If having an Oscar red carpet moment is any indication of a designer (and a celebrity designer at that) making it, then Victoria Beckham has definitely made it. The perennially best-dressed Charlize Theron, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Cameron Diaz are reportedly seeking the designer’s flattering, fitted wears for Hollywood’s biggest night.

A secret source told the Daily Mirror that, “Although it’s a great place to be in, Victoria’s been working day and night to keep up with demand.” So, what will the A-list be wearing? Check out our best guesses!

Celeb poll: Vote for your favourite dress from the Met Gala!

Comments

The Met Gala, the annual celebration of New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art‘s summer Costume Institute exhibit, is loosely known as the Oscars of fashion. This year, models of the moment, editrixes, big-deal designers, as well as fashion-crowd approved pop stars and actresses flocked to the famed red steps in the name of Alexander McQueen, the subject of this years exhibit entitled Savage Beauty. While the designer’s famed creations didn’t dominate the carpet quite as we had hoped (but more on that later), there were lots of juicy bright hues (Zoe Saldana and Ginnifer Goodwin), ladylike lace (Rihanna, Taylor Swift), anything-but-basic black (Christina Ricci, Ashley Olsen, Stella McCartney), and plenty of glitzy gowns (Gwyneth Paltrow, Diane Kruger) to feast our eyes on.

As for our faves? We loved Diane in her up-to-there Jason Wu gown, and Liv Tyler in her breathtaking feathered Givenchy couture. And you?

Raising her own bar even further, Lady Gaga literally hatched on-stage from a Hussein Chalayan-designed egg straight into her performance, outfitted in a see-through Mugler dress complete with prosthetic shoulders.

Celeb stylist David Babaii helps you fake third-day hair

1 Comment

apr09babaii_250Hairstylist David Babaii is a man of his word. Even though he called me two hours late, I wasn’t ruffled in the least. In fact, I was amazed he called at all, what with all his jetsetting to tend to the coifs of Kate Hudson, Angelina Jolie (he did her hair for the Oscars), Gwyneth Paltrow and others. But he apologizes nonetheless, explaining that he’s on set with Scarlett Johansson and has the “worst cell reception” but that it’s still no excuse. Such courtesy and respect for an editor—no wonder the A-listers keep him around. Oh right, lest we forget the amazing manes he crafts, especially for Kate, who I assume is his number one girl—they created a hair line, David Babaii for Wildaid together, after all.
