Front Row @ Versace Pre-Fall 2019

Pre-Fall collections are perhaps seen as the less interesting or sexy of all the collections presented, but now it seems that they are just as important at Fall and Spring, with big budget shows and A-list front rows.

Following Dior Men and Valentino last week, Versace presented their Pre-Fall 2019 collection in New York City on Sunday (December 2).

Diane Kruger: What a way to showcase your post-baby figure, in a Versace Spring 2019 mini no less. I can’t say the chunky belt is working for me here, but she’s still looking every inch a yummy mummy.

Ciara: While this Spring 2019 Versace suit showcases the brand tailoring, I would’ve loved something a bit more extravagant from Ciara, but the Versace medallion necklace and ruffle hem did prevent this from being a snooze.

Blake Lively: The actress shelved her favoured suit for an iconic Versace chainmail dress from the Spring 1999 collection. I love the ’90s spirit imbued in this look from the dress to the bountiful curls. I just wish she’d eased up on the jewels.

2018 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show After-Party

2018 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show After-Party

The 2018 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show took place in New York on Thursday (November 8), with a performance from Rita Ora.

Following the show was the after-party; where a host of models served up the expected sheer, mini and slashed dresses, but there were also a few surprises.

Candice Swanepoel: The model was looking not-so angelic in Khyeli Spring 2019 Couture. As sheer dresses go, I love the beaded detailing.

Liu Wen: The model never goes the sheer route, but she did on this occasion wearing a look from Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini’s Spring 2019 collection.

Toni Garrn: This golden girl managed to leave something to the imagination in her draped chain metal dress styled with Giuseppe Zanotti sandals.

ELLE’s 25th Annual Women In Hollywood Celebration

ELLE’s 25th Annual Women In Hollywood celebration which took place on Monday (October 15) in Los Angeles, California, saw a lot more lovely ladies in attendance.

Sara Sampaio: The Portuguese beauty wore a stereotypical sexy Julien Macdonald Spring 2019 dress, which usually isn’t a surprise on most models, but it was for Sara.

Vanessa Hudgens: The actress appeared to be edging back to her boho roots in this Alberta Ferretti Spring 2018 pinafore dress. However, I wonder if the rust-hue denim jacket was necessary to sell this look?

Yara Shahidi: As one of the honorees for the night, the ‘Black-ish’ star donned a look from the co-host Calvin Klein. The dress appears to be a simple yellow sheath, until you clock the satin train at the back. To give the look another edge, she wore dual-colour sandals to round out her look.

Natalia Vodianova’s Naked Heart Event

Natalia Vodianova's Naked Heart Event

There were many show-stopping ensembles at Natalia Vodianova’s Naked Heart Event on Thursday (September 27) in Paris, France.

Natalia Vodianova: The organization’s founder has a tradition of donning red for grand events and this was no exception. She showed some leg in an Alexandre Vauthier polka dot dress. I mean it in a positive fashion that it brings to mind a designer Minnie Mouse style because of the pattern and rounded shoulders.

Bella Hadid: The model showcased Jean Paul Gaultier’s mastery of corsetry in a vintage gown with AS29 earrings. The whittled bodice against the pleated side panels has such a striking column impact which is enhanced by the electric coral and pink.

You Tube Fashion & Beauty Party

YT Fashion & Beauty

There was a bit of everything at the You Tube Fashion & Beauty party during Paris Fashion Week on Wednesday (September 26) in Paris, France.

Bella Hadid: Most people think of Emilio Pucci and think prints and associate the model with sexy, trendy looks. So, this more restrained Fall 2018 dress from the designer with Dorateymur ‘The Investment’ bag was a surprise. The ruching brings some allure.

Victoria Beckham: It’s no surprise that the fashion designer was clad in Victoria Beckham. She is her label’s best model and will likely have everyone wearing pale yellow trousers with diaphanous muted pink tops. Even with the light fabric there is still a strong sense of tailoring.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley: The supermodel was in full party mode in Attico Spring 2018. It’s a fun showgirl-inspired piece that might look out of place compared to the previous looks, but others bought into the mood.

Green Carpet Fashion Awards Italia 2018

We’ve already seen a number of beauties who attended the Green Carpet Fashion Awards Italia 2018 on Sunday (September 23) in Milan, Italy. But, that was only the beginning.

