How to Wear a Lace Dress

  • DON’T wear a lace dress when it’s short, shows a lot of cleavage and has various cut-out panels. Lace alone is sexy enough, no need to go overboard. (→ Alyson Michalka).
  • DO wear lace in vivid colors and classic, timeless styles (→ Rachel Weisz).
  • DON’T let your dress be mistaken for your nightwear. There is such a thing as showing too much skin (→ Hayden Panettiere).
  • DO wear lace evening gowns in old Hollywood manner and feel fabulous! (→ Eva Herzigova)

Red Carpet Gold Star – Rachel Weisz in Valentino

Rachel Weisz wearing an emerald green Valentino Fall 2009 strapless chiffon dress

Rating: ★★★★★

Wowza! This is the first time since the beginning of this year’s Cannes Film Festival that I was really, really amazed. The gorgeous Rachel Weisz totally blew me away in her emerald green Valentino Fall 2009 ombré strapless dress which she wore to the Agora Premiere yesterday.

Rachel looked beyond perfection with her dark locks swept to one side while showing off her stunning earrings. Rachel’s look was finished off with a gold clutch and matching Christian Louboutin satin d’Orsay pumps. (♥ ♥ ♥)

Rachel more than rehabilitated herself from her Costume Institute Gala disaster earlier this year and I am more than thankful for this because now I don’t have to drop her from my fashion favorites list. And is it just me or does Rachel look a lot like Monica Bellucci here?

Costume Institute Gala 2009 – Worst Dressed

by Profashionelle on May 5, 2009 · 0 comments

Keep hitting the F5 on your keyboard from time to time as I will be updating this post throughout the night. Best Dressed are here.

Rachel Weisz

Rating: ★½☆☆☆

It pains me to put Rachel Weisz in here, but she got it all wrong. Her lilac strapless Vera Wang tulle gown totally washed her out, the make-up was waaaay too dark (OMG!@ berry lips) and why, oh why, is that yellow fabric peeking out from under the hem? Sorry, Rachel, you can do so much better.

Kate Beckinsale

Rating: ★½☆☆☆

I’ve had enough with Kate Beckinsale. Her Marchesa Fall 2009 navy tulle gown was, as you would expect from Kate, over the top and unnecessary. I have never liked this dress in the first place, but seeing it on Kate makes it even worse because she ALWAYS plays it safe and never moves out of her comfort zone.

Rihanna

Rating: ★★☆☆☆

Rihanna, please stop trying so hard. Don’t get me wrong, I love the runway look, but Rihanna makes it look so desperate for attention and so silly I can’t stand it.

I also find it always were amusing when at prestigious events such as the Costume Institute Gala where women are expected to wear beautiful, feminine princess dresses there are always 1 or 2 witty female individuals who opt out of this dress code. These women think they will come off so edgy and anti-establishment when they wear something super masculine like a suit or a tuxedo for example. GENIUS, girl! I bet no one else EVER had the same idea.

Leighton Meester

Imagine Leighton Meester‘s outfit without the leggings and you have a Best Dressed candidate. Leighton’s head-to-toe Louis Vuitton Fall 2009 look is a perfect example when too much becomes too bad. Such a shame!

Anne Hathaway

Rating: ★★½☆☆

Anne Hathaway channelled 60s Jackie O chic and me no likey. I love Anne just as anybody else, but this eggplant Marc Jacobs bubbly dress does absolutely nothing for her. Not digging the hair and shoes as well.

Emma Roberts

Rating: ★★½☆☆

I know a lot of you will not agree with me for putting Emma Roberts on the Worst Dressed list, but let me try to get my point across. I absolutely ADORE this red bubble-shaped Atelier Versace Spring 2009 mini dress. In fact it’s one of my favorite from that collection. But you can tell from a mile away that this dress was the wrong choice for Emma. It’s a dress for a SUPERMODEL! And even then I think it would be quite tricky to pull it off because of the shape. Emma looks weird and unsure of herself, the dress owns her. Not good.

Why did Donatella give it away for Emma? I mean, come on! I would have LOVED to see it on Gisele, Linda or Naomi. They would have done this dress justice.
