February 14, 2008 - 39th Annual NAACP Image Awards 2008, Los Angeles

America Ferrera

Ugly Betty star America Ferrera was stunning wearing not Monique Lhuillier for once. The teal one-shouldered chiffon dress she sported at the event was from the Marchesa Spring 2008 collection. She teamed her dressed with a pair of gorgeous gold sandals.

America was by far the best dressed at this event. She’s such a beauty.

Eva Pigford

Eva Pigford opted for sexy wearing a backless silver sequin dress with dramatic hair.

Jordin Sparks

Jordin Sparks was looking OK in this chocolate brown strapless floor-length dress. Boring, but very flattering for Jordin’s womanly curves.

Kate Walsh

Kate Walsh was making an extraordinary elegant appearance at this year’s NAACP Image Awards wearing an embellished one-shouldered floor-length dress. Classy!

Meagan Good

Meagan Good attended the event wearing a body-hugging bandage dress from the infamous fashion house Hervé Léger. She teamed her dress with a pair of silver strappy sandals and a red rose in her hand.

It might be Hervé Léger, but I’m just not loving this on Meagan. She should’ve put on some Spanx in order to pull off such a revealing dress. Plus, this big gap between her boobs is everything but a pleasure to look at. Did she really think this is sexy?

The only thing I like about Meagan here, is her hair. Oh, and her shoes, too.

Robin Givens

What I love on Robin Givens here, is her amazing white strapless tulle dress with the lovely embellishments on the hemline.

What I hate is Robin’s make-up, the hair and the faces she makes when posing for the camera. Weird.

If it was not for the make-up & hair, America Ferrera definitely would’ve had to share the crown as best dressed with Robin.

Vanessa Williams

For a 44-year-old, singer-turned-actress Vanessa Williams still cleans up very nice. She attended the 39th Annual NAACP Image Awards in a beautiful ivory floor-length gown by Zuhair Murad. The downside of this dress is that it has only one strap, which is the only thing I don’t like about it.

Alicia Keys

Songstress Alicia Keys not only sported a nice summery strapless floor-length gown, but also some very unflattering deodorant stains under her arms. I can’t believe this could happen to a celebrity? Didn’t she check a mirror before starting to walk the red carpet? Must’ve been an embarassing moment for the soul diva when she found out about the stains.

Ashanti

Ashanti often doesn’t seem to get it right when it comes to dressing appropriate for red carpet occasions, so imagine my delight when I saw her wearing this amazing pink belted black satin dress.

This is the perfect kind of dress for Ashanti & it works wonders on her. She couldn’t have done any better. Thumbs up for wearing the pink highlights on all the right places (belt, lips, shoes and jewelry). Gorgeous.

Ashlee Simpson

Ashlee Simpson arrived at the Clive Davis Pre-Grammy Party with new red hair and a somewhat tiring knitted gold turtle neck dress. She teamed the dress with nude pumps and a fire-red clutch.

Carrie Underwood

Carrie Underwood was rocking the monochrome trend in this stunning Marchesa dress.

♥ Loving the hair, the earrings & the shoes ♥

Dita von Teese

Dita von Teese was the epitome of glamour in a white embellished ensemble from the Christian Dior Spring 2008 collection. Stunning indeed and a little bit over the top for this kind of event, but that’s Dita. Never been a fan of understatement.

Dita finished off her look with matching white pumps. Her red lips and the black retro curls perfectly contrast with her white outfit.

Lindsay Lohan

Wild child Lindsay Lohan showed off her new darker do in a flirty turquoise one-shoulder bubble dress and gold peep-toes. The dress itself is a bit on the boring side, but the color is stunning on LiLo, especially with the dark brown hair.

Lindsay should pay more attention to what metallics she wears with her outfit next time. She chose to wear gold peep-toe shoes, but at the same time accessorized her dress with silver jewelry. I’m not a fan of mixing metals. A total No-Go for me.

Don’t even get me started on the spray tan…

Rihanna is known for taking fashion risks. Unfortunately for her, this printed floor-length gown did not pay off. I hope she does better with her Grammys dress.

Marchesa Coral Silk Chiffon Gown
(NET-A-PORTER)

Time to kick off a new category here on this blog - it’s called “Dress of the Day“. From now on you’ll find your daily dose of dress perfection covered here on Profashionelle. And we start off with this beautiful silk chiffon gown by Marchesa from the Resort 2008 collection.

If I was ever to walk a red carpet, Marchesa would definitely be among my TOP 5 of considered designers (Christian Dior, Valentino, Elie Saab and Versace would be the others). And this beautiful Grecian-inspired floor-length evening gown is one of the reasons why. Love the empire waist, the gold embroidered bodice, the crossover straps, everything. I prefer the white version, but the coral one is edgier. Which color do you like best?

Definitely a red carpet worthy piece of fabric. Cash out $4.785 and call it yours. Pocket change.

The eccentric Chloë Sevigny, famous for taking fashion risks and wearing her Grandpa’s glasses, first wore this white playful Lanvin t-shirt featuring a face and a black bow when she went to support Alber Elbaz at the Couture Council Award of Fashion event back in 2007. Chloë paired her white tank with a black layered skirt, a gorgeous white clutch and a pair of black ankle boots. Her pink lips were the icing on the cake.

Diane Kruger, also known for risqué fashion, chose the same white Lanvin top for a photocall at the 58th Annual Berlinale International Film Festival on Thursday. Diane opted for a clean look and teamed the shirt with black trousers, black tights and black patent Mary Janes.

Seems like Diane is following other people’s fashion lately. This is the second time she wore something after someone else did wear it before in a short time.

I much prefer Chloë’s look, it’s more thought through and looks more put together though still being on the risky side (which I admire Chloë for). Diane’s ensemble isn’t that bad as well, but the ill-fitting trousers completely ruined it for me.

Where to buy it?

Get this cute white Lanvin print shirt for $290 at Browns.
