"Star Trek: Into Darkness" is taking some flak for a scene in which Alice Eve, playing Dr. Carol Marcus, strips down to panties and bra ... for no real reason. Screenwriter Damon Lindelof acknowledged via Twitter, "We should have done a better job of not being gratuitous in our representation of a barely clothed actress." [Hollywood Life]

The Dockers "men of style" video advertising campaign is an all-boys club no more. Credit for cracking the khaki ceiling goes to Los Angeles-based author -- and authority on all things tomboy -- Lizzie Garrett Mettler.

The brand's just-released first-ever "women of style" video (see below) shows the author of "Tomboy Style: Beyond the Boundaries of Fashion" sitting on her couch, digging through her closet and walking her dog while wearing a black, button-front shirt and black-colored khakis and talking about her affinity for wearing the pants.

"I went to boarding school for high school and we...

 Sure, David Beckham has announced his retirement from soccer, but we assume his career as an international style icon will continue — including, we hope, his role as an underwear model for H&M.

We appreciate Beckham’s long-time embrace of metrosexual style (Salon magazine declared him the ultimate "metrosexual") and recall, fondly, his braided hair, sarongs and mohawk.  And we’re guessing that his face will continue to grace the covers of magazines such as Esquire and “W.”

Will he follow his wife, Victoria, into the fashion design world? It’s unclear, of...

The 66th annual Cannes Film Festival opened Tuesday in France -- or should we call it the Dior film festival? Dior's Raf Simons designed the ravishing haute couture creations worn by four ladies at the opening ceremony -- Nicole Kidman, Carey Mulligan, Zhang Ziyi and Julianne Moore.

Mulligan wore a blush matte satin gown, Kidman a two-layer embroidered pale pink silk organza bustier dress, Moore a purple and black lame bustier dress and Ziyi a killer fuchsia embroidered tulle cutoff ballgown and black cigarette pants. Jeweler Chopard, a sponsor of the festival for 16 years running, doled out...

The touring "Hats Off to Dr. Seuss!" exhibit is part of a year-long celebration to mark the 75th anniversary of Theodor "Seuss" Geisel's second book, "The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins," (and the one I credit with sparking my life-long love of hats) and marks the first time the eclectic collection of headgear, curated by Chase Art Companies, has traveled outside the Seuss estate.
