Ashley Greene on Her Last-Minute Premiere Look: “We Had to Start From Scratch”

Ramey

Twilight‘s Ashley Greene might have looked red-hot at last night’s L.A. premiere of the film series’ latest installment, New Moon, but she tells PEOPLE that finding her perfect scarlet Prabal Gurung stunner was no small matter. “We picked a dress out, had it ready,” Ashley says of a different look, which she originally chose with her stylist. But at the last minute, “I decided I didn’t like it and we had to start from scratch.” Just how down to the wire did it get? “I stopped by the tailors right before I got here to pick up the dress,” she admits. The rest of her red-carpet prep, however, was less of an ordeal. For two hours on the Sunday before the premiere, Ashley received eyelash extensions from expert Calma Yom at The Parlour on 3rd and then returned to the salon to have her hair extensions freshened up the following day. As for her bronzed skin, Ashley looked to St. Tropez tanning expert Fiona Locke, who customized and contoured her skin before the big event. The final touch came at the hands of makeup artist Vanessa Scali, who created the ’60s-inspired look for the Twilight star with “well-defined eyes with lots of lashes, a strong brow and clean skin with subtle pink [and] coral cheeks and lips.” Tell us: What did you think of Ashley’s head-to toe premiere style last night? –additional reporting by Lisa Ingrassia

RUMOR PATROL: Linday Lohan NOT Designing for bebe

Marion Curtis/Startraks

Looks like Lindsay Lohan hasn’t found herself another fashion job quite yet. Though Ungaro’s Artistic Advisor told Access Hollywood that she had teamed up with jewelry designer Pascal Mouawad to create a collection for bebe, WWD reports that it just isn’t so. According to the paper, Pascal Mouawad, who has partnered with Nicole Richie and Heidi Klum in the past, acknowledges that though discussions about launching a jewelry line with Lindsay for bebe did take place, the line “is not happening.” And a rep from bebe confirms that to PEOPLE, saying “We are not doing anything with her. There were talks months ago but we did not go forward with anything.” While Lindsay won’t be contributing to the bebe design team, you can still get star style at the retailer with Nicole Richie’s exclusive House of Harlow collection and Khloe, Kourtney and Kim Kardashian’s spring clothing line for bebe.

Gossip Girl Style Breakdown: Season Three, Episode Ten

Giovanni Rufino/The CW

There isn’t much that could have out-done last week’s infamous threesome, but leave it to Blair Waldorf (played by Leighton Meester) to make the steamy scene a thing of the past by securing an exclusive performance by Lady Gaga. And while Gaga took over the Gossip Girl set with her red-hot stage wear, we still couldn’t take our eyes off Vanessa Abrams’s color mix (played by Jessica Szohr) and Blair’s preppy plaid coats. While Vanessa stuck to her laidback style in a Diane von Furstenberg sweater coat paired with slouchy Brian Atwood booties and a blue L.A.M.B. bag, Blair was the picture of uptown sophistication in her Theory cape coat, red patent Manolo Blahnik peep-toes and black-and-white Chanel purse.
