Olga Kurylenko, Lady in Red Valentino: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 07:23:22 -0700

Ukranian beauty Olga Kurylenko has been MIA for a while, but she's back, and bolder than ever. At the 2010 Campari Calendar cocktail party in Milan, the actress showed up in a can't-miss-it red Valentino couture gown that perfectly matched the red carpet. Up top she's fully covered in a turtleneck and long sleeves, but she's showing a bit of leg and thigh in a high slit. She's way more covered than she has to be, but if you look back on previous looks, her gutsy nature is no shock. What do you think of this lady in a lot of red?

2010 Spring New York Fashion Week: Phillip Lim

FabSugar — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 18:15:59 -0700

When the runway is red and the invite has a threaded red stripe through it, does that promise a red-hot collection? When it's Phillip Lim it does. As expected, Lim's first couple looks were red - a lipstick-red double-breasted shirt jacket and roll-down waist pants, a slick red rain trench, red crystal sunglasses (have to have those). But Lim knows you can have too much of a good thing and quickly switched to cool gray knits and his favorite tomboyish shorts, cardis, and button downs.

Unordinary details like "illusion" bow fasteners, embellished belts, and collaged textures separated Lim from the rest. And then came the sparkle. Bronze and silver sequin panels on accordion pleat dresses and a straight-up silver sequin shirt dress surely sent front rowers Lauren Conrad and Leighton Meester's hearts aflutter. And the finale dress, on death-staring Karlie Kloss: ivory lace tiered "compilation" dress with abstract cubist sculptural organza appliqué. The mirrors at the entrance of the runway made Karlie appear to be strutting through the looking glass . . .

Is Penelope Red Overkill?

FabSugar — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 15:00:22 -0700

Here is Penelope Cruz in head-to-toe red Bottega Veneta, on the red carpet, at the London premiere of Broken Embraces. Before we judge, let's discuss. The actress is clearly in love with red, which we know is going to be a huge color for Fall. She's wearing an oversized Bottega Veneta red blazer over a red tank, red trousers, a red belt, and standing on a matching red carpet. The only things that aren't red are her T-strap sandals, her jewels, and lips! Is this too much of a good thing?

Trend Alert: Red Hot

FabSugar — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 07:50:22 -0700

Is it just me or is it red hot in here? I'm not opposed to donning a LRD but I prefer to take the alternate route with red accessories. They're ultra sexy, ultra sassy, and not so in-your-face. I don't need to tell you why this Christian Louboutin Glittered Platform Pump ($775) is scorching hot. All I need to do now is tap my heels three times for all my fashion wishes to come true.

Celebrity Style: Marisa Tomei

FabSugar — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 11:00:22 -0700

Marisa Tomei was snapped looking incredibly chic on her way to dinner at STK restaurant in LA. Her red trench - collar slightly popped - textured black pants, and peep-toe black patent booties are perfect together. The gunmetal clutch tucked under her arm and gold necklace provide shine without stealing the show. But really, Marisa's look is a testament to how a trench, especially in a bold color, can instantly jazz up any look. Now we know the actress's thoughts on red.
