Kate Beckinsale in Cloudy Erin Fetherston: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 09:00:22 -0800

Erin Fetherston is all about ethereal, fantastical frocks, and this white asymmetrical cloud-like dress from her Spring '09 collection is no exception. On the catwalk it was cinched with a pretty metallic purple belt, but Kate Beckinsale opted for an edgier look at the R&Y Augousti and Barneys New York dinner. Black and white is a great color combination and the actress wears it well. But what do you think about the cloud detail on the bottom? Does Kate pull it off or does she look immature?

This Week's Fab Favorite: Michelle Monaghan

FabSugar — Fri, 02 May 2008 16:00:39 -0700

Newcomer Michelle Monaghan had so many outstanding outfits this week, at first I didn't have the heart to choose one over the others. They were all Fabtastic, but ultimately it came down to this logic: This stunning satin, one-shoulder Erin Fetherston dress takes a characteristic from each of her earlier looks from the week and melds them harmoniously.
It's pitch black like the Monique Lhuillier dress she donned at the Made of Honor NYC premiere and adorned like the grey Lanvin frock she wore on TRL. So far, this girl has done no wrong. In fact, she's done more than just right with her choice of chunky necklace and caged sandals. I'll let Buzz assess her acting skills, but other actresses should fear her fashion sense because it's a force to be reckoned with.

New York Fashion Week, Fall 2008: Erin Fetherston

FabSugar — Sat, 02 Feb 2008 07:32:16 -0800

With a mixed celebrity audience: Anne Hathaway, boyfriend Raffaello Follieri, Gossip Girl Taylor Momsen, Rachel Zoe, and model Irina Lazareanu, Erin Fetherston tread into new waters.

The It designer, who in recent seasons has sent monochrome hippie nightgown-cum-dresses and ruffled girly-girl skirts down the runway in a palette of white, ivory, and shades of grey, added color . . . and even bold prints into the mix.

The feel was contemporary and everyday wearable — don't get me wrong, her trademark flowy gowns and floral head trimmings were still there, in numbers — but there were also tailored blazers, little everyday dresses and tunics.

I wonder if her recent line for Target has anything to do with the change?

Sneak Peek! Erin Fetherston for Target

FabSugar — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 14:00:22 -0800

Erin Fetherston's Target collection isn't supposed to hit stores until November 18, but in true Target form, some pieces are already available online, including the dress at left and a cute ivory cocoon coat.

This collection has been polarizing — either you Love It or Hate It — because of its super girly-girl feel. The peter pan collars, heart bags, and minidresses were all showcased during a (too) long introductory commercial that you probably caught if you watched The Hills last night.

Have a good long gaze at the collection below, and then spill: will you be hitting the Erin Fetherston racks at Target?

First Peek at Erin Fetherston for Target

FabSugar — Fri, 29 Jun 2007 11:40:33 -0700

One of our savvy sources snatched up some first glimpses of the next GO International designer collection for Target - the girlie girl of new designers Erin Fetherston. Due out in November, the collection is full of nightgown inspired frocks and flowy delights in kindergarten colors with sweet details like hearts and ruffles. I think they are a bit too little girlie, especially with all the freshly sophisticated looks for Fall. What do you all think?

And don't forget Libertine for Target will be hitting the racks next month!

New York Fashion Week, Fall 2007: Erin Fetherston

FabSugar — Mon, 05 Feb 2007 10:41:37 -0800

Relatively new to the runway, but definitely distinctive, Erin Fetherston's designs are what little big girls dream about. Super feminine and girly, while remaining modern, here is a collection that wisks you away to a beautiful boudoir floating in space. Fittingly, she named the collection “Wandering Stars."

The colors were neutral: black, grey, white and taupe but the collection felt far from drab with plump silhouettes and metallic sprinklings. The collection was all dresses, and reminded me of nightgowns you could wear out for a night on the town. Fabrics were light, sheers, tulles and chiffons, and heavy, velvet and brocades. Dreamy touches like the one shoulder and peter pan collars played up the youthful feel; bra tops on dresses added a subtle sex appeal. Prints and beading showed up in star and heart prints. All looks were escorted by grey sheer knit thigh highs and lovely beaded beanies.

My favorite look: A black velvet mini dress with sheer sleeves and neck; I love how skin plays peekaboo here. To see the rest of my New York Fashion Week Fall 2007 coverage click here.
