Who Wore It Better? Green Rory Beca Silk Tie Dress

FabSugar — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 04:00:22 -0800

Remember when I said wearing the same dress to the same event shouldn't happen? Well, it did again! Singer Katharine McPhee and actress January Jones both wore Rory Beca's green silk tie dress to Tao Nightclub's second anniversary party in Las Vegas. Katharine decided to go bare-legged and flirty with pointy gold pumps, while January chose a more funky look in navy blue tights and matching t-strap sandals. Who do you think wore it better?

Alexander McQueen Tulle-Underlay Silk Dress: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 10:00:22 -0800

Alexander McQueen is known for his avant-garde designs, so this Alexander McQueen Tulle-Underlay Silk Dress, $3,480, comes as no surprise. Though I am crushing on the mandarin collar, I can do without the tulle-underlay. It looks as though the wind is eternally blowing the dress up. Do you love it or hate it?

The Look For Less: Phillip Lim Recycled Zipper Dress

FabSugar — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 13:00:22 -0800

Remember when Kate Bosworth wore this Phillip Lim recycled zipper dress at the Gorgeous and Green benefit in San Francisco? Amazing. In fact, Becki Newton wore the same dress a couple months later – who wore it better? No doubt, this dress is hot, and sold out. Not that I could afford it even when it was available . . .

To see the look for less, read more.

Forever 21 finally jumped on the bandwagon a year later with this Sequin Silk Dress ($30). Given, it's not nearly as decadent as Lim's version, but the style is similar - sans zippers – and the price is right. Get 'em while they're hot!

Who Wore It Better? Cobalt Silk Marchesa Mini

FabSugar — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 15:00:22 -0800

It's stiff competition when it's between the model-like designer of the dress and an actual model. Alas, we must decide. Both beauties wore this cobalt strapless silk wool dress with draped bodice and kept everything to a minimum, to let the dress shine. Stunning earrings were adorned by both, as well as neutral pumps - though Jacquetta's sandals have a slight gold sheen. We don't witness Georgina's handbag, but Jacquetta's embellished gunmetal Marchesa clutch looks pretty cool. Who wore it best?

The next star to arrive in Berlin is British singer Joss Stone. The soulful gal has opted for this season's hottest footwear for the event wearing over the knee boots with a printed silk wrap dress. She picked up the colour in her dress with her dangling earrings. What do you think of Joss' look?

Kristin Cavallari wore a cool Alexander Wang dress on her date with Justin Bobby on The Hills last night. I was totally crushing . . . on the dress, silly! I found the top version, this Alexander Wang Silk Tank ($104, originally $265) for less than half off. Gotta love Nordstrom's Half-Yearly Sale. Doesn't the print remind you of Tetris?

Trend Alert: Big Blooms

It's time to scout your holiday dress of the season, and how can you resist the sweet smell of big blooms? Leighton sparkled in this blue, brush-painted rose silk bow front dress with patent belt by Prabal Gurung. If feminine and frilly is your thing, this is your lucky season. Oversize rosettes and flower motifs are not only in style, but quite classic, endlessly pretty. I say go dramatic or go home; I'm sure Leighton would second my emotion.

Paula Patton showed off her beauteous bod at the AFI Fest in LA wearing a silk Bottega Veneta dress. The corseted detail injects a sexy vibe to the modest mauve tone, and I love her strappy Jimmy Choo sandals. To complete the look, the actress adorned herself with crystal-drop earrings, choker necklace, and matching silver cuff. Scintillating, to say the least.
