If you made this as a commercial venture you are probably infringing on these celebrities personality rights.
The companies and freelance photographers who focus on the celebrity market are some of the most aggressive you'll encounter in protecting their rights.

Perhaps this idea will work better for Men as they probably need a bit more help in piecing together a look (more often than not) ;)
Funnily enough, asos.com, which is something like the third biggest UK Internet company now (according to some slightly dubious stats that were posted here a month or two ago), actually started out with a similar premise: they don't mention it much these days (a tiny link in the footer which leads to a page looking like it needs a bit of love [0]), but the acronym originally stood for "As Seen On Screen", and you could buy near-replicas of clothing worn by stars both on and off the screen. Back when I was young and impressionable, I bought a leather jacket much like one of the ones Brad Pitt wore in "Fight Club".

The feedback was great and people 'loved' the site but ultimately we couldn't get to a scale where there was enough traffic and clicks to make it worthwhile. Engagement isn't fantastic since it's more of a quick browse and if I like something click away from site. Perhaps this idea will work better for Men as they probably need a…
I like the concept - most of these kinds of posts are done completely ad hoc and are distributed across all of the various men's fashion forums - but the URL made me think this was going to be a breakdown of famous outfits worn by characters in TV and movies (e.g. The Driver's outfit from Drive). Also, most of the outfits you picked are pretty stale. Go for one that are more exciting or with pieces that would be more…
Thanks for the feedback. I definitely appreciate it. The reason for these outfits being more "normal" is because our goal is for most people to actually be able to wear these outfits. But we do plan on doing some crazy outfits in the future. Thanks again!
Consider using Star or Celebrity instead and Duds or Getups.
If I were doing this site I'd probably call it "Stylebiter" it's Catchy and could apply to more than just celebrities.
Doh. it's taken: http://stylebiter.com/
