Influential International Style: Kate Winslet

image
Kate Winslet made a serious splash this awards season, and I'm not just talking about taking home all the most coveted hardware and, quite remarkably on its own, being nominated in supporting and leading categories for two different films. On the red carpet, Kate made heads turn. Favoring solid colors and classic shapes, Kate always picks looks that flatter her hourglass figure. Her style is defined by clean lines (she is rarely photographed in patterns) but carries just enough interest to keep us constantly wondering what she'll wear next. Whether its Zac Posen, Dolce & Gabbana, Carmen Marc Valvo or Escada, she always looks good.

New York Fashion Week Runway: Carmen Marc Valvo Has Eveningwear Squared Away

image
Renowned for the unique details he incorporates into eveningwear, Carmen Marc Valvo built upon this trademark for his Spring 2009 collection, choosing to focus on one detail in particular- the square. Body-con woven ribbon dresses, gorgeous metallic leather square skirts, eye-catching patent square sequin appliques, and geometric basket woven details transformed pretty dresses into show-stopping numbers, and swimsuits were given the square treatment as well. Taking a break from the rigidity of the square shape, black microfiber twisted jersey dresses added fluidity to the collection with the perfect balance of draping and tailoring, and a pair of pleated trousers ensured that Valvo's signature elegance will travel from ballroom to boardroom in style.
Colors: black, ivory, canary yellow, grass green
Celeb Sightings: Emmy Rossum, Tamara Tunie, Ingrid Seynhaeve
