But enough of that foofaraw, let's rip some dresses.
Poodles, we know we've been spending a lot of time Joaning and Melissa-ing all over the red carpet, but we can't help it. It's a great way to check in on all things and people PR-related, a great way to talk about what people are wearing, and a great way for all of us to sharpen our claws for PR seasons to come. Admit it. You've all been bringing your bitchery A game, haven't you? Those poor S5 designers don't have a chance.
Anyway.
Francisco Costa and Eva Mendes wearing Francisco Costa for Calvin Klein
Enh. We think one can find beautiful, understated clothing under the Calvin Klein label, but it doesn't always make for "event" clothing. This is just too understated for the venue.
Victoria Beckham in Marc Jacobs head to toe.
Little hearts pop around our heads every time we look at Posh now. We can't help it. We love her. She dresses like a little girl pretending to be a drag queen. The shoes were designed specially for her. This bitch is gonna be in a wheel chair by the time she's forty.
But she will be IMMORTALLY FABULOUS in the hearts of gay men everywhere.
Zac Posen
We almost get it. It has a nice retro-casual vibe to it, but those Ethel Mertz sleeves are a dealbreaker. Besides, that jacket doesn't look particularly well-fitted.
Still. That boy gives good face.
Lauren Hutton in Francisco Costa for Calvin Klein Spring 2008 Collection
The bitch looks fantastic. That's how you do age-appropriate clothes and still look stylish and beautiful. She's 65, people. She probably could've used some more support for her girls and some serum for that hair, though.
What? We admit we're bitches.
Michael Kors and Hilary Duff in MK
She looks cute. The silhouette's a little grown-up sophisticated, but the color's young and looks great on her.
Paula Patton in Michael Kors Spring 2008 Collection
Not a terrible dress, but she's not really selling it. We don't think it's doing anything for her figure, either.
Vera Wang
Oh, what the fuck.
What is WRONG with her?
Diane von Furstenberg
We're swooning. She looks spectacular.
Eva Longoria Parker in Diane von Furstenberg
It's almost hard to believe that's a DVF because she looks like a stripper. Kind of a "lucite heel" sorta dress, if you know what we mean.
Fern Mallis
Fern, Fern, Fern. Sometimes she can look so put together and sometimes she, um...doesn't. Get out your pitchforks if you must, but we're gonna say it. She doesn't always dress appropriately for her body type.
Ahn Duong in Diane von Furstenberg
She is SELLING the SHIT outta that dress. THAT is how you stand and pose, bitches. Brava.
Ashley Olsen in Francisco Costa for Calvin Klein Resort 2009
Wow, she looks really pulled together. We're a little speechless. It's about as rare as a solar eclipse to not see one or both members of Olsen, Inc. looking just a tiny little bit like they just got out of an institution.
Betsey Johnson
Dear Betsey,
Will you consider adopting us?
Love,
T Lo
Auntie Mame brings it once again. Say what you will about her clothes, but have you ever not seen her looking radiant and happy in them?
Mark Badgley and James Mischka with model Hana Soukupova
We're not huge fans of these two, but this really is a stunning dress. A lot of people have been taking us to task for being too hard on the ladies walking the red carpet, but this dress allows us to demonstrate why. When one looks at a red carpet dress and says "It's pretty," or "That would look lovely at a) a wedding, b) a garden party, or c) some other event where they don't have paparazzi," then the dress is a big fail in the red carpet sweepstakes.
It's not enough that a dress be pretty. It has to be a dress that the dozens if not hundreds of photographers practically tear each other apart to get a picture of it. It has to be dramatic and photogenic. This dress is a big win.
Donna Karan
Donna, stop.
It's like she has about 8% of real estate on her body that she feels comfortable exposing and she just cuts holes in her clothes to match. Calf-shoulder-side of boob. Check.
Kim Cattrall in Monique Lhuillier Fall 2008 Collection
Absolutely gorgeous. Perfectly styled. Our first thought was "Why didn't she wear this to one of the SATC premieres?" But we think we know why. She doesn't look like Samantha Jones in this. All four of those girls hit the red carpet in character and that was actually pretty clever.
