Friday Style Icon: Michelle Williams

In Wren + Nina Ricci
In Suno
In Alexander Wang

This week’s Friday Style Icon is pretty straight forward: Michelle Williams is a really talented actress and a fashion risk-taker with good taste. She wears a refined palette of metallics and neutrals, knows what looks good on her (she loves a fitted bodice and a full skirt) and sticks to her guns (she will wear all the lace dresses). She’s partial to Chanel, Balenciaga, and Erdem and her trademark look is a mix of ladylike, mod and nonchalant. Although sometimes she comes up short, for the most part Williams is a lovely presence on red carpets who makes unconventional, intelligent fashion decisions and occasionally just kills it (we all remember her yellow Vera Wang from the Oscars). Let’s see some of her hits. More »

Vera Wang's Special Kardashian Wedding Collection Will Hit Stores In February!

Remember how Vera Wang designed three separate dresses for Kim Kardashian‘s fairy tale wedding? Remember how you were kind of confused that someone like Wang–who’s built a brand on tradition and tastefulness–would align herself with the most trashy, awful, venal people currently using their cleavage to shill for Midori on television? Well, first of all, we’re glad you were confused. That was critical thinking at work. More »

We’re currently in Fall 2011, Spring 2012 just showed and it’s Fall 2012 time for Bridal. Does that make sense? No? Too bad. Anyway, Fall 2012 bridal had some surprises: though there’s always a few looks with a high hemline, a few weird silhouettes and techno fabrics, this season there were also more than a few jet black wedding dresses. …That being said, there was a whole lot of lace and mermaid gowns and cap sleeves, too. Here’s our picks for the best of them, from heavyweights like Vera Wang, Monique Lhuillier, Oscar de la Renta, Carolina Herrera and more. More »

It’s Bridal time (FUCK YEAH MARRIAGE)! All the heavy hitters–Carolina Herrera, Monique Lhuillier, Oscar de la Renta–are showing wedding collections for Fall 2012. Interestingly, the heaviest hitter of them all, Vera Wang, was feeling pretty moody: black wedding gown levels of moody. For what it’s worth, Wang was wading into darker waters last season (she showed lots of dove gray) but still kept it pretty romantic and delicate. This collection, however, is downright goth. I don’t mean to be a completely ridiculous parody of my high school goth self but… I kind of like them? More »

Gallery: Kim Kardashian's Official Wedding Photos Have Arrived And Now We Can Be Whole Again

Remember how Kim Kardashian got married and it was supposed to be Our! Royal! Wedding! and then it wasn’t because the Kardashians are off-putting and terrible? Well, TheGloss posted some photos and then we (and every blog) got a sternly-worded letter from People asking they be taken down. Thankfully, TMZ just got the full batch–seriously, almost 100 photos of your least favorite people in the world!–and now we are posting some because, honestly, I felt spiritually incomplete without the ability to gawk at Kim Kardashian’s hideous fucking Sexy Childlike Empress Halloween costume.

Well now they have, and some scrappy blogger at Glamazonsblog has already scanned them in and posted them, so here they are. These are the photos People paid $1.5 million for. Do you think they were worth it? More »

Gallery: Which Of These Vera Wang Wedding Gowns Will Kim Kardashian Wear On Her Big Day?

The following dresses are looks from Vera Wang’s Fall 2011 bridal collection, in which we ask, “Which one will Kim Kardashian choose on her wedding day?” The short answer is… “None of them,” because Kim Kardashian is probably getting her gown custom made by Wang and her team. However, if we look at the recent runway show, we can try to imagine the subtle changes Kim Kardashian might request so that the gowns better reflect her own… unique… style. More »
