Anna Wintour to wear the Resort 2014 Collections

This past year we have actually seen a lot more of Anna Wintour attending parties than we have in the past. It used to be Met Ball and CFDA Events were the only time that we saw the infamous Vogue editor on the red carpet but this year we have seen her out and about at other events showcasing her signature style. Anna may be the woman who gets to dictate to the world how they must dress for the coming season but she always takes the runway looks that suit her lady like style or have things modified to suit her style. This black and blue Carolina Herrera Resort 2014 cocktail dress is a total Anna dress and as she and Carolina have an out of office fashion relationship I could definitely see Mrs Wintour wearing this for a cocktail event or even during Spring 2014 RTW Fashion Week.

 Anna Has already scooped up one Oscar de la Renta Resort 2014 dress which she wore with a scooped up Marc Jacobs Resort 2014 cropped jacket to the 2013 CFDA Awards (pictured left) and I am sure that this will not be the only dress from the designers Resort 2014 collection that we will see Mrs Wintour wear. I think that this navy blue and white plaid Oscar de la Renta Resort 2014 dress for a normal day inside the Vogue offices deciding on layouts and which looks will be featured in the next issue.

And last but not least I have my dark horse wish for the chic Vogue editor which is this white and black printed Thakoon Resort 2014 dress with pleated side hem panels. Thakoon was a runner up in the 2006 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund competition which really launched his career and garnered Anna's attention. While she may not wear his pieces as often as those of Chanel, Prada, or Oscar de la Renta the young brand has certainly had a few outings from Anna. This dress would have to be modified so that the sheer panels are no longer sheer because I could not see Anna rocking any type of sheer panels.

Olivia Palermo to wear the Resort 2014 Collections

Olivia Palermo has been giving Miranda Kerr a run for her model money in the street style department lately stepping out in several absolutely fabulous ensembles while traveling and out and about in NYC. I think some of the Resort 2014 collections would help add a boost to her street style and help boost her to the Best Street Style Award win. First we have this green and brown printed Carven Resort 2014 shirt dress. I think that this is something that Olivia would look absolutely stunning wearing as she runs around New York from designer showroom to designer showroom. I could see Olivia pairing this dress with her Valentino 'Rockstud' python dome bag and a pair of Zara multi-strap camel sandals to complete this business ready fashion forward look.

I thought that this Emilio Pucci Resort 2014 ensemble which consists of a coral blouse and a pair of baby pink pants would also be a great choice for Olivia as it is a little more casual and easy to do a large amount of running as she goes from the office, to lunch, to a photo shoot. I think that this look will most likely be scooped up for a photocall during the Venice, Toronto, or Rome Film Festivals but Olivia would look just as good as any Hollywood actress wearing this. Where Olivia would have the upper hand is in her top notch styling which I could see including her raspberry Sofia Coppola for Louis Vuitton handbag and a pair of Sergio Rossi 'Oberoj' multi colored and patterned sandals to complete this amazing ensemble for Olivia.

In April, Olivia Palermo attended a Louis Vuitton boutique opening in Munich, Germany as well as being a regular at the Louis Vuitton runway shows. These events have brought me to choose this flirty BOHO Louis Vuitton Resort 2014 yellow dress as my final wish for the sartorial diva. Olivia can either be very Upper West Side chic or Flirty with more of a European BOHO inspired look which is were my inspiration for this ensemble comes from.  A Chloe 'Marcie' light brown leather bag and Lanvin satin crisscross sandals would be the perfect look for a casual day off of sightseeing and lunches around the city.

Michelle Obama to wear the Resort 2014 Collections

In today's Resort 2014 wish list I am sending out good vibes for American designers to dress the First Lady of the United States, Michelle Obama. Mrs. Obama is one of my favorite ladies to see take to the world stage because she does have quite the sense of style and is the perfect mane quin to represent American fashion and designers. One designer that I am surprised the First Lady has not donned in the past is famed evening wear designers Badgley Mischka. While she may not have worn the brand in the past this vibrant purple to fuchsia ombre-esque Badgley Mischka Resort 2014 gown with a beaded bodice would be a perfect look for Michelle for the likes of a State Dinner or other formal White House function.