One other thing: she looks her age. And that's actually a compliment. Unlike her SATC premiere appearances, she looks like a beautiful, sexy 50-year-old instead of a 50-year-old struggling mightily to hold on to her youth.
74 comments:
Fabulous dresses! I was wondering if you guys were going to talk about the event. Thanks for the post, boys!
Kim Cattrall looks GORGEOUS!! Betsey Johnson is a mess AND. I. LOVE. HER.
I love love love that Monique Lhuillier. I read that was the first time Kim Cattrall has ever worn a ML.
Actually, this might be dating me, but doesn't Zac look like he's actually wearing one of those tuxedo t-shirts that were so popular back in the 70's? All he would need is to throw on a pair of rainbow suspenders and it would be extra spiffy.
2008 will go down in fashion history as the summer of the celebrity schmatta. Let's hope it passes quickly so that we can all move on.
Designers (Zac, Vera, Donna) leave fashion forward to the professional bodies, not yours.
I agree on the Badgely Mishka dress. Some dresses are simply spectacular works of art.
Betsey Johnson is on the right track in the second picture. A tossled updo would be a youthful look for her.
And I'd like to think that Ashley Olson was paying a quiet tribute to Yves Saint Laurent. Perhaps his angel was sitting on her shoulder. Or perhaps, she and Fern Mallis switched stylists for the evening.
Posh looks a little Wilma Flintstone to me.
Then Zac Posen said, "Excuse me ladies, are you through with those plates? Can I get you some more water?"
Say what you will about Vera Wang, but at least they finally got a picture of her actually smiling. Baby steps, Vera, baby steps...
Great post!!! And thanks for the hard slog you boys are doing covering the red carpet - it's a dirty job but someone's gotta do it!!
Eva Mendes' CK dress: zzzzzzz....oh sorry! I fell asleep mid writing....
Posh: fucking fabulous, bitch works it SASSY!!
Zac Posen: first though - huh? why the 3/4 sleeves Zac?? But oh, he's so pretty!!
Lauren Hutton: not loving it, although am glad she's not doing the cougar look, thank heavens!!
Duff: meh. Love the color of the dress but too matronly for someone her age.....hike that skirt a few inches and it's a different dress!
Paula Patton: only thing I liked were her shoes...
Vera Wang: Did an oil spill on that dress?? Plus girlfriend needs to hire someone to teach her how to pose....
DVF: looks cool but not digging the double breasted jacket on her - I'm into a fitted look.....but she's workin' it nonetheless
Eva Longoria: looks crap and how the hell can you make yourself look like a stripper in a frickin DVF dress??! Oh yes, buy it way too tight and way too small for your boobs!
Fern Malis: hmm....she's seen better outfits
Ahn Duong: damn. have no clue who she is but she's fierce. Love that dress - THAT's how you wear a DVF dress ladies!!
Olsen: NOT looking homeless for once, hate the shoes though.
Betsey Johnson: can you adopt me too???
Badgley & Mischka dress: love it but the model isnt working it as hard as she could be....
Donna Karan: in a tent as usual
Last but definitely NOT least - Kim Cattrall - this is my fave pic of this post!!! She is stunning, just gorgeous. I want to look like her when I'm 50!!
Kim Cattrall looks FABULOUS! I wanna be just like her (not Samantha) when I grow up.
I don't heart Posh like you do, but I do love her dress. The heels are stylin, but I can't imagine how one walks in them.
Bestey Johnson is a great example of a designer being her own best salesperson. Vera and Donna, take notes. Gah!
Zac Posen - WTF? At first I thought he had just pushed the sleeves up. But bracelet length sleeves? On a guy? I'm sorry, that is just wrong.
Kim looks stunning.
Lauren Hutton and DVF are my new heroes.
As much as I love Betsey Johnson, she needs to step away from the peroxide bottle. She is beginning to resemble Sally Kellerman (in her golden years...and that ain't good)
Posh is starting to scare me a little with the way she poses for the photogs. I will have a hard time sleeping tonight.
