Welcome back to Michaela Jedinak’s and her commentary on the celebrity fashion winners and losers. Michaela comments regularly on a variety of current celebrities at events or about town and how their style chalks up in her typical “call them as she sees them” style.
If you are a regular reader, Michaela covered celebrity styles for LA-Story.com for the Academy Awards, Independent Spirit Awards, Grammys, SAG Awards red carpet reviews and the Gucci/Madonna Party at NYFW!) . Check out her site: www.joyofcolour.com
Celebrities Featured: Mary McCormack, Monique Lhuillier
Mary McCormack
Colour: Black is just not her best colour and she would be better advised to wear it as an accent colour rather than so close up and so much of it. It is totally suffocating her and you see the outfit before her- never a good sign.
Body shape: She is long-waisted, so she can take details in that area- but she seems to be as well fuller around her tummy area. Therefore wearing a belt and a pattern full skirt are not the right choice for her shape. You want to veil it more that put it out in the open.
Style: Though she has beautiful legs- it all looks too full in front. The black doesn’t go with her hair and skin and adding the little green broche has more of an irritating effect than anything else. It looks like an annoying fly landed on her upper chest- it looks like something that shouldn’t be there. Though adding contrast colour is very in, it doesn’t work here with this outfit on her.
Overall Rating: 2**( She does have nice legs in her tights!) Two Stars
Monique Lhullier
Colour: Black and white are not the best colours for her colouring, but considering that she manages to soften it by showing off her skin it looks ok. Plus we need to consider she has to blend it in with her wedding dresses at this show and not distract from them by wearing a dress that makes her look too stand out, and also it needs to be in line and look with her collection- which it does.
Bodyshape: She has more of a straighter body and therefore wearing a belt it creates the illusion of a waist. Plus wearing the belt at more of an Empire length it makes her legs appear longer. Her hem line is spot on for her height.
Style: She follows the fashion by adding contrasting colour with the choice of her Louboutin shoes- very clever adding colour where it doesn’t distract from what she has to say when speaking and what she has to present at the show.
Overall Rating: 5***** Five stars
