87th Academy Awards - Red Carpet

Our favourite looks from the 2015 Oscars...so many gorgeous celebs and gowns, these were our top 10!

Zoe's Atelier Versace blush pink gown is simple but elegant. A nice contrast between the fitted bodice and flowy skirt, and styled with just the right amount of frosting.

Love the colour and neckline of Anna's beautiful Thakoon Gown... She looks perfectly balanced, glowing in fact in youthful beauty.

Lupita's red carpet choice did not disappoint and on this night she looked divine! The custom Calvin Klein gown features a heavily embellished bodice, with reports saying over 6,000 natural pearls were used in the making of this dress (source: New York Times)!

Naomi, another Red Carpet favourite wore a stunning metallic piece by Armani, She looked stylishly chic in the glittery silver gown, complete with dark nails and lips. The construction of the dress was interesting in that there was a crop top element in the design (which we loved), very on-trend.

Emma sparkled in Elie Saab's lime green gown, and wore her gorgeous hair swept to the side in soft  romantic waves and bold red lips. The thigh-high split was a feature, as well as the super low back cut. Bombshell material right here!

Another gorgeous Zuhair Murad gown as worn by Anna on the night. Beautifully styled with relaxed soft waves and minimal accessories. We are massive fans of Zuhair Murad and will never get tired of big sparkly gowns that remind us of fairytales & princesses (in a very good way!).

Margo's deep plunge gown by Saint Laurent was simple and sleek. The vintage Van Cleef & Arpels necklace was perfection and complimented her outfit beautifully.

Rita's Marchesa gown could not be any more dramatic. She looked perfectly stunning. The mermaid gown was well fitted, elegant and sexy. Just love her style and her ability to amaze, always.

Jlo wore a breathtaking Elie Saab masterpiece. The perfect cut of the bodice, the exquisite embellishments and layers of tulle... this dress is magical to say the least.

Lady Gaga not only wowed the audience with her performance on the night, she made a grand entrance in a statement gown by Azzadine Alaia. Complete with red gloves, this gown is everything...

2014 Primetime Emmy Awards - Red Carpet Favourites

Love seeing what celebs are wearing on the Red Carpet, and the 66th Primetime Emmys did not dissapoint! These are a few of my favourites from the night, you can see the whole coverage at Style.

Sophia Vergara looks like a goddess in this structured Roberto Cavalli gown. I especially love the mermaid skirt and lines on the bodice. Her trademark hourglass shape is accentuated well by the flawless fit.

Mute toned embellished dresses are an all-time favourite and is never out of style. Taylor Schilling looks glamorous in Zuhair Murad Couture, although I do with she chose a bolder lip colour.

Ulyana Sergeenko - Spring 2014 Couture

Ulyana Sergeenko designed a gorgeous couture collection that evokes feelings of an old-time romance, sensual and elegant with a dramatic flair. 

“It’s a glamorous woman taking a voyage through the Eastern republics of the former Soviet Union" The Russian couturier explains. Inspirations were taken from a train trip, with destinations that included Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. Ulyana tells a story through her exquisite collection and translates the adventures of a femme fatale. 

Detailing was greatly emphasized and close-up you could see the intricate details and careful craftsmanship for each piece. The collection featured luxurious silk satins, hourglass corsets with very defined sweetheart necklines, hand-painted fringing, some layering and silk embroidery. The accessories fit the theme with colourful vintage-feel trunks and bed-roll clutches with flower embroideries and tassels. All the models wore peep-hole pumps and looked sultry and sophisticated. 

Below are my favourite looks from the collection, be sure to check her work out, links below.
