At the 60th Primetime Emmy Awards last year, House actress Jennifer Morrison arrived on the red carpet wearing a beautiful gold lamé asymmetrical gown from Marchesa’s Spring 2009 collection. The dress had a train and was beautifully draped on the hip and shoulder. Jennifer accessorized her golden look with a matching clutch, gold peep-toes and an adorable serpent cuff. What also captivated me about Jennifer’s look was her flawless hair and makeup. Jennifer was literally glowing and her hair had this beautiful shiny effect. LOVE!
Georgina Chapman chose to wear the same Grecian inspired goddess dress when she attended the amfAR Cinema Against AIDS 2009 Gala during this year’s Cannes Film Festival. Georgina completed her look similar to Jennifer with a gold clutch, gold bangles and a pair of platinum gold Christian Louboutin Galaxy Pass heels
($1.195).
Both look stunning and even though I adore Georgina’s killer Louboutins, I think I’ll go with Jennifer on this one because of her super glowy makeup. Whom do you prefer in that dress?

Miley Cyrus was the first to strut the red carpet in this Marchesa Spring 2009 strapless dress at the 2008 American Music Awards back in November 2008. The beautiful dress had a black chiffon overlay which was draped half over the gold embellished bodice and skirt. Miley completed her glamourous look with black satin Giuseppe Zanotti pumps and hair tied up in a loose updo.
If you’re familiar with Georgina Chapman then you’re probably not surprised to see her re-wearing that dress as she is continously promoting her brand by donning her own designs to every major red carpet event such as the Quintessentially Party For “Nowhere Boy” during the Cannes Film Festival which she and her husband Harvey Weinstein attended yesterday. Georgina wore a lengthened version of the strapless dress and accessorized with a Chanel bag and black t-bar pumps.
I’m surprised to find myself preferring Miley in this dress. Georgina’s version lost half of its appeal because of the modified length and I also like that Miley styled her hair into an updo. The bare neckline gave her a more defined silhouette. Who’s side are you on?

At the LA Premiere of RocknRolla in October 2008, Thandie Newton wore a beautiful silvery strapless tulle mini dress from Marchesa’s Spring 2009 collection looking absolutely outstanding. The English actress completed her look with a silver Chanel clutch, black pointy heels and sultry smokey eyes.
Yesterday at the Launch of Topshop/Topman Dinner in New York, model and designer Georgina Chapman flaunted the same modified tulle dress as Thandie which she wore under a black sequinned Marchesa Fall 2008 jacket. Georgina accessorized with a silver necklace, a black clutch and black square-toe pumps.
This is a tough decision. Both women look flawless and carry the dress well. I love it on both of them, but I like the dress slightly more on Thandie as I prefer her accessories and the smokey eyes which are a stark contrast against the romantic nature of the dress. A risk that paid off for Thandie. What do you think?

Anne Hathaway was the first to wear this exquisite strapless dress from Marchesa’s Spring 2009 collection when she attended the 46th New York Film Festival back in September 2008. The monochrome dress had 2 thigh high side slits and and floral embroideries on the entire gown. Anne’s look was perfected with an elegant updo and standout drop earrings.
Georgina Chapman who hardly wears anything else than her own brand for red carpet events, decided to up the ante and customized the same gown with gold embroideries to make sure she stands out in a sea of evening gowns at the 2009 Vanity Fair Oscar Party. Georgina finished her look with black satin pumps and a matching black clutch.
Even though Georgina’s version looks more lush than Anne’s, I do prefer it on Anne. The embroideries on her dress are not so much in-your-face and Anne’s updo allows to see her beautiful neckline. 1:0 for Anne. What do you think? Is it Anne or Georgina for you?

Actress Kerry Washington was the first to wear this heavily gold embroidered Marchesa Spring 2009 mini dress to the BET Hip Hop Awards on October 18, 2008. She wore the cap sleeved cocktail dress with matching strappy sandals and a beautiful Louis Vuitton clutch.
Georgina Chapman, co-founder of Marchesa, was wearing the same mini dress to the US Presidential Election Party on November 04, 2008 hosted by her husband Harvey Weinstein. Unfortunately, you can’t see how she accessorized except for the chandelier earrings.
Both women look absolutely stunning, but I tend to give this one to Kerry Washington as she decided to go sans jewelry which is IMO the right choice because the dress is busy on its own, so adding jewelry here would’ve been too much.
But what do you think? Is it Kerry or Georgina for you?

This is the dress as it appeared on the “runway”. I think no matter your choice, we will all agree that both women wear it so much better than the model below.
