amfAR's Cinema Against AIDS: Diane Kruger
I oft talk about my love of the '20s flapper era and Diane is the epitome of that time at the amFAR event at the Cannes Film Festival. From her sleek hair down to her shoes, she's perfection in my eyes. The whisper sequins and train are such lovely details.
eBay Find of the Week
I have a Great Gatsby-esque cloche hat that I've been wearing all Winter. If you don't have one in your closet yet, try one out, like this Bloomingdales Wool Cloche Hat. It's similar to the one Diane Kruger wore recently at a New Year's party.
Trend Alert: The Roaring '20s
Queen of the red carpet, Diane Kruger, continues to inspire. Of all the New Year's parties that went down, this looks like the most Fab one. Soho Grand's "Great Gatsby" was the place to be — beads, bubbly and babes for everyone!
Milan Fashion Week, Spring 2008: Roberto Cavalli
A few feather-clad pieces in this Spring collection were very Roberto Cavalli, but surprisingly, the majority were not. I'm glad to see Cavalli expanding his repertoire to include sweet gals, not just wild things. For the latter, the feather trench coats, vests and pants will satiate their sassy appetite.
Name-That-Designer!
Welcome to a new Fab feature I'm sure will both inspire and educate! After seeing some glimpses of what's to come for Fall, I think you're all ready to play Name-That-Designer! All these looks are from the Fall RTW shows and the answers will be revealed this Saturday.
Trend Alert: The Great Gatsby
Here is my ode to The Great Gatsby. Fashion is experiencing a throwback to the times of art deco, pleats, beading, speak-easies, and the Belle Epoque. Legendary designer Paul Poiret has been referenced and you can see his dropped hemline and flapper hats in a major way in the Proenza Schouler Fall 2007 collection.

Trend Alert: Flapper Fringe
Just when you think fringe has peaked its potential, designers come out with a thinner winner. Flapper fringe gives off a jazzy vibe, unlike its thicker, more bohemian sister. I actually own a black La Rok top similar to this 3.1 Phillip Lim Fringed Boat Neck Tunic ($695).
Which Marchesa Was Most Fab at the Music Unites Fall Masquerade Gala?
Last week at the Music Unites Fall Masquerade Gala, Kerry Washington and Georgina Chapman wore pretty, poufy frocks from Georgina's coveted Marchesa line. Both dresses were white, but notice how the two styles varied in texture. Kerry's tulle embellishment and streamlined shape gave a more architectural appeal, while Georgina's feathered creation emoted flirty, flapper energy.
Battle of The Hills Costumes: Flirty Flapper vs. Little Red Riding Hood
The Halloween fun does not stop for me when the Fab holiday is over. Au contraire. Last year we had Lauren and then-BF Audrina battle out their costumes.
