The Office's Jenna Fischer chose a cool blue studded Collette Dinnigan gown that is pretty but doesn't necessarily stand out. I'll give it to her that the hue matches perfectly with her warm brown updo. Do you love it or hate it?

Fab Flash: Collette Dinnigan Resort Collection

FabSugar — Fri, 11 May 2007 16:10:22 PDT

A slew of models were at the Sydney Airport recently, but this time, they weren't there to catch a flight to a fashion show, because the catwalk was already there waiting for them at the Qantas First Lounge. Australian designer Collette Dinnigan showed off her latest Resort collection at the first-class lounge and some gorgeous swimwear, nautical-inspired and ruffle pieces were showcased.

You may be wondering why Collette chose the Sydney airport as her venue. Turns out, the creative director of the airlines, Marc Newsom, is her good friend. This was the first time in two years that Collette showed her collection in her hometown.

Even Off Screen, Lily Collins's Fairy-Tale Dresses Make Us Swoon - Shop the Look

Hannah Weil — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 10:27:59 PDT

As the newly released Mirror, Mirror's Snow White, we expected a princess-inspired transformation on screen - but Lily Collins's fairy-tale red-carpet confections have us seeking the same ultrafemme dressing for our own real-life wardrobes. Her latest appearances are a lesson in the prettiest kind of styling, channeling a call to romance and femininity that's both a reflection of the film and, incidentally, right on the mark as far as Spring trends are concerned. For the movie's premiere, Lily opted for a strapless full-skirted Dolce & Gabbana dress that made us swoon with all its comely detail - we suspect it's exactly what any modern-day fairy-tale princess would choose should she find herself on a red carpet. Making the argument for the same intricate lace, albeit on a more casual scale, Lily selected two brilliant blue lace sheaths - a Collette Dinnigan for an event this week in NYC, and a sweet fit-and-flare sheath for the Clinton Foundation's Decade of Difference Gala last October. With each, Lily emotes the loveliest kind of glamour that makes us think: we want to look like that. You too? Just shop our editors' picks to channel the same ultrapretty style.

Miranda Kerr Gets in on Award Season Down Under

Allie Merriam — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 06:28:45 PST

Miranda Kerr had a busy evening in Sydney last night, arriving at the city's Opera House in a minidress, paired with a Burberry bag, before changing into a long Collette Dinnigan gown for the AACTA Awards. Miranda, her husband Orlando Bloom, and their son Flynn Bloom arrived down under on Saturday, and have spent the last few days catching up with their Kerr relatives. Miranda broke from the family time, though, to start yesterday morning at a shoot for British Vogue. Miranda Kerr wore a bikini for the cameras, and gamely spent her morning posing out on a boat.

It was the first-ever AACTA Awards, which honored Australian arts. Miranda tweeted that the event had been "a wonderful night for Australian film and television!" Her fellow famous Aussie Cate Blanchett went out to support the launch as well, wearing a gorgeous gold McQueen dress.

Kate and William Attend a Friend's Wedding With Pippa and Alex!

The Middleton sisters, Kate and Pippa, had a double date of sorts over the weekend when they both brought their significant others along to a friend's wedding! Their mutual friends, Thomas Sutton and Harriet Colthurst, were the latest to tie the knot, and their ceremony took place at the St. Mary and St. Nicholas Church in the English town of Wilton. Prince William arrived before Kate, as he was an usher during the proceedings. Pippa, meanwhile, entered alongside her boyfriend, Alex Loudon. For the event, Pippa was decked out in a printed dress from Project D and Kate wore a red lace Collette Dinnigan number. It's been nearly five months since Kate and William tied the knot themselves, and he recently revealed previously unknown details about their big day. In an interview for a book about his grandmother, the queen, William spoke about their lengthy guest list, his own outfit on April 29, and more. William said:

On who he was supposed to invite to his and Kate's wedding: "I came into the first meeting for the wedding, postengagement, and I was given this official list of 777 names - dignitaries, governors, all sorts of people - and not one person I knew. . . . [Royal officials] said, 'These are the people we should invite.' I looked at it in absolute horror and said, 'I think we should start again.' . . . I rang [the queen] up the next day and said, 'Do we need to be doing this?' And she said, 'No. Start with your friends first and then go from there.' And she told me to bin the list. She made the point that there are certain times when you have to strike the right balance. And it’s advice like that, which is really key, when you know that she’s seen and done it before."
On the queen instructing him to wear his Irish Guards uniform, his highest post, on the big day: "I wanted to decide what to wear for the wedding. I was given a categorical, 'No, you’ll wear this!' . . . So you don’t always get what you want, put it that way. But I knew perfectly well that it was for the best. That 'no' is a very good 'no.' So you just do as you’re told!"
On his relationship with the queen: "My relationship with my grandmother has gone from strength to strength. As a shy, younger man, it could be harder to talk about weighty matters. It was, 'This is my grandmother who is the queen, and these are serious historical subjects.' As I’ve got older, she’s become an even more important part of my life, so it’s much easier. And obviously, with the wedding, she was a massive help."
On his own thoughts of one day being king: "I try not to think about it, to be honest. As I’m flying along in my helicopter through the mountains of Wales, I try desperately hard not to think about it. That can wait until I’m a bit older."

Miranda Kerr Hits the Runway For David Jones in a Tiny Swimsuit!

Allie Merriam — Wed, 03 Aug 2011 16:08:47 PDT

Miranda Kerr wore a swimsuit and a smile this afternoon when she hit the runway for Australian retailer David Jones in Sydney. She modeled a variety of outfits that will be available in its stores, including pieces from Aussie designers Collette Dinnigan, Camilla Franks, and Alex Perry. Her cutout one-piece was by the company Jets. Miranda changed into a white lace dress for the afterparty held at the city's Royal Hall of Industries. David Jones is keeping Miranda busy during her time Down Under between an in-store appearance and photo shoots. Today's catwalk appearance was Miranda's first since welcoming her son Flynn in January. Miranda said of her return to the runway in the Bond girl-esque suit, "I am a little nervous about getting back on the runway after just having a baby seven months ago in a swimsuit. But you know, I have been doing my squats, and I started Pilates as well as my usual yoga routine." Orlando Bloom watched Miranda prep for the show, but he wasn't able to stay for the actual event as he flew to New Zealand to start work on the next Lord of the Rings.
