Runway Report: Georges Hobeika Spring 2014 Couture

Georges Hobeika is a designer that I show a lot of love for on this site because his press office has always been so lovely and willing to help me out and in fact they got me all the images from the runway for this post within hours of the show on Tuesday, and for that I thank them! A delicate airy garden was the look that Georges Hobeika was going for in his Spring 2014 Couture collection and I do think that he really achieved this because even his most structured of looks really seemed light and airy. It was like watching nature come to life on the verge of a bight dewy spring morning, With a color palate of pastel powder pink, lemon yellow, peach, pistachio, white, and lilac there was not a heavy dark look in the bunch. This is exactly what I want to see in a spring couture collection. None of the looks here would look out of place at an extravagant wedding seated outdoors in a lavish English garden amongst the roses, wisteria, and foxgloves. I can picture a host of the worlds most elegant women wearing this collection including Emmy Rossum, Ahna O'Reilly, Jayma Mays, Zhang Ziyi, Keirnan Shipka, Anna Kendrick, Lupita Nyong'o, Olga Kurylenko, Emilia Clarke, Lily Collins, and a host of Asian actresses wearing this collection and I really can't wait to see these gowns and cocktail dresses take to major red carpets like the Academy Awards or the Cannes Film Festival this year. Bellow are my four favorite looks and the elegant women I can see wearing them.

'The Smurfs 2' LA Premiere Wish List

 The 'Smurfs 2' will undoubtedly have a star studded blue carpet at the Regency Village Theater in Hollywood, California on July 28th and I am sure that we will see quite a few blue looks on the red carpet. This wish list will consist of blue looks for all of the stars though I do believe that not everyone will show up in blue. For this premiere I would love to see Christina Ricci, who plays Vexy one of the blue smurfs, wear this amazing just presented Elie Saab Fall 2013 Couture cocktail dress. I think that this is a fun flirty look even though it is a couture creation. I believe that this dress would fit in perfectly at the animated/live action red carpet premiere. I would just pair this dress with the blue satin runway shoes and maybe some simple diamond earrings and Christina will rock the red carpet at her big Hollywood premiere.
 'Glee' actress Jayma Mays has been, sadly, missing from the red carpet this year. I love to see her take to the red carpet as she has a cute sense of red carpet dressing that varies from appearance to appearance, she can go from sexy vampiress in Alberta Ferretti one week to peachy goddess in Jenny Packham in another. For this premiere I have chosen to put Jayma in this classic shaped Erin Fetherson Fall 2013 RTW silk jacquard dress. I think that for a 'Smurfs' animated feature (even though Jayma's character Grace is one of the live action characters) that this dress is appropriate for Jayma without going too over the top. A simple blur Edie Parker clutch and a pair of gunmetal grey Jimmy Choo sandals will have Jayma back on the worlds Best Dressed lists.
And finally we have a wish for Katy Perry. The quirky star has already been busy promoting this film when the film held events during the 5th Annual Summer of Sony event held in Cancun, Mexico wearing brands like Monique Lhuillier, Dolce & Gabbana, and Zimmerman. Katy plays 'Smurfette' and when the first film premiered Katy took to the red carpet in a custom bustier mini dress by The Blonds with her characters face bedazzled onto the bodice. While I think that Katy will not play to the gimmicks this year I still think that there will be a quirky blue factor which is why I have chosen to put Katy in this blue and white Giambattista Valli Fall 2013 Couture cocktail mini dress. I think that it has been way to long since Katy has really brought a major quirky red carpet moment, lately opting for much more demure gown up looks, but this is the place for this cute youthful cocktail dress. Pair this dress with a pair of Christian Louboutin blue sandals and Katy will look absolutely amazing while taking to the red carpet at this July 28th Hollywood grand premiere.

2012 Emmy Awards: 'Glee' Cast Wish List

I hope to still see the 'Glee' girls at the 2012 Emmy Awards even though the show is not nominated for any of the major awards. In fact this year there are many new shows but the problem is that most of the shows are male dominated or the females are not fashionistas. Dianna Agron has turned into a fashionista from someone who only wore Carolina Herrera when she first arrived on the scene. I would love to see the white burned detail hater gown it a is still ethereal whilst being extremely edgy at the same time. A gold confetti Edie Parker clutch, gold strappy Jimmy Choo 'Lance' sandals, hair worn in a slight curly up do and simple make up would make this look sing.
Jayma Mays has been the unexpected breakout style star from 'Glee' and she has this sweet style and I think that this mint Jackie O-esque Reem Acra Resort 2013 gown would be an amazing look for the style maven. I think that this look that is not strapless and has a nude illusion netting that allows the lace detail to creep up over the top of the sweetheart neckline of the gown to add a very beautiful detail would look amazing against the milky skin tone and red hair that Jayma has. I think that she would work this gown and end up on everyone's best dressed list with only adding simple diamonds and silver strappy sandals or pumps.
Lea Michele is THE red carpet diva from the show and totally works looks that her character 'Rachel Berry' would run away screaming from. Regular readers of the blog will remember that I put this look in a wish list for Lea to wear just after it walked the runway. Now I am going to help the star style this amazing white Atelier Versace Fall 2012 Couture futuristic bustier gown. I think that Lea should keep it simple by carrying a white or silver clutch (no satin), donning a silver pair of t-bar sandals, and then adding an amazing pair of statement sapphire earrings and a small cuff by her go to red carpet jeweler Lorraine Schwartz.
Last year Naya Rivera attend the Emmy Awards and gave us an amazing modern interpretation of Audrey Hepburn in 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' wearing a stunning Loyd Klein gown which was leaps and bounds better than the Simin Couture emerald charmuse puff ball gown with a high slit that was a catastrophe on the 2010 Emmy Awards red carpet. This year I would love to see Naya wear this chocolate bronze Douglas Hannant Fall 2012 RTW strapless gown with a bow accented sweetheart neckline. Add a bronze clutch, black pumps, and some chocolate diamond earrings to complete this look.
