The Bling Ring: The Fashion Edition
If you haven’t been keeping up with the latest in the entertainment industry, then you may not be aware of The Bling Ring, starring an Americanized Emma Watson. But we bet most of you have heard about this one! We mean, it’s pretty hard not to notice all the glitz and glam surrounding the release.
Set to be the coolest movie of the year, directed and written by the effortlessly stylish, Sofia Coppola, The Bling Ring is based around the story of the Beverly Hills Burglaries. Five teenagers, obsessed with the lifestyles of the rich and famous, burgled a series of mansions belonging to celebrities, just to catch a glimpse of the stars’ lives, stealing a few bags and shoes along the way.
The movie features designer pieces from Versace, Rick Owens, Christian Louboutin and Alexander McQueen to name a few, all circa 2009 when the robberies first took place.
You can see Emma Watson, who stars as the typical ‘mean-girl’, Katie Chang, Taissa Farmiga, Israel Broussard and Claire Julien living the dream, one heist at a time – in cinemas nationwide now. But if you can’t wait, here’s a few of the best fashion moments, brought to you by Costume designer, Stacey Battat.
