What it is: A crazy-tight (is there any other kind?) rubber corset, used to slim one’s midsection
Who tried it: Zoë Ruderman, PEOPLE.com Senior Style Editor
Why she did it: Because Jessica Alba recently revealed that wearing a corset “day and night for three months” post-pregnancy was how she lost her baby weight. And while I didn’t just give birth, I have a pretty firm policy that I’ll try most everything Alba recommends.
How crazy is it on a scale from one to Kim Kardashian’s blood facial? If I’d worn it as much as she had, a 7, but I did the “lite” version, so a 4.

Emma Watson in W: ‘I’ve Never Been in a Terrible Rush to be Seen as a Woman’

If her last magazine cover didn’t have you convinced, this one certainly will: Emma Watson is officially all grown up.
Not that that’s ever been the ultimate goal, she shares in the June/July issue of W magazine — and we’ve got the exclusive first look.
“I’ve never wanted to grow up too fast. I wanted to wear a sports bra until I was 22!” she says. “The allure of being sexy never really held any excitement for me. I’ve never been in a terrible rush to be seen as a woman.”

But after years of playing schoolgirl Hermione Granger, Watson was ready for a change — so she cut her hair and took darker roles like that of Nicki, a celeb-burgling teen in the upcoming The Bling Ring. And she quickly went from plaid skirts to a very different kind of on-set wardrobe.
“Who wouldn’t love to go to work in Uggs and very low-slung tracksuit bottoms?” the star says of Nicki’s Paris Hilton-chic attire. “At one point I told the costumer designer, ‘You can see my bra strap in this top; shouldn’t we pin it?’ And she said, ‘No, sweetie — Nicki is all about her bra strap showing.’ I was like, Right, okay, different mind-set.”

Nicole Kidman may be serving on the Cannes jury, but a day and a half into the French film festival, we’ve already delivered our verdict on her style: She’s guilty of looking awesome.
In her first three looks at Cannes, she’s knocked it out of the sartorial park — and set a high bar for all other Cannes-going starlets to reach.
First up, for a juror cocktail party, she wore a head-to-toe Dior look that epitomizes what every girl hopes she looks like in her LBD — from the perfect fit of the sequin sheath to the sassy-yet-classy heels and clutch and the subtle sparkle of her Cathy Waterman hoops.

First up, her hair, done by Benoit Moeyaert at N.Y.C.’s Marie Robinson salon. After combing Phyto mousse through her wet hair for texture, Moeyart blew her hair out with a round brush.
“While it was still warm, I rolled sections around two fingers (about an inch wide and an inch-and-a-half high) and pinned them with clips,” he tells PEOPLE. After letting her hair cool in those “pin curls,” he shook the hair out and brushed it all out, then curled it again by using a curling iron in alternating directions.

Dancing With the Stars judge Carrie Ann Inaba joins us again to blog about her style (and all the backstage scoop) on the show’s 16th season. This week, she discusses the search to find a look that’s as special as the show’s major milestone.
300 episodes! Wow! It’s an incredible feeling to celebrate our 300th episode. To be a part of a show that has had 300 episodes completed; well, it’s an honor, to say the least. I wanted to point out that there are three people who have been on every single episode from Day 1. Those three people are myself, Tom Bergeron, and Bruno Tonioli.
It’s been a wonderful ride of 300 nights of dancing. With wonderful and extraordinary choreography, beautiful costumes and incredible production value, I’m really proud of our team. It takes so many people to make a show happen.
In honor of the 300th celebration I wanted to make sure what I was wearing tonight made me feel like I was going to the hottest party in town. A little rock star, a little sexy, a little sophisticated.
