A hot new Hollywood duo made their debut on Thursday night: former Neil George colorist Tracey Cunningham coupled up with hair and makeup guru Byron Williams to unveil the Byron & Tracey Salon in Beverly Hills (formerly known as the Byron Williams Salon). Host Rachel Zoe brought along a camera crew for her recently renewed Bravo reality show, The Rachel Zoe Project, to capture moments like her hugging former foe Nicole Richie. The stylist flitted around the crowded bash where guests, including Jenny McCarthy, toasted the stylish union with Martini & Rossi prosecco. “I couldn’t dream of a better marriage than Byron and Tracey. They share so many clients and so many friends. It’s like a big party here every day,” Zoe, clad in a sparkly 30s vintage dress, tells PEOPLE. Cunningham, who recently turned Drew Barrymore into a blond bombshell, agrees. “We can barely get them in the chairs because they all know each other and everyone’s friendly.” The colorist, who paints the locks of Cameron Diaz and Lindsay Lohan, adds, “We don’t tolerate, like, hoity-toity people.” Nicky Hilton, for one, digs the salon’s “social” vibe. “You’re always running into your girlfriends, so it’s fun to catch up,” she says. Playing catch-up at the party: Jordana Brewster and Lisa Rinna, who oohed and aahed over Tori Spelling’s hot post-baby bod. “Look at you! Shut up! You just had that baby 7 months ago. You rock!” Rinna gushed to the mother of two. — Jenny Sundel

Sneak Peek: Pamela Anderson Models for Vivienne Westwood

From Baywatch bombshell to sultry campaign model, Pamela Anderson is the latest star to grace cheeky ads for British designer Vivienne Westwood. The designer first met the bombshell at her runway show during London Fashion Week in September 2008, as Pamela sat front row in a barely-there gold lurex dress from Vivienne’s Gold label. When it came time to choose the face of her spring collection, Vivienne immediately thought of Pamela — and the rest is fashion history. Teaming up with legendary photographer Juergen Teller for the fourth season, the campaign was shot in and around Pamela’s trailer in Malibu. Pamela, Vivienne and Andreas Kronthaler, Vivienne’s husband and creative partner, model fashions from Westwood’s Gold, Red, Anglomania and MAN label as well as the accessories range. Photographs of the advertising campaign will be published as a coffee-table book and will start appearing in this month in magazines worldwide. Tell us: What do you think of Pamela Anderson’s Vivienne Westwood ad?

Patricia Fields Confesses to Her Latest Gig: Wardrobing Fisher’s Shopaholic!

Watch out Carrie Bradshaw, there’s a new fashionista in town. Confessions of a Shopaholic‘s Rebecca Bloomwood, portrayed by Isla Fisher, is taking over the Manhattan streets in a whirl of designer goodies. With the help of Emmy-Award winning costume designer Patricia Field — the mastermind behind Sex and the City and The Devil Wears Prada — Fisher takes the much-loved fiction character of Sophia Kinsella’s Shopaholic series to life. “This character just shopped her life away,” Field tells PEOPLE, “Her wardrobe was massive. Her room was filled with racks and accessories all over the place, and it was like she lived in her closet.” Patricia and Isla worked together to create a character with a “very harajuku” style. Never one to simply wear jeans and a T-shift, Rebecca is all about the accessories (from hats and gloves to bags and a signature green scarf), which, according to Field, is the key to staying fashion forward on a tight budget. “Don’t buy clothes, buy accessories,” she advises. “Accessories in general are what really create your look, more so than your clothing. You tell a story with accessories.” The famed costume designer says of the movie, which opens on February 13, “It’s fashion. It’s funny, it’s frivolous and it’s frantic.” We can’t wait!
