Westminster Abbey is being turned into an indoor garden — complete with a canopy of eight 20-foot-tall trees — for Friday's royal wedding. Kate Middleton is working with garden artistic director Shane Connolly to re-create the feel of an English country garden. Eco-minded, she insisted that the trees be seasonal and replantable.

Olivier Rousteing is taking over as creative director at Balmain, which announced just three weeks ago that it was parting ways with Christophe Decarnin. Rousteing joined the atelier in 2009 and had been in charge of the women's wear studio. [Telegraph]