Zac Posen is a tool.
Vera Wang, Fern Mallis and Donna Karan...What the fuck we're y'all thinkin?????
You boys are right: Ahn Duong is working the shit outta that gown.
The others are just "also rans" for me.
Ashley Olson looks 50 years old -
I thought Zac Posen was in one of those T-shirts made to look like a tuxedo --- Agree with you on most.
DVF...fab, always fab. Kim Catrall...looking unlike Kim Catrall and therefore fab. Vera Wang, WTF indeed? Did she pin her dog to the front of her dress or what?
Great commentary, TLo!
Knock me over with ruffles, but I've never seen Betsey Johnson look so wonderful.
Diane von Fantastic. That woman knows what she's doing. (Though I agree about the next picture--lucite heels!!)
I like Monique Lhuillier designs, but I don't particularly like this dress, though Kim Cattrall does look great.
The Badgley Mischka is a showstopper.
Gotta say one thing about Fern Mallis - yes, it's the wrong look for her, but, on the other hand, she looks so happy in it.
As usual, hits and misses.
Eva Mendez..zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Victoria Beckham: a lump of coal on two twigs.
Lauren Hutton: Gorgeous at 65
Hillary Duff: meh
Paula Patton: double meh
Vera Wang and Donna Karan: Will SOMEONE please send these two to the "Fashion Whisperer"?
DVF: Absolutely gorgeous
Fern Mallis: There are no words to describe this... terrible comes to mind, though.
Ahn Duong: Who is she, she looks MAGNIFICENT!
Ashley Olson: Finally took a bath and washed her hair.
Betsey Johnson: What a doll, I absolutely love her!!!
Kim Cattrall: Totally FAB!!!
------StkrShock
Good thing Vera makes beautiful wedding dresses, because the rest of her stuff is just bizarre - and not in a good way.
I love Fern Mallis and Diane vF. I want to do lunch, but Fern has to promise not to wear that dress.
I noticed the Sally Kellerman resemblance, too, Hello, I'm Patsy Stone.
Tom in Chicago said, "Posh looks a little Wilma Flintstone to me."
See, and I thought she was about to go flying off to Never Never Land.
Anh Duong- Ravishing.
Eva Longoria- Your dress is too small.
Vera Wang- I kinda like it, it's so her.
Posh- Looks better than usual, I even see a hint of a smile. I don't like the dress though.
Fern- She would look better without the rose between her breasts.
Ashley Olsen- I miss the crazy already..
Betsey Johnson- She looks the best of the lot. I love the skirt on that dress.
Just when I thought I'd grown weary of all this red-carpet nonsense. Along come you lovely boys with more excellence! Love it!
Poor Zac Posen is now suffering from the increasingly widespread designer affliction, bad personal taste-itis. However, his is my favorite look bcause it's just so incomprehensibly bad ("Ethel Mertz sleeves...lol!) Note to Zac: Charlie Chaplin did it way better as The Little Tramp.
Anh Duong is a super-scary bitch. However, she looks absolutely AMAZING in this dress.
- edina -
brooklyn bomber:
"See, and I thought she was about to go flying off to Never Never Land."
This is funny because I'd just edited from my original post my observation that Mrs. Beckham aka Posh looked like a demented, Goth, Tinkerbell.
Finally, Kim Catrall looking splendid.
I do not share the Posh love. I'm just sayin'. OTOH, I adore Kim Cattrall. She looks fabulous!
Diane von Furstenberg could teach a class on designers dressing for success. Hell, she could open a school. And Betsey Johnson could decorate the gym for the prom. :-)
I also love that teal Diane von Furstenberg gown. Demure, yet fabulous.
Not a big Badgley-Mischka fan, my own self, but I must agree...that is a singularly spectacular gown.
Hilary Duff looks great. Someone should show this photo to Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears and explain that this is what it means to be in your 20s and fabulous.
Yes Kim Catrall looks gorgeous. And it never dawned on me that she was dressing as Samantha for the the premieres. That was certainly the case for SJP and Kristen Davis. Although Miranda would never look as glamourous as Cynthis Nixon did those night.
