After paging through thousands of red-carpet photographs from this year’s awards season, which just wrapped up with Sunday’s Oscarswe’ve noticed a popular designer emerge—Maria Lucia Hohan! Ashley Tisdale and Maria Menounos chose the Romanian designer’s clothes over Academy Awards weekend alone, while Stacy Kiebler and Jennifer Hudson also picked her elaborately draped and pleated gowns for red carpet events this year. ”It’s a dream come true, and I thank the universe for listening to my wishes and opening doors for me,” Hohan told InStyle.com of seeing celebrities in her line, which she first launched in 2003. ”My gowns are very glamorous, yet not too dressy, which is a nice combination.” Each of of her star-approved looks are handmade and shoppable on her website, mlh-shop.com. They run around $1,000 each and can be crafted in any color—including white, a great bridal option. See who else loves wearing Hohan’s designs in the gallery!

The Blonds: Dressing Jennifer Hudson Is ‘Emotional’

Feb 16, 2012 @ 5:40 pm

Jennifer Hudson’s stage outfits command attention—especially this little red number she wore to the VH1 Divas Celebrate Soul concert in December. The designers behind the look, The Blonds’ David and Phillipe Blond, were beyond thrilled to have the powerhouse singer in one of their designs. “That was just so, so magical,” Phillipe told InStyle.com at the label’s fall 2012 fashion show. “She was completely elated,” David noted. “Even during rehearsals we were really emotional because it’s the first time she’s worn such a revealing and fun costume onstage.” Phillipe added: “It was a really special moment. We all got really emotional.” Fashion can do that sometimes!

Valentine’s Day Makeup Idea: Red and Pink Lips!

Nothing says Valentine’s Day like red and pink! But instead of changing into a bright dress tonight, swipe on a statement-making lipstick. Emma Watson paired shiny ruby lips with a retro cat eye, while Christina Hendricks chose a fluorescent cherry that bordered on orange. If a bright red is too much of a commitment, think pink. Opt for a glossy rose like Jennifer Hudson, or if you’re feeling adventurous, try a hot pink like Jenna Dewan. Both shades work best with natural-looking eye makeup, and are perfect for taking you from the office to date night!
