Golden Globe Awards: Thandie Newton

While most of the ladies opted for long gowns, Thandie Newton switched it up in a jewel-embellished minidress by Giles at the Golden Globes.

While most of the ladies opted for long gowns, Thandie Newton switched it up in a jewel-embellished minidress by Giles at the Golden Globes. To temper the semisheer and fitted silhouette, Thandie added a sweet touch via candy-pink ankle-strap sandals, pink lips, and a silver box clutch. Do you think she should have opted for a longer gown, or do you like her more daring look?

Giles Spring 2013

Giles Deacon played with an array of fabrics for Spring 2013: leather, silk, satin, and even denim.
Giles Spring 2013 | Runway

Giles Deacon played with an array of fabrics for Spring 2013: leather, silk, satin, and even denim. Laser-cut leather dresses were one of the standouts in the leather department, while denim suits and bustier-style dresses lent an air of casualness amid fancy fabrics. The color scheme was mainly black and white, with pops of tan and soft blue. All the models wore bright pink lipstick, giving each look a playful touch. Dresses ranged from ethereal and flowy to retro and flared, to all-out poufy. At the close of the collection, embellished maxi and mini gowns shined bright and stole the show, as did a few over-the-top hats that the late Isabella Blow would have no doubt gushed over.

The Most Outrageous Trend of the Year Is . . . Gorilla Sleeves!

No year is complete without a few outrageous fashion trends, and we asked you to weigh in on which one had you scratching your head the most.


No year is complete without a few outrageous fashion trends, and we asked you to weigh in on which one had you scratching your head the most. After counting the votes, it was pretty clear that overstuffed gorilla sleeves were the craziest runway trend of 2011 — we saw the look on the runways at Peter Som, Rag & Bone, and Giles, to name a few, making for a pretty unforgettable — and hard to pull off — fashion fad. We wonder what wacky wardrobe pieces 2012 will bring?

Freaky or Fabulous? The Gorilla Arm Trend For Fall 2011

Fur, both real and faux, returned for Fall, and one of the most interesting incarnations of the furry stuff was the debut of the gorilla arm.

Fur, both real and faux, returned for Fall, and one of the most interesting incarnations of the furry stuff was the debut of the gorilla arm. By that, we mean the seriously, thickly fur-covered sleeves of coats. Rag & Bone showed it in their futuristic Scottish ski bum, Giles did it under a black corset, and Peter Som took it to the trench. It's certainly a bold look, but one that could be hard to pull off. What do you think of this trend? Would you wear it?

After Veruschka at Giles, What Does Katie Grand Have in Store Casting-Wise at Louis Vuitton and Emanuel Ungaro?

>> Katie Grand is known for cultivating unique model casts — last season at Giles and Louis Vuitton, both of which she styles, there was a proliferation of Victoria's Secret models on the runway.

>> Katie Grand is known for cultivating unique model casts — last season at Giles and Louis Vuitton, both of which she styles, there was a proliferation of Victoria's Secret models on the runway. And while she brought back some of those "curvier" girls for Giles again this season — Alessandra Ambrosio, Ana Beatriz Barros, Anne Vyalitsyna, Noemie Lenoir, plus Sports Illustrated models Jessica Hart, Abbey Clancy (who is pregnant), and Julie Ordon — also peppered in were Agyness Deyn, who shaved her hair into a mohawk for the show, Amber Le Bon, British model and TV presenter Kelly Brook, and 71-year-old Veruschka, who closed the show.

Grand is working with Giles Deacon on his debut collection for Emanuel Ungaro this season — so surely the cast will be special for that occasion — although the only hint that came is not model-related: Deacon is working with edgy London label Sibling on knits for the show. And as for Vuitton, all Grand would say was: “[Marc Jacobs] said, ‘I’ve got all these beautiful clothes for Vuitton — what on earth are we going to do with them?’”
