Well, here we are having it again. A fashion faceoff with Gwyneth Paltrow where she has worn a Stella McCartney design on the red carpet before it was seen on someone else in a magazine later.
At the Fontainebleau Miami Beach Hotel Grand Opening last November Gwyneth Paltrow was looking radiant in an LWD from Stella McCartney’s Spring 2009 collection. The low-cut strapless mini dress sure turned some heads as it was an incredibly sexy look for the actress which she topped off with black platforms heels.
Fast forward to the Indian Cosmopolitan March 2009 issue and you will find the same gorgeous dress on newcomer actress Freida Pinto.
Is it me or are the fashion faceoffs getting harder from time to time? It’s so hard to choose a favorite because again I am loving the dress and the girls who wore it. I know you’ll think I’m boring now, but like last time I am leaning towards Gwyneth again because she made me love the black heels with the LWD which I normally would hate together, so that’s why my vote goes out to her (I also might be slightly obsessed)

Milla Jovovich was the first to wear this white embroidered Roberto Cavalli Spring 2009 mini dress to the Roberto Cavalli Opening Boutique Party recently. The ultra short LWD looked incredibly cute from the front, but the back of the dress was horrendous as it was very voluminous around the booty area making it look like a diaper. Milla accessorized with a small clutch and nude peep-toes which had a black patent bow on the front.
Elizabeth Banks didn’t have the guts to go for the diaper look, so she had her version of the Roberto Cavalli LWD modified (lengthier, no sleeves, v-neck, ruffled hemline). The actress wore her frock with black satin round-toe pumps and red nail polish.
If it wasn’t for the back, I would easily give this one to Milla, but I just can’t get over how awful her backside looked. That’s why I pick Elizabeth (though I’m really not fond of her choice of shoes here).

Remember when I featured a white silk dress as dress of the day a few weeks ago? Well, apparently I was not the only one falling for this dress. 4 celebrities has been already spotted wearing this LWD, 3 of which have worn it within 2 weeks.
Michelle Williams was the first to debut this gorgeous white Alexander Wang LWD from his Spring 2009 collection back in October 2008. Michelle wore the dress with a gold bangle and black ankle booties.
4 months later on Feruary 11th, 2009 model Tori Praver wore the same white dress to the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue Launch Party. Tori finished off her look with a pendant necklace, purple clutch and dark grey suede pumps.
Only one week later Marisa Tomei was the third to wear the Alexander Wang LWD to the Children Mending Hearts Gala on February 18th, 2009. The oscar nominated actress wore her dress underneath a black oversized blazer and a pair of to-die-for Alexander McQueen pumps (almost the same as I suggested in my post).
Lindsay Lohan was the last to wear the dress to a Mercedes-Benz Oscar Party in Beverly Hills on February 22nd, 2009. Lohan opted for Christian Louboutin Scarpe Platform Slingbacks to complete her look.
Michelle’s ankle booties were too heavy for the dress and Marisa’s oversized blazer hid too much of the beautiful dress, that’s why I prefer the dress on Tori and Lindsay. LiLo slightly pulls it off better because the dress hugs her curves and the black Louboutin peep-toes are the perfect compliment for the LWD.

I think I have an obsession with the name Alexander. Why, you ask? Because two of my absolute favorite designers are named like that. Of couse, we’re talking about Alexander McQueen and Alexander Wang.
Today, it’s all about Wang and his perfect creation of an LWD (=Little White Dress). He’s the best when it comes to mixing sexy with edgy chic. Wang’s color palette is mostly confined to black and white (and everything in between), but he really owns these colors, so I don’t mind.
This draped silk jersey dress from Wang’s Spring 2009 collection made me instantly swoon. Isn’t it the prettiest little thing of fabric you’ve ever seen? Me loves it.
The dress is currently up for pre-oder at Saks and I’m sure it will go like hot cakes. If you have 600 bucks to spare and there’s still room for a perfect LWD in your closet, grab your chance to infinite glee and buy it!

I would style it like Saks who copied the look from Wang’s runway presentation of the dress. Black chunky heels or a pair of gladiators would be a perfect fit. Finish it off with a black cropped blazer (sleeves rolled up) and you’re set.