Following the glamorous evening gown I have a look for when the First Lady stand behinds a lectern and speaks during functions that are hosted at the White House and beyond. This Carolina Herrera Resort 2014 ensemble which consists of a black halter neck top with white and gold floral beading paired with white wide leg trousers would be a great look for the Michelle. She is the first First Lady in decades that has taken the liberty of showing off her toned arms and shunning the stereotypical "First Lady Suit" that her formers wore for almost all public appearances and for that I thank her because she really has kept the last 4 1/2 years interesting always keeping the world on their feet as they wait to see what the First Lady will wear next.

One thing that we usually don't see from the First Lady is a stray from classic style evening wear for State Dinners and other formal political functions which is a shame because there are a number of printed designs that would look amazing on Michelle, case and point this amazing black, white, and blue Christian Siriano Resort 2014 ball gown with a geometric lined printed skirt. This is an amazing look and I really have no doubts that it will be picked up for someone to wear to a premiere or awards show but I think that Michelle Obama would look absolutely 'Fierce' to steal the designers signature term for an event like the Kennedy Center Honors wearing this fabulous design.

And finally we have a tropical printed silk chiffon button down blouse and a pair of white trousers with a blue waistband and tuxedo stripe from the Rachel Roy Resort 2014 collection. This look is a typical look for the First Lady when she is out visiting Schools, Veterans, or any other real casual appearance. The laid back breezy look is a great way that the Michelle tries to stay accessible to the public instead of wearing stuffy clothing all the time.

Miranda Kerr to wear the Resort 2014 Collections

Miranda Kerr had the Best Street Style Award in lock last year with several amazing sidewalk style looks this year it seems the stunning Victoria's Secret model has a little competition from Olivia Palermo, Beyonce, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and I have a feeling that it will be a close race to the bitter end. Today I'm going to bring you a few looks that would help boot Miranda up on the Best Street Style list. This blue floral A.L.C. Resort 2014 would be an absolutely amazing pick for Miranda for when she just steps out of her New York City apartment to run some errands like grocery shopping and taking her adorable son Flynn out on a play date. Not one to usually forgo a pair of stilettos I would actually have Miranda wear a pair of black sandals and carry a blue 3.1 Phillip Lim 'Pashli' tote and a pair of oversized sunglasses would complete this amazing look.

In the Resort 2014 collections Marchesa released a contemporary diffusion line named Marchesa Voyage which is designed with the same woman in mind that purchases the luxe evening wear from the main label as well as the Notte by Marchesa (the lower priced evening wear line) at a much more affordable cost to them. Having worn a stunning Marchesa dress at the 2011 Met Gala as a guest of the brand I would say that she is one of the women that they had in mind as a client for this collection especially after seeing this amazing Marchesa Voyage Resort 2014 zipper embellished dress. I could see Miranda wear with a white blazer a pair of white pointy toe Manolo Blahnik pumps and a blue and black Jason Wu 'Jourdan' satchel making the perfect look for running around the city from meeting to meeting as she runs her empire.

In an appearance on 'Good Morning America' earlier this year Miranda Kerr donned a stunning Mary Katrantzou printed pencil dress and looked absolutely perfect for her interview. For that dress Miranda actually did not pick the original runway look as it was extremely covered up and over the top but waited for the commercial version of the dress to come out. This is the very first Resort collection from Mary Katrantzou which shows her much more commercial side. This look presented on her normal Fall or Spring runway would have most likely been completely embellished but this look is just printed silk and would look amazing on Miranda as she runs around New York City promoting herself and Victoria's Secret. In fact I would actually add the same orange Alexander McQueen 'Heroine' handbag and blue pumps that she is pictured wearing in the picture on the left to complete a perfect look for promoting herself.

