“45 Years Of Style” Exhibition by Valentino, Rome

Doesn’t get any better the more I look at it. Still very disappointed in Sarah Jessica Parker wearing Valentino Spring 2006 Couture.

Anne Hathaway looks amazing in this sequined black dress.

Not crazy about the dress, but there is no doubt Elle Macpherson looks amazing.

Effortless glamour. Love Uma Thurman.

I just don’t like this Valentino Spring 2006 dress on Natalia Vodianova. It is the mesh and the flowers that ruin it for me.

Eva Mendes is forever flawless.

Claudia Schiffer makes a welcome entrance in this white floor length Valentino Spring 2005 gown.

Claire Danes chose a Valentino Spring 2007 dress less showy than the rest, but she still looks amazing.

Surprisingly no split on Liz Hurley’s dress.

Don’t like the colour of Jennifer Hudson’s dress. Valentino has a closet of many colourful designs so I am disappointed this is the best Jennifer could do.

Valentino Fashion Show Arrivals, Rome

I am still in shock at the first ensemble. I think only back to back episodes of Sex and the City will cure my disappointment in Sarah Jessica Parker’s fashion statements this weekend.

I much prefer the first dress Anna wore. This dress is what I would expect Joan Collins or someone of that age to wear.

Elle should know that you should always wear heels to prevent having to stand on your tippy toes. Lesson learned I hope.

Simply Stunning. (The best out of the 3)

Even more stunning wearing Valentino Resort 2008. (The best out of the 3)

This is a fun and floaty dress, but sadly I feel it does not do Claudia any justice.

Meh….it’s cute but I just don’t care.

OK it is wrong to try too hard, but it is even worse to act like you just did not try at all.

Jennifer Hudson appears to be pimping this oversized bag. Did Andre Leon Tally make her carry it?

Gala Dinner, Rome

Redemption, minus the hair. Sarah is wearing Valentino Fall 2006 Couture. (The best out of the 3)

Gorgeous. Anna works this dress beautifully. (The best out of the 3)

I LOVE the dress and I am dribbling over the shoes. But the hair. I am hating the hair and the overly botoxed face, or is that just her facial expression?

This dress is a great colour for Uma.

Again stunning. This is a very sexy dress that fits Eva Mendes very well.

The dress is just OK, Claudia’s pose is putting me off.

Claire Danes’ floor length gown is beautiful, but I do wish she had worn something more colourful.

The dress is gorgeous but I am distracted by Sienna Miller’s eyebrows. I never knew they were so dark until today.

Much better effort from Liz Hurley.

I love the pink on Natalia Vodianova. Pink is always adorable on pregnant women.

I hate posting images with watermarks, but seeing as this is the only one I could find I had to make and exception, because if I had described how truly hideous this sight was, you would not have believed me.

Jennifer Hudson continues to let ‘blind man’ Andre Leon Tally dress her even after her Oscar disaster.

How tragic.

Apparently Cate Blanchett flew to Paris just for Giorgio Armani’s, Privé Fall 2007 Couture show. When you have someone as perfect as Cate going to your show, it is going to be good, and it was.

I LOVE these two dresses. I am not sure if I can picture Cate wearing either, but I can imagine Eva Green working the red carpet in them.

The front row of course included some of the best dressed women on the red carpet.

Cate, of course perfection personified. My girl just glows.

What a stylish couple, Camille Bella and Cate Blanchett. Camille is wearing Giorgio Armani Fall 2007

Rachel Zoe is no doubt looking out for some key pieces for her recent client Cameron Diaz.

Anne Hathaway wore this Giorgio Armani Fall RTW 2007 gorgeous silver dress to the show.

There was a dinner thrown by Giorgio Armani threw a dinner in which the forever elegant Camille Belle attended.

Anne Hathaway was also breathtakingly beautiful at the dinner.

Here are some of the great designs from the show

Is Liz Hurley getting married again?

She is a beautiful vision in white attending Elton John’s birthday party with her husband Arun Nayar. This dress is by…you guessed it….Versace and it doing exactly what it set out to do…..steal Elton’s thunder.

It’s raining, you have a long gown on, and ridiculous heels and then you go and trip. Guess who this is?

Oh the shame…and then Donatella she had to pose in a wet dress. The dress is beautiful, I love the colours and the geometric print detail. The dress is made by…well you know.

It was not a good night for designers. As one slips in the rain, the other, Donna Karen, wears a dress in which you can quite clearly see her black underwear in the sheer bottom half of her dress. Very embarrassing.

Speaking of see-through. Eve wore this tight black dress, that was so tight you could clearly see that she was not wearing a bra.

Liv Tyler is a beautiful woman and can wear anything…excluding this Marchesa dress. Now I know monochrome is all the rage, but I think people are having much difficulty making it work, or too creative when it is just not necessary. Like Jennifer Lopez’ dress yesterday this could be two dresses. I wish the designer just kept to the black design, as that was working for me.

John Legend looks great, but look at his dates legs. They are amazing. They must be about 40ins long. I thought mine were long at 34ins.

Speaking of long legs, Helena Christensen arrived in this flapper style, very short dress. These Supermodels do not age.

Where one model truimph’s another one fails. Natalia Vodianova just looks hideous. The hair, the dress, the lack of support…blah.

Anne looks fantastic in this Donna Karen dress. I wish it was not raining so we could get a proper look at the dresses. In this case we need to forget about the dress and focus on the shoes. Aren’t Anne’s shoes amazing? and very high?…what are they 5ins? Well done to her for not hitting the deck in those shoes.

I like that this is a long shot of Rachel Zoe, because close up she is very scary and I can concentrate on the dress, which is beautiful. Her companion Tamera Mellon’s dress on the other hand is a bit boring. Tamera normally pulls out all the stops, so I am surprised she went for such a safe boring dress.

Another beautiful woman who does not age, Michael Caine’s wife, Shakira Caine. What a fabulous dress she is wearing.

Doesn’t Ozzie scrub up well.

And last but least. The Birthday boy…man shocked guests by not wearing his normal flamboyant party gear for a sombre tuxedo. The words “Eltono Es Bueno” (Spanish for Elton is good) were embroidered on his jacket. Maybe he has gone more conservative now is 60.
