Red Carpet Commentatin'...


Last Sunday, while most of Hollywood was attending fabulous and fun Emmy Awards parties, I was workin' ! But don't feel bad for me, it was fun work--besides doing my LIVE Blogging of what the stars wore at the Emmy Awards Red Carpet here on my blog--

I also got the call to do CNN International and their "World Report" News Program to give my picks for the "Best" and the "Not So Much" from the red carpet.  I went to the CNN Los Angeles studios and headquarters in Hollywood and got ready for my segment.  


The anchor was John Vause--who reported from Atlanta--while I was in a small studio back in Hollywood. I had a great time injecting some of my "Fashion Knowledge" as well as fun commentary in the segment.

Some of my top picks included Sofia Vergara in the sequined Zuhair Murad gown as well as Heidi Klum in her chiffon double-slit Alexandre Vauthier dress.


And in my "Oh Dear" list was the beautiful and very talented Julianne Moore in the chartreuse Christian Dior Haute Couture Fall 2012 gown. I got a nice laugh from John Vause--the CNN International anchor--when I compared the gown to a Teletubby. It's a beautiful gown--and it is HANDMADE COUTURE--probably costing about $80,000 but it seemed a little garish against her perfect alabaster skin and gorgeous red hair.

Emmys Red Carpet: January Jones--always the Fashionista, wore a black HIGH-LOW gown from Zac Posen Resort 2013 (yes, it's a TREND kiddies--and I predicted as much on my NBC-LA segment yesterday morning with Ted Chen and Michelle Valles!) Would she be in your "Top" or "Not So Much"? Let me know.

Emmys Red Carpet: Miss Heidi Klum looked BEAUTIFUL in this sea-foam green silk chiffon gown from French fashion designer Alexandre Vauthier. She just wore one of his gowns to the Project Runway Season 10 NY Fashion Week Finale (you can see it HERE). The gown features a plunging neckline and a very high side slit. Vauthier came into the "Red Carpet Spotlight" because Lady Gaga has worn his designs and for a recent collection that has such HUGE shoulder pads that it would make Joan Collins blush! I loved this gown on Heidi because it was sooo "Miss Venezuela" and her hair was so "Old Hollywood Glamour". Elegant and Beauty Pageant Fab!

Emmys Red Carpet: "Revenge" actress Emily VanCamp wore a slate gray colored tulle gown from J Mendel Resort 2013. It's very Madame Grès old-school Couture in its details and ethereal shape. Usually I'm not a fan of this putty-looking color but the romantic silhouette of the dress overrides the not-so-exciting color. She gets a "B" from me...what do you guys think?
