Runway Report: ZAC Zac Posen Fall 2015 Ready-to-Wear

The space race in the 1960's along with the photographs of William Klein served as the inspiration that Zac Posen looked to as he created his ZAC Zac Posen Fall 2015 RTW collection. Of the ZAC Zac Posen woman for Fall 2015 Zac Posen said "Her wardrobe is infused with lush fabrications and feminine silhouettes with a stylized focus is on street-wear without minimizing the sartorial prowess." The colors and the patterns in the collection were strategically picked to evoke either space or the1960's, or both. All of the patterns in this collection are digitized versions of images taken from Posen's own Instagram account.

What I loved about this collection was that it really mixed cool with the classic Posen glamour. We see structural Zac Posen gowns on the red carpets all the time, and this collection makes those style accessible. The day wear is chic with an edge. Some of my favorite pieces are the black leather and fur jacket, the red to black ombre cocoon style coat, the light blue velvet gown, the black and green ombre structural dress and the dahlia print caped gown. Many of the pieces in this collection would enhance a wardrobe. I am also praying that the three gowns shown get a red carpet moment.

Runway Report: ZAC Zac Posen Fall 2014 RTW

 Ahead of New York Fashion Week starting on Wednesday Zac Posen showed his lower line ZAC Zac Posen's Fall 2014 Ready-to-Wear collection. I love that Zac brings the structure and glamour of his high line to a more accessible price point to more women who can not afford $1,000+ on a dress. A very fall color palette of terracotta, pumpkin, charcoal, stone, dove grey blue, lavender, and snow white mixed with the structured silhouettes of classic Zac Posen designs made for a sophisticated collection. I can picture a host of starlets wearing this collection on the red carpets, doing interviews on talk shows, and just out and about running errands. My four favorite looks and the women that I want to see wearing these looks on the red carpet are posted below. Come back at this time tomorrow for some big news that I have that I am really excited to tell you all but I am going to wait.

2014 Golden Globe Awards: Hostesses Amy Poehler and Tina Fey Wish List

 The dynamic duo of Amy Poehler and Tina Fey will be back hosting the 2014 Golden Globe Awards on Sunday night after an amazing triumph at the task last year. During last years Awards Amy wore a selection of looks that came custom made courtesy of Stella McCartney. While she looked fantastic in all of those looks I am hoping to see Amy really shine in different looks during this years ceremony changing designers as she changes looks. For the red carpet I have picked this amazing Caribbean waters blue Georges Hobeika Spring 2014 RTW gown with a sheer and embellished bodice. Amy looks best when she puts the focus oh her upper half and simple on the bottom as that will keep her shape beautifully and lengthen her figure. For the opening of the show I think that this nude Naeem Khan Spring 2014 RTW gown with an embellished bodice with cap sleeves and a simple chiffon skirt. Finish the night with a beautiful electric blue ZAC Zac Posen Spring 2014 RTW gown with a ruched top would be the perfect look for Amy to close the night off in.

Tina Fey has a better red carpet track record than her co-host Amy but then again Tina tends to wear just a lot of black. Like Amy, Tina stuck to one designer for her two looks that she wore during the 2013 Golden Globe Awards. She looked fantastic in both her L'Wren Scott designs but I would love to see Tina branch out into different designers throughout the night. For the red carpet I have chosen to put Tina in this off white Oscar de la Renta Spring 2014 RTW strapless gown. This gown would hug all of Tina's curves as well as make her look taller than she actually is. Next I am going into a more comfortable region for Tina with this black Andrew Gn Spring 2014 RTW gown with gold embellished birds and a sheer hem to add visual interest to this look. And to close out the selection I have picked this beige Alice + Olivia Spring 2014 RTW lace ball gown that features black leather straps to give Tina an impact to finish the night in.

'Diana' Premieres Wish List

Naomi Watts will start her journey to the 2014 Academy Awards soon as she starts to premiere her biopic 'Diana' based upon the life of the famed Princess Diana. From the promotional images that have come from this film the resemblance between the two is absolutely undeniable but I do not believe that Naomi will go down the imitation path during the promo tour for this film. I know for sure that 'Diana' will have a gala premiere in London on September 5th and I am guessing that it will also premiere in New York. For the New York premiere I would dress the blonde beauty in this structured ZAC Zac Posen Resort 2014 ink blue peplum dress. Naomi and Zac Posen are actually good friends and she wears his designs all the time so it will come a surprise to me if she doesn't pull out a look from him during the promotional tour for this film. Finish this look with a matching blue Judith Leiber clutch, a pair of black sandals, and some stunning Chopard diamonds would complete this perfect look for the New York premiere. For London, where I am expecting a huge fan turnout, I think that this cream draped Chanel Resort 2014 gown would be the perfect choice. I am absolutely in love with this absolutely stunning ensemble and I can't believe that it hasn't been snatched up but that may just be because it is on reserve for Naomi for this promotional tour. A Kotur white lace and gold 'Margo' clutch, a pair of gold Chanel sandals, a pair of pearl stud earrings, and a pearl wrist cuff and Naomi will have herself another stunning look for the 'Diana' peremieres.

