Alexander Wang Is Bringing Back An 'SNL' Favorite For His Latest Fashion Ad

As one of "Saturday Night Live's" favorite characters used to say: “You can’t have-a-da-Mango!”

But as it turns out -- now you can. On June 3, Mango, better known as SNL's sketch character brought to life by Chris Kattan, teams up with Alexander Wang for his latest collection, T by Alexander Wang. In the 26-second short below, you can see familiar hints of Mango's signature look (pink top, gold shorts, beret) while taking in all of Mango's sass.

When asked by Style.com about the reasoning behind the partnership with the "SNL" superstar, Wang explained, “Sometimes when fashion becomes too stiff, it’s great to have someone such as Mango come through and inject a new burst of energy. Having fun and a sense of humor is so important to me that when I’m able to incorporate it into my work, I run with it.”

Established brands to their utmost to stay relevant by buying in young tastemakers - as DKNY did with Rita Ora - but there's no substitute for the truly new. And the best source of that is London. Ours is the next fashion week on the calendar - and it has more millennial designers on its schedule than New York, Milan and Paris put together.

This is the most searched-for brand in the US!

US designer Michael Kors is the most Googled US label, beating Marc Jacobs and Ralph Lauren.

Give us a dollar and we would have taken a punt on Marc Jacobs being the most Googled US fashion label - he's basically still the Big Deal at New York Fashion Week, despite the efforts of Alexander Wang, Proenza Schouler and the rest of the city's young guns, and he's got a huge global profile. However, they've all been trumped by Michael Kors.

The designer accounted for 19.6 per cent of the 31 million internet searches covering 10 international markets including the UK, China and the US, according to Digital Luxury Group , which puts together data for luxury brands. The research focused only on US labels between January - June 2012.

A host of fashion designers, including Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and Alexander Wang, are name-checked in the title's annual list of the under 30s impatient to change the world.

You might never heard of Carly Cushnie or Sophia Amoruso, but according to business magazine Forbes , these style setters are brightest talents of their generation.

London-born Cushnie, 28, has been dressing America's First Lady Michelle Obama in her Cushnie et Ochs label while Nasty Gal founder Sophia Amoruso's worth has been estimated at $250 million thanks to the directional but affordable website she founded six years ago.

Also listed in the 'Art & Style' category are designers Joseph Altuzarra (a rising star at New York Fashion Week); Sally LaPointe (beloved of Lady Gaga) and Brazilian Pedro Lourenço, who is just 22 years old and first showed at Paris Fashion Week aged 19.

Household names Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen - the child TV stars who head up several fashion ventures including The Row and Elizabeth & James - also feature, as does Alexander Wang, who was recently confirmed as the new creative director of Balenciaga.

24-year-old Leandra Medine has proved that a computer and a sense of humour can impact on millions: her blog Man Repeller, which puts clothes the opposite sex can't fathom in the spotlight, has earned her site over 2.6 million page views a month.

Is Balenciaga haute couture on the way?

François-Henri Pinault, the CEO of Balenciaga's parent company, has hinted that couture could be on the cards under the leadership of new creative director Alexander Wang.

Now that the speculation as to who will fill Nicolas Ghesquière's shoes at Balenciaga is over, rumours can begin as to what exactly Alexander Wang will bring to the storied French fashion house.

Speaking to WWD , François-Henri Pinault, the CEO of Balenciaga's parent company PPR, has given us this tasty little fashion morsel: Balenciaga could be about to move into couture once again.

Does this mean we could be seeing Balenciaga on the couture schedule in the next few seasons, courtesy of Wang? Or is it just simply a turn of phrase? Balenciaga is, after all, one of the original couture houses from the golden age of haute couture.

Jean Paul Gaultier designs new cone bra corset for Madonna

Among the numerous costumes that Madonna will be wearing throughout her MDNA World Tour is a masculine-inspired look by Jean Paul Gaultier featuring a corset-style top.

For the pop star's ninth world tour, the French designer drew upon a now-iconic costume he'd designed for her in the past.

"We played with the ideas of a suit and a corset. But the corset is now like a cage," Jean Paul Gaultier outlined. "What I have done this time is a nod to the conical bra corset of the Blond Ambition tour but reinterpreted in 3D, in patent leather on the outside with metallic leather on the inside. It's all about masculine and feminine, Madonna and Jean Paul Gaultier classics reinterpreted for 2012.

Madonna will also be wearing costumes by Dolce & Gabbana, Jeremy Scott and Alexander Wang.

Madonna has called on a host of famous designers to create her MDNA tour wardrobe, and has even got Prada to make high heels for her male dancers.

Madonna has managed to secure herself a wardrobe brimming with one-off designer creations for her MDNA tour, which kicked off last night. Along with designs by the likes of Alexander Wang and Jeremy Scott, the Queen of Pop has revisited her iconic Jean Paul Gaultier conical bra look with a wire-like bustier created especially by the designer and worn over some masculine tailoring.

"We played with the ideas of a suit and a corset. But the corset is now like a cage," Gaultier told WWD. "What I have done this time is a nod to the conical bra corset of the Blond Ambition tour but reinterpreted in 3-D, in patent leather on the outside with metallic leather on the inside. It's all about masculine and feminine, Madonna and Jean Paul Gaultier classics reinterpreted for 2012."

Meanwhile, Prada have created high-heeled shoes for Madge's male back-up dancers, following along nicely from her recent introduction of 'mantyhose' in her Girls Gone Wild video.

Unfortunately, the gladiator-style Givenchy getup created by Riccardo Tisci for Madonna's epic Superbowl performance will not be making an appearance, nor will any other creations by the designer, owing to schedule conflicts. - Telegraph
