WHO WORE WHAT?.....People En Español's 50 Mas Bellos 2013 Red Carpet: Good, Ayyy Mija!

 People En Español 50 Mas Bellos (50 Most Beautiful) Issue with singer/actress Lucero on the cover

People En Español had their Party for the "50 Mas Bellos" Issue at the Marquee nightclub last night in NYC. The "50 Mas Bellos" People Magazine issue is the Spanish-speaking version of the magazine's "50 Most Beautiful" and highlights some of today’s most popular names in Hispanic entertainment.  This year’s cover features 6 leading telenovela actors and one talented singer/actress, the one-and-only Lucero.
A couple of years ago, I was invited to attend this event in NYC when I had designed a ensemble for the "Chica Orbit"--the Latina Orbit Gum Girl (Orbit Gum/Wrigley's was one of the main sponsors at the time). I had a blast at the event back then:

 But back to this year's 2013 Mas Bellos:

The magazine gathered all 7 stars under one roof for a shoot at a luxurious mansion in sunny Miami Beach. The leading men gracing the cover are David Zepeda, Sebastian Rulli, Eugenio Siller, Rafael Amaya, Erick Elias and Jason Canela (above photos). Now, let's get to the red carpet of last night's event. there was some "Bueno", some OK" and yes, my favorite, some "Ayyy Mija!" (and "Mijo!"):

Adamari Lopez: Puerto Rican actress and host of Telemundo's "Un Nuevo" show, Adamari Lopez wore this silver iridescent organza dress that fit way too oddly. The "strapless" section was too high, the sleeves cut her in a weird section of her arm (looked too Missy, or "abuela") and well, overall, it's not chic enough. I expect more form her. Llamame and my PR person will lend you one of my FAB new NV Nick Verreos dresses!

Nuestra Belleza Latina 2007 Alejandra Espinoza: Huuuuney!! Alejandra is a SEX Bomb in this shimmery fringed minin dress. I think she looks great and yes, UBER sexy. I also, can't help but see the  similarity between her and the current Miss Universe 2012 from the US, Olivia Culpo:

 How do you say DOPPELGANGER in Spanish???

Nuestra Belleza Latina 2010 Ana Patricia Gonzalez: Ana Patricia looks very appropriate and on-trend in this fitted body-con stretch satin printed dress with a boat-neck line. The center-parted hairstyle and blush-colored clutch/nude heels are perfect. This former queen knows how to NOT look HOOCHIE and perfectly Fab!

Candela Ferro: TV personality, model and host of Telemundo's "Al Rojo Vivo", Argentina-born Candela Ferro wore this snakeskin-printed bustier peplum top and shorts. I like this look on her! It's "Alexander McQueen Lite": Me Gusta! I also loved the pop of color in her blue pointed heels. Well done Candela and her stylist!

Chiquis Marin: Daughter of Mexican-American singer/icon Jenni Rivera, who died in a plane crash last year, Chiquis Marin, wore a black lace and satin gown for last night's event. Her makeup and hair looked beautiful, and although I do think it's appropriate for her to be in black, the gown style looks a bit too "Mother-of-the-Bride-Meets-Pageant-Queen circa 1996". A simple black sheath dress with some sparkle would have sufficed.

Danna Garcia: Colombian telenovela actress and model Danna Garcia wore this long printed gown at last night's party. The pose is all things CALIENTE. But, I'm not so sure of the dress. I think the long sleeves attached to the dress were maybe...too MUCHEEY. What do you chicos think?

Lili Estefan: TV personality Lili Estefan (and yes, cousin of La Gloria) wore this golden paillette sequin dress with gold belt to last night's People En Español's 50 Most Beautiful 2013 event. I think this was perfcet for the night and for her. Muy Bueno Lili!

Maite Perroni: Telenovela Actress (and former "RBD" member) Maite Perroni a BIG Latina star. But she will not hit any "Best Dressed" lists with this little sequined romper; she looks like she's every-other-girl at a Vegas nightclub standing in line to get in. Maite needs to do better. This is dos minutos from HOOCHIE.

Luz Garcia: Dominican Republic-born TV personality Luz Garcia this ivory applique and feathered/tulled dress at last night's event. It's VERY Figure Skating Costume. It's like Marchesa-on-a-budget. The red strapy heels don't even help.

 Oh, and I can't help but notice how much she reminds me of Kylie Minogue. Is that just me?

Nuestra Belleza Latina 2012 Vanessa De Roide: I like the unusual fabrication of this black strapless A-line dress. But...I think it should have been lined to just-above-the-hem. Other than that: Muy bien mi amor! 

Beauty Queen Minis: (L-R) Finalists from "Nuestra Belleza Latina" Marina Ruiz, Barbara Turbay, Viviana Ortiz, Marisela Demontecristo, and Audris Rijo attend People En Español's 50 Most Beautiful 2013 at Marquee on May 13, 2013 in New York City--Leave it to former Latina beauty queens to chose micro-mini shimmery dresses. This is so expected. So why not trying something different ladies? They look fine (my favorites are the second and third from the left) but still, they look like "Budweiser Beer Girls". They need to be more Fashion Model Chic.
Ayyy Mija: 

Marjorie de Sousa: Venezuela-born model and telenovela villain actress Marjorie de Souza thought she was going to her Prom or Quinceañera . What. Is This. Pouffy. Mess? On a good note: her hair and makeup are FABULOSO! Muy chevere!

Maripily Rivera: Latina Drag Queens Rejoice--Puerto Rican "model" (and I use the term very, very loosely!) Mariply, did not disappoint last night in that she looked CHONCHEE, HOOCHIE and very Tacky-licious: a bubblegum pink sequined wide-leg jumpsuit with too-plunging neckline and pink feathered clutch purse, a fake tan and a CAMELTOE. Ayyyy Mija!

Los Hombres/The Men:

Henry Santos: Record producer Henry Santos was one of the Best Dressed Hombres at last night's "Mas Bellos" party at Marquee. The "Rat Pack" style red jacket fit very well and looked modern and right for his slim build. The tie and pocket hankie added the right amount of "finishing touch". Also, his facial grooming was...perfecto!

Jason Canela: One of the magazine's "Mas Bellos" coverboy, telenovela Cuban-American actor Jason Canela wore this look above at last night's party. I think he could have looked better; more polished. All the right elements are there; the dinner jacket, the skinny tie, the slim black pants...maybe the shirt should have been a white dress shirt. and PS: keep the jacket buttoned. Por favor. Oh, and here's another "Evil Twin": Jason is sooo the Latino twin of ...

 Joe Jonas

Rafael Amaya: Mexican model, singer actor Rafael Amaya wore this gray plaid, tie, white dress shirt and pants look at last night's People En Español's 50 Most Beautiful 2013 at Marquee NYC. The only problem I have with this entire look is...those BROWN square toed shoes of his. Ayyy Mijo!

Sebastian Rulli: Argentine-Mexican actor/model (and "Mas Bellos" coverboy) Sebastian Rulli  decided to wear this satin-ized blue suit, pink dress shirt and multi-printed bow tie. Two words: No LIKEY. Sebastian is one of the most handsome boys and somehow he looks NOT handsome in this and worst of all, awkward. Oh, and what is with that THUMB ring? LOSE it!

Jaime Augusto Mayol: Puerto Rican model and TV host Jaime Augusto is THE SINGLE BEST DRESSED MALE of the night! Una Palabra: WOW. Muy bien Jaime Augusto. Muy Bien
