Runway Looks We Love: Zac Posen

Feb 13, 2012 @ 4:25 pm

Zac Posen channeled Japanese inspiration for his fall 2012 collection, showing off looks in colors like imperial blue and Tokyo red. Obi belts cinched kimono-sleeved tops, while Judith Leiber created minaudières shaped like cats and pagodas. Posen also collaborated with Illesteva for sunglasses and Manolo Blahnik for footwear. Coco Rocha closed the show in a black and blue jacquard bustier gown that filled the entire runway, a look sure to land on a Hollywood actress sometime soon. See more of our favorite Zac Posen looks in the gallery!

Jan 11, 2012 @ 12:05 pm

It was a meeting of the redheads when Emma Stone (in J. Mendel) helped celebrate Ahna O’Reilly (in Issa) and Jessica Chastain‘s Best Ensemble Cast win for The Help at the National Board of Review Awards Gala, held at Cipriani 42nd Street in New York. When we caught up with Chastain separately, she told us she picked out her Zac Posen dress just for the big night. “This dress is so theatrical, but also very modern,” she said. “It’s feminine and edgy. I’m a huge fan!” See Keira Knightley, Carey Mulligan, and more stars at last night’s hottest parties in the gallery!

Hilary Swank (in Elie Saab) and Lea Michele (in Valentino) both went for high shine. “It reminded me most of New Year’s!” Michele said of why she picked her gown. Meanwhile, Katherine Heigl chose a lace design by Dolce & Gabbana, and Sofia Vergara rounded out the holiday theme with a Zac Posen bustier-style LBD. The film hits theaters Friday.

Rob Lowe and Sofia Vergara held a hilarious impromptu beauty pageant when they presented the nominees in the Lead Actress in a Comedy Series category at the 2011 Emmy Awards tonight. But the presenters didn’t announce what they wore—so we will! From left to right:

McCarthy ultimately took home the win. “Holy smokes,” she said as she took her statue. “Wow, it’s my first and best pageant ever.” After the show, Martha Plimpton admitted it was ultimately her and Poehler’s idea. “The whole point is that we should be up there celebrating each other,” Plimpton told InStyle.com. “If there’s no spontaneity and no fun, then what’s the point?” See what everyone wore on the 2011 Emmys red carpet in the gallery!
