Grammy Awards: Malin Akerman

FabSugar — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 17:54:17 PST

Malin Akerman took to the Grammys in a supersleek Cushnie et Ochs sheath. A cutout at the neckline gives the look a sexier edge, as do a pair of open-toe booties. The rest she plays with cocktail-chic add-ons - just a few silver jewels and a shimmering black box clutch to complete the look. What's your take on Malin's white-hot style?

Cushnie et Ochs Fall 2012

Chi Diem Chau — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 22:41:32 PST

Cushnie et Ochs was all about the femme-fatale factor for Fall 2012 as designers Carly Cushnie and Michelle Ochs showed a vast array of body-con dresses punctuated with modern details. Inspired by Pedro Almodóvar's The Skin I Live In, the duo put the spotlight on fitted sheaths featuring sexy cutouts. Zippers also played a large role in the story, lined against the length of the body and, while we've yet to predict the Hollywood girl who will dare to wear it, cupped underneath the bust line. If the body-conscious silhouettes seemed overtly sexy, Cushnie and Ochs tempered the sexy theme with loose, yet still seductive, silk draped cutout dresses made in gorgeous cobalt and emerald-green jewel tones.

Trends: Sporty zipper details and cutouts.
Colors: Blue, black, ecru, cobalt, silver, emerald green.
Key Piece: The draped cutout dresses were simultaneously sexy and sleek.
Accessories: Silver, black, and ecru high-heel pumps.
Who Would Wear It: Red-carpet cuties like Olivia Wilde and Reese Witherspoon.

Celeb Style: Jena Malone

Hannah Weil — Tue, 05 Apr 2011 10:58:04 PDT

We're completely taken with Jena Malone's subtle evening style. We love how she plays with proportion - adding an oversize blazer ($485) to her sleek Cushnie et Ochs knit gown - and color, with a pair of cheeky red platforms ($148). It's understated and just a little playful. If you're looking for the same minimalist-chic, just click the items above to shop.

2011 Fall New York Fashion Week: Cushnie et Ochs

Noria Morales — Mon, 14 Feb 2011 11:26:04 PST

A road trip from LA to Vegas inspired Carly and Michelle, the designer duo behind Cushnie et Ochs, to bring some fringe and feathers to their ultra-tailored and sexy Fall collection. Models adorned with single feathers made a loose reference to Native American culture, while goat hair fringe on many of the dresses resembled a witch's wig. That aside, the designers' knack for body-conscious and modern silhouettes came through in tailored trousers that flared at the ankle, ultra-modern peplum shell tops, and fitted dresses with skeletal boning. Their use of leather - from a sexy fringed pencil skirt to trim on their sheer blouses - added a warrior princess vibe to the show. Outerwear was a highlight, particularly a cropped moto-peacoat hybrid with extra-wide lapels that came in purple snakeskin and military green wool.

Trends: Leather, fringe, body-conscious dressing, peplum, flared trousers, Native American influences.
Colors: Deep purple, olive, black, white.
Key Looks: The sexy trousers and the cropped moto-peacoat.
Accessories: Feathers in the hair.
Who Would Wear It: Badasses with a lot of confidence.

Love It or Hate It? Chunky Minxed Manis at Fashion Week

BellaSugar — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 06:00:00 PST

We spotted these ever-so-edgy chunky - and what I assume to be Minxed - nails at the Cushnie et Ochs show. While I'm impressed by the manicurist's skills, I don't know how viable a manicure with this 3-D technique would be - especially given how likely they are to snag. Are you enthralled by this look, and would you risk wearing it just to do something so fashion-forward? Or would you give this style a pass?

Alexis Bledel in Cutout Cushnie Et Ochs: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 13:00:22 PDT

No one can argue Alexis Bledel is a serious cutie. She stepped up her style at the Tribeca Film Festival in a cutout Cushnie et Ochs LBD. The cutouts are subtle enough and this look is far from tarty. Her swirly black embroidered Sergio Rossi sandals also provide a peekaboo illusion. Pulled-back hair, modern Sasha Primak jewelry, and a black clutch keep all eyes on those cutouts. What do you think - does Alexis pull it off?