2013 Emmy Awards: Oustanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series Wish List

Sometimes Amy Poehler isn't the most glamorous woman on the red carpet but she has had her moments and I am hoping that she has one of those moments on the red carpet at the 2013 Emmy Awards. Amy is once again nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for her role in 'Parks & Recreation.' I think that this bubblegum pick Badgley Mischka Resort 2014 simple gown with waist ruching and an embellished waist band. I think Amy is at her best when she wears something that isn't overworked and just a classic design. I think that this color would be the perfect way to infuse some modernity into the ensemble. A simple silver clutch and silver sandals as well as some select simple diamonds for her ears and wrist would complete this look for her for this years Emmy Awards.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus took home the 2012 Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for her HBO comedy 'VEEP' and is nominated again this year in the same category. At last years ceremony Julia wore a stunning maroon Vera Wang gown and looked the best that she ever had so I am wishing for the partnership to follow onto this years event. I think that this Vera Wang Spring 2014 Bridal mermaid gown with a floral pattern embroidery would be perfect for this event. I would change the gown from ivory to be a blue color so that the look doesn't come off as bridal but I love the shape for Julia. A black clutch, black sandals, and some simple diamond dazzlers would be the way to finish off this custom look.

Oh Lena Dunham what to do with you? I am NOT a fan of her style because she hasn't learned how to dress her body shape and its sad because I think if she could get it right that she would look beautiful. I think this blue ZAC Zac Posen Resort 2014 gown with a nipped waist and a hip peplum would look really elegant on Lena for the 2013 Emmy Awards. Keep the look simple with a black clutch, black pumps, and very simple jewelry and let Lena take some baby steps to making her way feeling more and more comfortable on the red carpet.

This year will be Tina Fey's sixth and final nomination for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for her role as Liz Lemon in the hit NBC comedy '30 Rock,' which ended its run earlier this year. I think that for this years awards show that this black rise fall Marchesa Resort 2014 gown would be perfect for Tina. With newer shows like 'Girls' and 'VEEP' I think that Tina isn't in the main line to win unless they give her the award because of the shows finale. A simple black clutch and black sandals will give Tina an awards show worthy look but one that isn't the most visually interesting. I hope that the comedy ladies don't let me down and work the Emmy's red carpet.

2013 Tony Awards Wish List Part 1

Anna Kendrick will be on hand Sunday night at the 2013 Tony Awards with duties to present during Broadway's biggest night. I will be at home with my family and friends taking in the event from the comfort of my couch tweeting about the dress and the performances. You may not know but I used to perform on stage while I was in high school so the Tony Awards have always been one of the awards shows that I most look forward too. Anyway back to Anna! She is not my favorite on the red carpet with her thick hair that is usually never styled into anything fabulous and her sometimes questionable taste I am hoping she doesn't let me down. Anna was nominated for a Tony Award for her one and only show on Broadway 'High Society' back in 1998 when she was only 14 years old. Now 15 years later will return to Radio City Music Hall to present another with a coveted Tony. I would love to see her do so wearing this bordeaux ZAC Zac Posen Fall 2013 RTW mermaid strapless gown. I think that this is a simple yet elegant option for Anna. Add a gold crystal embellished Judith Leiber clutch, a pair of strappy Jimmy Choo gold sandals, hair styled into a glam curly up-do, a yellow gold and diamond bracelet, and a pair of yellow gold drop earrings and Anna will wow me on the red carpet.

Former '30 Rock' star Jane Krakowski, who has a long relationship with Tony having been nominated for her roles in 'Nine' and 'Grand Hotel,' will be on hand Sunday night as a presenter at the 2013 Tony Awards. Jane has had a few moments in the past, most notably her Escada at the 2010 Emmy Awards, where she wows me. Well I think that if she were to snatch up this bubblegum pink J. Mendel Spring 2013 RTW strapless peplum gown that she would be back on the track to wow me again on the red carpet. Add some baubles like a silver Judith Leiber crystal encrusted clutch, pink and red Charlotte Olympia pumps, a dazzling diamond bracelet, and a pair of glamorous diamond chandelier earrings and Jane will most definitely have a winning red carpet look on her hands

Megan Hilty won a Tony Award on her NBC show SMASH in the series finale so it would only makes sense that she will be on hand on Sunday to present during the 2013 Tony Awards. Megan doesn't have that much on a red carpet repertoire so I have paired the up and coming red carpet gem with another red carpet up and comer. Georges Hobeika is one of my favorite emerging red carpet designers that celebrities are flocking to for amazing red carpet worth looks. Georges Hobeika has dressed the likes of Julianne Hough, Eva Longoria, Selena Gomez, and Emmy Rossum and I hope that we can add Megan Hilty to that list with this amazing teal Georges Hobeika Signature Fall 2013 RTW gown. I think that with Megan's curves, complexion, and hair color that this gown is 100% the perfect gown for her to wear. Complete with a pair of bronze pumps, a matching teal clutch, and a pair of glam Tiffany & Co diamond earrings and Megan will make her name known on the red carpet.

