PRINCESS VS PRINCESS: 

SNOW WHITE VS MIDDLETON...

WHICH PRINCESS IS THE UK'S MOST SEARCHED STYLE ICON? 

STEWART IS!

Zimbio

As popular as she is, hounded by the paparazzi and married to one of the most beloved individuals in the world, the UK's Princess Kate Middleton has become one of the standard bearers of fashion in the world.  Everyone wants to know "Who's she wearing?" on the daily basis. 

So it is beyond surprising to find out that someone who is known more for her dressed down look of tee shirts, slim jeans, hoodies and sneakers is the UK's #1 Most Searched Celebrity Style Icon of 2012.  Well, at least it's not surprising to her fans.

SWATH's Princess (now Queen) Kristen Stewart beat out Middleton in this annual poll.  No matter if it is surprising to the lesser fan or follower of Stewart, anyone who does follower her would find this not to be so. 

Here's the key: Do not judge Kristen by what she wears when she travels or is running errands around town because she is dressing for comfort and not for style even though she still has it.  Believe it or not, she has a style that girls want to copy no matter what she is wearing. What one would consider to be a ratty looking tee shirt will get sold out in stores just because she wore it. But when it comes to the red carpet she is second to NONE! 


Stewart is feature on the covers and in the top fashion magazines.

In an interview with Mexico's Skyview Magazine, Stewart expressed an interest in fashion, "I like fashion because it’s part of my work. I dive into the new trends when I have to, but I’m more of jeans and t-shirt kind of girl."  





If anyone follows Twitter, Stewart's style is constantly being searched.  Fashionistas like @courtjustice tweet almost daily about everything Stewart wears from the casual to the red carpet.  If a photo of Stewart hits the internet, within minutes fans will know the designer,  where to buy it, when it walked the runway, the price of each item worn from head to toe; and if it is too expensive, where to purchase the most similar clothes to the style for a more affordable price. Therefore, a girl or woman would be able to buy the look no matter what she wore.

When Stewart steps out on the red carpet, it is almost a guaranteed Trending Topic on Twitter.  Her appearance at the Paris Fashion Week's Balenciaga show on Thursday sent "Balenciaga" trending on Twitter with hundreds of tweets about what she was wearing. 

Elle UK may have helped tip this poll in Stewart's favor with their #KristenElle Twitter Photoshoot Promotion in March which also helped boost their magazine sales. 

No matter what you make think of Stewart's style be it the "tom boy casual" or the "red carpet icon", Stewart's got style!

Check out the rest of the "Top 10" list below and a few photos of Stewart's recent red carpet looks below.

Kristen Stewart & Selma Hayek

A little after 4am east coast time, the Balenciaga Paris fashion show began.  Although the clothes were to be the highlight, SWATH's own Kristen Stewart being the face of Balenciaga's new fragrance Florabotanica stole the show. Someone tweeted that there were more paparazzi outside than fashion show patrons entering. 

Broadcast via Livestream on Balenciaga's website, Stewart's entrance was the most anticipated as photogs clamored to take pictures of her alongside Academy Award nominated actress Selma Hayek before the show began.  After the show ended, "Balenciaga" began trending on Twitter and there is only one reason for that...Stewart.

Placement at a fashion show lets one know where one stands in the pecking order of the fashion elite. Stewart, seen in this photo, was seated next to fashion icon and Vogue Magazine guru Anna Wintour. Yes, Stewart is high up on that ladder.

NEW PHOTO OF STEWART & EXCERPTS OF INTERVIEW IN BRITISH VOGUE

Kristen Stewart is gracing the cover of the October issue of British Vogue for the first time and as usual, the cover is causing a stir (see below).  Looking glamorous and sexy as she promotes her new film On the Road in the interview. 

British Vogue supplied the following excerpts:

"I know that if you haven't thought about how you want to present a very packaged idea of yourself then it can seem like you lack ambition. But, dude, honestly? I can't," said Stewart. 

"People expect it to be easy because there you are, out there, doing the thing that you want and making lots of money out of it. But, you know, I'm not that smooth. I can get clumsy around certain people. Like if I were to sit down and think, 'OK, I'm really famous, how am I going to conduct myself in public? I wouldn't know who that person would be! It would be a lot easier if I could, but I can't."

Although Stewart's private life has fallen prey to a media storm over the past month, her career is increasingly on the rise. She currently stars in the film version of Jack Kerouac's iconic novel, On The Road, in which she plays 16-year-old MaryLou - a character based on the young wife of Neal Cassady. The non-conformist liberal nature of the Beat Generation is something the 22-year-old actress relates to.

"There is always going to be that seam of people who want things differently to the standardised version," she said. "It's not necessarily a rebellious thing, it's just who they are. That world back then, it just seems freer to me than anything I could ever touch and I'm fully nostalgic for it, even though I wasn't even alive then. It's the loyalty aspect of it all. I love being on the periphery with a group of people who have the same values that I do. People who don't get off on fame, who just like the process of making movies and thrive."

The magazine will be released on September 7th.

Vogue UK also takes a look at Stewart's style over the years.  Check it out here.

BIG SCREEN HEROINES INFLUENCE STRONG FEMALE FASHION

Vogue

Back in July we introduced the more tough female SWATH-style that was being shown on the runways, now the LA Times is reporting that this will be the trend for the fall.  Women's fashion will be edgier based upon the strong female characters seen on the cinematic screens.

Vogue featured SWATH influenced fashion, now the LA Times is reporting of more film fashion influences based on Merida of 'Brave' to Lisbeth Salander of 'The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo'.

Style based on The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

The LA Times writes:

"Forget the Gossip Girls, Joan Holloway, Bettie Page and those other retro chicks. There is a new feminine ideal this fall, and she kicks butt. If the last five years have been dominated by the preening and pristine women of "Mad Men," we are now shifting to a tomboy ideal.

"...leather is everywhere this fall? Versace's studded, second-skin leather dresses and Givenchy's kimono-sleeve coats and jumpsuits are the stuff of action heroes."

"At the extreme, the new tough is also defined by a bold new silhouette. Big on the top and the bottom, it's not for everyone. But if you could pull off one of Proenza Schouler's oversized jackets inspired by fencing, karate and judo, worn with a pair of slouchy, wide-leg trousers (a look also seen at Balenciaga), you could be your own fight club."

"Bold silhouettes. Future shock. Dark romance. Drama. The toughest thing of all may be having to choose."

"It's about swagger in all its varied forms, from dandyish to downright dangerous."
