All Stars Shine in Fashion Week Ball, Anne Hathaway Dresses up Stunning as a Princess

On July 6, 2011 local time, Paris Fall 2011 Fashion Week “White Fairy Tale Love Ball” is absolutely star-studded. This ball is held in support of”The Naked Heart Foundation” at Chateau De Wideville in Crespieres, France. As a ball dedicated to fund raising, there entails a variety of celebrities in various beautiful dresses to attend, and this ball is of course no exception but more elegant less extravagant. As the theme of this ball is set to be a white fairy tale love ball, these celebrities have to follow the dress code. With all celebrities dressed as out of the fairy tales, the whole ball is fancy and glamorous, not only making a great highlight of the fashion week, but also expressing the elegant vibe of France. Now let us have a review on the dresses some of the biggest stars wear at the ball.

Anne Hathaway dresses in a purely white bosom gown decorated simply on the trim with sequins. With no other exaggerated decorative accessories but just a simple floral tiara on head, Annie looks like as graceful as the Snow White from a fairy tale with her perfectly charming look, stunning all people present. 

Though after all these years’ appearances at countless various fashion weeks, Olivia Palermo may sometimes look tired, still, she can be the fabulous queen if she truly wants to. With an extremely chic horse haired bag on hand, Olivia looks as elegant as a European goddess in the silver sling long gown, paired with large shiny silver necklace as a bonus decoration. Her whole look seems all fresh and charming which makes you can never stare at her enough. 

Super model Natalia Vodianova wears a red gown, looking as ravishing as ever. Though the red gown may totally cover her beautiful body line, but her delicate makeup coupled with her pretty face, plus her long blonde hair and a tiny silver tiara on head, makes her look like a perky and innocent little girl just out to pick some flowers. 

Emma Watson’s stylist Caroline Sieber proves that she totally has the ability to steal the spotlight from some hottest stars. Wearing a perspective shirt matched with high waist shorts, her great body line is totally brought out. And the cute little ball-like purse in her hand paired with the simple strap shoes make her look both sweet and sexy.

Celebrity Sisters in Different Styles

Sisters are not rare in the entertainment business, but to find these celebrity sisters in the same style seems like a mission impossible. Now we will present you a closer look at how these star sisters dress up differently. 

Paris Hilton and Nicky Hilton both enter the entertainment industry from being models and now they have both become the It Girls in the forefront of fashion. Though they are sisters and similar in many ways, their tastes in clothes differentiate greatly. One tends to be high-profile and uninhibitedly beautiful while the other dresses following a low-key but still extravagant code. Though each of their tastes is differently great, when they walk together in the streets for shipping, you may find Paris Hilton catch your eyes more easily with her high-profile style that often comes with various designs such as colorful patterns and bow design sling top. Paris’s blonde hair often makes her as shiny as a Barbie doll even in black dresses while Nicky digs pants more than dresses and can totally pull of simple jeans coupled with a beige coat.

 
As the most popular Simpson sisters in the music industry, Ashley has now topped her sister Jessica with her music achievement as well as her fashion style. One is always dressed to be perky and the other mature. Ashley’s bold style in trying new look may be the reason why she beats Jessica in dressing style. Jessica may still have a shot in competing with Ashley but she clearly put on some weight after breaking up with her boy friend while Ashley doesn’t change a bit after giving birth. 

Known as the successor of Britney, Hilary Duff looks sweet and adorable. She has been popular among American young audience since she began starring in the Disney Channel TV series “Lizzie McGuire” at 14. The movie version of the drama series also snatched a box office of $42 million, making Hilary one of the top teen idols. From their different looks, we can easily find that Hillary Duff looks much younger than her sister but her sister Haylie Duff has this charm of a more mature woman. Though being comparably short, Hilary can still pull off some best dresses. However, after the breaking up with her ex-boyfriend, Hilary seems to put on much weight but still her dress code in black help her a lot in looking slender.

Fashion Trend Setter Anna Wintour Won Legion d' Honneur -- French Highest Honor

Last week, fashion trend setter Anna Wintour was awarded French highest honor -- Legion d’Honneur. President Sarkozy presented the medal to her personally. 

It seems that in order to have an extraordinary achievement in fashion industry, you have to own an ordinary name, like Kate or Anna. Recently, apart from the two fabulous “Kate” being covered by every fashion magazine, news about Anna also steals much attention from the media. Apart from the incident of Lady Gaga mistook this big shot as her assistant and replied her congratulation text on Gaga’s winning of CFDA calling her “bitch”, Anna Wintour nailed French highest honor -- Legion d’Honneur last week. This award would have been a honor worth celebrating, but this honor is exactly the award her “arch-enemy” Azzedine Alaia once turned down. So it is very normal she may feel a little offended down in the bottom of her heart.

On the award ceremony, Anna Wintour wore a customized Chanel sapphire suit dress from 2011-2012 winter series, took off her sunglasses and changed her cool image into a super gentle look with the smile on her face through the whole ceremony. After all, this is not her ruling place. Before her, many famous designers including Karl Lagerfeld, John Galliano, and Ralph Lauren have been granted this award as well as her “arch-enemy” Azzedine Alaia, with whom they have no comments to offer to each other. Things between them went from bad to worse since 2009, when Anna Wintour erased Alaia’s name from the “Model as Muse” exhibition held in Met’s Costume Institute and Alaia called Anna the dictator. At Alaia’s new series conference, no one from Vogue US showed up and Alaia also played hooky in the curtain call to apologize to her staff in the kitchen until she was caught by the French Minister of Culture to complete the curtain call finally. 

When Sarkozy tried to present the award to the maverick Azzedine Alaia back then, this young designer who has once declared that he will never join any grand brand but instead set up his own brand turned it down by claiming that the reason for his rejection was not that he didn’t like Sarkozy like people guessed but that he simply did not like decoration (the award medal is presented in the form of medal). According to this weird genius designer, he thought himself nothing different from anyone around and he treated those around him with the same attitude except for his pets because they are kings and must be treated in the royal way.

And Harper was a name that we’ve loved for a long time for a couple of reasons. One of them is that Harper is an old English name which we love. And the other reason is that Victoria’s favorite book is To Kill a Mockingbird. The author was Harper Lee.” As for “seven”, many people assumed it had something to do with the number Beckham wears and he admitted, “I had so much luck around wearing that number wearing it for England and Manchester United. It was such an influential number throughout my career and a lucky number. But that wasn’t the main reason. The other reason was because it symbolizes spiritual perfection.” 

Later, Beckham and Victoria published the photos of their baby daughter in both of their Facebook and Twitter.

Whether it’s in the fashion show, press conferences or the dressing room, this little bottle can be seen everywhere. This bottle -- FIJI Water spring has even got more spotlight than some of the stars. As the exclusively standard drinking water for fashion week FIJI Water prepares a very suitable slogan – “Good taste is always in fashion.” It’s not just about clothes or accessories, but a persistent attitude to fashion.

How come this little bottle has so much magic to make all the big shots never put it down? Mysterious things usually have a mysterious origin, FIJI Water is no exception. Like its name, FIJI Water is a remote island called Viti Levu of Fiji Islands. There’s a primeval tropical rain forest on the valley there and around its edge stands an ancient giant volcano. Hidden in the depth of the volcano, there is vast water where the FIJI Water comes from. This extraordinary origin determines FIJI Water’s extraordinary future.

Its unique taste plus its stylish design of square bottle and hibiscus flower pattern make it of Hollywood star a favorite and the most frequent guest in major party and award ceremonies.
