Whilst on the campaign trail for her hit movie,
He’s Just Not That Into You, Drew Barrymore wowed me with her red carpet and TV appearances looks.
Her Lanvin strapless dress, was beautiful on her. I loved the nude satin sash on the neckline and silhouette the dress gave her. She really looked like she had fun on the red carpet that night with her co-stars.
This dress is currently on pre-order from Luisaviaroma.com for €3,307.
It looks even better with the necklace, which we saw Claire Danes wear to the Film Independent Spirit Awards this weekend.
The look was completed with Miu Miu heels.

I fell in love with Drew Barrymore when she wore this dress on
Jay Leno’s show earlier this month. So much so, she got my vote for
Best Dressed that week.
The Giambattista Valli sequined lace sheath dress is the epitome of chic, and her overall look impressed me, and I loved her elegant updo.
This dress is also available on pre-order from Luisaviaroma.com for €6,500.
These were two great looks for a girl who is usually more comfortable in khaki combats.

Ladies Loved Lanvin on the red carpet this year. Celebrities could not get enough of Alber Elbaz designs.
Natalie Portman, who wore his signature tiered ruffle cocktail dresses many times on the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival which kicked started the trend of wearing Lanvin on the red carpet this summer.
Padma Lakshmi and Natalie both wore 3 stunning Spring 2008 design’s, with Carine Roitfeld wore my favourite billowing dress, with a large patent belt to nip in her waist.
Lanvin fever did not die down when the Fall 2008 collections hit the runway. Quite the opposite. Even more stars walked the red carpet in the dark, mysterious designs.
Elbaz even managed to make what appears to be a bin liner -as worn by Brandy- look good.
Herve Leger was last years winner, before we had Herve Leger overload.

For some reason this event totally passed me by as I just found it, despite the event taking place on November, 6.
Tilda Swinton attended the 17th Annual BAFTA/LA Britannia Awards held at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza in LA wearing a Lanvin Resort 2009 polka dotted halter neck gown.
Tilda is the queen of androgyny, so this very feminine dress is quite ironic.
On paper this would have sounded like a bad idea, but Tilda does pull it off, and with some style.
I love the paillette detail on her shoulder.

Lanvin’s Spring 2009 collection was one of the last of Paris Fashion Week, and the one I was looking forward to the most.
I was not disappointed. In fact was was surprised Alber Elbaz introduced prints and floral embellishment on a few of the pieces, something I do not recall him using before.
Some maybe tiring of Alber’s silhouettes and shapes, but for me these are very much a Lanvin signature, and I do not think a collection would be complete without them.
There were many one-shoulder tops, and dresses in this collection, as there were many draped pieces.
The colour palette had lots of black, but there were also loud colours, like pink, green, orange, and yellow and more neutral colours like nude, pink and grey.
I have not doubt we will see many of these dresses on the red carpet. My favourite is the blue animal print one-shouldered dress.

Claire Danes was a vision of pure loviness when she arrived at the
Toronto Film Festival yesterday for her premiere
Me and Orson Welles, wearing a midnight blue
Lanvin asymmetric dress.
I knew this asymmetric layered, body-con dress was beautiful on the runway, but I did not realise how much so, until I saw it on Claire.
The actress, who stars alongside teen heart-throb Zac Efron in this movie, wore her amazing dress with cork Christian Louboutin slingbacks.

Rachel Evan Wood wore a
Lanvin Fall 2008 two-tone banded silk turtleneck dress to the photocall for her new movie,
The Wrestler at the
Piazzale del Casino during the 2008
Venice Film Festival this afternoon.
She wore her dress with black peep-toe shoes and a black touch. The only visible Gothic feature was her black nail varnish.

This evening for the premiere of
The Wrestler, Evan wore a silk olive green keyhole
Monqiue Lhuiller Fall 2008 gown, which had jeweled embellishments on the neckline and on the waist.
She complimented her dress with gold heels, and a gold Jimmy Choo Kase oval clutch.
Both looks work very well, but I am loving the Lanvin look best.
I am glad that Evan Rachel Wood has stopped emulating Dita, and worked more on finding her own look.