Donatella Versace: With a very Donatella look, as we’d expect, the designer wore a lemon-bright Atelier Versace embellished gown that featured all of her label’s signature sexy appeal and figure-hugging curves. Naturally, the matching platforms were part of the equation.

Cindy Crawford: Also putting the sultry impact of an Atelier Versace gown to work, the supermodel struck a pose in this design that was rendered in a lovely shade of teal — even if the spidery netting of the corset translated as a bit dated.

Hari Nef: I don’t think this Gucci gown has enough fringe. Anyone else?!

Sara Sampaio: The model shone wore a scintillating sequin Maison Alexandrine gown with Christian Louboutin heels and bombshell waves.

Cardi B: Extravagance is generally the singer’s middle name, and especially so in this Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2018 extravaganza of ruffles and jewels.

Cindy Crawford And Candice Swanepoel Host 'ANGELS' By Russell James Book Launch And Exhibit

The ‘ANGELS’ by Russell James book launch and exhibit took place on Thursday (September 6) in New York City, with a host of models in attendance.

Cindy Crawford: As the host, the supermodel shone brightly in Tom Ford’s gold ruched lurex and tulle cocktail dress.

Alessandra Ambrosio: It may not have been her event, but she certaintly stole the host’s thunder in this opulent gold Dundas Spring 2019 dress with a matching cape.

Candice Swanepoel: Joining her co-host Cindy Crawford, the model kept things simple in an Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2018 LBD. It’s the shoes that look complicated.

01.09.18 Premiere, Runway To Red Carpet

Sara Sampaio In Armani Privé – ‘A Star Is Born’ Venice Film Festival Premiere

Sara Sampaio’s fairytale moment came at the ‘A Star Is Born’ premiere during the 2018 Venice Film Festival on Friday (August 31) in Italy.

Wearing her second Armani Privé Fall 2018 gown of this festival, she is proving to be a very worthy ambassador for the fashion house.

I love how this Armani Privé silk bustier gown, embroidered with a pavé of champagne-colour crystals, marries old Hollywood glamour with a modern approach to red carpet style.

I was instantly swept away by the elegance of voluminous silhouette, the micro details you can see the close ups and the dramatic cat-eyes for a touch of sex appeal.

Most will be thankful for the luscious curls on this occasion, which enhanced the fairytale princess moment.

Sara Sampaio In Armani Privé – ‘First Man’ Venice Film Festival Premiere & Opening Ceremony

Sara Sampaio In Armani Privé - ‘First Man’ Venice Film Festival Premiere & Opening Ceremony

Sara Sampaio was one of the many models who graced the red carpet for the opening ceremony and the ‘First Man’ premiere during the 2018 Venice Film Festival today (August 29) Italy.

As you know I tend to group the models all together, but this Armani Prive Fall 2018 look deserved a post all to itself.

Sara is the one model you can rely on during festival season to blow everyone out of the water.

On this occasion she looked like she could’ve stepped out of a bygone era such is the classic elegance of this champagne coloured lamé silk crepe gown embroidered with crystals.
That bow could’ve been overwhelming, but it’s not.

That lip could’ve read as too bold, but it was the one touch of glamour this look needed, and I’m also grateful she opted to go sans jewels.

Could she have done something more with her hair? I didn’t mind the simple effort until I saw how greasy it looked from the back.

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.

‘Backstage Secrets By Russell James’ Book Launch

Lais Ribeiro, Sara Sampaio, Martha Hunt, and Gigi Hadid attended the book launch of ‘Backstage Secrets By Russell James’ on Thursday (May 31) in New York City.

Gigi Hadid: Not really following the expected dress code, the model wore an Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood Fall 2018 sleek satin look styled wtih Olgana Paris ‘La troublante’ velvet pumps. I love the sleek offering of the blouse which is hit hard with understated cool vibe of the asymmetrical hemline.

Lais Ribeiro: Serving up her usual brand of smouldering sex appeal, the model wore a red hot Cushine et Ochs signature fitted dress with a fresh, modern take on the asymmetric neckline. What makes this look even more remarkable, is that she’s not wearing a stitch of makeup. You may remember that Dakota Johnson wore the same dress back in February.
