Primetime Emmy Awards: Old Hollywood Glamour

FabSugar — Sun, 16 Sep 2007 22:57:23 -0700

There's a reason these lovely actresses traveled back in time for their Emmy fashion inspiration: because a gal can never go wrong with some Old Hollywood Glamour. Marcia Cross, Katherine Heigl, Kate Walsh, Heidi Klum, Jaime Pressly and Rebecca Romijn all went the glam route, but they each took very different roads to get there. Marcia, Katherine and Rebecca went simple and chic with neutral hues, while Heidi and Kate went va-va-voom in red. Jamie took the road less traveled with a black swirly sequins. But in the end, all roads led to Hollywood!

2009 Fall Couture: Jean Paul Gaultier

FabSugar — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 03:50:22 -0700

Judging from Jean Paul Gaultier's Fall couture creations, he didn't have a shortage of inspiration. The powerful warrior princess, the chic '20s flapper, the old-Hollywood actress, and the feisty futuristic goddess all had a place on the catwalk . . . and in JPG's eyes, they all prevail. Exquisite gowns set a glamorous tone: some with floor-length capes attached to them, some robe-like, and some chiffon with armor-like bodices. Fur played a big part - fur collars, coats, chubbies, and skirts made appearances. And what's luxury without beading? It showed up in the most unique ways, my favorite being the fine gold beaded overalls Kim Noorda rocked. Color didn't play a big part, but there were random bouts of rich purple, yellow, pink, and brown.

Step into Jean Paul Gaultier's universe.

We couldn't leave you this week without some of Cannes's hottest red carpet looks. Eva Longoria exuded ultimate glamour wearing an icy blue Versace gown embellished with intricate silver beading; Elizabeth Banks gave off an old-school Hollywood vibe in her red-hot Armani Prive frock; and Abbie Cornish wowed in a dramatic, one-shoulder lavender ruffled gown. This one's a toughie - I love them all. Tell me, which star took the spotlight?

Model Mania at Met's Costume Institute Gala!

FabSugar — Tue, 05 May 2009 11:29:43 -0700

Models are always welcomed at Met's Costume Institute Gala, but since last night's exhibit was all about them, they felt way more at home. Current models like Hana Soukupova, Coco Rocha, and Isabeli Fontana mixed and mingled with classics like Stella Tennant, Alek Wek, and Maggie Rizer, as well as old-school Supers Amber Valletta, Kristen McMenamy, and Nadja Auermann (left). It was a site to be seen; one that melted my heart. Every one of them ruled, and one young blond model even came on the arm of a Hollywood actor! Let the model mania begin . . .

FabSugar — Fri, 17 Apr 2009 15:50:22 -0700

The much-anticipated Grey Gardens is premiering Saturday night on HBO - are you gonna watch?! Drew Barrymore channeled her stylish, inner "Little Edie" during her promotion circuit this week wearing an abundance of sensational ensembles. The adorable actress showed off her experimental side in a flattering striped dress by Narciso Rodriguez; old Hollywood glamour in an Alberta Ferretti nude gown; bohemian chic in a white, '60s-inspired frock by Andrew GN; and avant-garde appeal in a dramatic Giambattista Valli creation. I know my favorite Drew look, which is yours?

Chris Benz Ostrich Feather Collar: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 05:00:22 -0700

When I think of ostrich feathers, I think major glamour. When I look at this Chris Benz Ostrich Feather Collar ($275) I see glamour, in the most over-the-top way. I personally wouldn't wear it, but it could work for someone who seeks the Old Hollywood touch. For me, the grenadine color isn't the most flattering and I don't like that the feathers are so close to the face. What's your opinion?

Fab Blab: Hollywood Girls Talk Recession Shopping

FabSugar — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 13:00:22 -0800

There's no denying the current economic crisis. That said, I've been trying my best to save money and cut back on everything - even shopping. Times like these make me envy the lifestyles of the rich and famous, but even they aren't immune to this problem. At New York Fashion Week, Hollywood girls Michelle Trachtenberg, Jessica Stroup, and Nicky Hilton dished on how they've been cutting back on their spending habits.

Michelle Trachtenberg

Michelle likes to mix H&M and Target into her wardrobe. “I have always kept in mind that my fans are teenagers and they don’t have a lot of money to spend. They like to get looks for less.”

Jessica Stroup

Jessica claims she has “always been a bit frugal.” The actress likes to reinvent her old pieces and is always on the lookout for sales.

Nicky Hilton

Even the heiress is getting more money savvy. “I’m being smarter about my spending. I’m not going into stores and buying anything. I am buying more pieces instead of just a bunch of clothes.”

Golden Globe Awards: Drew Barrymore

Is that Drew Barrymore or an old-time Hollywood starlet? The actress traded her rocker tees for a more refined look in this dusty blue fallen-shoulder Dior gown. The sheer overlay provides some bounce, as does her va-va-voom hair. She added dazzle via a diamond bracelet and jeweled earrings. What's your verdict?