Frank
Eva Longoria's boobs looked too smashed and uncomfortable.
I looked at the Olsen twin and immediately thought Lauren Hutton.
Ditto on the Flintstone couture for Posh.
I think I've said it before but I'll say it again, the fabulous Betsey Johnson is a muppet. Don't believe me? Check here.
Ver Wang looks like she has a sloth or a sleeping chimp hanging from her neck.
Zac looks like ke borrowed his outfit from Fran Leibovitz.
Fern's a gem, but that dress would look better covering our picnic table out in the yard.
Donna Karan continues to look like an unmade bed - although I'll give her a shout out for changing the color of the sheets.
Ahn Duong. Who? You're right, she's working the heck out of that dress. Of course, with a face like that, you gotta sell everything else really hard.
Kim Cattrall seems to be channeling her role in "Bonfire of the Vanities." Classic look; nice.
Who is Paula Patton? She looks like she should be singing "Bali Ha'i" in that sarong.
When Fern Malis nails it, she nails it; when she misses, she looks like Mindy Kohn as Natalie in The Facts of Life.
Kim Catrall and DVF look amazing.
boys, i love everything you write about, but i absolutely adore this post. from posh, to fern, to vera & god bless betsey!
kisses
TLo, bitches, stop apologizing for ripping dresses of the red carpet. I love it when you go for 'real life' dresses and women (haha) instead of fashion-shows and paid beanstalk clothes-hangers.
My favorites here are Posh and Hillary
Zac, nice bulge in his pants
Why didn't anybody tell Vera that someone had taken a dump over the front of her dress?
Fern was going straight to a geriatric cruise from the event
DvF, Ashley nice YSL tributes
After several disasterous looks here in PRG Donna Karan would get my "most-improved" award. Still a mess, but going in the right direction
Kim, Ann, like the dresses; hate, hate the hair.

Bill said: Ahn Duong. Who? You're right, she's working the heck out of that dress. Of course, with a face like that, you gotta sell everything else really hard.
Okay, that actually inspired a spit take.
Ahn Duong = Morticia Addams in living color.
Fabulous!
The more I see Vera Wang and Donna Karan the less I want to buy their clothes. On the flip side, the more I see Betsey Johnson and her vivacious smile, the more I want to buy her clothes even though it's not really my style.
My first reaction to the pic of Lauren Hutton was: "What is going on with her shoes?" Whatever. That motorcycle riding bitch has a lifetime pass. Work it!
sooooooo are you going to give us your reaction to the movie??
Ahn Duong is like Chloe Sevigny to me: I just don't get the love because the sourpuss faces stop me cold every time.
And it's Mary-Kate Olsen who always looks like she's on a day pass out of the psych ward. Ashley's got a fairly impeccable record in the personal hygiene and fashion department.
Brava to Lauren Hutton, DVF and Kim Cattrall proving that 50+ can be absolutely fabulous!
What is it with Vera Wang? She looks as if her dress was attacked by vicious fabric tumors.....
TLO, great post. I love the red carpet stuff, please keep it coming! Don't cater to the haters.
Eva Mendes - I don't like the gathers on the tummy region, not very flattering. But I love the neckline and fit of the top half.
Posh - Looks like Rainbow Bright and Princess Puffy Sleeves designed this dress together. But she's working it.
Zac Posen - Seems to have a sense of humor about fashion, and that makes him even cuter.
Eva Longoria - I can't even look at the dress because her boobs are defying gravity. And she's not even using a tit-strap. How is that attractive?
Olsen Twin - Love it, she looks so put together. Finally.
Hana Soukupova - This reminded me of PPS' feather dress, but I didn't care for it as much. But agreed that it is definitely a show-stopper of a red carpet dress, for sure.
Kim Cattrall - GAW-JUSS.
Oh, please, never stop ripping the red carpet! You inspire me always to greater heights of bitchery. If you stopped, I'd have to go back to being sweet and complimentary to people, and we can't have that, can we?
