FabSugar — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 02:30:08 -0800

This week was bursting with beautiful looks thanks to the Rome Film Festival. While some dazzled in their fancy frocks, others preferred to keep it more casual and flirty. Ashley Tisdale shined in her fun embellished Jenny Packham dress, while Margherita Missoni rocked in a pair of shiny harem pants. There's no doubt that each starlet stood out in her unique ensemble, but which look do you prefer? Source

Who Wore It Better? Missoni Sequined Vest

Ashley Olsen and Margherita Missoni are friends, so it's funny that both of them wore Missoni's sequined vest. I guess some friends do dress alike! Ashley first wore it at an amFAR event back in January, with barely any accessories. Underneath it, she wore a white, silk floor-length dress that covers her shoes. Margherita opted for a little more dazzle when she wore the vest at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival. The dress she paired it with is also white with small pink dots, and her oversized clutch is metallic gray. She also threw on bangles, earrings, and a necklace. Ash is characteristically understated, and Margherita is accessorized like always. Who do you think wore it better? Source

Ashley! I love love love her simplicity.

Margherita — way to spice things up with offbeat accessories.

Neither — gasp!

Both of them look nice.

Simply Fab: Ileana Makri for OrphanAid Africa Bracelet

Before I go on about this Ileana Makri for OrphanAid Africa Bracelet ($640), I would like to call your attention to the reason it was created. Non-profit organization OrphanAid Africa supports orphans in Ghana and has been connected to fashion from its inception. Founder Lisa Lovatt-Smith was a former editor at Vogue magazine and designer Margherita Maccapani Missoni has given her full support by visiting Ghana and encouraging the fashion world to participate in the project.

Proceeds of this African-inspired bracelet, made of 18K gold and pavé diamonds, will help the aforementioned organization. It also comes in pink, with a single diamond ($240). If you're in the position to help, it's a worthy cause.

Behind the Seams: Bergdorf Goodman Welcomes Missoni's Fall Line

FabSugar — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 13:00:22 -0700

Last night, when the doors of Bergdorf Goodman in NYC were closed to customers, they were opened for Margherita Missoni and her friends. Actress Joy Bryant, Bergdorf Goodman women’s fashion director, Roopal Patel, and Mickey Boardman all celebrated Missoni's Fall '08 collection together.

Margherita looked more mature than ever in a peach dress and layered tribal necklaces. Missoni's floral and zigzag confections were shown off by two models, who circled the store, allowing upper-echelon customers to touch and observe. So, observe!

Celebrity Style: Mary-Kate Olsen

Mary-Kate looked classic bohemian Mary-Kate for the Annual Winter Dance at the American Museum of Natural History in NYC. Leave it to MK to Olsen-ify the floral trend by wearing fur and a snakeskin clutch. Even though her friends Margherita Missoni, Derek Blasberg, and Arden Wohl are towering over her, she still manages to steal the spotlight.
