Cindy Ord/Getty Speaking about her 30 Rock makeup artists at Thursday night’s New York Women in Film & Television Designing Women awards, Tina Fey spoke of the ladies’ ability to accomplish, well, anything. “Over the last six years they’ve turned Tracy Morgan into a werewolf , turned Will Forte into a beautiful Jane Krakowski and they’ve turned Jane Krakowski into no less than three men, two of whom were African-American ,” the actress shared with the crowd at Macy’s Herald Square.

Adele video , posted with vodpod If you’re trying to spot Adele in London, look for the lady in the PJs. “I walked through Trafalgar Square on a Saturday afternoon — tourist haven — in pajamas,” the Grammy winner tells Matt Lauer in the upcoming NBC Adele Live in London special. Even more shocking? The songstress was wearing color. “I’m always in black,” she says. “It was this tracksuit, with a massive green coat and little pink pumps

Bravo; Pacific Coast News Do ladies who’ve loved alike, dress alike? Late last week, we spotted LeAnn Rimes out in Malibu wearing Michelle Jonas Travelwear’s keyhole dress in “Italian moss” ($235). She paired the maxi — which features an open back — with an unstructured tan blazer, pink purse and booties. Interestingly enough, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville — who was once married to Rimes’s current husband, Eddie Cibrian — wore the same dress in blue on the most recent season of the Bravo show. The reality vixen sported the dress as-is and paired it with breezy sandals on a Hawaiian episode entitled “Leis and Lies in Lanai.” Since it is such a style coincidence, we have to ask: Who wore her maxi dress best?

Courtesy Lionsgate We’re still trying to wrap our heads around The Hunger Games ‘s Capitol Couture site — Who writes it? Why does it seem so mysterious? — but a recent posting caught our eyes. According to the site, Rodarte is contributing at least one piece to the film, a “charming chapeau” (above) that “could indeed be gracing a head of a Capitol socialite at this year’s Opening Ceremonies.” The tulle-and-knit hat is made of mohair, alpaca and “other various wools” — all (fictionally) courtesy of District 11, the nation of Panem’s agricultural center

Murray Close Watch that lighter, Cinna! Entertainment Weekly has an exclusive first look at Katniss Everdeen ( Jennifer Lawrence ) and Peeta Mellark’s (Josh Hutcherson) flammable black Hunger Games unitards — and though unlit, they’re pretty cool. The costumes, designed in party by Everdeen’s stylist Cinna (Lenny Kravitz), are eventually set aflame, and the two young stars dazzle the people of Panem as they ride through town the night before the games begin. Last month, InStyle asked several designers to imagine the fiery costumes , with Christian Siriano, Charlotte Ronson and Nicole Miller creating super-cool yellow, orange and red interpretations of the look. Though we’ll have to wait until the film’s release on March 23rd to see the costumes aglow, this first look is definitely getting us excited. Tell us: How did you envision the flammable costumes?

Olivier Douliery/ABACA In only five years, Jason Wu has dressed a First Lady , been inducted into the CFDA and debuted a collection for Target , but that doesn’t mean he’s used to the lifestyle. “A few years ago all I wanted to do was succeed in fashion,” he reveals on Wednesday’s premiere episode of Out of Character with Krista Smith on USA (airing at 11 p.m. EST). “I didn’t think my work would be in the museum,” he says of the inaugural gown he designed for Michelle Obama , which currently lives at the Smithsonian . Though he never fathomed Obama would select his dress — and effectively change his life forever — Wu always designs with a person in mind. “I think it’s important to have a connection with the person you’re dressing,” he shares

On NBC’s Community , Alison Brie plays Annie, a tightly wound college student with a penchant for pretty patterns and conservative looks. But offscreen, Brie says she definitely differs from her character. “I’m probably not as concerned with being appropriate all the time, and quite as buttoned up,” she tells PEOPLE in the clip above. “But I do follow her lead in terms of dressing feminine. She’s all about skirts and dresses all the time. And I’m big on that too — I can be a girly girl sometimes.” Crediting her show’s wardrobe department with keeping Annie cute — she’s even snagged a few of her character’s skirts and sweaters — Brie says she prefers dressing for work over dressing for the red carpet

For tonight’s season premiere (9 p.m. on ABC), Hebert selected Rahm’s Swarovski crystal-studded “Diamond AB” gown to wear while facing her suitors. “Randi’s looks capture the excitement, glamour and a bit of glitz that makes dressing both fashionable and fantasy,” Bachelorette costumer Cary Fetman said in a release. “Both Ashley and I love the sexy hugs and curves that Randi’s dresses provide.” Known for her use of dramatic colors and sleek embellishments, Rahm has also dressed stars like Beyoncé , Catherine Zeta-Jones , Halle Berry , Fergie and Carrie Underwood

Six adult friends dealing with love and relationships while navigating their own professional and personal lives. It might sound a lot like Friends , but it’s actually ABC’s new series, Happy Endings , which examines what happens to friendships when a couple splits. Though the subject matter can be touchy, the fashion looks totally fun! In this behind-the-scenes video, the show’s costume designer, Keri Smith, talks about dressing the female stars for their roles in looks inspired by Banana Republic . “It’s always exciting to get the script,” she says. “I love reading it and seeing what the kids are up to.” Those ‘kids’ include 24 ‘s Elisha Cuthbert, who plays free-spirit Alex. “I love Alex’s character, and I love dressing Alex,” shares Smith, who says the look she created for the role is a mix of urban and bohemian.

She may have designed her line L.A.M.B. just for herself , but Gwen Stefani was willing to share her wardrobe with the ladies of American Idol this week when she dressed them for Wednesday’s show. Thursday night, Idol took us backstage to the fitting session — every girl’s dream! — where Stefani helped choose outfits for the budding superstars. Admitting that she was not a stylist — and even a bit nervous! – the No Doubt rocker first pulled pants and a jacket “literally out of my closet” for contestant Hailey Reinhart. She ended up choosing a different outfit, though: a checkered linen tabard top and leather pants. Pia Toscano, who was sent home Thursday night, rocked a “tribal” animal-print jumpsuit and layered on some accessories

FOX “I sort of made a conscious effort all my career not to end up in a bathing suit in a movie,” newlywed Reese Witherspoon told reporters Saturday at a Water for Elephants event in Los Angeles. “And here I was in this movie wearing a leotard [for] the majority of it.” But once she got into character as Marlena, a cruel circus trainer’s wife, she didn’t mind showing a little extra skin. “They were beautiful,” she said of the costumes. “It was a different time when women loved their curves and enjoyed being voluptuous.” Witherspoon shared that she trained “a lot” for her role by riding circus elephants and horses. And while she didn’t end up “dirty” like her on-screen love interest, Robert Pattinson , she did experience a change thanks to glam 1920s hair and makeup. “It was really transforming for me,” she shared.

When the brunette beauty isn’t busy modeling for labels, including Spanish retailer Mango , or sitting front row at high-fashion events , the socialite is likely working on her latest venture: a clothing line! In fact, reports Racked.com , Olivia revealed to Spanish Vogue that the premise of her new reality show will revolve around the launch of her own collection. No word on whether she’ll turn to her fellow City alum, Whitney Port (who also pioneered her clothing line on TV !) for advice. However, if the success of her first jewelry collaboration is any indication, Olivia’s likely to do just fine on her own.