On to comments:
DVF saved the honor of the design profession. I will never, if I live to be 100 (and considering the longevity on both sides of the family, that's perfectly possible), understand how people like DK and VW, who turn out lovely clothes for other people, can turn up looking like something the cat dragged in. The mind boggles.
Zac looked good, though I agree that normal sleeves would have improved the look. But he's a cutie!
I am completely and utterly bowled over by Ahn Duong's look. My god, she's fabulous! The color and style of the gown suit her to a "T", the fit is perfect and so is her styling. She knocked it out of the park.
I love Ashley Olsen in her girl tux. I love girl tuxes generally (I've done it myself), but not everyone can wear one. And too often it's just a girl in a boy tux. This one works.
The Badgly Mischka rocks, and I'm glad to see that Hana Soukupova had the good taste to let the dress speak for itself and not tart herself up with lots of sparkly stuff.
Kim Cattrall's Lhullier was stunning. Now that's a goddess gown! And again, her simple hairstyle and jewelry only enhanced the look.
Now the bad news:
Hutton is gorgeous, but the dress is blah. Mendes is wearing a nightgown (another thing I don't get). Mallis is a perfect example of what Tim's always saying: big loose dresses make big women look bigger! It's pretty, but not on her.
Beckham should just get herself a pair of toe shoes and be done with it. The dress itself had promise, but it's too bulky on top. Hillary Duff's not bad, but I'm not a fan of dresses that are completely sparkly. Patton and Longoria are just dull.
In a class all by herself: Betsey Johnson. The dress would be complete fug on anyone else, but it's so her that she can carry it off. I can't even begin to imagine her in something less weird!
Okay, done here. Bring on the next batch!
Well said. Jolly good post!
I for one am dying to hear what you have to say about Andre Leon Talley's purple satin peak toe sling backs worn with a rhinestone bedecked Aunt Jemimah turban.
'Foofaraw'?? Please define, TLo.
And i want Kim Catrall to adopt me. :)
Inquiring minds want to know: Who gets to be Joan and who gets to be Melissa?
Vera Wang needs to borrow A-Rod's magic underwear (or whatever it is he lends out to teammates to help them get over a slump). Then she should pass it on to Donna Karan.
And BTW, I have to say that I saw the SATC movie this morning, and while I won't give away any plot, I will say there was more than one scene that made me wish it had been on HBO so you guys could blog it. The most obvious being the scene where one character excitedly pulls the most freakishly HIDEOUS Louis Viutton bag out of a box screaming (the character was screaming, not the bag. I think). Anyway, I cracked up even more just thinking about what you two bitches would have had to say about it. Then there was Andre Leon Tally's billboard, but I won't even go there...
--GothamTomato
great post, boys! i can't disagree with any of your comments...i'm not a big fan of posh, but i actually liked her look. very few could wear it, but she makes it work...
kim catrall looked gorgeous! even ashley olsen was a pleasant surprise. i, too thought zac posen was wearing one of those t-shirts with the tux printed on it (i think those were 3/4 sleeves, too)...
brava lauren hutton & DVF for dressing with class & style but not looking like they're trying to look 30. both look FAB.
i love betsey johnson, and that dress is one that only she could get away with -- my first reaction was that she is channeling cookie monster.....but who can argue with her joyful demeanor?
"I for one am dying to hear what you have to say about Andre Leon Talley's purple satin peak toe sling backs worn with a rhinestone bedecked Aunt Jemimah turban."
You're not the only one, Anon 12:28! He looked like a tarted up version of Daddy Warbucks's manservant. Love this post guys and never give of red carpet ripping!! Loved DvF and Kim Cattrall, both stunning and totally age appropriate. And when do we get an SATC movie review??
The Andre Leon Talley ensemble sounds especially intriguing. Please post! Pleeeeease!
XO,
edina
Vera Wang....WTF?!?! This looks like the dress that Malan got aufed for, after it got put in a shredder.
