Weekly Fashion Roundup

Actress Gwyneth Paltrow was spotted at a Beverly Hills Williams-Sonoma store last Thursday for the book signing of her new cookbook, My Father's Daughter. Paltrow was spotted wearing a bright yellow satin dress designed by Rachel Roy. If you love this hue as much as I do, be sure to check out Chanel's latest limited edition nail polish, Mimosa.

 

According to E! Online, Angelina Jolie has been cast for a Louis Vuitton campaign. Although the news is only a rumor, it has received major buzz and everybody is wondering if it's true. Sources are unsure whether or not Angelina will be in the upcoming fall 2011 campaign or something totally different. Louis Vuitton has declined to comment on this rumor, so I'm going to assume that it's true. E! Online suggests that Angelina is getting $10 million for the deal. Is this a good idea and what will happen to the six young models that have allegedly been cast in the Louis Vuitton campaign already?

Last week, J.Crew was sued for naming its "Duquette leopard print sweater" after interior designer Tony Duquette, who is known for his use of leopard print on wallpaper, fabric, and furniture. Although Duquette died in 1999, his company continues to run via the new owner, Hutton Wilkinson. Wilkinson has accused J.Crew of trademark infringement stating that J.Crew used the Duquette name without permission. The cardigan has since been removed from the J.Crew website but has been replaced with a similar-looking version named the "wild spots cardigan." Does Wilkinson have a case?

 Naomi Campbell graces the cover of Japanese Vogue's June issue wearing a spring 2011 Gucci dress. The cover was shot by Inez van Lamsweerde as well as Vinoodh Matadin, and Naomi looks absolutely stunning. Critics, of course, have been giving their own opinion, stating that Naomi may have finally lost her luster. Some even called this cover bland, but what do you think?
