Just like with
Ellen Pompeo and her SAG Awards gown, for Marion Cotillard and her Oscars gown, it was love at first sight. "I've worked with him several times,"

Celebrities and fashion editors alike convened in Paris this week for the decadent debut of
Spring couture season. Chanel models
sauntered out of a giant tweed jacket, the Dior runway
popped with color, Valentino
said his last goodbye, and more.
As much as we love looking at the fashion on the catwalk, there's plenty to admire from the front row, especially with headliners like Diane Kruger, Victoria Beckham, Blake Lively, and the venerable Anna Wintour in attendance.

I've been going through
Gossip Girl withdrawals so I was happy to see Blake Lively, aka Serena van der Woodsen, at Jean Paul Gaultier's Spring Couture show. The actress is new to the runway scene, but she was looking all the pro in her Jean Paul Gaultier dress. I'm baffled by the strange leather piece around her neck so I gave her something more pretty and conventional.

After 45 years of dressing women impeccably, Valentino said his last goodbyes yesterday with one final couture collection.
The exit was consummately Valentino. Uma Thurman, Lucy Liu, and newly-appointed Valentino designer Alessandra Facchinetti witnessed a parade of bright bubble coats, tiered gowns, floral prints and ladylike suiting.