Zac Posen looks like he's catering the party. Posh looks quite Posh, and her feet look like they're going to be shaped like Barbie's by the end of the year. Lauren Hutton looks classic. I hope to look so good at 65. How old is Hilary Duff? She looks about 25 here, but I think she's maybe five years younger than that? Fun color, and it looks like a fun dress to wear, and those are fabulous earrings. I don't know who Paula Patton is but she just looks like a column of fabric. Vera Wang makes me speechless. I can't believe someone would even design that, let alone wear it. Fern has looked better. Those pants on Ms. Olsen look almost like Hammer pants. DK No No. And Kim Catrall is such a stunning woman, it's so nice to see her not having to be Samantha.
I know many have commented on this, but the 3/4 sleeve on a men's jacket is what they are pushing right now. It is in MANY collections as a chic, trendy, more casual look. I on the other hand HATE IT. If you're gonna wear a jacket, wear a fucking jacket!!! Otherwise, leave the damn thing off!
I keep wanting to ask Hillary Duff if I can buy a vowel. She looks like Vanna White in that dress.
Oh my, Zac Posen looks absurd - but am I the only one who thinks its that awful shirt that makes the look so terrible? How can a high end designer make his own outfit look like he shopped at the formal section of K-mart?
For the first time in my life, I want to dress like an Ashley twin.
While I'm not really a fan of the dress Ms. Cattrall is wearing (Rami meets VictorYa's bedallzed prom dress, imho), I think she looks stunning. And yes, as I approach 50 (as slowly as possible), I'd kill to look like that when I get there.
Am I the only one who think Kim Catrall looks horrible? That hair makes her look like one of the guards in one of those 1950s women-in-prison movies.
hello, i'm patsy stone said...
As much as I love Betsey Johnson, she needs to step away from the peroxide bottle. She is beginning to resemble Sally Kellerman (in her golden years...and that ain't good)
I think it's a wig.
Is it just me or do Zac's shoes look really old and skuffed?
Ok, I'll admit it too. I kind of love Posh as well. She's a crazy bitch, yes, but always entertaining. And I love how she just will put on just about anything that looks good to her. "Hearts as a dress? Darling, that's FANTASTIC!"
"Shoes that might kill me? Darling, it's all in the name of fashion."
xD
Oh TLo, all I can really say is thank you for this because I'm having such a dreadful day and this lightened my spirits.
"Vera Wang and Donna Karan: Will SOMEONE please send these two to the "Fashion Whisperer"?"
You put those photos there for laughs, right?
Someone please explain the cult of Eva Longoria. So she stars in a primetime soap, and that'a special? Go figure.
Betsey Johnson rocks! DVF looks fab too.
Posh, her emaciated bod and her lobotomized android expression can fall off the earth as far as I'm concerned. A cute, funky dress made of hearts deserves at least a hint of mischief or fun in the face of the wearer.
Hilary Duff channeling a botoxed 40
year old Trump mistress. Why? Well, look at the success of Sex in the City, maybe 40 is the new "It" age.
Scary Ahn Duong, looking ready to perform enhanced interogation techiques in the next Bond movie, until I view the even scarier Betsy Johnson, looking like some escapee from the Ringling Bros Retirement Home.
Yipes, what a pack. Of course Vera Wang looks unhappy with a giant wolverine gorging on her still beating heart.
Still, you're right about the Badgley Mishka. Thats the dress you'd get Sargent to paint your portrait in and hang in the Met. Just remember to put up your chin and express serene entitlement.
What the fuck is up with the Duchess's pants? Did he jus tcome in from the beach digging for clams? They are so friggin short!
Vera has a dog on the front of her dress. It was the only way she could bring her pet to the event without getting in trouble.
I think Zac really is wearing a women's jacket with those sleeves and just doesn't want to man up to it.
Hillary Duff's dress lokks like a Laura Bennet. The one Heidi wore on the show.
I didn't even recognize Kim Cattrall. She looks gorgeous--the hair, the make-up, the dress.
Zac's pants are hot (as are his eyebrows), but, yes--that shirt is insane.
I volunteer to be the lone voice of dissent. The Badgely/Mishka dress is an attention grabber, but something about the combination of hues just puts me off.
