WHO WORE WHAT?.....Vanity Fair Oscar Party 2015: Trend Alert! See Through Dresses

Trend Alert: See Through Ladies 

Besides Gigi Hadid and Irina Shayk, several other ladies wore see-through dresses to the 2015 Vanity Fair Oscar Party and here we have...

Rita Ora in a black matte jersey and black see-through chiffon gown from Donna Karan Atelier. Donna Karan Atelier is the more "Custom/Couture" arm of the brand, only for stars and for the red carpet. In other words, don't bother finding any of these dresses at any Donna Karan store, online, or wherever.

Rita Ora in Donna Karan Atelier--2015 Vanity Fair Oscar Party--As you can see from above, you've got to be BOLD, BRAVE and be cool with going underwear-less to pull off this style of a gown. I like the front but I admit that the back is TASTELESS and too Tacky-Hoochie (since when is seeing half your butt chic??!!)

Lily Collins in Zuhair Murad Spring 2015 Ready To Wear--2015 Vanity Fair Oscar Party--Lily does See Through much better (and tasteful) than Rita did. Here, Collins wears a black sequined gown from Zuhair Murad (yes, him AGAIN!! I told you his atelier and press department were busy!) Spring 2015 Ready-to-Wear. I love the hint of tuxedo with the satin lapels. It's modern, a bit Victor/Victoria and still glam enough for a Vanity Fair Oscar Party.

Malin Akerman--2015 Vanity Fair Oscar Party--Malin also did the See-Through trend wearing this black lace sequined gown with a plunging neckline and under-bodysuit.

Kelly Lynch--2015 Vanity Fair Oscar Party--Kelly Lynch combined satin and see-through in the style she wore at the 2015 Vanity Fair Oscar Party seen above. The style is a bit of a mish-mash; there is a bubble mini skirt under an over dress in panel like shapes, there's pockets, then there's a spiderweb-like lace top...and a black bikini bra top under it all. Not sure about it all.

What do you guys think?
Who did See Through Trend better?

WHO WORE WHAT?.....71st Annual Golden Globe Awards: Trend Alert! Hi-Lo Gowns

WHO WORE WHAT?.....71st Annual Golden Globe Awards: Trend Alert! Hi-Lo Gowns

Zooey Deschanel in Oscar de la Renta; Caitlin Fitzgerald in Emilia Wickstead; Sandra Bullock in Prabal Gurung; Michelle Dockery in Oscar de la Renta

2014 Golden Globe awards Red Carpet Trend Alert: Hi-Lo Gowns--
Hi-Lo gowns have been popular lately--both on the runway and the Red Carpet. Hi-Lo means higher in the front and low-to the floor, or beyond--in the back. Oscar de la Renta is a big proponent of this silhouette. It's a fabulous style especially since it can showcase the gorgeous shoes that sometimes get lost in a floor-length gown. And as a note: this is one of the ONLY ways shoes should be seen...

 Drew Barrymore in Monique Lhuillier; Elizabeth Moss in J. Mendel; Aubrey Plaza in Oscar de la Renta

My favorite gown in this Hi-Lo group are Michelle Dockery's Oscar de la Renta strapless sequined dress and I also thought Elizabeth Moss' fitted and fishtail Hi-Lo was stunning.
Which Hi-Lo gown did you like?

2014 Golden Globe Awards Red Carpet Trend Alert: Red Dresses--
Red dresses were another big (color) trend at last night's 2014 Golden Globe Awards. Red dresses ON the red carpet have been quite the trend for the last few seasons so it's no surprise the color is going to continue to be big for the 2014 Awards Season. My Top Favorite gown here is the red off-the-shoulder caped column Ralph Lauren gown on Lupita Nyong'o. HANDS DOWN. The Best. And I would say the "1st Runner-up" would be Amy Adams in Valentino Couture.

Which Red Dress is your favorite?

