2008 National Television Awards: Rachel Stevens

BellaSugarUK — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 15:18:32 -0700

Gorgeous pop singer, Rachel Stevens arrived in a body-hugging black and grey Herve Leger off-the shoulder dress. Her quintessential and modern smouldering eyeshadow (that perfectly matches her frock) looks youthful and fresh against peachy cheeks and shiny nude lips. I also love how her rich, honey-toned highlights create an overall warmth to her skin. What are your thoughts on Rachel's red-carpet hair and makeup?Source

Who Wore It Better? Herve Leger Accent Bandage Dress

FabSugar — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 15:00:22 -0700

Gossip Girl Nicole Fiscella made a boldly hot statement when she wore Herve Leger's berry-colored accent bandage dress a few months back. Singer Leona Lewis made an equally loud gesture when she showed up to a benefit concert in Las Vegas in the same dress. While Nicole left the double straps up, Leona opted to create an off-shoulder effect with hers. Also, Nicole wore light gray pumps and a gray clutch, while Leona opted for deep purple shoes and gold jewels. Whose Herve Leger attempt is more successful? Source and Source

Nicole — She looks classy and youthful at the same time.

Leona . . . I love the purple shoes and gold bangles.

Neither — gasp!

Both of them look nice.

Hilary looked the most put together and downright sassy at the Manolo Blahnik Rodeo Walk of Style party. Her moody floral Chloe top is perfectly tamed by a Herve Leger pencil skirt and zip-up Manolos. But Hilary adds flash with a chain detail belt and her signature dangly earrings.

Hervé Léger Keeps It Simple For Spring

At Hervé Legér, makeup artist Val Garland described the look she created as "a little bit punk but in a Hervé Legér way." The design team and Garland's MAC team stumbled upon their perfect Spring 2009 look by accident, which is kind of punky in itself. "We did two looks [to show the Hervé Legér designers]. One was a really greasy smoky eye. Val was wiping it off and it left a ring, and they were like 'Stop right there! that's what we want!'" explained Senior Makeup Artist Ashley Dorsey. Aside from eyeliner, the look consisted only of MAC Select MoistureCover applied with an eyeliner brush, feathery mascara, and strobe cream on models' limbs.

For Val Garland's tips to get the look and more pictures from backstage,

Herve Leger Asymmetric Rosette Bandage Dress: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 08:00:22 -0700

I don't blame the designers at Herve Leger for sticking to the recipe. The bandage dresses have taken Hollywood by storm. His latest creation, the Asymmetric Rosette Bandage Dress ($1,690), has me in a tizzy. I love everything about this dress except for the eye-sore hunter green rosette. It reminds me of a badly placed party streamer. What are your thoughts?Take all of my Love It or Hate It Polls here! To post your selections go to the Love It or Hate It? group.

Who Wore It Better? Herve Leger One-Shoulder Dress

FabSugar — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 14:00:22 -0700

The Herve Leger obsession continues. Jenny McCarthy recently stepped out in Herve Leger's one-shoulder dress ($1,490) and wowed everyone with her fabulously taut bod. Reality star Heidi Montag had a tough act to follow but didn't let that stop her from also wearing the fitted dress to The Hills premiere party yesterday. Jenny kept her accessories minimal, while Heidi opted for white pumps and a fuchsia Prada clutch. Both ladies have small waists and well-endowed breasts, but which one pulls this look off more effortlessly? Source

Jenny . . . she looks stunning, just stunning!

Heidi — I love her funky accessories.

Neither — gasp!

Who Wore It Better? Herve Leger Bandage Dress

One of the pitfalls of wearing haute clothes in Hollywood is seeing a fellow celeb wearing the same thing, life is rough, huh? The Herve Leger bandage dresses have taken Hollywood by storm and it was soon time for us to catch a "spotted" moment. Christina Aguilera wore Leger's body-con number at LAX Nightclub in Las Vegas accessorizing with a leather jacket, leopard print platforms, and chunky rings. Amanda Bynes took the sleeker route pairing her party frock with a simple black clutch and matching heels at the US Weekly Hot Hollywood soiree. Who do you think wore it better? Source and Source

Christina's leopard-print heels take the cake!

I prefer Amanda's sleek and svelte look.

Neither — gasp!

Both of them look nice.
