Kate Bosworth's Fall-Worthy LWD

Hannah Weil — Tue, 06 Sep 2011 10:17:07 PDT

Kate Bosworth stepped out for the Deauville Film Festival in a gorgeous little white Chanel dress. Initially awestruck with the red-carpet beauty, our second thought was how do we get that look? - that look being the perfect way to execute the LWD for Fall. Kate's rendition is flawless, and with a few key style elements, you can master the same elegant take on the white dress for Fall.

Look for white dresses with elements that complement colder weather, like thicker fabrics in tweeds or heavier knits, and long or 3/4-length sleeves, especially if you opt to go without tights.
A white dress in a sheerer or breezier fabric can work when it's paired with warmer elements, like black opaque tights and a dark blazer or jacket to balance the lighter, summery vibe.
If like Kate, you choose an LWD for a dressier occasion, look for delicate embellishments, like pearls.

Hello, stunner. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley chose a white Max Mara dress for the Maxim 100 party, going for a minimalist look with an ultrasexy, cut-out and open back. She paired it with a leopard clutch and Sergio Rossi shoes, and softened up the entire look by keeping her hair long and flowy. We've seen an increase in white dresses on the red carpet, the surest sign - along with later sunsets - that Summer is coming. Rosie's look is so crisp, clean, and elegantly sexy that we're showing it from all angles. Click the slideshow to see each one.

Glamlatte strolled down the boardwalk wearing a saucy ensemble. Her white dress, black cardi, and matching tights look slick on their own, but notice how she spiced up her palette with fun accessories. Her peachy keen scarf and taupe booties inject the perfect pop of color.

Trend Alert: The LWD

FabSugar — Wed, 16 May 2007 10:03:33 PDT

White is in the air, and beyond. It all started when we were struck by white lightening, and then there were the white accessories, white shades, and just an overall influx of white. So it's no surprise that as the weather heats up, the celebs are looking heavenly in dresses of this hue. The versatility of a LWD is profound: one can either look inappropriately like a 6-year-old or one can look like a sophisticated woman. I would recommend the latter, and stick to styles that are either minimal or retro - to avoid looking like Alice in Wonderland.
