Marchesa Designer Georgina Chapman and Jacquetta Wheeler Wear Same Blue Marchesa Dress 2009-11-17 15:00:22

It's stiff competition when it's between the model-like designer of the dress and an actual model. Alas, we must decide. Both beauties wore this cobalt strapless silk wool dress with draped bodice and kept everything to a minimum, to let the dress shine. Stunning earrings were adorned by both, as well as neutral pumps — though Jacquetta's sandals have a slight gold sheen. We don't witness Read more

Anthropologie Fall Catalog, November 2009

Anthropologie's November catalog is a surefire way to get in the holiday spirit. British model Jacquetta Wheeler — dressed in everything from pretty lace to cozy sweaters — is seen frolicking in (faux) snow. It's all so romantic. I can't help but be consumed by the impressive styling, and I'm sure CasaSugar is mesmerized by the rustic scene. Granted, not everyone wears shorts in the snow, but Read more

Fab Faces Through the Years

While researching for Ungaro's fashion metamorphosis, I delved into the New York Fashion Week archives. So fun! One thing that occurred to me was how young and innocent today's models were back in the early '90s. Well, duh, they were younger and more innocent, so it's not an earth-shattering revelation. Still, I thought it would be fun to lead you through the transformations of some of today's Read more

Blonde Parade at Young Collectors Council Ball

Some hot young blondes came out in NYC last night for the Guggenheim Young Collectors Council Artist's Ball hosted by Chloe. Blake Lively looked great, as usual, helping Chace fill our Gossip Girl fix for this rerun week. One half of your favorite platonic TV duo of the year, Becki Newton looked hot other than those boots. Fab's got the look for you (with a better choice of footwear). Meanwhile, Read more

Who Wore It Better? Chloe Crystal Cap Sleeve Mini Dress

It boggles my mind when one girl spends an exorbitant amount of money on a ho-um dress. Then, two girls wear the aforementioned dress and it just makes me throw my hands up in the air and pray to the fashion gods. Such is the case with this Chloe crystal mini dress. It looks like a volcano exploded and dispersed blobs of crystals all around, expensive crystals. It's not my taste, but obviously Read more

Models That Look Like . . . Animals?

Models That Look Like . . . Animals?

I've always had a real talent for likening people to animals so it was only a matter of time until "It" models became my victims. My first prey: Jessica Stam, whose cat-like eyes make her look like she's a part of the feline family (in this case, a lioness). That connection is pretty obvious. Not so obvious, and funny, are my other victims, Shalom Harlow, Coco Rocha, Stella Tennant, Jacquetta Read more

Miu Miu Runway Fall 2012

With a star-studded front row in attendance — Marc Jacobs, Katy Perry, and Kate Mara to name a few — Miuccia Prada sent a myriad of menswear-inspired suits down Miu Miu's Fall 2012 runway. The tailored looks got a whimsical kick via colorful hexagonal patterns, wide stripes, retro tapestry, flashy plaid prints, and ultrabejeweled embellishments. Add to the mix an all-star lineup of models, Read more
