Louis Vuitton designer Nicolas Ghesquière was named designer of the year at the InStyle Awards, and that's exactly why his dates look so damn good. Style stars Selena Gomez [1], Michelle Williams [2], and Doona Bae all showed up to the red carpet [3] on Nicolas's arm, wearing bold LV outfits that were all about sexy leather and lace-up details.
On paper, Selena's mesh, fringe-finished top shouldn't really go with a poofy white bubble skirt — but with slick patent slingback heels and a fierce cutout bra, it just worked. That's because Nicolas has become known for mixing feminine silhouettes with seriously edgy details — just look at how effortlessly cool Michelle looked wearing an A-line dress covered in spikes and zippers, and check out the thick chain strap that hung off Doona's belt, contrasting her frilly bishop-sleeved top!
It's clear why the Louis Vuitton crew turned heads when they showed up to the fashion party. Read on to see their looks in full — this is one stylish group we'd totally like to join.
