MFW: Alberta Ferretti and Bottega Veneta

Here's some glamour done well from Milan Fashion Week.  Alberta Ferretti and Bottega Veneta both used bold colors and simple shapes to create gorgeous free-flowing dresses that are sure to be popular on the red carpets this season.  What do you think?

Alberta Ferretti Fall 2011

I love Alberta Ferretti's fall 2011 collection.  I adore the vibrant purples and teals and the gorgeous detailed evening dresses.  Ferretti has a natural skill at making beautiful evening wear that is sophisticated and still sexy.

Designers dish out the sketches for Kate Middleton's big day

So, the announcements have been made, the pictures have been taken, the venue (Westminister Abbey) may or may not have been decided on, but what everyone is wondering is what is Kate Middleton going to wear?

WWD posted 30 looks designers have drawn for Kate, and they range from extravagant to bare bones.

Now, Kate has thrown fashionistas off in the past two weeks because in the photos below she opted to wear a look from last year and do her own makeup even though she probably had tons of gorgeous clothes at her disposal.  Her knack for staying true to herself is going to throw designers off a little, and God forbid, a future princess pull a Carrie Bradshaw.  I don't think the royal family is going to want "the bride to wear a dress by no one."

However, in all seriousness, I wouldn't be surprised if Kate went ultra simple because Diana went ultra extravagant, and let's face it, no one can beat Diana's train (nor does Kate probably want to).

Out of all the designs below here's my top 5 not in any particular order:
1.  Badgley Mischka
2.  Monique Lhuillier
3.  Gucci
4.  J. Crew
5.  Tory Burch

(If I thought Kate would be going for opulence, I'd pick Valentino hands down, and Prabal Gurung and Jason Wu's designs are stunning in a not over the top way as well)

Regardless, I'm sure Kate will make the right decision and will look beautiful (especially in any one of these designs) on her wedding day. 



What designs make your top 5??

Favorite shoes from Milan Fashion Week

Milan Fashion Week really brought out the big guns when it came to shoes.  Especially Prada, ugh I die over the awesome platforms and crazy colors.  Moschino's shoes are gorgeous as well, I love the way the ribbons lace up the ankle.

Versus' shoes were also my favorites, I love the colors and floral prints.

LOVE: Alberta Ferretti

I loove Alberta Ferretti's spring 2011 collection.  It's so pretty and earthy, I love her use of texture and leaf prints.  Ferretti just has a natural way of creating beautiful clothes.
