Sharon Stone joins Mugler for new archive capsule collection

Perth Now3 days ago

Sharon Stone is teaming up with Mugler for a new capsule collection.
While the fashion brand is awaiting initial designs from its new creative director Miguel Castro Freitas, the company has looked to the past with 24 looks from its archive getting reinterpreted for a new project.
Basic Instinct star Sharon has been brought on board for the Re/Edit collection, which ranges from lingerie-inspired tailored designs to red carpet dresses.
As reported by Women's Wear Daily, the latter takes its a lead from ready-to-wear and couture fashion between 1985 and 2000, which are gaining popularity with younger generations.
The capsule is set to launch via Mugler's online boutique - plus select speciality stores around the world - from September 2025.
Founder Thierry Mugler died of natural causes in 2022 at the age of 73.
Sharon is no stranger to the brand, having worn them in 1992 when the designer was honoured by the California Fashion Industry Friends of AIDS Project.
Speaking at the time, she told WWD: "Acting is from your soul. Modelling is from your ego."
Earlier that same year, Sharon had to wear a polyester jumpsuit to her first Academy Awards because no designer would lend her a dress.
The Basic Instinct star was asked to present an award at the Oscars in 1992 just days after the iconic movie hit the big screen, and so as an unknown actress she wasn't given the same support as more famous names.
During a previous appearance on iHeartRadio's Table for Two with Bruce Bozzi podcast, she said: "All these people in their $40,000 or $50,000 dresses and I went and bought a Betsey Johnson polyester jumpsuit, because that was the best I could do.
"I'm doing my own hair and makeup and I was just like, 'Wow, this is awful. Like, how am I going to do this, right?' "

STM Loves: Luxe Designer Fashion Hire, Plateful Perth, The 7 Stages Of Grieving, Adore Beauty and Re-PLAY

Behind the glass of this Subiaco boutique, there are thousands of dresses: maxis, minis, long-sleeved and strapless, tulle, sequins and everything in between, plus shoes, bags, jewellery and headwear. But it's sustainable fashion with a mission; 100 per cent of the proceeds go to support Vinnies' programs for women, including help for those fleeing family violence. The venture, which stocks designers from Valentino to Aje, Zhivago and Leo Lin, was started by the charity almost nine months ago under the motto of 'women helping women'. Last financial year, Vinnies' emergency helpline took almost 50,000 calls, with almost a third first-time callers. 'There is so much need out there, all sorts of challenges for people in the community, so we wanted to find a new revenue source to help fund, develop and grow our vital programs,' says Zoe Hammond, Vinnies head of designer fashion. There are stylists in-store and four and eight-day hire options. See @luxedesignerfashionhire on Instagram. For the young and the young at heart, this interactive exhibition at The Art Gallery of Western Australia features the playful work of local artist Maxxi Minaxi May. The display has hands-on installations, tactile experiences and bursts of colour to encourage different age groups to work together, and 'challenges the 'greyness' of contemporary life and pushes back against consumerism, schedules and screens'. 'Research highlights the profound impact of multigenerational play and creativity in igniting imagination and deepening relationships with each other and the world,' says Lilly Blue, curator and AGWA learning and creativity research manager. There will also be a special program for the winter school holidays. Re-PLAY runs July 5 until February. See . This month-long event has more than 100 offers to get people into the city in August, with everything from one-night-only premium dining to discounts for great value meals and for the first time, staycation packages with food included. The Premium Plates program includes a Parisian night at Fleur and a six-course Cape to Cape dinner at Cooee, among other high-end restaurants. Sip Sessions offers cocktail classes and guided bar-hopping, Feast involves long-table banquets and chef collaborations and Gourmet Getaways combines a hotel stay with dining. For those on a budget, Bargain Bites has specials for casual dinners and lunches. See . Yirra Yaakin Theatre Company is putting on a season of this groundbreaking play to mark 30 years since it premiered as a radical act of Aboriginal theatre-making. The 1995 play, by writer/director Wesley Enoch and acclaimed actor Deborah Mailman, is told by a single narrator and weaves together cultural knowledge, memories and experiences. Its production by Yirra Yaakin, starring Shontane Farmer and Shahnee Hunter in alternating shows, is the first time the play has been presented by an Aboriginal theatre company. It will be at Subiaco Arts Centre from July 3-12. See . After years of eagerly awaiting their skincare deliveries (and the obligatory Tim Tam), Perth beauty lovers can finally shop in-person, with Adore Beauty opening two stores. The first opened at Westfield Carousel on June 26, with Westfield Booragoon to follow on July 10. More than 90 brands will be on offer, including a dedicated Korean beauty section, haircare, fragrances, local favourites and global names like La Roche-Posay and Dermalogica. Forget hibernating: from July 7 to August 17 the Leederville Precinct will come alive with this annual food, wine and music festival. Over six weeks The Leederville Hotel, The Garden and Sevo will host a tasty array of dinners, tastings, workshops and parties as a way to showcase talented chefs, winemakers and creatives. From an evening of Boombox Bingo, to a decadent Deep Woods truffle dinner to a Stretch and Sip mozzarella masterclass, there is plenty to draw you out of your dressing gown.

Composer of Mission Impossible theme dies, aged 93

Lalo Schifrin, the composer who wrote the theme for Mission: Impossible and more than 100 other arrangements for film and television, has died at 93. Schifrin's sons, William and Ryan, confirmed his death. The Argentine won four Grammys and was nominated for six Oscars, including five for original score for the movies: Cool Hand Luke; The Fox; Voyage of the Damned; The Amityville Horror; and The Sting II. "The movie dictates what the music will be." Schifrin also wrote the grand finale musical performance for the World Cup in Italy in 1990, in which the Three Tenors: Placido Domingo, Luciano Pavarotti and Jose Carreras, sang together for the first time. The work became one of the biggest sellers in the history of classical music. Born Boris Claudio Schifrin to a Jewish family in Buenos Aires, where his father was the concertmaster of the philharmonic orchestra, Schifrin was classically trained in music, in addition to studying law. After studying at the Paris Conservatory, where he learned about harmony and composition from composer Olivier Messiaen, Schifrin returned to Argentina and formed a concert band. Jazz great Dizzy Gillespie heard Schifrin perform and asked him to become his pianist, arranger and composer. In 1958, Schifrin moved to the United States where he performed and recorded with famous names including Ella Fitzgerald, Stan Getz, Dee Dee Bridgewater and George Benson. He also moved into writing music for television and Hollywood movies. In 2018, he was given an honorary Oscar statuette, which was presented to him by Clint Eastwood. In addition to his sons, he is survived by his daughter, Frances, and wife, Donna.
