The 2015 Emmys


Kerry Washington Is Wearing Marc Jacobs at the 2015 Emmys
Kerry Washington stepped out in a Marc Jacobs gown (straight from the designer's spring collection) on the red carpet at the 2015 Emmy Awards, held at the Microsoft Theater on Sunday (Sept. 20) in Los Angeles.
The actress is presenting at this evening's awards. Her co-star Khandi Alexander is nominated for the role of Maya Lewis on the ABC show.
Styled by Erin Walsh, she donned an embroidered metallic dot lace three-quarter length sleeve v-neck gown with embellished shoulders, a degrade gold sequin scalloped hem and side slits.
Washington's ensemble is particularly exciting because he just showed his spring 2016 collection on Thursday, Sept. 17 at the Ziegfeld Theater in New York, meaning, Kerry and stylist Walsh snagged the newest hottest dress right off the runway.
Jacobs has rarely ever had a gown from his own eponymous collection walk the runway (though he had many a gown on the red carpet when he designed for Louis Vuitton). When his company recently hired celebrity wrangler Celine Khavarani away from many years at Prada, it did seem he’d be making a play for the red carpet — as reported first by THR. Now it’s clear he is, and it will be interesting to watch his own collection add lots of carpet-worthy evening — and who gets to wear them.

Lorde Had the Perfect Beauty Solution for Her Sensitive Skin


Fashion week is hard enough when you're a model or an editor running around between shows in the sweltering New York heat, but it's even harder when you're an international popstar traveling the world for months at a time to perform and occasionally dropping by to support a fellow musician by sitting front row at his fashion show.
Like the trooper that she is, however, Lorde managaed to do just that. Wedged between Kourtney Kardashian and Riccardo Tisci at pal Kanye West's Yeezy Season 2 presentation, the singer managed to take in the all the sights to be seen at the show — despite a rather irritated eyeball.
Understandably, Lorde did not want to miss the spectacle, so the 18-year-old came up with the perfect solution for her sensitive skin: She decided not to wear makeup on half of her face.
"the skin is peeling off my lips and hands these days i very rarely see the sun and my eye is weeping and screaming and it's fashion week and everyone already thinks i'm strange and it's a kanye show where the freaks are beautiful so why not say fuck it and let's dance with the melodrama?" she captioned an Instagram showing her puffy red right eye juxtaposed next to the perfectly winged liner on her left eye.
Once at the show, Lorde seemed unconcerned by her uneven beauty look, even taking the chance to pose with Drake, whom "low key" referred to her as his "wifey" via Instagram. Do we smell a collaboration brewing in the future? Fingers crossed.

Malin Akerman Only Wears Pink


Malin Akerman Only Wears Pink If It's "Edgy"
“One of the first magazines I was ever in, I wore a Milly dress and have just fallen in love since then,” said Orange Is the New Black’s Samira Wiley at the Milly spring 2016 show on Tuesday.
The actress had just returned from L.A. and was attending her first show of the season. “I’m working the rest of the week, having some fun today,” she said, before being called to pose for photographs with fellow front-row attendee actress Malin Åkerman.
“I became a big fan just recently, this year,” said Åkerman, in a bold pink Milly top and skirt. “I love the colors, the cuts. It’s just funky and edgy and right up my alley. I usually wouldn’t wear pink, but because of the way this is cut — it’s just very edgy.”
Åkerman, who will next star in the legal thriller Beyond Deceit with Oscar winners Anthony Hopkins and Al Pacino, is “taking it easy” this fashion week, explaining that it was her son’s first week of preschool. “I want to be there for him — drop him off, pick him up from school. That’s my priority.” The actress attended DVF earlier in the week and planned to make an appearance at Ralph Lauren, she said.
Plus-size model Ashley Graham was also in attendance, as was Solange Knowles (who refused interviews, echoing similar sentiments earlier in the week), taking her seat seconds before the show began.
FKA Twigs' “Figure 8” blasted as models, showcasing a natural face and slicked back hair, unveiled a collection full of strapless and off the shoulder pieces, plunging necklines — neutral and colorful solids, bold prints and stripes — accessorized with choker necklaces and strappy, black heeled sandals. Following the final look, Milly designer Michelle Smith came out to applause with her two young children in hand, and soon, Knowles could be seen posing for selfies with fans, as she made her way backstage.

