Twilight fans remember the controversy well. It was late July, 2012 — just two days after co-stars and real-life couple Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson had attended the Teen Choice Awards together. Us Magazine released photos of a 22-year-old Stewart and a 41-year-old Rupert Sanders, the director of her recent film Snow White and The […]

Kristen Stewart is making use of that signature haunting gaze in the ad for Balenciaga’s latest fragrance, Rosabotanica. The scent is a variation of Florobotanica, which Stewart has been the face of since 2012.

Shot by Craig McDean, the latest photo showcases Stewart in a soft beauty portrait with vibrant orchids cascading across her shoulder—not a far stretch from the most recent Florobotanica ad (hey, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it).

This week in Kristen Stewart land, it’s been all about skin. That and a little thing called Twilight Breaking Dawn: Part Two. Stewart launched her globetrotting premiere tour in a sheerer than sheer Zuhair Murad gown which left little to the imagination, only to follow it up with another the next day in London. Today, she ended the whirlwind in another bang: a glimmering Elie Saab column dress with a leg slit that could rival only Angelina Jolie’s.

Allowing her to show off a pair of lace up Christian Louboutin heels, the custom Elie Saab dress was matched with an equally bold beauty look, with Kristen Stewart wearing a dark smoky eye with a natural lip colour and a high messy ponytail.

We’re going to take a small pause to acknowledge the fact that Robert Pattinson seems to have a case of frosted tips straight out of 1999. Other than his potentially questionable hair, his grey suit and black tie is the perfect note to end on at the Berlin premiere. Taylor Lautner even returned from his recent overly casual looks in an all black suit. If Kristen Stewart hadn’t selected such stunning looks throughout the tour, the guys could have stolen the show.

If this week were the record, we’d be sure that Kristen Stewart could do no wrong on the red carpet. Her last two appearances at the Twilight Breaking Dawn: Part Two premieres in Los Angeles and London, were a time to show off skin in lacy Zuhair Murad numbers. And yesterday in Madrid, she’s done it again. Beginning with a slightly more covered up look at the photo call early in the day, she returned to skin flaunting by nightfall.

Yesterday morning, instead of showing skin, the young Hollywood starlet wore an illusion dress from London designer, Julien Macdonald. The two-tone navy and white dress has intricate beading along the neckline that gives the appearance of wearing a bib necklace and also of having the perfect hourglass body shape. She kept the look simple with a strappy pair of Jerome Rousseau sandals and a bent nail bracelet. Keeping with the beauty regime of yesterday’s red carpet appearance, she kept her hair in natural messy curls and an almost makeup-less face.

Kristen Stewart headed to London to take her place at the top of the throne, as the queen of the Twilight Breaking Dawn: Part Two red carpet. With many of the other vampires still in America, KStew shone even brighter in an equally scandalous outfit as Monday’s premiere.

Kristen Stewart went back to Zuhair Murad for yet another red carpet look (could she be shying away from Balenciaga?) and this time, she went for a one-piece catsuit. What KStew didn’t shy away from is showing some more skin. This walk on the red carpet was a less obvious example of how to show skin than yesterday, but still there were a lot of glimpses at the actress’ body. The Zuhair Murad catsuit had elaborate detailing from a cut out back to sheer lace overlay on the side of the pants and the top. The lace on the front was strategically placed to cover what would merit a wardrobe malfunction. Kristen Stewart left her bright pink lipstick in Los Angeles and went for a more natural look beauty wise—her hair was a well-styled case of bed head and she had a subtle smoky eye.

Fitting that she was at the premiere of a vampire movie last night, as Dakota Fanning’s new dark hair colour was right in theme.

The actress was in Los Angeles for the world premiere of The Twilight Saga Breaking Dawn: Part 2 and stunned fans as she walked down the red carpet with a new dark-brown hair colour.

However, the switch isn’t a personal preference. Dakota Fanning assured Yahoo! Movies that her new hair colour is for an upcoming role, saying, “…for the character I was playing I couldn’t be a blonde.” Fanning also said her choice of dress “was totally dependent on my hair colour” and the teal Elie Saab Couture gown definitely seemed to work in her favour. Fanning completed the look with a Ferragamo minaudière and Charlotte Olympia heels.

And as we know, good fashion genes seem to run in the family, as Dakota’s sister Elle Fanning was also on hand last night to support her sister.

Kristen Stewart’s love token necklace continues to make red-carpet appearances on her Twilight media blitz, only now it seems the star has become somewhat bashful about her bejewelled PDA. The red pendant, which first popped up on Stewart last spring, is believed to be a romantic gift from her Twilight costar/real-life Romeo Robert Pattinson. It […]

If Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson could have predicted the future, maybe they wouldn’t have become immortalized as Bella and Edward in Twilight. With a little less fame (and drama and scandals), Patti Smith may have cast the couple in her film adaption of her best selling book, Just Kids.

The book, which became a New York Times bestseller after its release in 2010, documents Smith and photographer, Robert Mapplethorpe’s, relationship and struggles as artists in New York. Their relationship ended after seven years of living together, without a scandal—which is more than we can say for Kristen and Robert. Had Mapplethorpe and Smith reached the same levels of fame as the Twilight couple, remaining close friends would have been impossible.

It’s been a mind-bending year for actress Kristen Stewart. Sarah Daniel sits down with Balenciaga’s new fragrance face.

The 3 things we learned about Kristen Stewart during our interview »

In the advertising campaign for Balenciaga Florabotanica (from $90, at department stores and thebay.com), Kristen Stewart, the face of the dark floral fragrance, stands amid a minefield of ominously beautiful botanicals, inspired by the same vintage Pierre Frey wallpaper that influenced Nicolas Ghesquière’s Fall 2011 collection. Hovering near a stoic Stewart is what appears to be a Venus flytrap, angling to chomp down on her head.

“I think he’s fucking amazing,” Stewart says of Ghesquière, the house’s creative director and the man who wooed her to front its latest fragrance, perhaps with the promise that she wouldn’t have to pose on satin sheets—or smile. Though, on set, she would have been willing to cooperate if that had been the order of the day. “I was like, ‘Do you want me to stand a certain way to show the curves of the dress? Do you want me to model it up?’ By default, you sort of learn these things over the years, but they were like, ‘No, no, no, just stuff your hands in your pockets and just stand there.’”

As per usual, the Grey Goose Soho House was hoppin’ and poppin’ with celebs last night, as the staple spot hosted private parties for The Reluctant Fundamentalist, End of Watch and Silver Linings Playbook. Kate Hudson, in a Gwyneth-at-the-Oscars-esque white floor-length Atelier Versace dress, mingled pre-The Reluctant Fundamentalist red carpet. The bearded and babeular Jake Gyllenhaal popped by too, to toast his film End of Watch alongside Anna Kendrick and America Ferrera (who is really looking great these days, we might add).

At that point, it was still early and the celebs in attendance were all chatting up their co-stars and pals. But then Jennifer Lawrence showed up, and completely flipped the celebs-who-are-friends continuum on its head when she, in a body-hugging scale-like dress, started chatting to none other than Kristen Stewart! Could Katniss and Bella be new BFFs? Could a Twilight-meets-The Hunger Games movie be in the works? Are we taking this too far? Maybe. Kristen Stewart, who seemed to have shaken Thursday night’s glamazon look, was back to her usual jeans-and-t-shirt pairing. As an equally awesome addition to the mix: Jennifer Lawrence’s parents Gary and Karen Lawrence were also in attendance at the Soho House to toast their daughter’s TIFF premiere.
