This prom season DressGoddess is introducing the ultimate one-of-a-kind prom dress for Prom 2011: The $13,997 Prom Dress. The world’s most expensive prom dress to date.

The $13,997 Prom Dress, exclusively available only at DressGoddess, is designed by renowned prom fashion designer La Femme and customized by DressGoddess with an assortment of genuine diamonds valued at more than $13,000 and hand sewn throughout the bodice of the prom dress.
One of the hottest prom dresses for 2011, the $13,997 Prom Dress is inspired by the new La Femme 15987.
“We have been selling prom dresses since 1969. Starting in January of each year, our customers search for the most unique prom dress ever created,” said Jon Liney, president of DressGoddess.
“The $13,997 Prom Dress delivers exactly this…exclusive one of a kind extravagance. Victoria’s Secret has their $2,000,000 Bra and now DressGoddess has the $13,997 Prom Dress.”
Since typical prom dresses range in price from $200 to $800, DressGodddess offers customers the original La Femme 15987 design for $398.
“La Femme’s original creation is just as beautiful and more economical,” added Jon Liney of DressGoddess. “This is how to purchase the $13,997 Prom Dress for less.”
Available in sizes 00 thru 12, this classic sequined gown with a sweetheart neckline and high slit epitomizes striking Hollywood glamour. The gorgeous silver form fitting La Femme evening dress ensures a memorable entrance and exit at any prom.
The $13,997 Prom Dress as well as the $398 La Femme 15987 will be available for purchase in early March 2011.

Harry Potter star Emma Watson has been announced as the new spokesperson for French beauty brand Lancome.

The forever-fresh looking 20-year-old beauty says she’s excited and can’t wait to start shooting.
Apparently she doesn’t wear a lot of make-up… (but when you’re Emma Watson, I guess you just don’t have to!) “Although I don’t wear much make-up, I’m a big fan of Lancome products, especially their mascara,” Watson said.
Renowned celebrity photographer Mario Testino will be behind the camera to shoot Emma for print adverts. The word is that she will appear in TV commercials as well.

American celebrity athlete, actress, and charismatic fashion model Aimee Mullins’s beauty will now take on a new horizon: as the new global face of cosmetics giant L’Oreal Paris.

“The L’Oreal Paris icons are among the most beautiful women in the world. I am very honored to be joining this family,” said Mullins, 34.
“The ‘Because I’m Worth It’ tagline means a lot to me. Beauty is not skin-deep; it can be a means of self-affirmation, a true indicator of personality and confidence,” she added.
“Aimee embodies perfectly the L’Oreal Paris woman. Sublime, charismatic, strong. Her life is extraordinary in all meanings possible,” said Cyril Chapuy, Global Brand President of L’Oreal Paris.
Despite losing both of her legs due to a medical condition, Mullins embarked upon a stellar athletic career: she was the first woman with prosthetic legs to compete in several international competitions.
People magazine listed her in their list of the “World’s 50 Most Beautiful People” after a 1999 runway show in London where she used intricately carved wooden prosthetics.
Mullins has been featured in prestigious magazines worldwide such as Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, W, Sports Illustrated, Life, Glamour and Elle.
She now joins the L’Oreal Paris family of spokespeople which includes Milla Jovovich, Beyonce Knowles, Diane Keaton, Diane Kruger, Evangeline Lilly, Eva Longoria, Jennifer Lopez, Andie MacDowell, Julianna Margulies, Freida Pinto, Gwen Stefani and Kerry Washington.

Got a billion dollars? Perhaps you might then be just able to brush shoulders with Jessica Simpson, since her fashion line is set to rake in more than $1 billion this year alone.

Simpson’s line made about $750 million last year, said a report in New York Magazine, and went on to say it could very well see a jump of around 25 percent in 2011.
“I never thought I’d be some fashion mogul,” Simpson, 30, was quoted as saying.
The celebrity also revealed that plans are afoot to expand the fashion line to include career separates and prom dresses.
Well, Jessica, good for you… but does it mean you’ll not be singing any more?
