"The secret behind 'that' outfit"
|
It
just gets better for the lovely Cheryl, her first solo single and
album are at the top of the charts. She has a lucrative contract
with L'Oreal to promote their latest hair products. She appears
each week as a judge and mentor in 'The X Factor' and sets the fashion
trend for women across the world.
So what is the secret behind that amazing red and black outfit,
she wore to wow everyone, when she sang and danced across 'The X
Factor' stage. The answer is a talented designer called Julien MacDonald.

The prestigious fashion designer has praised the Girls Aloud singer
for her stylish dress-sense and says the brunette beauty is a joy
to work with.
He said: "I've been working with Cheryl for a long time, she's attended
my shows and we've formed a friendship. She's an amazing style ambassador
- a working, modern, down-to-earth woman. It's a pleasure to dress
her. I never know what she's going to wear until I see it on screen.
She is her own stylist and controls what she wears. She's a beautiful
woman and always looks amazing. She's a joy to dress."
Cheryl and Julien first became close when the Welsh designer styled
the girl band for their past tours. More recently, the designer -
who has succeeded Alexander McQueen as chief designer at the Paris
Haute Couture house of Givenchy - dressed the British songstress for
her live performance on 'The X Factor'.

Cheryl wore
a sexy red and black, military-inspired ensemble complete with matching
hat when she sang.

explained "The first time she put the outfit on, I screamed and said
'You look amazing!' and she was jumping up and down and loved it.
She wanted a hard military look, but wanted it to be current and have
a dance energy. It was taken from things she loves - she does a lot
of dance so upbeat tracksuit pants with a slash - so that when she's
dancing her legs flash through which is a bit cheeky. Underneath is
one of my new swimwear pieces. She liked the idea of athletic and
swimwear together and then the military jacket with exaggerated shoulders
to give a fashion shoulder." |
