FabSugar — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 17:53:22 -0800

Leave it to Rihanna to bring on the drama. She's a standout in this black and white laser cutout gown by Marchesa. It's revealing, but not too much, and her white shoes add further contrast. Another winner for Rihanna?

Which Gorgeous GQ Attendee Is Most Fab?

FabSugar — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 16:00:22 -0800

The GQ's Men of the Year Awards wouldn't be complete without an entourage of Hollywood hotties. That's where Jennifer Carpenter, Jessica Stroup, and Emma Stone come into play. While Jennifer, Jessica, and Emma chose a bodacious black palette, Olivia Wilde and January Jones dazzled in Winter white. They all look amazing, but which one captures the twinkle in your eye?

Who Wore It Better? Cobalt Silk Marchesa Mini

FabSugar — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 15:00:22 -0800

It's stiff competition when it's between the model-like designer of the dress and an actual model. Alas, we must decide. Both beauties wore this cobalt strapless silk wool dress with draped bodice and kept everything to a minimum, to let the dress shine. Stunning earrings were adorned by both, as well as neutral pumps - though Jacquetta's sandals have a slight gold sheen. We don't witness Georgina's handbag, but Jacquetta's embellished gunmetal Marchesa clutch looks pretty cool. Who wore it best?

Blake Lively in Bow-tiful Marchesa: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 12:00:22 -0800

It's clear by now: Blake Lively loves low-cut. At the NYC premiere of her latest flick, The Private Lives of Pippa Lee, the actress wore one of the most plunging tops she's worn in a while. But, the long sleeves of the Marchesa jacket, as well as that big whimsical bow, keep her from being too risque. Black shorts show off her long stems and white pumps bring the look full circle. Do you fancy it?

Who Wore It Better? White, Feathery Marchesa

FabSugar — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 13:00:22 -0800

Camilla Belle and Katy Perry's styles couldn't be more different, but clearly the two have a shared love for white, feathery Marchesa. Camilla first wore this gorgeous piece from the Spring '10 line at an event in LA a couple weeks ago. She paired it with strappy black sandals and sparkly jewels. Then Katy sported the same fancy frock onstage at the 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards in Germany with a pair of sequined pumps. Both look like delicate swans, but who wore Marchesa better?

The host of the 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards Katy Perry is the first to hit the red carpet this evening. She has opted for a pale pink one shoulder Marchesa gown with floral applique and fish tail detailing. What do you think of the first of Katy's outfits?

Trend Alert: Big Blooms

FabSugar — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 14:00:22 -0800

It's time to scout your holiday dress of the season, and how can you resist the sweet smell of big blooms? Leighton sparkled in this blue, brush-painted rose silk bow front dress with patent belt by Prabal Gurung. If feminine and frilly is your thing, this is your lucky season. Oversize rosettes and flower motifs are not only in style, but quite classic, endlessly pretty. I say go dramatic or go home; I'm sure Leighton would second my emotion.

Which Marchesa Was Most Fab at the Music Unites Fall Masquerade Gala?

FabSugar — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 03:50:22 -0800

Last week at the Music Unites Fall Masquerade Gala, Kerry Washington and Georgina Chapman wore pretty, poufy frocks from Georgina's coveted Marchesa line. Both dresses were white, but notice how the two styles varied in texture. Kerry's tulle embellishment and streamlined shape gave a more architectural appeal, while Georgina's feathered creation emoted flirty, flapper energy. Both beauties accessorized with sleek black clutches and matching pumps. This one's a toughie: do you prefer the designer or the celebrity?

I Want This Wardrobe: Serena van der Woodsen

FabSugar — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 17:15:22 -0700

Tonight's Gossip Girl is going to be full of surprises. Rufus and Lily are getting married, but will their special day be ruined by Georgina's evil plan? While we wait for the drama, let's examine Serena's beautiful party attire. Smart of the Upper East-Sider to complement her dark teal chiffon gown with purple patent heels. It adds a spunky twist to her ethereal ensemble, and I like how she furthered her funk with studded bangles. Appropriate, yet Serena scintillating.
