We first saw the look back in January with Amy Adams’ amazingly vivid Antonio Berardi dress at the SAG Awards. Since then, Adams and others, have opted for bold blue hues over the ole faithful black. Is this a preview of what’s to come this weekend at the Academy Awards? Wearing a head-to-toe colour can sometimes give off a certain vibe—a slinky red dre

While Paris Fashion Week is known for its haute couture shows from some of the most established and heralded fashion houses, there’s a (relatively) new kid on the block.

Two-tone neoprene dresses and separates opened the show, but the sporty shapes were new and slighty exaggerated, making for a fresh silhouette.