I wanna see how DVF would place in Dames & Divas. I'm pretty sure she'd make it to the semi-finals without much trouble.
BTW, if you're jonesing for the Andre Leon Talley story or more fashion bitchery in general, try www.GoFugYourself.com.
To those who mentioned Andre Leon Talley, thank you because I had the biggest laugh in years! I saw his pic and thought, "Someone tell Aunt Esther she forgot her pocketbook and Bible!"
Now that I've seen other views of Posh's dress I see it isn't as similar to Christians Bryant Park runway dress as I thought. But viewed from the left side there's a whole lot of fabricosity on that bodice.
Eva Longoria's dress is pretty bad from the front but she's got the ass thing going. However, those Wilma Flintsone rocks around the neckline, maybe not.
Thank God Lauren Hutton hasn't done anything to her face. And Ahn Duong, same thing, she hasn't aged a day!
I don't know why but Zac Posen's outfit made me think of a breakway costume. Like he's going to grab it at the shoulders and pull it all off and he'll be in something tasteful. Or sexy.
BrianB
Why can designers never look put together? I don't get it. How can they design gorgeous clothes for people, but can't for themselves? What is up with Betsey,Donna, Vera..etc. the list goes on and onnnnn
OMG...LOL, BrianB!! (aka anonymous: 6:47)
Your Aunt Esther comment is spot-on. I went to style.com for more pics and you really hit the proverbial nail on the head. Unfortunately, one of Andre's travel companions or houseboys did not have the good sense to hit him on the turban leaving his hotel wearing that get-up.
Kudos, to your BrianB! Kudos, to you.
"BrianB said: To those who mentioned Andre Leon Talley, thank you because I had the biggest laugh in years!"
I felt the same way when I saw him in the SATC movie. He's only a background extra in the Vogue shoot scenes, but in one he holds a LV case with 'Andre Leon Tally' in big, bold yellow letters emblazoned across it as the camera pans across.
Bitch desperately wanted to get noticed.
--GothamTomato
Edina Monsoon and Gotham Tomato,
I guess when you think about it, doing Aunt Esther is a step up from sitting in the front row of a fashion show with your fly completely open. Next to Anna Wintour!! Attention getting, indeed!
And anything amusing I've said here pales in comparison to the waves of wit I've read from the two of you! Thank YOU!
BrianB
My fashion goddesses - Lauren, Betsey and Diane VF - not only dressing their (my) age but also without that terribly uncomfortable filled 'n' frozen look like Kim C. Love the wrinkles and crinkles, ladies. You are absolutely stunning; Diane wins the outfit prize since I'm in full swoon too. Brava!
Where did Eva L. GET her boobs? I've never seen any chest on that chick at all, and all of a sudden they're spilling out of a too-tight dress? That's a good trick.
I love Betsey Johnson! I love her spirit, her clothes, she's so cool.
Zac Posen is dating a MUCH younger man and put his coat on by accident, in the dark...hope he doesn't get caught by the cops!
Is Eva Longoria pregnant?
Hana Soukupova looks stunning.
Late, but funny that my first thought was for Vera and Donna (whose mess I hadn't yet seen) take a lesson from DVF on how to do the red carpet. It's a shame DVF's brand was horrible last year and Rachael Ray in some bnoxiously printed DVF wrap dresses was her almost daily spokesperson.
Then I saw Donna and LOL. It looks like she's had some work done.
Agree that Ms. Catrall was dressing "in character" during the SATC events. I gasped in awe when I saw that. Grecian done right..
Oh hell, I hate this new blogger setup. That last post was mine. :-)
Kim Catrall - Nice but not digging the hair, same with Hilary Duff.
Eva L. should be walking the corner for sure.
Fern Mallis whoever she is should be ashamed wearing that muumuu. Is she on her way to a luau?
Ashley O. actually looks decent, but I agree that it's MK that usually looks bad.
Betsy J. does look like moppet.
Zac, Zac, Zac...
-burnsie
Does Vera EVER wear make-up!?!? lol.
