chinese elegance wins
this reminded me of director Wong Kar Wai's "The Hand", which is a part of a short stories series called "Eros". it was beautifully filmed. model Shu Pei is one of my faves on the runway, and you can see why as she poses for Vera Wang's bridal ready-to-wear. there's a bit of "asian fever" going around in high fashion, but i think it's a little more than a petty fever. it's a movement. maybe the exposure of graceful asian models without "the eyelids" (haha) will change the definition of beauty across Asia major. *sigh. but one can only hope...
2010 Costume Institute Gala
my favorite picks are...
Jessica Szohr in Atelier Versace
(no Ed Westwick by her side. hmmm... her skin is glowing so beautifully though!)
Nichole Richie in Marc Jacobs
Joshua Jackson in Calvin Klein
(why does he look so good?! he's come a long way since his days on 'Dawson's Creek' and 'Mighty Ducks'. lucky girl, that Diane Kruger...)
Gwen Stefani in L.A.M.B. with Gavin Rossdale
(i swear she looks good at any age. there is a reason why she's been my hero since the third grade and still is... her hubby, Gavin, is gorgeous... as always.)
Brooke Shields in Michael Kors with Michael Kors
(yet another woman who looks good at any age. her brows are still worth dying for!)
Sienna Miller in Emilio Pucci
(one of my major style icons! she looks so adorable and sexy in this dress, all at the same time. no one else can do what she does. those shoes are killer... must find out who they're by.)
Vera Wang in Vera Wang with Mila Kunis
(though Mila's dress is a little distracting, Vera Wang looks stunning.)
Blake Lively in Marchesa
(so age appropriate, and so fresh. love it.)
Vera Wang Fall 2010 RTW
This is my favorite collection for the season thus far. This is a very different assembly for Vera Wang, and I love where it's going. The pants and jackets (items she's not known to make) are tailored beautifully, and she stamped her trademark on top of it all: luxurious and ultra-femme. The paper-bag-waist tuxedo pants (the last look posted) worn with the top trimmed with organza corsages on its shoulders, and with the opera gloves is the perfect alternative to a cocktail dress. One of my favorite pieces is the tuxedo jacket with its sleeves cut-off, and the pockets adorned with sequins. There are so many ways I could possibly wear it and the ideas drive me wild.
