Warby Parker Makes Man of Steel Eyeglasses in Movie Tie-In

Warby Parker Man of Steel
This is cool. Warner Bros. partnered with Warby Parker on Man of Steel eyeglasses! Media Post reported that the agency that put the deal together first met with Warby and the studio at a South By Southwest event in early 2012. How's that for networking?

Warby Parker is connecting sales of the Superman models to charity, donating to a nonprofit for every set of glasses sold. We are loving the collaboration. Check out all the styles!

Man of Steel hits theatres today!

Film & TV Costume Design Student Works on AFI Film

Jill Sorensen FIDM gradSalt Lake City, Utah native Jill Sorensen is studying Film & TV Costume Design on the Los Angeles campus, and just finished working as an assistant costume designer on an AFI film called 113º!

"Officially I was the assistant costume designer and my classmate, Melissa Himawan, was the lead costume designer. I helped with prepping a few days before filming, and worked as a set costumer for a week during filming. The level of creativity and professionalism on this film was unsurpassable. The movie is set in space, in the future, while the space ship is breaking down. If that is not intense then I don't know what is. The costumes were fantastic and extremely well thought out. Most of the garments were hand-dyed by Melissa and adorned with custom-designed patches..."

FashionClub at the Twilight Premiere!

Robpattinson OMG! The Twilight Premier in Los Angeles just two blocks away from FIDM?! I couldn’t believe it! With Fashion Club Manager Clarissa Ramirez in tow we walked last Wednesday afternoon and got the coveted Twilight Premier wristbands. Apparently Nokia Theater, directly across from STAPLES Center, home of our championship Lakers and FIDM's Graduation Ceremony, was where the event would take place on Thursday, June 24th.

The event was scheduled to begin at 5:00PM, which meant that we would be only a few feet away watching the sunset as our beloved Twilight stars walked the red carpet. Like most of the people in the whole world, we fell in love with the story and the characters. Of course, we knew how photogenic “our” werewolf and vampire could be so we charged our cameras the day before, made a “Fashion Club.com Loves Twilight” sign to get their attention, in hopes of capturing all the beautiful and handsome faces we would get to see from the red carpet.

This was honestly my first Hollywood movie Premier and I seriously was expecting to be twenty feet away from where all the action would be since I was number 566 out of 1,000. I was SO surprised that my coworker and I were on the red carpet only 3 feet away from the oncoming limousines and movie stars! Anxiously waiting for them to arrive in the hot sun for 3 hours before their 5:00 PM arrival has to show some dedication! It’s amazing how a love of Twilight can unite so many people in one place! I met fans that had come for the Premier from all over the world like Switzerland, Brazil, and England. I am now Facebook friends with girls from Orange County, Florida, and Washington! Mothers, fathers, daughters & sons were all there to show their love for Twilight.They were the same dedicated people who had either camped out since Monday morning June 21st, when Nokia started giving out the wristbands, or stood in line since 11 AM the day of the event to get a great spot for pictures and autographs. At 5:00 PM the stars started to arrive, one limousine or town car after another! Every time a car came right up to the red carpet, we would all yell in anticipation of who was inside. My new friends and I started taking pictures like crazy!!!!

I seriously got caught in the moment as movie stars like Tia and Tamara from “Sister Sister," Kim & Khloe Kardashian, Aly & AJ and Mario Lopez all either stopped for autographs and pictures or both! THE REAL screams and hollers came when our Twilight stars arrived. I couldn’t believe how amazing they all looked!!! Thursday June 24th is a day I will never forget, not to mention I got our sign autographed by Edward & Jacob!!! Check out the gallery for pictures from the day courtesy of Clarissa Ramirez, my new friend Jasmine Henslee, and myself

A Very Special Edition of Missa's Monday Match: Inspiration Mandy Moore

Every Monday, we've brought you the latest looks from stars like Taylor Momsen, Leighton Meester, Jessica Stroup, Ashley Tisdale, Blake Lively, and Rihanna

Since its launch this past April, Monday Match has grown into one of FashionClub.com Daily's most-exciting features, thanks to future student of FIDM's Fashion Design School, Maryssa "Missa" Stumpf of Missa by Design.

MM_MandyMoore

This week, we're marking our exciting run by honoring singer, actress, fashion designer, and philanthropist, Mandy Moore. At just 25 years of age, Mandy Moore has released six studio albums, starred in seventeen films, appeared on six hit television shows, and been an inspiration to students in fashion design schools all over the world. Best known for her 1999 chart-topping single "Candy," she is an accomplished film star, appearing in such classics as A Walk to Remember, Saved, Because I Said So, and License to Wed.

2009 was a busy year for Mandy, as the release of her sixth studio album entitled, "Amanda Leigh," was followed by the announcement that she would voice the title character in Disney's 2010 animated production of Rapunzel. Coupled with the announcement of a surprise wedding to rocker Ryan Adams earlier this year, Mandy also led the way philanthropically, supporting such organizations as DoSomething, Population Services International, YouthAIDS, and the Gynecological Cancer Foundation

Shown here at Dubai's Sixth Annual Film Festival, Mandy was a featured guest amongst the likes of Queen Noor Al Hussein of Jordan, Sarah Duchess of York, Christina Ricci, and Sarah McLachlan. Rocking the red carpet in a beautiful Escada gown, Mandy completed the look with a silver clutch and diamond ear rings.

To all of our readers: Thank You!

Enjoy!
