What the Hef?

Yes, in addition to exposing his lifestyle to the masses with the wildly success-ful Girls Next Door (photo at left via starpulse.com),
Mr. Hefner has started marketing his image with a line of mens shoes.

Hef's signature style was represented on both the Resort and Fall runways:

CC thinks Hef was onto something when he decided to host parties wearing a silk robe... though she would advocate swapping the slippers for stilettos!
Lounge in luxurious style or play hostess in these sumptuous kimonos, all available at net-a-porter.com.
Emilio Pucci Sundial georgette gown
Paul & Joe Grabuje silk dress
Matthew Williamson Kandi beaded kimono dress
Temperley London Starlight Evita silk kaftan

The timing of this Hef Style phenomenon couldn't be better, since the lovely Anna Faris (lounging poolside in July's Vanity Fair) will soon be appearing in The House Bunny.

So, will you be seeing this film or wearing a kimono anytime soon? CC hefinitely will!

I don't really like the Hef look at all it has to be said.
And the shoes.... ick!

Sam said...

haha that's pretty funny. I really don't like his shoes, but I love kimono-esque clothing.

Ariella said...

That's crazy. I don't like that robe look at all, and it bothers me that all those designers find inspiration in him.

Tricia said...

i know so many girls who are addicted to that show! i suspect i would be if i had cable, just to see hef shuffle round the manse. the robes are fabulous, great post.

Hila said...

Any post with a sprinkling of Chanel makes my heart pitter patter - I'm too scared of wearing my ruffly Chanel dress, for fear of ruining it :)
Thanks for visiting my little blog - and yes, dark glasses rock!
