Today In History - August 30
ON this day in history…
…2007, Kate Moss unveiled her debut fragrance, named simply Kate.At the launch in Marrakesh, Moss explained she wanted the scent to have "a vintage English feel", and encompass both her "good" and "bad" sides."I tried to encompass everything that I feel about being feminine and a bit rock 'n roll, a bit edgy and a bit light, a bit dark."
…2002, P. Diddy had a very specific list of requirements for those attending his post-MTV Video Music Awards party."Fellas:Haircuts, shape-ups and clean shaves are a must.Ladies:Hairdos, waxing, manicures and pedicures are also a must," instructed the eight-page invitation to what the rapper-turned-fashion designer dubbed The Greatest Party of All Time.The leather-bound invite also warned the 1,500 guests, including Britney Spears and Madonna, that anyone less than impeccably polished would simply not be allowed in to the Cipriani, in New York."If your shoes are scuffed, you're going to have a problem.If you're wearing jeans, you're on the wrong track.Pull out the flyest shit in your closet, or have your stylist pull something for you.Think the Oscars.Think the person you want to marry is inside."
…2002, Sophia Loren attributed her enduring beauty to Giorgio Armani."It's not me," she protested, when asked how she managed to look so good just weeks before her 68th birthday."It's the Armani that makes me feel so good."
