The Look For Less: Nicole's Psychedelic Pucci Dress

FabSugar — Wed, 22 Aug 2007 09:00:22 -0700

Looks like Nicole Richie's Emilio Pucci Sleeveless High-Neck Dress, $1,070, was a hit! It's not surprising given the uniqueness of the dress and of course, your great taste! Too bad paying over a grand for a frock is not in our near-future plans. Alas, we scoured the net for an alternative with a similar feel - hope you dig it!

When I ran into this Arden B. Scarf Print Trapeze Dress, $138, it reminded me a lot of Nicole's Pucci dress for several reasons. First, it has the same high-neck. Next, both prints are psychedelic and fun. Finally, they are both highlighted by blue undertones. They're by no means identical, but the Arden B. version conveys a similar look and feel. And it'll save you a whole lotta dough!

The daring magda_ooo was feeling psychedelic. If you're going to go groovy, go all the way. I love how she accessorized her swirly maxi dress with a hippie headband. You can't see them, but she has on gladiators to finish off her hippie-inspired look.

Here's what she has on:

Dress: Terranova
Headband: Bijou Brigitte
Gladiators: Unknown

Congrats to magda_ooo!

Drew Barrymore in Cobweb McQueen: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 18:00:08 -0700

Drew Barrymore is no stranger to extreme, psychedelic fashion. For the Whip It premiere at the Toronto Film Festival, the quirky actress donned a black and yellow webbed creation from Alexander McQueen and peep-toe heels from Casadei - notice how they complement her new black tips! The color is cheerful, like Drew, and the webbing detail is totally unique. It takes a certain personality to pull off McQueen's eccentric creations, do you think she succeeded?

Found! Nicole's Psychedelic Maternity Dress

FabSugar — Thu, 16 Aug 2007 12:00:22 -0700

At first I was a skeptic about Nicole being pregnant. But then we started to see the bump and now, she is a full-on poster girl for high-fashion maternity wear. I am a believer. So I've been swayed by her fashion choices of late, you all know I am a sucker for style. Speaking of, wherever there's Pucci there's a party. In this case, there's a party on the sidewalk with this Emilio Pucci sleeveless High-Neck Dress, $1,070. Nicole's Willy Wonka Chanel sunnies add some comic relief - funny and fabulous.

2010 Miami Swim: Mara Hoffman

FabSugar — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 13:00:22 -0700

If there's one designer whose prints put me in a tizzy, it's Mara Hoffman. And when Mara ventured into swimwear last year it made complete sense - her exotic aesthetic perfectly translates to the beach. Her show at Miami swim, where Whitney Port attended in an adorable op-art print dress, was beyond sizzling. Cuts were experimental and prints were psychedelic. Fun details like neon fringe, chain belts, turbans, cut outs, and braids kept things interesting. Not to be overlooked are flowy, sexy caftans and cover-ups, in funky tribal prints. Colors spanned the spectrum. How you feeling? Hot, hot, hot.

FabSugar — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 09:00:22 -0700

These Ilaria Nistri Drawstring Print Pants ($525) put me in a trance real quick. I feel like if I stare at them long enough I'll get hypnotized. Snap out of it, Fab! The rich teal hue and the psychedelic swirls are super cool, but I'm not sure if I could pull these off. Too trippy. Do you love or hate?

Look Book Love: Pucci's Summer Lovin'

FabSugar — Wed, 20 May 2009 05:50:22 -0700

Pucci was born to be wild. Even the name is fun to say. Matthew Williamson has since departed the house, but what he left was a sizzling Summer collection. Green and blue psychedelic prints abound, with the occasional flirtatious burst of pink. Then there's the one technicolor surprise that has already inspired a party outfit. All these worn by one flexible model has me wondering: Is it Summer yet?
