The Best-Dressed Models and Celebrities of Aug. 3 2012

Naomi Campbell's Fashion For Relief dinner in London may have been packed with models, but the style on offer was refreshingly low-key. Lily Donaldson, Karen Elson, and Georgia May Jagger each donned various versions of the LBD, while Jourdan Dunn went ultrasleek in a streamlined beige ensemble. Kate Moss, in her gold-embroidered vintage caftan, was the embodiment of easy elegance as well.

At an intimate gathering in honor of Brad Goreski's birthday in New York, the looks were just as breezy. The downtown crowd — which included Christina Ricci, Taylor Tomasi Hill, and Prabal Gurung (left) — was the picture of Summery fun with bright hues, botanical prints, and unfussy silhouettes.

See all those looks — plus Mischa Barton's tux redux in London, Jennifer Lawrence's snakeskin Narciso Rodriguez in Hollywood, and Dree Hemingway's Marc Jacobs prints in Switzerland — here, in our best-of-the-week slideshow.

Taylor Tomasi Hill Style Tips Resort 2013

Olivier Theyskens's Resort 2013 is filled with the sorts of slouchy-sleek separates that can't help but exude an intrinsic sense of cool. Fitting then that the collection would be a personal favorite of someone who also can't help but exude that same sense of cool: Taylor Tomasi Hill. The former Marie Claire style director and current Moda Operandi artistic director took time out to walk us through her favorite picks from the collection — now available for a limited time for preorder — and spills how she would style each piece. From a leather pair of short-shorts to an oil-slick burnout sweater to the gauziest multicolored sparkling top, they're all here, and they're all totally covetable. After all, as Tomasi Hill says, "Who doesn't need a sequin crop tee? Olivier Theyskens made me realize I absolutely need this one."

  • What's more British than Agyness Deyn and Dr. Martens? Actually, a lot of things, but that didn't stop the model from collaborating with the shoe brand on a limited-edition capsule collection due out this Fall. "The brand is a great fit for me, as it stands for strong character and being able to shape your own personal identity," Deyn explained. [The Daily Telegraph]

  • Looks like Taylor Tomasi Hill and Harley Viera Newton might have had more fun than anyone else during Paris Fashion Week. Moda Operandi recently released a video of the two dancing around, eating macarons, and riding carousels between shows in the City of Light. [Fashionista]

  • Barneys now offers more than just clothes, shoes, and accessories. The retailer just opened up an art print pop-up store in its Chelsea Passage location. [Fashion ETC]

  • Jessica Biel is stunning on the April cover of W. Also stunning: her confession that she cut the heads off all her childhood Barbie dolls. "It looked demonic," the actress said. [Styleite]

  • Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana certainly love their pasta. Not only did their Spring 2012 show feature earrings made of the stuff, but for the April issue of Harper's Bazaar, the duo planned a big Italian dinner complete with spaghetti, pizza, and guests Pixie Geldof and Eva Herzigova. Terry Richardson photographed the festivities. [The Huffington Post]

Among the treasures? A giant farm table, wallpaper from Studio Four, and a harness-like chandelier. "Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't, but that's what makes it fun. I just try again," Hill says of her decorating choices. [Vogue]
