Celebrities in Vintage: Emilia Fox in 1957 Christian Dior

Emilia Fox looks fantastic in a 1957 Christian Dior dress.  Although this dress screams 1950s, it looks very modern on Ms. Fox when paired with the green clutch and shoes.  A very fresh color combination.  The are many style elements of this dress that tell us it is from the 1950s.  The wide scoop neckline, and wide empire waist band were very fashionable during the 1950s.  The bracelet length sleeves, which were styled to showcase a fabulous bracelet, and thus their name sake. The tea length full skirt (which of course would have been worn with a tulle crinoline in the 1950s) is probably the most signature of the 1950s styles.  And of course, sherbert colors like this peachy coral, were the color trend of the 1960s.

Celebrities in Vintage: Anna Friel in vintage Jean Desses

Anna Freil in vintage Jean Desses  Really, that dress is vintage?  Isn’t it amazing how modern Anna Freil looks in this dress?  If no one had told me, I would never have guessed it was from 1958.  The peacock blue color is so fresh, and the architectural neckline, so contemporary.  I guess this just shows how trends all come back around.  This vintage Jean Desses dress from 1958 was just as stylish, and on trend over 50 years ago, as it is today!

The star’s vintage Christian Dior dress, which divided fashion critics at the Oscars, was sold for a phenomenal sum to a couture collector.

Natalie Portman’s star status proved valuable to couture dress dealers Rare Vintage yesterday, as the vintage Christian Dior gown she wore to the Oscars last month sold for $50,000 at auction.

The company, who Natalie borrowed the dress from, put it up for auction on their site 1stdibs.com once it had been returned, and must have been pleased with the result, with a London-based couture enthusiast getting their hands on the exquisite piece.

Disappointing Vintage at the Oscars

Every year I look forward to the Oscars, not for the awards but for the red carpet.  The elegant gowns, or wild fashion statements, both are equally as exciting to me.  The oohs, and aahs, or huh? as the celebrities try to make the “Best Dressed List”, or one up each other in their uniqueness, originality, exclusivity, and appeal.

You’d think this would make a vintage dress high demand on the Red Carpet, since it tends to exhibit all of these qualities.  Vintage dresses are one of a kind, hard to find, different from what fashion designers are making now, wearable, and well made to flatter the female figure.  You would think this is exactly what every celebrity walking down the red carpet would want.  But apparently not.

IT’S A FRIENDLY FASH-OFF!

The fashion press may still be swooning over last night’s Golden Globes but it wasn’t the only red carpet welcoming stylish celebs over the weekend.

Rachel Bilson and Estelle also caught our attention after stepping out in vintage-inspired looks at the 2012 Art of Elysium Heaven Gala in LA.

We rarely see Rachel looking everything less than perfect but she really stepped up her game in this ladylike dress. Textured with feathers, chiffon and sparkles, this pretty frock incorporated spring’s hottest trends.

British singer Estelle, who performed at the event, was first to arrive.

She looked beautiful wearing a vintage Chanel dress from Decades, who hosted the grand soiree.