Last but not least we have another favorite look from all the Resort 2014 collections, this one courtosey of Peter Pilotto. Why is this one of my favorites? Well I love the mix of structure, draping, and color blocking as well as the designers rare departure from mixed media prints. This is another great look for Miranda to wear as she runs around the city from business meeting to business meeting. This is a very professional look which Miranda pulls off like anything else that she wears. A pair of white pointy toe Manolo Blahnik pumps and a blue Prada 'Pyramid Accordion'  frame bag would be the perfect finishing touches to this amazing look.

Dita von Teese to wear the Resort 2014 Collections Wish List

Dita von Teese the Queen of Fetish and Burlesque dancing made a welcome red carpet return earlier this year. Dita has always been one of my favorite ladies to see grace the red carpets and is one of the few people who can pull off the complete pin-up ensemble. So this year instead of just doing a single '10 Best of the Resort 2014 Collections' post I am going to show four looks for a celebrity that makes a lot of red carpet appearances but does not get featured on here often. Up first we have the Carolina Herrera Resort 2014 collection with this amazing black gown with sheer sleeves with white beading. Dita would rock this look for any number of gala appearances that she makes.

When I saw this powder blue Marchesa Resort 2014 Grecian draped dress I thought of how light and airy it would look on Dita who normally wears very structured ensembles and this ethereal gown would be a welcome variation to her normal ensembles. The usual Marchesa Resort 2014 collection is just as large as any other runway collection but this year a modest 14 look garden inspired collection was presented and this powder blue gown will most likely be the most fought over look from the collection as it is a classic Marchesa style. Dita should finish this look with a silver Judith Leiber clutch, a pair of silver Christian Louboutin sandals, as well as sapphire and diamond jewelry and Dita will have the perfect look for a red carpet event.

Up next I have a stunning Mary Katrantzou Resort 2014 strapless cocktail dress. The funky London based designer released her very first Resort collection this year and there are definitely some major red carpet moments held within. This amazing window pane rose full skirted cocktail dress with this amazing dress has to be one of my favorite out of all the Resort collections as it is awesomely amazing and so stunning. This dress is very 50's in style and the print only adds to the amazingness of the ensemble. On Dita that this cocktail dress would just come to life with a pair of red Christian Louboutin pumps.

And last but not least is a stunning Zac Posen Resort 2014 floral patterned cocktail dress. This dress is totally 40's/50's influenced by the way of the 1980's. I think that this dress is actually very similar to the black velvet Ulyana Sergeenko Couture dress that Dita wore to the 2013 amFAR Cinema Against AIDS Gala during the Cannes Film Festival. I think that this dress would totally surpass the Ulyana dress solely based on the fact that it is not a standard black dress. Complete this ensemble for Dita with a pair of amazing crystal encrusted Christian Louboutin pumps and some amazing Chopard diamond jewelry and this will make international red carpet best dressed lists.

Valentino Fall 2013 Couture Presentation Wish List

 Valentino Fall 2013 Couture will most likely be the last celebrity filled front row presentation during Paris Couture Fashion week only to possibly be added will be the new Viktor & Rolf couture show that will take place immediately after the Valentino show next Wednesday July 3rd. After her Academy Awards dress switch up drama (she as supposed to wear Valentino Couture but instead showed up in Prada, the Valentino then went on to be worn by Nicole Kidman during Cannes) Anne Hathaway has brought a whole new edgy blonde look and seems to have mended the relationship with the historic fashion house. If she were to attend the Fall 2013 Couture presentation next week this black ans white school girl inspired Valentino Fall 2013 RTW dress is what I would recommend for her. This dress is classic and not too over the top for Anne. Complete the look with a pair of black pumps, a black clutch, and a pair of black and silver aviator sunglasses and Anne will have a chic elegant ensemble to sit front row at the Valentino show.

