Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Russian fashion designer and magazine editor, Dasha Zhukova, was out and about in Miami last week, giving us a glimpse into her enviable closet.

On Tuesday evening, Dasha wore a Nina Ricci Spring 2012 cocktail dress to the Dior pop-up shop event.

The purple and lilac dress with 3 different floral prints was toughened up with a thin black belt, as seen on the runway, as well as Dasha’s addition of edgy, black leather gladiator heels.

To host the Louis Vuitton Art.sy Beachside Barbecue on Wednesday, Dasha wore a Christopher Kane Resort 2012 lace dress with a mod silhouette and raglan sleeves.

Metallic panels give this pretty dress a typically interesting Kane twist.

She accessorized with Alexander Wang Fabiana metallic leather sandals and a feather accented shoulder bag.

Dasha ended her week in another Nina Ricci Spring 2012 cocktail dress whist attending the world premiere preview of Marina Abramovic’s ‘The Artist Is Present’.

Black strappy platforms matched the black tulle peplum detailing on the waistband of her patchwork print floral dress.

Which of these three completely unique looks is your favorite?

Tuesday’s purple petal look with tough heels might just be a perfect combo.

Here are the rest of the stars who attended the 2011 British Fashion Awards.

Kristen McMenamy: The American model wore an ice-white Alexander McQueen Fall 2011 organza pearl embroidered dress to go with her ice-white hair.  Her matching McQueen accessories included a filigree skull clutch, python boots and fur scarf.

Stella McCartney: The designer was, of course, in a look from her recent Spring 2012 collection. Her printed jumpsuit epitomizes her chic, laidback style of dressing. Iron-straight hair and black sandals provided the finishing touches.

Caroline Sieber: Like Alexa Chung, the stylist also wore a look from the Christopher Kane Spring 2012 collection. Her iridescent plunging floral-print mini dress was unimaginatively paired with black pumps.

Alexa Chung won the British Style Award at the 2011 British Fashion Awards which were held at the Savoy Hotel in London last night.

I think the person sitting next to me summed up a few people’s feelings when he said, “Again? Is there no one else they can pick?”

The TV personality accepted her award wearing a Christopher Kane Spring 2012 dress – our first look at this collection on the red carpet.

The ivory silk satin dress with an embellished overlay was teamed with a bejewelled Christopher Kane clutch.

Keeping to her signature laidback style, she added Charlotte Olympia ‘Kitty’ embroidered velvet pumps. We’ve seen her wear the velvet flats several times before.

She debuted longer bangs which were too long in my opinion.

Minimal (if any) makeup completed her look.

Yasmin le Bon was joined by her husband Simon on the red carpet at the launch of the Vertu Constellation in London last night.

The supermodel, who doesn’t appear to be aging, wore a Christopher Kane Fall 2011 dress.

This isn’t the first time she’s worn a dress by the British designer; she appears to be a big fan.

On this occasion she donned a sequined tulle dress with the gel-filled PVC wave trims on the pockets and hemline.

I would’ve preferred this dress on Yasmin without the middle panel going across the waist.

Sporting her trademark hair pulled back into a bun hairstyle, the supermodel wore black strappy sandals and opted for a bronze lip colour which perfectly complemented her caramel skin tone.

Vogue’s Senior Market Editor, Meredith Melling Burke, and Jeff Rudes, CEO of J Brand, hosted a dinner for Christopher Kane to celebrate the launch of the J Brand / Christopher Kane Collection in New York City recently.

The forever-stylish Meredith wore a Christopher Kane Fall 2011 black crepe dress with green gel-filled PVC trims, whilst Christopher wore a shimmering tri-colour Prada Fall 2011 top.

This Christopher Kane for J Brand Resort 2012 collection combines J Brand’s denim expertise with Kane’s innovative designs and love for neon colours.

The collection includes original fit jeans and denim jackets in bold neon colours, crisp black and white, and vintage medium and dark denim washes.

If you are wondering how to work these neon jeans, check out Caroline Sieber, Hanneli Mustaparta and Dree Hemingway who all provide interesting and workable ways to incorporate these bold hues into our closet.

Do you see yourself donning neon denim?

You can shop this collection now at Net-A-Porter US and Net-A-Porter International.

Ciara wore this Christopher Kane Fall 2011 dress to the Station Invasion Concert tour in New York City back in August.

The singer is well known for her rock-hard abs, so it was no surprise that she picked the revealing frock.

The only thing missing from her dress was the gel-filled PVC trims which were a signature of the collection.

Christian Louboutin Daffodil pumps and hot pink lips completed her look.

British singer Ellie Goulding wore the same dress to the 2011 American Music Award on Sunday.

Whilst she also has impressive abs, she doesn’t quite sell this look for me like Ciara did, even though she also wore Louboutins and carried an edgy Lulu Guinness black studded lips clutch.

Ciara wins for simply having more presence.