In her first Broadway credit 'A View From The Bridge' Scarlett Johansson won the Best Actress in a Play award wearing a stunning Elie Saab green gown in 2010. For her appearance at the 2013 Tony Awards as a presenter I am wishing that the stunning actress will will return to the brand and chose this white embellished lace Elie Saab Fall 2013 RTW gown. In the past year we have seen Scarlett wear a lot of black on the red carpet so the clean white gown would provide a stunning contrast to her recent dark looks. Add a bold pair statement earrings in bright red, blue, or green, a silver metallic clutch, and a pair of silver Jimmy Choo peep toe pumps would give Scarlett the amazing red carpet moment that I have been waiting for.

2013 Critics Choice Television Awards Wish List Part 1

 Next Monday, July 10, 2013, the Broadcast Television Critics Association will honor TV's best at the 3rd Annual Critics Choice Television Awards. Claire Danes is nominated for Best Actress in a Drama Series for her hit Showtime series 'Homeland.' For this awards show I would like to see Mrs Danes redeem herself after a few lackluster red carpet appearances. I think she can do so by donning this amazing electric blue J. Mendel Fall 2013 RTW asymmetrical gown. I think that Claire is among the small crop of celebrities that could pull this gown off. Complete this look with a pair of two stone drop Diamond earrings, a silver Ferragamo minaudiere, and Jimmy Choo silver 'Cosmic' sandals.

 Elisabeth Moss is also nominated for Best Actress in a Drama Series but for her AMC hit show, 'Mad Men.' I used to love Elisabeth Moss on the red carpet but in the past two years she has really gone off the deep end usually choosing hideous worst dressed worthy ensembles. One color I loved to see on Elisabeth was an emerald green and this is not a color that she often goes to anymore. Well I am wishing that she returns to the color by wearing this ZAC Zac Posen Fall 2013 RTW draped gown. I think that this gown would look absolutely fabulous wearing this stunning gown. Add a gold minaudiere, a pair of gold strappy sandals, and a gold cuff will complete this amazing ensemble.

I had already picked a gown for Emilia Clarke to wear for this event but unfortunately Nicole Kidman snatched up the other Chanel Resort 2014 white gown on the red carpet. Oh well as they say C'est la Vie. Emilia is nominated for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama for her role in the HBO series 'Game of Thrones.' This black and white gown, that I had also wanted to see worn by Diane Kruger, would look stunning on Emilia. Since the dawn of the new year Emilia has been experimenting wearing different designers since she had almost exclusively worn Chanel designs on the red carpet. Although I appreciate that she has started growing her wardrobe I would love to see Emilia go back home to Uncle Karl for her red carpet appearance for her big name events. To add the finishing touches for this amazing gowns I would add a pair of black Christian Louboutin crystal encrusted sandals, a black and silver Chanel minaudiere, a pair of Chanel Fine Jewelry rose earrings, and a Chanel Fine Jewelry cuff.

'The Host' Promotional Tour Premiere Wish List

Coming up we will be seeing a lot of red carpet queen and winner of the Red Carpet Diva of the Year Award 2 years running Diane Kruger on the red carpet as she promotes her latest film 'The Host.' I think that this promo tour will be like those of 'The Hunger Games' and 'The Twilight Saga' because this film is based on a novel by Stephanie Myers the author of the beloved 'Twilight Saga.' What does this mean? It means international photocalls and premieres from Korea and Tokyo to Rome and Moscow to London and Los Angeles. Well here are three looks that I would love to see Diane wear on the promotional tour trail. A black and white Giambattista Valli Spring 2013 Couture look would be perfect for a premiere in Madrid, Moscow, Tokyo, or Seoul with a pair of black sandals. This amazing Jason Wu Fall 2013 RTW ensemble would be perfect for Diane to wear for the London or Paris premiere with a pair of stunning Christian Louboutin pumps. And finally we have this stunning red silk Prabal Gurung Fall 2013 RTW one shoulder gown with a pair of strappy sandals which is what I am hoping to see on Diane during the LA Premiere of this film with some stunning Chopard diamonds. I know that whatever Diane wears I will undoubtedly fall in love with whatever she wears.

Saoirse Ronan is the other star of this film. The actress most known for her roles in 'Atonement,' 'The Lovely Bones,' and 'Hanna' has a pension for couture from the classic design houses as well as some emerging designers and fashion forward looks. The first look I would like to see her wear is this black Chanel Spring 2013 Couture dress for a premiere in Moscow or Tokyo with a pair of black pumps. This cream Valentino Spring 2013 Couture ensemble would be perfect for a London or Paris premiere paired with a pair of gold sandals. And last but not least we have this 30s style ZAC Zac Posen Fall 2013 RTW red gown with a built in cape for the LA premiere paired with another pair of gold sandals
