Sunday, May 18, 2014




 Freida Pinto in Oscar de la Renta Fall 2014 ball gown--"The Homesman" Premiere, 67th Annual Cannes Film Festival



The 67th Cannes Film Festival is happening in the South of France and it's been a COUTURE fashion frenzy--in terms of the Red Carpet---Here are the FASHION HIGHLIGHTS from tonight's "The Homesman" Premiere. The film is a Western starring Tommy Lee Jones, Hilary Swank, Meryl Streep and Hailee Steinfeld, among others. One of the attendees at tonight's premiere Indian actress--and stunning beauty--Freida Pinto:





Freida Pinto in Oscar de la Renta Fall 2014: Freida was very on "Red Carpet Trend" wearing a strapless Ball Gown. She decided on a red hi-lo ball gown with gold detail from Oscar de la Renta's Fall 2014 collection.







Work That Gown: The gown made a stunning impact on the red carpet and especially on Freida's olive-toned skin and dark hair; it was perfection from head-to-toe.



Another Ball Gown Girl was Indian Bollywood Actress Sonam Kapoor...



Sonam Kappor in Elie Saab Haute Couture Spring 2014: Indian Bollywood actress and model Sonam Kapoor wore a STUNNING black silk organza ball gown with black sequin applique from Elie Saab's Spring/Summer 2014 Haute Couture collection. I LOVED this gown from the minute I saw the collection--in photos and video. And wondered when and who, would ever wear this fantastic $100,00+ costing Haute Couture creation. Well, wonder no more...






Flawless: Sonam looked every bit a COUTURE Star in this gown tonight at Cannes; a definite TEN!





Hilary Swank in Atelier Versace: "The Homesman" actress Hilary Swank, loves a good shirred, draped and body-clinging gown...and she didn't disappoint tonight. Swank wore a white silk crepe-back satin one shoulder gown with gathered criss-cross midriff and...






Draped back cowl detail. It is a perfect dress to showcase Hilary's very athletic and muscled shoulders and back...





NIKOLAKI Cowl Back: It also reminds me of a couple of gowns in my NIKOLAKI collection from several seasons ago which was worn by...






 Haylie Duff in NIKOLAKI vanilla-colored silk jersey one shoulder gown with draped cowl back and leather midriff

 Also...




 This red silk crepe-back satin bias-cut gown with back cowl-draped detail from my NIKOLAKI Spring 2009 Collection



Continuing with the Cannes Couture Gals...



Adriana Lima in Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2013: Brazilian Supermodel Adriana Lima walked "The Homesman" Premiere at 2014 Cannes in this strapless blush pink with black waistband gown from French fashion designer Alexandre Vauthier's Fall 2013 Haute Couture collection.







Adriana Lima in Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2013 Haute Couture: Adriana looked super-sexy in this dress. But then again, Adriana could look super-sexy in a garbage bag. If there was any critique, it's that red lipstick; it aged her.









Svetlana Khodchenkova in Christian Dior RTW Fall 2014: Russian film and TV actress Svetlana Khochenkova wore an emerald green crew-neck sleeveless gown from Christian Dior RTW Fall 2014 collection. The gown was simple, classic and very well made. It also featured a semi-"Watteau" back. I thought that this was PERFECTION. Simple and GORGEOUS.
