28.06.18 Runway To Red Carpet

Lily Aldridge In Brandon Maxwell – Bvlgari Dinner & Party

Lily Aldridge attended the BVLGARI dinner and party this evening (June 28) in Rome, Italy, where she was joined by Sylvia Hoeks, who brought the drama, and Bella Hadid added some smoldering sex appeal to the occasion.

I’m not really sure where to place Lily’s Brandon Maxwell Spring 2018 dress.

While the look does makes an elegant statement in pristine white with a sleek pleated bodice, it didn’t quite pick me up and swing me around the room like the other ladies.

However, there is no denying how beautiful this simple look is, which really is all about selling the BVLGARI jewels.

‘Ocean’s 8’ World Premiere Red Carpet Roundup

There were a host of models supporting the all-female cast consisting of Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Awkwafina, Sarah Paulson, Anne Hathaway, Mindy Kaling, Helena Bonham Carter and Rihanna, for the world premiere of ‘Ocean’s 8’ in New York City last night (June 5).

Liu Wen: As always the model looked effortless and chic in Jason Wu Fall 2018. I always admire her style as she marches to the beat of her own drum. I covet this from head-to-toe.

Adriana Lima: In this Roberto Cavalli Couture gown, it’s sheer, beaded, has a high slit and deep plunge. If you were to design a dress for Adriana, this would be it. Predictable, but fits to a ‘T’. But if you to ask me who was sexier, her or Liu Wen, I would say Liu Wen. Sophia Webster ‘Nicole’ sandals and Chopard jewelry completed her look.

Gigi Hadid: The model went from a riot of colour at the CFDA Awards, to just black in Vera Wang Collection Spring 2018. I love the structured bustier with trapunto detailing, but the rest doesn’t grab my attention.

Models @ 2018 CFDA Fashion Awards

In our final sweep of the 2018 CFDA Fashion Awards red carpet, we focus on some of the models in attendance.

Martha Hunt: As far as unique looks goes, Martha’s Thom Browne Fall 2018 caged bustier dress was on par with Lupita Nyongo’s. In terms of creativity and styling, this was one of my favourites of the night. Atelier Swarovski earrings completed her look.

Gigi Hadid: Looking like a work of art in Versace Fall 2018, the model stunned in a colourful graphic brushstroke print top and leggings giving off a catsuit-like effect. I know many of you aren’t fans of Gigi’s style, but I”m sure you’ll love that she opted for something a lot less predictable on this occasion.

Kendall Jenner: Speaking of predictable, there was something about this feathered Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2017 Couture look that felt very déjà vu; like she’s worn something similar before.

Models @ 2018 Met Gala

Naturally, the models were out in force for the 2018 Met Gala on Monday (May 7) in New York City. Here’s what these ‘heavenly bodies’ had on.

Ashley Graham: Channeling a bronzed goddess moment, the model donned an Atelier Prabal Gurung sequin-encrusted gown that introduced a dramatic, Met-ready sensibility with the long, satin-edged cape. The leg jut was put to work, with Taski jewels and Giuseppe Zanotti sandals completing the look.

Bella Hadid: I’m sure many will be raising their hands in praise that Bella opted for something a bit more covered than her naked bodysuit from last year’s Met Gala. This custom Chrome Hearts x Gareth Pugh design riffed on sinner and saint with the dark glamour of the latex corset and sculptural, villainous cape and fingerless gloves. This would have been all bad-girl were it not for the cross necklace and cross-embroidered veil that trailed behind her.

Alain Mikli x Alexandre Vauthier Eyewear Collaboration Launch Party

There was a number of beauties on hand to celebrate the Alain Mikli x Alexandre Vauthier Eyewear collaboration launch party on Thursday (April 5) in New York City.

Rita Ora: Showing off her Alain Mikli x Alexandre Vauthier ‘Edwidge Jeweled’ sunglasses, the singer complemented the sparkly style in a sharp Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2018 outfit. She loves to accessorize and commit to a look, so I was pleased with the restraint shown here. It allows the soft pleating and the contrasting fabrics on the ensemble to stand out. Crucially, the glasses are not lost.

Lily Aldridge: Showing her lengthy pins, the model was also clad in an Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2018 ensemble. Despite the draping, the style has a sultry figure-forming finish. Alain Mikli x Alexandre Vauthier ‘Edwidge Jeweled’ sunglasses completed the ensemble.

Joan Smalls: The disco sentiment was strong in the Puerto Rican beauty’s Alexandre Vauthier Spring 2018 outfit with its glistening fabric and the tall Giuseppe Zanotti boots. Alain Mikli x Alexandre Vauthier ‘Edwidge Jeweled’ sunglasses brought even more bling. Her soft hair and makeup kept the finish modern.

The Alain Mikli x Alexandre Vauthier collaboration includes four signature styles; Edwidge, Edwidge Jeweled, Roselyne, and Nadége. The collection is available starting today for pre-sale at Barneys.com, Alain Mikli NYC, and Alain Mikli Paris Boutiques.
