FabSugar — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 16:28:22 PST

We've been anxiously waiting for Rooney Mara to arrive - after all, the stunner is single-handedly spearheading a return to dark, moody glamour on the red carpet. The star of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo looks sleek and romantic in a black cutout gown from Nina Ricci's Pre-Fall 2012 collection, which she paired with a sleek ponytail and thick black eyeliner. We're loving Rooney's simple yet sexy look. What do you think?

Nina Ricci Spring 2012

FabSugar — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 16:20:14 PDT

All the romance and delicacy of Nina Ricci was present for Spring 2012, with a healthy dose of overt flirtation added in. Slim dresses were dolled up with soft ruffles, drape, and pretty florals; floaty peplum tops, peeking from tailored cropped jackets, danced above miniskirts; and then there was lingerie. Designer Peter Copping had played with lingerie themes in his Resort collection; here it was taken a new level: models walked the runway in pretty bras, some underneath jackets, others simply with a swingy skirt. Slipdresses of silk and lace seemed cut apart and stitched back together. It was playful and seductive, but most importantly it was pretty.

Trends: ladylike, boudoir, lingerie, florals.
Colors: pink, white, black, lavender, blue.
Key Look: the lace and silk slipdresses, the floral prints that came from the Nina Ricci archive.
Accessories: minimal platform sandals, stilettos.
Who Would Wear It: feminine, polished girls - Cameron Diaz, Nicole Kidman, Jen Aniston.

2011 Fall Paris Fashion Week: Nina Ricci

Hannah Weil — Fri, 04 Mar 2011 13:31:08 PST

Nina Ricci indulges our romantic side for Fall '11. As always, the collection speaks to the epitome of femininity in the form of delicate fabrics - lace details and embellishments on headbands and collars - silhouettes that hug at the waist and float at the hips, and a rich color palette that's at first dramatic and then deliciously flirtatious. There is a more mature, womanly side that comes to life in burgundy and black, long gloves, deep floral print on sheer, fluid fabrics, and velvet pants. Then we get the perfectly ladylike wear - thick coats and jackets cinched with skinny chain belts and paired with tights, platforms, and gloves. Of course, there is also that playful bit of romance that surfaces in bubblegum pink and baby blues on a full-length gown that's as elegant as it is sweet.

Trends: Lace, sheer, velvet, ladylike dressing.

Colors: Black, burgundy, baby blue, pink.

Key Looks: Embellished black and metallic lace top and pink skirt; floral-print sheer black gown and burgundy gloves.

Accessories: Hats, lace-up, fur-trimmed heels, gloves, chain belts, embellished headbands.

Who Would Wear It: The romantic with a flair for drama and luxe.

Half-up styles are both lovely and often overcomplicated, which is why we were elated at the sight of this pretty, easy half-bouffant at the Nina Ricci show. Guido, the show's hair creative consultant, says he was "inspired by the '60s, actresses like Brigitte Bardot or a little like a woman in a David Hamilton photo." For a breakdown on how to style the look, just keep reading.
