Narciso Rodriguez Texts Claire Danes on the Red Carpet

May 2, 2012 @ 6:00 pm

When Narciso Rodriguez wants Claire Danes to know how amazing she looks in his designs, he texts her himself! Like last week, when the actress stopped by the Tribeca Film Festival in a sexy hot pink Rodriguez look. “I sent her a text saying, ‘Thank you for making me look so good,’” the designer told us at a benefit for his alma mater, Parsons the New School for Design. “And that’s on top of being a really great friend and a woman who’s so amazing, so beautiful and talented and courageous and intelligent. She really is all that. And I’m proud to call her my friend.” Now that’s a sweet relationship!

Runway Looks We Love: Narciso Rodriguez

Feb 15, 2012 @ 6:45 pm

Narciso Rodriguez debuted his first-ever line of bags and shoes during his fall 2012 fashion show, revealing luxe, minimal, wearable clutches, day bags, boots, and pumps. As for the clothes—which front rowers Gloria Estefan and Claire Danes both gushed over—the lineup included fluid silk dresses and body-hugging tweed bustiers in an autumnal palette with shades of orange, brick, and tangerine. The designer also spliced shiny and matte fabrics together to create unique silhouettes, and the sweeping trains trailing some of the gowns added understated drama.

Narciso Rodriguez’s spring 2012 collection was filled with clean, crisp and modern looks. Moments of intense orange interjected into the palette of white, black, aqua and silver, colors that also showed up in the brushed-back hairstyles covered in purple, sky blue, and tangerine hues. Sheer fabrics pieced together to create a chic effect, and bright bras peeked out for a sporty-meets-sexy feel. Asymmetrical hemlines finished the collection’s perfect slip dresses.

What Happens Leading Up to Fashion Week? Watch The Day Before

Sep 4, 2010 @ 1:27 pm

With Fashion Week rapidly approaching, the Sundance Channel will return with their series, The Day Before, to remind us of all the pre-show madness. The miniseries, which will air from September 8 to September 13, will feature six designers—Diane Von Furstenberg, Versace, Alexander Wang, Narciso Rodriguez, Nina Ricci and Jeremy Scott—on the eve of their Fall 2010 runway shows. We’re especially looking forward to self-described “drama queen” Donatella Versace’s episode (airing Sept. 9), where we’ll get to see the house of Versace prepare for their extravagant runway show in Milan. “It’s time to question everything,” says Versace of her looming show. “It’s torture!” Check out the teaser clip above.
