Kate Bosworth's Black Leather Lends Edge to Her Ladylike Hemline

While attending Calvin Klein's Infinite Loop exhibition in South Korea, Kate Bosworth chose a black-and-ivory Calvin Klein dress from the Fall 2012 collection.

While attending Calvin Klein's Infinite Loop exhibition in South Korea, Kate Bosworth chose a black-and-ivory Calvin Klein dress from the Fall 2012 collection. The result was part edgy, part ladylike, and very easy to re-create. All you need is a leather top — it can be any color, but black has the strongest effect — and a knee-length pleated ivory skirt. Match them up, throw on a metallic belt for shine, black pumps for polish, and a clutch, like Kate's white Calvin Klein, for fancy flair. Finish with rhinestone cluster earrings and a pulled-back hair for further sleekness. Wear Kate's inspired outfit to an occasion where you want to be demure but dazzling.

Kate Bosworth and Michael Polish Couple Up For a Calvin Klein Event

Kate Bosworth and Michael Polish held hands and posed for photos at a party hosted by Calvin Klein in Seoul last night.

Kate Bosworth and Michael Polish held hands and posed for photos at a party hosted by Calvin Klein in Seoul last night. Kate mingled with Calvin Klein creative director Francisco Costa and chatted with fellow actress Chloe Moretz when she wasn't sharing kisses with her date. South Korea is the latest loved-up stop for Kate and Michael. The pair visited NYC earlier this month for the Met Gala, where Kate modeled a fringed Prada minidress.

Fresh off an extensive press tour for Dark Shadows, Chloe Moretz also made the trek to Asia for the fashionable party. Chloe's currently on a break from film, but she's gearing up to start production on a remake of Steven King's Carrie. Fans of the original have voiced concerns over a Carrie reboot, though with Julianne Moore signed on to play Carrie's mother, it's shaping up to be a talented cast.

Hollywood's Secret to Sexy Curves: Black Cutaway Dresses

What do celebs do when they want to give off the appearance that they have sexy curves?

What do celebs do when they want to give off the appearance that they have sexy curves? Why, slip on a black cutaway dress! Eva Longoria recently did it in her Victoria Beckham stretch-crepe cutaway dress, Lucy Hale got in on the look via an Opening Ceremony racerback dress, Taylor Schilling dabbled in her Calvin Klein gown, and Jennifer Carpenter also tried the style via a black cutaway dress. As you can see, cutaway necklines, where more of the shoulder and decolletage are exposed, create a wave-like shape across the shoulders, giving the appearance of curves. The rest of the dress is streamlined, making the top half stand out. Plus, black helps keep the look super polished, allowing for the cutaway, not the color, to be the star. Want to get in on Hollywood's secret? Shop the widget, including Eva and Lucy's exact dresses, below!

Here's Why You Need to Line Up For Francisco Costa's Calvin Klein Dress Collection For Macy's

Zoe Saldana, Kerry Washington, and most recently Emily Blunt at the Met Gala are just a few of the celebrities who don Francisco Costa's minimally chic collection for Calvin Klein, and now you can get a piece of Francisco's genius designs for much less.

Zoe Saldana, Kerry Washington, and most recently Emily Blunt at the Met Gala are just a few of the celebrities who don Francisco Costa's minimally chic collection for Calvin Klein, and now you can get a piece of Francisco's genius designs for much less. Today, we got a preview of Francisco Costa for Calvin Klein (Francisco's first ever diffusion collection), exclusively available at Macy's on May 15, and believe us when we say the line is every bit as chic as the designer's main collection. "It's a good price, great design," said Costa. "One of the inspiration points came from the Museum of Modern Art in Sao Paulo, which was really inspirational because there was a picture of a sunset picture, and the sun was just hitting the pavement. It was so significant to me and that's where the color palette came from . . . The fabric is so nice, very versatile, and easy to wear during the day, to the office, and into the evening." One touch of the fabric and you will not believe that each dress only costs from $135 to $180. "If you think of Jennifer Lawrence in her red dress at the Oscars, this is basically it, what it represents," said Costa. Check out the slideshow to see the collection — additional colors like guava, warm cocoa, and iron are not included in the lookbook, but will be available upon launch — right now, then remember to check out Macy's in stores or online on May 15 and nab a dress, or two, before they sell out fast.

The collection of jersey and crepe pieces — titled Francisco Costa For Calvin Klein — will be priced from $135 to $180 and is part of the retailer's "A Magical Journey to Brasil" Spring initiative. "The collection really represents Calvin Klein; its really light, its really well-made, and the price is really right." Costa told us. "It's always a challenge but very exciting to design within a different block. It's good that we can bring our collection product to a much larger audience."

After a few years, people completely forget that the brand was dormant," De Lummen said. [Vogue UK]
