ONE LAST THING

IT’S A ZOO OUT THERE

Written by: Tannya Bernadette / Photo by: Paramount

Derek (Ben Stiller) and Hansel (Owen Wilson) made a celebratory
come back after strutting down the catwalk in the Valentino
fashion show back in February and their grand announcement of
the upcoming sequel Zoolander 2. Fans, old and new are waiting
for opening day to see the hot new cast and fame obsessed comedy
of the extremes in fashion and society today. There is a lot of buzz
around the new characters, which includes Kristen Wiig (Alexanya
Atoz), Penelope Cruz (Valentina), Benedict Cumberbatch (All), Justin
Bieber, Usher, and Miley Cyrus. There is no doubt this is going to be a
hit. The trailer had over 52 million views within a week of its release
and according to Paramount, is an all time high for a comedy trailer.
This time around the movie takes place in Europe, fashion capital of
the world, and the highly anticipated characters are set to inspire
new looks with five trends we are loving. Zoolander 2 will be released
in theaters February 12, 2016.
HANSEL’S SILK PANTS
I’ve admired the men’s silk pant look on the runway, but Hansel really
pulls it off very nicely. When I initially think of soft silky silhouettes
I think of a very feminine piece due to the draping and shine the
fabric gives off. Hansel proves us wrong and pairs his pajama-like
trousers with leather necklaces, sandals, blazers and linen shirts
giving off a handsome hippie vibe right in tune with this spring’s
pajama fashion trend. With his laid back persona in the movie, his
casual high fashion outfits compliment his character accordingly.
ALEXANYA’S RUFFLE PLAID JACKET
After posting an Instagram photo teaser, the public went crazy
trying to figure out who played Alexanya because her character’s
body and facial features dramatically changed for the role. We now
know the European-over the top fashion model is played by Kristen
Wiig. Her clothing is tailored perfectly with every ruffle pressed
exactly in place. We still only know little about this character at the
moment but are intrigued by her trendy style and overly plumped
botox lips.
DEREK AND HANSEL’S COLORED CAMOUFLAGE HOODIE & TEE
While on a mission amongst the sparkle and shine in a room full of
models, the characters must wear colorful camouflage to hide in the
crowd. The matching hoodie and tee camouflage gear doubled as a
fashion statement and a way of masking their identity. It’s the print
to watch. Since the Derek and Hansel debut on the runway, other
designers such as Dior, Homme, Neil Barrett, and Louis Vuitton have
added the military print to their designs for their spring/summer
2016 collection. Guess the two former famous models are not so out
of style as they think.

HANSEL’S MAN JEWELRY
Men’s jewelry is not commonly worn, but in almost every scene of the
trailer Hansel is wearing a different necklace with his outfit and looks good.
Hansel’s free spirit character has a down-to-earth style with layered looks
and necklaces of all kinds. The materials prove to be very masculine made
of mainly braided leather, twisted rope, and substantial silver elements. This
hippie model has a step up on personal style.
VALENTINA’S EMBROIDERED PONCHO
Secret Interpol agent Valentina is hot. Hansel quoted, “She’s hot, we trust her.”
Valentina’s duty is to stop the killing of ridiculously good looking people and
at the same time look ridiculously hot. There is a scene where she is wearing a
sheer black poncho embe
