Katherine Heigl’s Gray Dress Vs. Vanessa Hudgens’ Yellow Dress

Don’t forget that green emerald dress worn by Channing Tatum’s wife, Jenna Dewan, at the Golden Globes this year? I liked it – it was daringly diverse and who doesn’t adore a princess gown with lengthy train? It appears that (a single) Jenna Dewan, Katherine Heigl and Vanessa Hudgens share the same stylist or (two) each Katherine and Vanessa really like a very good princess gown with long train (wink). Either way, all 3 were wearing quite related dresses from the exact same designer – Maria Lucia Hohan.

The White Dresses From 2012 SAG Awards Red Carpet

Even though you could hear differently, the true dominant color on the 2012 SAG Awards Red Carpet was white. White – ish, neutral. As the 2012 edition of the Golden Globes showed us already, the Red Carpet tendency is towards neutral and white. And last night’s ceremony was no exception to the trends.

If I’d had to choose a preferred, I’d absolutely go for Viola Davis in Marchesa. And Zoe Saldana in Givenchy Haute Couture. Both of them took my breath away. There was even an awkward sartorial moment with Julianna Margulies and Katrina Bowden. The dresses they were wearing had been heartbreakingly related. Only they had been various. In particulars and label (Julianna was wearing Calvin Klein although Katrina Bowden was wearing Amsale.

The Black Dresses From 2012 SAG Awards Red Carpet

Leading the black dresses pack was, undoubtedly, Emma Stone. It’s a subjective opinion, biensur, my fashperspective getting totally blindsided by Emma herself – I genuinely like her and particularly by the reality that she’s wearing Alexander McQueen. However, I can’t deny that Angelina Jolie comes in a dangerously close second position. But then again, she’s always amongst my favorites on any Red Carpet. And that’s surely not only because of her outfits.

However, considering that the black dresses were so nicely represented on the 2012 SAG Awards Red Carpet, I had to pick a very best from the rest, aside from my already mentioned weaknesses. And here I go, once again selecting two dresses: Stacy Keibler’s black lace Marchesa and Jayma Mays black sequined Reem Acra. (hit the jump to see the rest of the black dresses from the 2012 SAG Awards Red Carpet check out the gallery here)

If Elie Saab‘s latest couture collection is something to go by, we can expect to see a thing other than the predictable black and nude on the red carpet at the Oscars. The Lebanese designer – who’s dressed dozens of winners, nominees and presenters in the last couple of years – showed a dreamy couture collection bursting with attainable Oscar frocks. Our money’s on one particular of the amazing mint green numbers, snapped backstage during the show, possibly worn by ‘The Artist’ star Berenice Bejo, who sat in the front row for the show.

There were also peach, cream and a profusion of pale pink gowns, producing up an ice-cream hued collection of heavily embellished and textured dresses and gowns. Though there were some structured suits and shorter dresses, Saab is not a designer you look to for daywear. He’s all about romantic glamour and severe attention to detail, this season through a generous use of tiny crystals on soft, fairytale fabrics fit for a princess.

Christian Siriano designing wedding dresses for Nordstrom

Christian Siriano Bridal Christian Siriano designing wedding dresses for Nordstrom

The most surprising thing about the news that Christian Siriano designing a line of wedding dresses is that he wasn’t currently undertaking bridal!

The Project Runway alum tweeted: “Excited to announce we are undertaking an exclusive bridal collection for Nordstrom. Here’s the extremely initial one particular, more to come!” with the above picture. This seems like a natural pairing taking into consideration Siriano’s begin as a freelance bridal designer in New York, as properly has his reputation for gorgeous, daring formalwear.

The dress he released a photo of is fairly fairly, but I’m hoping there some more dramatic dresses up the designer’s sleeve. Possibly something much more along the lines of these celebrity wedding dresses he sketched for Brides in 2009.

Victoria%20Beckham%20sister%20line%20SS12%20preview%20dresses Victoria Beckham teases us with a short film for sister line

There is no doubt about it, Victoria Beckham does not know when to cease. On best of operating a household full of little young children, the former Spice Girl continues to pump out the fashion lines one after another. Her affinity with cute tiny dresses has led her to launch a sister line (considerably loved by Katy Perry and Michelle Williams) which she is celebrating with a brief viral film.

This is not the very first time we have noticed her do this. Victoria has worked with illustrator and film-maker, Quentin Jones just before on a film to promote her new Spring/Summer 2012 denim collection. Speaking of her second collaboration with Jones, she says she was “great to operate with again! She’s cool, has an intriguing vision and her style fits so perfectly with the Victoria line!”

It seems Jones also has some lovely issues to say about working with Victoria, describing her as a “fairly cool girl.” Beckham tends to make a cameo look in the film, which Jones says was an “honour” to be “directing a person like Victoria” at this stage in her career. I can’t wait to see that! In the meantime check out a teaser clip of the film beneath…
