Allison McNamara — Tue, 15 May 2012 13:25:44 PDT

It was a star-studded affair at the LA premiere of What to Expect When You're Expecting, and celebrities brought their style game to the red carpet at Grauman's Chinese Theatre in LA. Jennifer Lopez stole the night in a nude silk gown by Maria Lucia Hohan, complete with monochromatic accessories thanks to Sergio Rossi and Jacqueline Nerguizian. Elizabeth Banks took a fashion risk in a moody Alexander McQueen fit-and-flare frock, and Brooklyn Decker brought her beachy-glam style in a mixed-print yellow maxi dress by Giambattista Valli. Watch today's Fab Flash to get all the details on these fabulous outfits. On Allison McNamara: Rebecca Taylor jacket, Zara blouse.

Met Gala: Florence Welch

Brittney Stephens — Mon, 07 May 2012 22:03:26 PDT

Florence Welch continues to prove that her style is just as angelic as her vocals - the songstress sported a truly impressive and avant-garde gown from Alexander McQueen's Fall '12 collection that made a real impact on the red carpet. One look at Florence in this dress, and it's hard to imagine it on anyone else. The ethereal gown looked amazing once it hit the flashbulbs, and it's the kind of out-of-the-box, quirky outfit choice that we expect to see at the Met Gala. The gown was embroidered with tiers of organza, and Florence kept things otherwise simple with armadillo-heeled platform sandals and a signature skull-adorned McQueen clutch. Are you feeling Florence's red carpet look?

Met Gala: Cate Blanchett

Trust Cate Blanchett to deliver drama with perfect poise. The veteran fashionista wowed in an ostrich-feathered McQueen confection - a fishtail gown with the most decadent display of feathers gathered at the hemline. We love that she balances both the volume and luxury of her dress with understated makeup and a simple, slicked-back ponytail. With a gown like this, you need little else but a pair of delicate studs, a diamond bangle, and a box clutch - precisely how Cate perfects her Met Gala style. How do you rate her arrival?

Alexander McQueen Fall 2012

Hannah Weil — Wed, 07 Mar 2012 04:20:03 PST

All gorgeous iterations of volume and texture, Sarah Burton gives us a new slant on Alexander McQueen's futuristic sense with femininity and optimism for Fall 2012. She tapped right into girlish fantasy from the very beginning and saw it all the way through in pinks, fuchsia, floral-embellishment, and the most extreme proportions of fluff and fur. There may be less of the provocative, darker sense that McQueen's later collections were made of, but that's not to say that Burton doesn't impress with her own artistry. The shapely play and construction are a testament to Burton's expertise. Floral-embellishments feel like full rosebushes on voluminous tiers, feathers and fringe move like beautiful sea creatures, and sculptural laser-cut looks have the delicacy of porcelain. In every piece, Burton tells her story - romantic, yes, but not tinged in nostalgia; with mirrored visors on, McQueen's girl is still looking toward the future.

Trends: Volume, texture, femininity, fur, metallics.
Colors: Pink, fuchsia, black, gray, white, silver.
Key Piece: The white and black laser-cut looks were a beautiful departure from the extreme volume.
Accessories: Fur, floral, and fringe-embellished platforms to match every look, visor-like glasses, furry mittens and gloves, fur collars, oversize metallic bows and flowers at the waist.
Who Would Wear It: The most whimsical and imaginative of fashionistas; Anna Dello Russo would be a perfect fit for the voluminous furs and pom-pom adorned looks.

Go For Baroque: Shop Dresses Inspired by Jessica Chastain's Gorgeous Oscars Gown

Brittney Stephens — Thu, 01 Mar 2012 05:00:00 PST

Though there are many things that make us wish we could have been on the Oscars red carpet - Gwyneth's cape, Angelina's infamous right leg, George Clooney's everything - high on that list was the opportunity to see Jessica Chastain's gorgeous Alexander McQueen gown in person. On television it looked so stunning, so elegant, so opulent, that we could only imagine how it appeared up close. The actress, who was nominated for her performance in The Help, showed up to the event (with her nana, no less) looking every bit the movie star; she donned Harry Winston jewels and a loose yet sophisticated half-updo, and smartly let her Baroque, gothic-inspired gown steal the show. Black is an obvious choice for evening, but one that can be easily jazzed up through your shoes, jewelry, and accessories. When you find a dress as statement-making as Jessica's, you rarely need any extra accoutrements. We've picked some similar options for your next fancy fête - click the widget below to see and shop them now.

Oscars: Jessica Chastain

FabSugar — Sun, 26 Feb 2012 15:36:09 PST

Jessica Chastain looks stunning on the red carpet in a custom Alexander McQueen organza gown. The nature-inspired gold beading and embroidery was done by hand, and you can appreciate the intricate work. The sweetheart necklace is super flattering, and because the gold embroidery on the dress makes such a statement, Jessica smartly keeps everything else simple and natural. The wavy hair is a soft choice and even a bit romantic. We think this is one of Jessica's best red carpet looks yet - what do you think?

McQ by Alexander McQueen Serves Up Bagel-Shaped Locks in London

Jaime Richards — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 11:23:00 PST

If there was one word to describe McQ by Alexander McQueen's London show, it would be dramatic. Models, decked out in military-inspired ensembles, walked a darkly lit runway full of fantastical touches, including a hidden rope at the finale that led to a fairy-tale cottage. And if that wasn't enough, the hair was just as surreal, with models donning tightly pulled, bagel-shaped buns atop their heads. Will the trend catch on? Donut (sorry) count on it. But after such an impressive first showing for the diffusion line, we can hardly wait to see what the house of McQueen will offer in upcoming seasons.