2014 Golden Globe Awards Red Carpet Trend Alert: Black and White--
Last night we saw lots of black and white gowns on the red carpet. Above are eight examples of those such gowns. They ranged from "Sporty" (Julia Roberts in Dolce & Gabbana) to All-out Glam (Jenna Dewan-Tatum in Roberto Cavalli).

Zosia Mamet in Reem Acra; Heidi Klum in Marchesa; Julia Roberts in Dolce & Gabbana; Jenna Dewan-Tatum in Roberto Cavalli

My two top faves of this black-and-white group are Allison Williams in feathered Alexander McQueen and Jenna Dewan-Tatum in Roberto Cavalli). The Fashion Fail here is Roberts. The strapless gown-over-a-white-dress shirt look is well, so 1998 Sharon Stone-at-the-Academy Awards-Been There/Done That and it also seems so blah and uncreative to be honest, especially when put along the other Glam Girls.

What do you guys think? Which one was your FAVE Black-and-White gal? And Not-So-Fave?

WHO WORE WHAT?.....70th Annual Golden Globes: Trend Alert Peplum Dresses

WHO WORE WHAT?.....70th Annual Golden Globes: Trend Alert Peplum Dresses


Perfect Peplum

Anne Hathaway in Chanel Haute Couture: Another big trend at the 70th Golden Globe Awards was the Peplum Dress. This has been a trend that we have been seeing on the runways for the last few seasons, so it was no surprise to see it on the Red Carpet tonight.

Anne Hathaway wore a beautiful white brocade Chanel Haute Couture Gown with what I like to call a "petite peplum". The "cut" of the dress is exquisite and a shape that the House of Chanel has mastered.

Rosario Dawson in Antonio Berardi: While I love the seafoam blue color on Rosario, the dress fit her a bit odd. I love the layered and intricately seamed peplum, but the bust section was just a bit off. I would have loved to have seen this dress with a deeper cowl to open up the neckline.

Sarah Hyland in Max Azria Atelier: Sarah wears a beautifully fitting (it better be if it is custom!) Max Azria Gown in silk Crepe and Satin with a draped and fan pleated peplum. She looks very striking and grown-up, which is probably something she is "going for" after playing a teen on a hit show for several years.  I love the dress...my one complaint would be that I wish it were another color besides black.

What do you think?!

WHO WORE WHAT?.....70th Annual Golden Globes: Trend Alert Red


Ladies in Red

 
Marion Cotillard in Christian Dior Haute Couture

Another big trend of the night was the color RED! It is always a popular color but some people worry about wearing Red on the Red Carpet. It is usually about getting the right tone of red that suits you and not being too matchy matchy on the carpet.

Marion's dress is sure to be a controversial choice, but I love it! She is an actress that can push the "Fashion Boundaries" and we need those ladies on the Red Carpet! They can't ALL be perfect mermaid shaped gowns! I love the asymmetrical hem and the overdrape that emphasizes the belted waist.

 Jennifer Garner in Vivienne Westwood: This is quite a conservative style for Vivienne Westwood and I think it looks fantastic on Jennifer. I especially love the rich, deep red color and the nipped in waist.


Claire Danes in Custom Versace: I had predicted that Claire Danes would wear a softer, pastel color; well, she proved me wrong and showed up in this sexy custom Versace in Fire Engine Red colored gown! Claire has beautiful broad shoulders and the Versace Team did a great job in highlighting that great asset.  She looks FAB in this dress...especially after giving birth only 1 month ago! Crazy!

Zooey Deschanel in Oscar de la Renta: Zooey looked beautiful in this red Taffeta strapless ballgown (another big trend of the night!). She looked very "Zooey" which is just the way she likes it. Love the oversized pearls which is a perfect "Zooey" touch.

Jennifer Lawrence in Christian Dior Haute Couture: I've already discussed Jennifer HERE. But, once again, I think she looks great. The breast detailing seems to be quite a controversial topic on twitter but I love it. It is very classic 1950's Dior...with a RED twist!!
