Hotel News Briefs :: A Look at Gwen Stefani's Uniforms for W Hotel Bars

There's tons of hotel news flying around this week and we don't have time to give each and every story the love and attention it may deserve, so you will have to settle for some news briefs.

· L.A.M.B. Uniforms for W Hotels' Female Bar Staff: This is what they will look like. While not as boring as we first thought, those employees better have some great gams to wear such short dresses. [StyleList]

· Dial-up a Religious Text: Gone are the days of Gideon bibles in hotel nightstands. Spiritual menus are the newest religious amenity to hit hotels. [Canadian Press]

· Hilton Sells Pet Friendly Items: Not only is Hilton ok with you bringing your pets into their hotels, but they want you to buy Hilton-branded pet gear. [Hilton to Home]

· Aqua Hotels Says Aloha to Twitter: The Aqua Hotels group in Hawaii is now Twittering. [Twitter]

· CityCenter Slowing Down: So remember yesterday how the Aria Resort at CityCenter was topped off? Well, now there's a new report saying that corrective work being done on the Harmon Hotel is slowing down the overall construction. Yikes. [SF Chronicle]

Gwen Stefani Designing New Hotel Uniforms for W Hotels

OMG LAMB! Gwen Stefani is in as the next designer of W Hotels hotel employee uniforms. The Harajuku Girl fashionista, who has her own label L.A.M.B., will be creating the outfits for the W Hotels bar staff.

From Portfolio.com:

W and L.A.M.B. are expected to announce the deal in a few days. The uniforms--short dresses made of washable black jersey--will debut in December or early next year.

The Stefani/W Hotel partnership grew out of the luxury hotelier's sponsorship of a Fashion Week lounge where celebs can escape from the hoi polloi and the flashbulbs.

"Gwen Stefani was in our lounge last season, and through that relationship she's doing uniforms for the [Rande] Gerber bars located in W Hotels," said Jenni Benzaquen, director of public relations for W Hotels, who declined to discuss terms of the deal.

Wait a minute. "Short dresses made of washable black jersey?" That's it? That's what they are going to wear? That's what the eclectic creative funky Ms. Stefani is going to create? Boo.

W Hotels is going to have to step it up here. Have you seen the cute dresses the cocktail waitresses wear at Thompson Hotels? (They are Nicole Miller by the way.) We hate to say it but Gwen can do so much better.