Orange Is the New Black's


This Is How 'Orange Is the New Black's' Dascha Polanco Preps for the Emmys
She must get really sick of the prison-inspired makeup and hair required for playing Dayanara Diaz on Orange Is the New Black, because in her spare time actress Dascha Polanco really mixes it up. She sat front row — her first time! — at Mara Hoffman’s show Saturday, which was the perfect place to debut her new rose-gold bob.
The actress, who has rocked gray and garnet red locks before now as well as countless cuts, styles and textures is a bit of a beauty chameleon. Her hair stylist Cynthia Alvarez — who also works with Keke Palmer and Adrienne Bailon — was responsible for this new change that she said was a "very difficult process to get rose gold. We were embracing color tones and our undertones as Latinas," said Polanco before the show.
As for the Emmys, she says they're procrastinating on the dress, but that since "last year I did kind of a princess-y thing, this year I’m going for va-va-voom — embrace those curves!" She may not have a gown picked out, but she did mention she feels loyal to Houghton — "she’s my go-to designer" — whose show she’ll attend on Monday.
And she has her pre-awards show ritual down pat: "Juicing, body scrubs, massage — it’s all about healthy skin, feeling great and clean, and then I fragrance it up!" said Polanco. "I have a whole ritual about fragrancing myself up." At this particular show she layered handmade shea butter with jasmine, Dove spray, L’Occitane shimmer and Ralph Lauren Romance ($41). "It depends on what the mood is. I’m into [Le Labo] Santal For award shows I wear all my exclusives, like Creed or L’Artisan. Or this fire one, it’s woodsy and a men’s cologne that’s exclusive to Barneys. It’s a men’s fragrance I like to wear at awards shows."

DJ Mia Moretti Joins The RealReal as an Ambassador


Some partnerships are seemingly just for show, but DJ Mia Moretti's new role as fashion and arts ambassador for luxury consignment site The RealReal actually is hands-on. The former MAC collaborator kicks things off Wednesday at 7 a.m. PT with a curated sale featuring goodies by Chanel, Marni, Etro and more.
Along with hand-picking pieces for this sale, Moretti will be curating editorial content, styling look books for the site and taking the lead on new philanthropic and artistic initiatives. As for why The RealReal wanted the DJ on its team, she has impeccable taste — she cites a new gold Hermes scarf as something she themed her entire suitcase around, and her can't-travel-without pieces include a Missoni bikini, practical ladylike flats and an evening bag. But her whole approach to building an ensemble is inspiring and fantastic.
"There's really no rhyme or reason to getting ready," says Moretti of selecting her outfit for a gig. "I usually put a bit of Ella Fitzgerald on my record player, pour a glass of wine and just start decorating. It's like decorating a room really. You start with one piece and build from there. It's usually the shiny and new piece that I start with, because it's so hard to resist that new find." Amen, sister.

Kristen Stewart Stuns in Sparkling Dress and Goes Barefoot


Kristen Stewart Stuns in Sparkling Dress and Goes Barefoot at 2015 Venice Film Festival
Hey, heels hurt.
Kristen Stewart smiled, got comfy and kicked off her pumps as she settled into a seat at a premiere screening of her newest film, Equals, at the 2015 Venice Film Festival in Italy on Saturday.
The actress, best known for her role in the Twilight films, wore a stunning, sparkling, gray lace and satin color-block tea-length Chanel fall 2015 Couture dress with elbow-length sleeves, an asymmetrical, scalloped hem, sheer overlays with silver embellishments and shoulder straps. She rocked the look on the red carpet, pairing it with metallic pointed pumps and a dark berry lip color.
The actress has often kicked off her shoes and gone barefoot at movie premieres, such as last month's Los Angeles premiere of American Ultra.
Equals, a dystopian sci-fi film, stars X-Men star Nicholas Hoult as Stewart's love interest. A U.S. release date has not been announced.
"Thank you to Venice and for everyone's support," Hoult, 25, said on Twitter. "Very special memories made with the #Equals gang this weekend. So proud of them all."
