Florence Welch In Louis Vuitton – The Royal Academy Of Arts Summer Exhibition 2013

Florence Welch In Louis Vuitton - The Royal Academy Of Arts Summer Exhibition 2013

Florence Welch attended Wednesday’s preview party for The Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition 2013, hosted at The Royal Academy of Arts in London, England.

The songstress looked to the Louis Vuitton Fall 2013 runway for this velvet, floral-embellished dress in a melancholic taupe colour with mauve accents.

Like much of designer Marc Jacobs’ collection, this loose, lace-trimmed silhouette also evoked the boudoir. It could almost have passed for the most fancy dressing gown ever.

She accessorized with chunky, blush-toned Louis Vuitton sandals and got in some extra face-time with her Anya Hindmarch ‘Duchess Lady’ clutch, whilst her dagger-shaped manicure and stacks of rings on nearly every finger injected some edgy personality into the look.

The flame-haired singer crowned the ensemble with a return to the braided updo trend that added more romantic flair.

03.06.13 Best Dressed Of The Week

Best Dressed Of The Week – Angelina Jolie In Saint Laurent & Florence Welch In Gucci

Best Dressed Of The Week - Angelina Jolie In Saint Laurent & Florence Welch In Gucci

Angelina Jolie in Saint Laurent was your best dressed this week.

While some might say this was a sympathy vote, I would strongly disagree, saying that while this is yet another black dress from Ange, it was a sexy, statement-making look and one of her finest all-black looks to date.

I opted for Florence Welch in Gucci. Yes, the look might feel a tad familiar; however, I was captivated by the colour, her stage presence and the billowing effect of the cape, plus she was by far the best dressed at the ‘Chime For Change: The Sound Of Change Live’ Concert.

Check back later this evening for live coverage of the CFDA Fashion Awards 2013.

The ‘Chime For Change: The Sound Of Change Live’ Concert at Twickenham Stadium in London is still going strong this evening with several acts already taking to the stage.

Florence Welch: The British singer was dressed in a custom Gucci teal column gown that was styled with a billowing jewel accented cape, which has become her signature.

John Legend: The singer, who like many of the stars at this event, is a Gucci devotee, wore an orange micro-dot Gucci double breasted navy suit from the brands Spring 2013 collection. Both Mr Hudson and Dwyane Wade have been spotted wearing this same suit.

15.05.13 Premiere, Runway To Red Carpet

Florence Welch In Miu Miu – ‘The Great Gatsby’ Premiere & Cannes Film Festival Opening Ceremony

Florence Welch In Miu Miu - ‘The Great Gatsby’ Premiere & Cannes Film Festival Opening Ceremony

Florence Welch continued her love affair with Miu Miu when she took to the red carpet for this evening’s ‘The Great Gatsby’ Cannes Film Festival premiere, which also served as the Opening Ceremony.

You may remember she looked amazing in Miu Miu for the New York premiere; in Cannes, not so much.

This look is just too garish for me, from the pepto-bismal pink colour and the polka dots of the dress to the hideous Miu Miu yellow-and-black platforms.

The kooky factor has to be admired, but I wish she selected one of her other favoured brands like Givenchy or Naeem Khan.

I will have nightmares that those shoes graced the Grand Théâtre Lumière tonight.

Florence Welch In Givenchy – 2013 Met Gala

FlorenceWelch

Florence Welch wowed on the 2013 Met Gala red carpet at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.

The singer put a vampy-bohemian spin on her ode to punk with a full-on fringe gown from the Givenchy Fall 2012 Couture collection.

Since Riccardo Tisci is a co-chair of tonight’s gala, it’s only natural that Florence wore the designer—and that she looked quite remarkable in his dress.

She’s statuesque enough to pull off this dramatic, long-sleeve creation and its floor-sweeping tassels without being overwhelmed.

But, truth be told, it was really Florence’s fiery-red locks that sold me on this all-black, rock-glam look.

On anyone else (or with any other hair colour), it would not have translated as powerfully.