 While it may not have been my favorite look from Carina Lau earlier this year she stepped out in a red silk Valentino Fall 2012 Couture long sleeved bell shaped gown, much better suited for Tilda Swinton or Queen Raina of Jordan than herself, but still look pretty and I am hoping to see her attend the Valentino Fall 2013 Couture presentations to see if she can get her hands on anything for the Chinese awards season this fall. To do so I would love to see Carina wear this head to toe Valentino Spring 2013 Couture ensemble. I think that the actress who pulls off sophistication so well would look grand in this white long sleeved gown with a sheer embroidered yoke and a classic knee length paired with the runway white lace pointy toed pumps. Sweep her hair into a simple daytime up do and maybe add a white leather clutch to the look and Carina will have the look to beat front row.

Milla Jovovich has not had the best red carpet year this year wearing a lot of things that just do not flatter her body or are just plain ugly. One relief to that was her ruffled Valentino Spring 2013 Couture gown worn to the amFAR Cinema Against AIDS gala during the Cannes Film Festival last month. I usually love when Valentino and Milla pair up to give us a grand red carpet moment and I would find it only fitting that she sit front row to scope out possible looks for the red carpet. This tone on tone blue Valentino Fall 2013 Couture pleated dress had to have been one of my favorite pieces from that collection and it still surprises me that Keira Knightley, Zoe Saldana, or Hilary Swank has not scooped it up for any red carpet or promotional event but Milla would look stunning wearing it on her way into and sitting front row at the Valentino Fall 2013 Couture presentation. Finish the look with a midnight blue clutch, a pair of blue closed toe pumps, and loose wavy hair and Milla will have the perfect look for the presentation next week.

Elie Saab Fall 2013 Couture Presentation Wish List

Carina Lau was in Cannes last month to promote her film 'Bends' and to do so she took some amazing Elie Saab couture creations for a spin. I can not recall Carina sitting front row at an Elie Saab show and having recently been taking the brand for a few red carpet test drives I would love to see her attend the Fall 2013 Couture presentation on July 3rd. This teal Elie Saab Fall 2013 RTW dress is perfect for Carina to wear to sit front row and hold court over all the stunning designs that I am sure will undoubtedly take to the runway during this show. Finish with a pair of lace Elie Saab Spring 2013 Couture pumps and Carina will look stunning on her first Elie Saab front row trip.

Queen of Burlesque Dita von Teese is a HUGE fan of Elie Saab and I am a huge fan of Dita in Elie Saab so after making a grand red carpet return during the Cannes Film Festival wearing an Elie Saab Couture cocktail dress. I am hoping that she will make a trip to Paris next week to take in the spectacle that will without a doubt be full of glamorous red carpet ready gowns and cocktail ensembles. For Dita to sit front row I would love to see her wear this black embellished Elie Saab Spring 2013 Couture cocktail dress. I do not think that Dita has ever met a black dress that she hasn't liked complete the look with a pair of go to Christian Louboutin pumps and her signature red lip and Dita will have a look that is perfect for front row at a couture fashion show.

The Queen of Elie Saab title, while with very high competition of Dita von Teese, definitely goes to Fan Bingbing who is a frequent at Elie Saab fashion shows sitting front row just looking for that next gown for her next red carpet appearance. For the Fall 2013 Couture presentation I would love to see Fan wear this amazing lemon yellow Elie Saab Fall 2013 RTW dress. I think that this dress would look amazing against Fan's fair colored skin. Complete with a gold clutch and a pair of nude pumps will make another great look for her and the brand.

Another lady who stunned at the Cannes Film Festival wearing not only one but two glam Elie Saab creations was Zhang Ziyi and I would love to see her attend the Fall 2013 Couture presentation to scope out potential future red carpet looks. To do so I would love to see her wear this amazing blue and white color blocked Elie Saab Pre-Fall 2013 cap sleeved a-line dress. Zhang is one of the few that come to mind when I see this dress and it would be a perfect look for her to snatch up to sit front row. Finish with a pair of black peep toe pumps and Zhang will stand out in a modern yet still elegant ensemble at the Elie Saab Fall 2013 Couture presentation next week.
