Bleu Mae of Fleur de Lis was spotted wearing the William Tempest Fire Dress with a Rock ‘n’ Roll Angel Jackson fringe tote and Sergio Rossi Clyde Hi boots at London Fashion Week. Grazia snapped her as part of their "It’s the fashion front line -10 hot stories". If you want to stand in a crowd wear prints and colour!

An interview with Bleu Mae of Fleur de Lis (she’s the one in the middle).

How would you describe your fashion style?
Fashion is how you feel…. I’m pretty laid back but doll like. So probably grunge dolly is my style. AKA pretty dresses with chip nails and leather jackets. But I kinda just go with it - my hair is my statement thanks to the wonderful Tim at Tony&Guy - who sorted my dyi home job…

Who are your favourite designers?
There are soooo many but I love William Tempest sooo much I think if i could swan about in a William Tempest dress everyday I so would plus he’s the nicest guy. I love vintage prom dresses too!

Favourite shop?
High street it’s Topshop, Beyond Retro for my vintage dresses and my dream shop is The Shop at Bluebird and the Selfridges handbag department.

How would you describe your music?
I find it really hard to describe and I don’t want to put us in a genre people disagree with but I think its folk pop but with an American western feel to the sound. So our lyrics are heart felt pop tunes, ready for your dancing shoes but our sound is rooted deep from folk and American country.

How old were you when you wrote your first song?
About 13, about a boy in a band called the Kabeedies from Norwich who I became obsessed with and I wrote a song about him ignoring me and my undeniable love for him haha.

Who is Fleur de Lis? Tell us about your band.
Fleur De Lis is a 4 piece British folk/pop band. Its me Bleu Mae on Lyrics and Vocals - John Landau on Guitar - Jeremey on Percussion and Paul on Double bass. For future shows we maybe bringing in a special session musician with a cool instrument.

What festivals are you doing?
I’m doing lots of festivals this year I’m sooooo excited to get into the wellie action again.. .as a festival gooer the options of playing at Glastonbury, Underage, Latitude, Pukklepop, Lowlands and Reading is really exciting. Its just confirming stages and dates at the moment that are compatble with the release my single release.

Of all the celebrity wedding pictures I’ve seen over the years there is only one that stands out. Remember Brad Pit and Jennifer Aniston’s wedding picture, the black and white one? I loved it - it wasn’t just because they were the most attractive couple ever (Team Jen!) - it was exquisite, it was pretty, sincere and authentic.

I’ve always thought of wedding photography as cheesy, the kind of job for failed photographers, a mere stones throw away from taking school pictures for a living but as picture editor I’ve really appreciate all forms of photography, and this one is no different! It might even be harder - there are no re-shoots.

I think choosing your wedding photographer is almost as important as choosing who you want to spend the rest of your life with. These pictures represent the day you’ve been excited for for weeks/months/years and you want a photographer to capture this. You need to trust that person to get the most out of your day you’ve spent lots and lots (and lots) of money on.

A couple of my friends got married last year, they both went with a photographer that was either a friend or a friend of a friend, which I think is the safest bet. In theory the photographer is a guest at your wedding, they have a place at the table and they watch you take the plunge to marital bliss so you have to like that person.

I know how I want my photographs to look, I want a mixture of black and white and colour. I don’t want ‘cheese,’ stiff smiles and awkward posing. No thanks. I want atmosphere and lots of it! I’d ask people to not bring their digital cameras, instead I’d put disposables on the table for guests to snap with. But then that’s just me. If people are doing shots at the bar I want it captured, if everyone’s dancing to the YMCA I want it captured. So if it’s your friends behind the lens or a fabulous photographer just remember it’s forever!

Kate Moss wearing a William Tempest dress designed exclusively for Sport Relief. The dress is made partly from some blue recycled mosquito nets. The net comes in white, pink or blue - the nets look quite pretty, you can imagine them over a bed as if you were a princess, or outside at night for a party. It’s hard to believe that for £5 you could save a life with these nets - someone dies from malaria every 30 seconds.

This was an amazing shoot to style. I felt very lucky to be part of such talented team. Everyone donated their time, and everyone was really busy: the shoot took place a few weeks before fashion week! It’s important, though: fashion can be so powerful and really get a message out there. Sport Relief is one of the UK’s biggest fundraising events and since it’s launch in 2002 they’ve raised over £80 million.

The shoot was an easy but exciting day. Everything ran so smoothly. Kate’s team was really lovely (and fun) to work with: James Brown did her hair and Karina Constantine did the make up. The photographer was Tyrone Lebon. We had lot of lovely jewellery and Kate wore an elegant Stephen Webster Vortex Cuff in Yellow Gold with White Diamonds.

What can I say about Kate Moss? She’s so fun and personable, she was so easy to work with and she’s easily the best model I’ve ever seen in action. We hear the word supermodel every day and it starts to lose it’s meaning, but when you get to actually work with a model like Kate Moss you’re reminded of what the word supermodel really means.

William Tempest and Kate Moss!

Jessica Bumpus (Vogue.com), Courtney Blackman (FBC) and me all wearing our 3D glasses at Alice in Wonderland. I’ve been looking forward to this film for ages!

I really just wanted to see the makeup - which was amazing. Oscar winning makeup artist Valli O’Reilly was the head makeup artist for the flim. (She’s also Canadian.) Valli did a double major in art history and theatre and studied sculpture. She planned to be an artist and started out doing makeup for friends for New York TV commercials and fashion to earn extra money.

The makeup for Helena Bonham Carter took about two and half hours each day to transform her into the bulbous headed Red Queen. It’s important for the makeup to be more flawless than normal as they worked in High-Def and 3-D.

Makeup Forever eyeshadow in blue was used on the ‘eyes’ but when they first did the makeup tests O’Reilly used Yves Saint Laurent. O’Reilly first hand painted the lips and then created a stencil to be used to recreate the look for every day.

The White Queen’s lips are a dark plum that was brushed on with a very fine brush. The nails are a black-plum in Nars or Essie.

The Mad Hatter’s look is my favourite. Johnny Depp’s personal makeup artist, Patty York did his makeup.

The makeup notes indicate that the period that inspired the Mad Hatter’s wardrobe was also a period where a lot of people had different chemical poisoning (which also would have made them a bit disturbed), and that The Mad Hatter in this interpretation has mercury poisoning, so this influenced his whole look. One eye is lavenders and purples, and on the other is turquoise, light and dark blue with green. I like the white eyeliner with white eyelashes and the lower pink ones. It will be interesting to see how the makeup influences the spring and summer trends. I imagine we’ll be seeing more blue eye shadow!

Yes, the bum bag or fanny pack is back (it made huge headlines in the 1980’s to mid -1990’s). It’s main attraction is that they are hands-free! Many of us fear the bum bag. It used to be only the geeky tourist or hikers who would wear them but now they’ve really become a festival staple. They’re rarely worn on the bum - wear it on the front to look cool and avoid any pick-pockets. You can also fit quite a lot of stuff - a mobile, some money, antibacterial hand gel, sunscreen and some tissues.

This cowgirl bum bag is from Angel Jackson and you just know it’s going to be a huge hit on the festival circuit. It’s easy to imagine wearing it with your favourite demin shorts - add a pair of hunter wellies with long socks, a cool T, a pair of Ray Bans and you’re good to go.
