Short hair is out! Kate Winslet says she hated having short hair. The 33-year-old actress sported a chin-length, textured bob at the New York premiere of her movie 'Hideous Kinky' in 1999, and insists she will never repeat the look.

Looking at a photo taken on the night, Kate said: "Bless my heart. Well, my boobs look good. Yeah, that was my short haircut — I hated it. I would never do it again. You have to do short hair. It's like a nightmare. It's just not flattering to my face shape — at all."

Kate — who raises two children with husband Sam Mendes, daughter Mia, eight, and five-year-old son Joe — is happier with the fresh-faced look she boasted at the New York premiere of 2008's 'The Reader', where she had flowing blonde locks and a deep tan.

Roberta Armani has praised Katie Holmes' "bold" fashion sense. The niece of Giorgio Armani — who is the director of public relations for the famous Italian fashion house — thinks more people should experiment with their clothes like the 30-year-old actress.

Roberta said: "Don't be scared to be bold. My friend Katie Holmes wore some amazing bright blue shoes with an orange Armani Prive dress last year to the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Gala in New York =— she looked fantastic."

Roberta's role in the fashion house is to recommend pieces to celebrities, in the hope of them wearing Armani gowns and suits to special events.

As well as helping famous faces choose the perfect piece to complement their figure, she also gives tips on how to accessorise for an important night out.

She explained to Britain's Grazia magazine: "Don't make too many statements. A show-stopping gown doesn't need major hair. Likewise, keep jewellery to a minimum. My uncle lives by the mantra 'less is more'. Look in the mirror and ask yourself, 'Is everything I have on performing a function? Is it all really necessary?' If not, remove it.

"Don't rush getting ready, and keep a fragrance just for special occasions. I keep one aside for red-carpet moments. It adds to the drama and excitement of what is to come."

The news on the street is that Miley Cyrus is launching a cut-price clothing line.

The 'Hannah Montana' star has teamed with Herve Leger designer Max Azaria for the fashion range, which will be sold exclusively in US chain store Wal-Mart.

Speaking about 'Miley Cyrus and Hank Azaria' — which includes graphic print t-shirts, tops, trousers and accessories — the singer-and-actress wrote on her Twitter page: "It's soooo cute Very rocker and hey who doesn't want a great deal!!! "I love u guys! I'm so exited to share this wit u. (sic)"

The range, all priced under $20, will hit stores in August Miley promises there will be another collection to follow it.

Yes it's true, Linda Evangelista applies her make-up in 10 minutes. The Canadian supermodel — who fronted last year's Prada Fall campaign and is the current face of L'Oreal Paris cosmetics — has learnt so many beauty tricks during her 30-year career she only takes a few minutes to perfect her appearance.

She said: "I did my own make-up this morning and it takes 10 minutes, tops! My best trick is to do it in natural light. I keep all my make-up on a huge mirrored tray and I just take it to whatever window is looking good that day."

However, the 44-year-old beauty is so particular about how her lips look she often turns down the industry's biggest make-up artists to make them up herself.

She explained to Britain's Grazia magazine: "I can't live without lip liner — it just makes my face and defines it like nothing else. My cheekbones are sucked in and everything just sharpens. I've been using it for years and I never let make-up artists do my lip liner on shoots, not even the big ones!

"I don't do lipstick. I think lip liner and a slick of gloss give a much more modern and plumping effect."

Justin Timberlake wants to take his clothing line global. The 'Sexy Back' singer — who launched his William Rast denim label in October 2006 — is so pleased with the success of his brand he wants to open stores in as many countries as possible.

A source told America's National Enquirer magazine: "It's doing so well that he's planning to open up boutiques around the world. It's worth tens of millions of dollars. He could sell it and retire."

The 28-year-old star recently topped GQ magazine's list of the 10 Most Stylish Men in America for his impact on fashion and his "knack for targeting trends".

Justin topped the list because of his willingness to take style risks with his use of hats, three-piece suits, skinny ties and facial hair.

Despite being voted the Most Stylish Man in America, Justin believes British supermodel Kate Moss is the ultimate fashion icon because she "could put a barrel on and it would be some sort of statement".

Love them or hate them, shorts show no sign of going away and while they send the fear of dread into lots of women, there is a style to suit all shapes and sizes. If you have never-ending pins, you can pull off most looks but try to make the most of your assets by purchasing some denim hotpants, in the style of Kate Moss.

However, beware of wearing them with high heels — flat gladiator sandals look best — and always cover up your chest to avoid flashing too much skin.

Shorts have always been seen as quite casual but teamed with a blazer or cardigan, they look smart and can even be worn to the office provided they are well tailored and not too short.

If your legs aren't your favourite feature, you can still get away with shorts. Stay away from high-waisted ultra short styles and puffed shorts, and be sure to get some with a structured top — loose-fitting fabrics can be hard to pull off if you aren't a six-foot-tall supermodel.

Talking about models, Madonna's boyfriend has appeared in a sexy new advert for Dolce and Gabbana.

Jesus Luz — who began dating the pop superstar earlier this year after meeting her on a steamy shoot for America's W magazine — stars alongside Eva Herzigova, David Gandy, Julienne Quevenne, Adam Senn and Noah Mills in the boxing-inspired shoot for the Italian fashion house's Autumn/Winter collection.

The campaign was shot in historical Brooklyn boxing sanctuary Gleason's Gym — where Mohammad Ali and Mike Tyson once trained — and photographer Steven Klein took inspiration from 1960 Italian movie 'Rocco e I Suoi Fratelli', about a family torn apart by love.

The campaign also includes an underwear advertisement — shot by Mariano Vivanco — which features five swimmers from the Italian national team posing at the iconic Circolo Aniene de Roma pool in Rome.

The advert will be featured in magazines in Italy, Britain, France, Germany and Spain later this month.

Jesus is not the only star to have recently featured in a campaign for a top fashion house.

'Harry Potter' actress Emma Watson makes her modelling debut for Burberry's autumn/winter 2009-10 collection.

Legendary photographer Mario Testino shot the pictures — which will go live from August — in various areas of London, including at Westminster Abbey, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament.

It is thought she agreed to appear in the shots as she is close friends with Burberry's creative director Christopher Bailey. Christopher said: "I wanted the images to represent both the rich history and the modernity of the Burberry brand, while at the same time reflecting a quiet beauty, timelessness and strength that is particularly significant today."
