smell of these ‘too cool to wash’ kids gets my vote.
