Renée Zellweger Wows Fashion Week
Sep 14, 2011 Featured, Gallery
Renée Zellweger graced the front row at Carolina Herrera’s Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week show Monday at Lincoln Center in New York. The Bridget Jones’s Diary star donned an all nude ensemble: a form-fitting dress with off-center ruching, matching Christian Louboutin pumps and a beige satchel accented with primary yellow straps and apple green handles.
Zellweger, who often wears Herrera on the red carpet, chatted with fellow actrees Olivia Munn moments before the show began and sat next to Delfina Blaquier, socialite and wife to polo player Ignacio “Nacho” Figueras. Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour and Stefano Tonchi, editor at W, also sat front row, on either side of a colorful rapper Nicki Minaj who wore a bubble-gum inspired knit top with neon green tights. It was certainly an eclectic contrast to Herrera’s spring 2012 collection of flowy, feminine silhouettes, fun geometric prints and neutral palette with pops of green, yellow and red accents.
Zellweger — whose ex Bradley Cooper is rumored to be dating a newly-separated Jennifer Lopez — will be reprising her acclaimed Bridget Jones role in a third series for the franchise, although a date has not been set for production.

Renée Zellweger & Sandra Bullock Spend Girl Time
Is Renée Zellweger turning to Sandra Bullock for comfort after her split from Bradley Cooper?
Zellweger, who has been spending some post-breakup time in New York, visited Bullock over the weekend at Sandra’s downtown Manhattan apartment, a source confirms to PEOPLE.
There’s no word on what the two stars discussed, but both Zellweger, 41, and Bullock, 46, share a Texas connection: The former is a native of the Lone Star State, while Bullock has a home in Austin. And both women have been through high-profile breakups.
As for how Zellweger is doing since her split from Cooper, a source close to the actress tells PEOPLE, “She’s really good. She’s going out with friends and she’s moving on.”
The source adds that the actress is ready to focus again on her career. “She hasn’t been working because she wanted to really put time and energy into the relationship,” says the source, “and now she’s going back to work.”
Bullock is in the Big Apple shooting her upcoming film with Tom Hanks, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close.

Renee Zellweger the sexy singleton pulls a slinky pose out of her bag of tricks
Newly single Renee Zellweger certainly isn’t moping at home with a carton of ice-cream.
The 41-year-old actress appears in a sultry new advertisement after designing a handbag to raise money for charity.
It shows the Cold Mountain star in a cream and blue sweater with the tote over her shoulder as she crouched on the ground.
Zellweger collaborated with Tommy Hilfiger to design the accessory to raise money and awareness for the Breast Health Institute.
In another image, the Bridget Jones actress looks ethereal in a cream flowing dress. She sits on a chair cross-legged and dangles the bag against her bare feet.
The star has been in Milan, Italy, to help promote the charity and has looked the best she has looked in a long time in her choice of outfits including a red trench coat and a green strapless mini dress.
The light brown suede bag is made from natural, vegetable-tanned leather. It will retail for $425 with $140 from each sale going to the Fund For Living campaign.
The group is formed by an association to support women battling cancer and to also help cover their day to day expenses.
Zellweger said about the cause: ‘This is one of the best things about this initiative, and I love that Tommy Hilfiger has supported it for five years.’
‘It’s very real, very direct, helping women in their personal struggles, buying a wig or allowing them to hire a babysitter or to take a taxi when they don’t feel like they can ride the bus’, she added.
The cause is close to Renee’s heart because her grandmother died in 1969 after battling cancer.
She also had a cancer scare herself in 1996 and admitted that her reasons for support Breast Health Institute were extremely ‘selfish’ because friends and family members have suffered with the illness.
Having the opportunity to design her own bag and given Renee a taste of maybe becoming more creatively involved in fashion.
But when asked if she would ever release her own fragrance, like so many other celebrities, Zellweger said: ‘I haven’t really thought about it.’
However, she shared: ‘Occasionally, I have my dream shoe line in my head.’
The newly single star seems to be handling her break up well and has paraded round Italy like she has not a care in the world.
Renee split with her boyfriend Bradley Cooper last month after nearly two years together.
But she was all smiles as she strolled through JFK airport in New York earlier today having arrived back from Italy.
She was very dressed down and a world away from the glamorous past few days.
Deciding to stay comfortable in travel attire, she wore a blue patterned skirt, blue sweater and flat ballerina shoes.
Showing how down to earth she is, Renee pulled along to heavy suicases while toting another large bag and her new brown handbag.

Renee Zellweger Is Tommy Hilfiger’s New Gal
Renee Zellweger is the newest face of Tommy Hilfiger’s charity initiative in partnership with Breast Health International. Starting in 2007, Hilfiger has designed a special bag each year with proceeds going towards Fund for Living, a charity which gives financial support to women fighting breast cancer.
Renee says her involvement in the initiative is actually very selfishly motivated, influenced in most part by friends and family members who have gone through cancer treatment. But whatever the reason, you still have to applaud her for participating. Renee loves the idea behind the project and says:
This is one of my favorite things about this initiative, and I love that Tommy Hilfiger has supported it for five years. It’s very real, very direct, helping women in their personal struggles, buying a wig or allowing them to hire a babysitter or to take a taxi when they don’t feel like they can ride the bus.
This year, the bag designed is a simple tan suede tote with golden hardware. It retails for $299 and $100 of each purchase will go towards the initiative. The bags hit stores globally in mid-April.
