As if the amfAR Gala’s red carpet wasn’t enough to push you into fashion sensory overload, we now have the night’s main event–the all-gold fashion show curated by Carine Roitfeld–to drool over.
The Great Gatsby events weren’t the only happenings to draw a well-heeled crowd this week (though we’ve never seen so much perfect Prada in one place). For instance, Zoe Saldana’s killing her Star Trek press tour; Georgia Jagger reminded us how stylish she is at a Sunglass Hut event; and Emilia Clarke continued to prove us right in a lovely Dior number.

Thom Browne wasn’t the only award winner at last night‘s Pratt Institute Fashion show.
When Hamish Bowles presented Thom Browne with the Pratt Fashion Visionary Award at last night’s Pratt Institute Fashion Show, he brought up Michelle Obama’s choice of a Thom Browne coat on Inauguration day, calling it a “life-changing event” for the designer. Browne wouldn’t disagree with that sentiment.
To coincide with Costume Institute’s upcoming “Punk: Chaos to Couture” exhibit Moda Operandi has tapped 12 high fashion designers and brands to create a limited edition punk-inspired capsule collection–that’ll ring in at luxury price points no doubt.
Pre-Fall 2013 has wrapped!…or has it?…Nobody can quite say for sure, but with the Fall 2013 shows quickly approaching in mid-February, we figured now was as good a time as any to take inventory of our favorites from “the season between seasons.”
Inaugural style went beyond just one gown: from the First Family to the celebrities, everyone brought their A-game to D.C. this weekend.
Every single piece of Michelle Obama’s extensive inauguration weekend wardrobe has been thoroughly scrutinized, but there’s one item in particular that’s gotten everyone extra fired up: The J. Crew Valentina belt the First Lady added over her Thom Browne coat.
The men’s shows are ovah and it’s on to the spring couture shows. We had our contributor Long Nguyen, co-founder and style director of Flaunt, front row taking it all in. Here are his reports from the menswear shows at Lanvin, Comme des Garçons, Dior Homme, and the man of the hour, Thom Browne.
Michelle Obama made some quick changes today.
Michelle Obama has worn Thom Browne before, but as Thom Browne is a relatively obscure and fashion forward designer (Savannah Guthrie admitted on TODAY that she’d never heard of him), fashion peeps (us included) are already fired up about her fashion choice.
Who’s in the running towards becoming America’s Next Inauguration Designer?
We won’t know for sure what Michelle Obama will wear to the inaugural balls until Monday (unless someone who doesn’t value their job decides to spill the beans), but WWD‘s got the scoop on which designers have fielded sample requests from the White House.
No one on the list is particularly surprising.
