Rachel Zoe's Dreams Were Filled With Karolina Kurkova Cream!

Or rather, Rachel's dreams were filled with visions of Karolina Kurkova's GLOWING golden Met Gala backless gown weeks before its debut!

Rachel Zoe recently expressed:

“I spent a lot of nights dreaming about what I wanted it to look like… [but the headdress] happened literally the day before [I thought] ‘What can I add to really take it to the next level?’ So we made the turban-slash-head-wrap to give it that deco-glamour that [Elsa] Schiaparelli was so known for.”

Rachel also gushed how Karolina was like, the best human coat hanger, ever:

“Obviously when you put something on Karolina, it’s even better because it’s on Karolina.”

Truth! Plus, if Karolina didn't make the golden material gloriously shine, she wouldn't be a very good model, now would she!

We are UBER impressed at Zoe's en-pointe design skills…

Emily Blunt Chills Us With Her Wintry, Watery Glow

Filed Under: Canadialand Fashion Smashion Emily Blunt

Brrr! That stare is ICE COLD! And positively piercing…

The effortlessly elegant Emily Blunt shimmers like a winter wonderland mermaid caught in a GORGEOUS nautical, backless ~~net~~ dress on the summer issue of Canada's Glow magazine!

Within the mag's pages, Emily discusses her career, how she had planned on studying languages at university before being spotted by an agent, and her thoughts on beauty.

The versatile actress expressed:

“I love imperfection. I love seeing that every line on someone’s face has come from something. I wonder about the story behind the liners on the face. I think that is real beauty. To me, the most beautiful people are the most dynamic, vibrant, happy people. Personality comes through in your eyes, skin, the way you move and smile. People who spend too much time trying to look perfect lose some sort of magic.”

Oh, such truth! Plus, how can your inner beauty shine when it has a layer of chemicals to break through??

Elizabeth Banks was going for a more retro feel at the What to Expect When You're Expecting premiere Monday night.

The actress went for a feminine flair wearing a red Alexander McQueen gown with black accents.

What really stood out for us though, was her cute McQueen unicorn skull knucklebox clutch.

It's the perfect balance of fierce and pretty!

In case you haven't seen Marc Jacobs' outfit from Monday night's Met Gala, you can check it out in all its glory (above). It certainly is a sight to see.

The fashion designer walked the red carpet wearing nothing more than a black lace shirt dress over white boxer shorts. And of course we can't forget his jeweled-encrusted Pilgrim shoes and black murse.

Naturally, the question on everyone's mind was 'why?' and the answer's quite simple really. MJ said:
