Countdown to a Fabulous New Year's! Go Glam à la Holly Golightly

Brittney Stephens — Thu, 23 Dec 2010 10:15:05 PST

With only eight days to go until New Year's Eve, I thought it fitting to pay homage to the quintessential party girl and ladylike legend, Holly Golightly. The iconic image of Miss G enjoying coffee and a croissant while gazing into Tiffany's is permanently ingrained in my head. Holly was the ultimate glamorous girl-about-town, and she always dressed the part. Get her glam look with a long black sheath dress ($80), shiny kitten heels, and elbow-length gloves. Make the look modern with a crystal headband and sequin clutch - and don't forget the pearls.

Nicky Hilton's holiday shopping 'fit is flawless. While strolling the streets of LA, the pretty lady donned a structured leopard print coat with lusty Christian Louboutin Babel platform boots. Black leggings, Ray-Bans, and pleated Valentino bag are her accompaniments of choice. So fine-tuned and foxy.

Ashley Greene joined fellow celebs at the Tim Burton exhibition at MoMA - lucky! - looking quite fine in a D&G ensemble. Her outfit might look like a plain lace LBD at first glace, but look closer. The New Moon actress paired her decadent lace skirt with a shimmery sheer top and peekaboo bra. For extra spice, she accessorized with a cute ribbon belt and sophisticated pair of lace pumps. Striking.

Fab Flash: Rachel Bilson Does DKNY Jeans

FabSugar — Thu, 13 Mar 2008 10:07:03 PDT

Last week it was Avril Lavigne, and this week it's Rachel Bilson joining the celebrity designer foray.

Rachel contacted DKNY Jeans to express an interest in working with them, and that's how her junior sportswear line, Edie Rose for DKNY Jeans, came about. The collection will include 15 pieces when it launches in September, including button-down tops, sweaters, jackets, tees, dresses, and dark wash jeans in a black, white, and yellow color palette.

Rachel seems dedicated to her designs: "This line is my main focus right now," she said. "I can't draw at all, so I won't be doing any sketches, but I am learning to sew. I think it's important to know more about the whole process of making clothes."

She named the line for her grandmother Edie, and Rose, a close family friend, because she didn't want to use her own name: "I want people to see these clothes for what they are, not just another line designed by another celebrity," she said. "I want the line to be taken seriously." From these first looks, will you be taking it seriously?

On Our Radar: Lord & Taylor Going Strong

FabSugar — Mon, 10 Dec 2007 03:22:22 PST

Everyone from Gap to Target to H&M have recruited major designers to create less expensive lines for their brand, so what's stopping Lord & Taylor? Nothing. The department store tapped Tuleh (left) designer Bryan Bradley to create an exclusive line called Bryan by Bryan Bradley in April and the feminine and affordable pieces have already hit stores.

Cynthia Steffe and Charles Nolan are also part of the Lord & Taylor family; Cynthia is designing for the accessories department, while Charles offers affordable and chic clothes. Rumor also has it that the next designer collaboration may be with Peter Som. Fingers and toes crossed.

Zac Posen Talks '90s Fashion, Love of Math, and His Perfect NYC Day

Hannah Weil — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 09:26:37 PDT

Last night we flocked to NYC's Lord & Taylor store for the launch of Zac Posen's exclusive Z Spoke dress line. Somewhere along the way talk turned from his new capsule collection to '90s fashion, favorite NYC spots, and where you might find Zac if he wasn't designing. Read on for five things you probably didn't know about the ever-charming Zac Posen.

Zac on the return of '90s fashion and his own '90s look: "There are a lot of designers who come to New York in search of a Patti Smith/Lou Reed moment in their life. For me it's so funny when I see designers romanticizing the '90s because it really never looked that cool, and now it's back in a big way. What I do think is relevant stylistically from the '90s is youth and social consciousness and now that's social media, which we didn't have then - that unity of voices. It's fun to have seen that and witnessed that and I definitely had my crazy '90s outfits. [When] I grew up my idea of designer clothing, or what was maybe accessible to me to purchase on a birthday, was Century 21. The best pieces from Gaultier at the time, amazing pieces of Jean Colonna, amazing early Tom Ford, amazing early McQueen pieces, and great Vivienne Westwood clothing. I definitely had this idea - part punk, part nymph. I wore leather vines in my hair and feathers pinned in [with] sailor pants, and I would beg to have a Daryl K jacket."

Ivanka Trump Stages a Runway Show For Her New Clothing Collection - See the Best Looks

Chi Diem Chau — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 11:19:06 PDT

Up until now, Ivanka Trump's fashion collection only included shoes, jewelry, and handbags. But last night, the gorgeous powerhouse debuted her first ready-to-wear clothing collection, now available online, at Lord & Taylor in NYC. One look at the collection and you can see that Ivanka designed a collection similar to her own style: chic, modern, and ladylike; an aesthetic similar to some of her favorite fashion designers. "The people I always seem to admire are the Oscar de la Rentas; of the younger generation, the Jason Wus - people who really understand how to make a woman look pretty without diminishing her," said Ivanka. "You know, powerful pretty." That said, Ivanka sent models down the runway in a flurry of 9-to-5-appropriate printed dresses, sharp tailored coats, and sleek blazers. We especially loved the blue watercolor printed dress and sharp white patent-trimmed trenchcoat. Check out more top looks from Ivanka Trump's runway show, then tell us what you think in the comments section below.
