Who Rocked it Hotter: Paula Patton vs. Serena Williams in 3.1 Phillip Lim
October 20, 2009 by Ehmonie Hainey · Leave a Comment
How can you go wrong in 3.1 Phillip Lim? Actress Paula Patton and tennis champ Serena Williams both chose to wear a similar version of the designer’s duds - Paula at the premiere of “Sherri“; Serena at Phillipe Chow. And we’re loving both ladies looks. Paula picked the Ruffled Tux Blouse & Beaded Flapper Mini Skirt ($450/$595). The silk, dusty rose colored outfit featured a ruffled-front top and a scalloped skirt with silver and purple beading on the hem. Serena chose the 3.1 Phillip Lim Beaded silk flapper dress ($975) in the same antique rose tone also with multicolored beaded trim throughout. The dress has a scoop neck, three-quarter length drape-detail layered sleeves, and a scalloped hem. Which one is your fave? It’s hard for us to choose - both ladies looked fab!

What She Wore: Beyonce at the “Answer The Call” charity concert
September 2, 2009 by Ehmonie Hainey · 1 Comment
Jay-Z and Beyonce attended a press conference for the “Answer The Call” charity concert at Madison Square Garden yesterday and Beyonce looked casually stunning, as usual. She was dressed in a simple black tank and 3.1 Phillip Lim’s tiered zipper skirt. The skirt is sold out but you can cop the next best thing - the 3.1 Phillip Lim Double Knit Tiered Pencil Skirt in black, now on SALE for $119.50, (was $395).
Buy it at Barney’s New York.

Get up close and personal with the real ‘devil in Prada’ - Anna Wintour in “The September Issue”
August 20, 2009 by Ehmonie Hainey · 2 Comments
It was a veritable “who’s who in fashion design” last night at the premiere of “The September Issue“. The documentary, directed by R.J. Cutler, is named after the most highly coveted and biggest (weighs over 4 pounds!) annual issue, the September issue of Vogue magazine.
Cutler delves into the work life of one of the most enigmatic fashion editors ever, Anna Wintour, and Creative director Grace Coddington, and gives us fashionistas an exclusive inside look at the industry’s proclaimed ‘bible’.
Wintour was quoted as saying: “Well, it’s very much the inside workings of the magazine - how we put an issue together, the hard work that it takes, the creativity, you know, the heartache and the successes. I think the September issue is really a benchmark for the industry so to see how it’s put together is obviously for us very special and we hope for the viewers.”
“R.J. is very discreet,” Wintour continued. “You know, obviously at the beginning we were all a little apprehensive but he was with us for nine months so at the end of it he was part of the team.”
The film opens in theaters August 28th in New York, September 11th in Los Angeles and other select cities TBD.
Check out the red carpet ‘fashion show’ starring your favorite designers.
Ed: I wonder if when asked “Who are you wearing”, was the response “Me”?
3.1 Phillip Lim - Fall 2009 Fashion Week
February 22, 2009 by Ehmonie Hainey · Leave a Comment
Fashion Week went by in such a blur that I didn’t even have time to run and check my mailbox. Had I done so, I would have realized that I received an invitation to one of the most opulent shows of the week, 3.1 Phillip Lim.
Complete with a performance by Lissy Trullie, the designer’s show featured an incredible range of rock and roll and mod looks in which he channeled vintage 1960’s London style. The collection looked as if its inspiration was drawn directly from The Beatles and Twiggy, with a laid-back cool aesthetic.
Models sporting vintage bob haircuts rocked the runway wearing cropped sleeved jackets paired with patchworked minidresses, ruffled and bow blouses and swingy leather skirts and leather shorts. Cocktail dresses were touched with a bohemian brush and separates were layered below chunky marabou and goat-hair coats. The 60’s themed show featured tons of vintage looks reworked for today’s woman.
Michelle Obama: First Lady & Fashionista
November 6, 2008 by Ehmonie Hainey · 3 Comments
It’s time for change! Last night, agent-of-change, Barack Obama made history and was elected the first African American president of the United States. I am ecstatic and am totally in love with Obama, his political stance and his adorable Obama family! Last night, at Obama’s acceptance speech in Chicago, the family – Barack, wife Michelle and daughters Malia, Sasha – appeared beautifully color-coordinated, dressed in black and red. This has to be the most fashionable family in the White House since John F. Kennedy and Jackie Onassis! Michelle Obama, in particular, is now every designer’s dream girl.
Last night she wore a much talked-about, fashionable black and red ombre banded dress by Narciso Rodriguez fresh off his Spring 2009 runway show. But this isn’t the first time Michelle Obama’s fashion choices have caused such a frenzy! Her yellow J. Crew outfit worn on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno sent shoppers to the site searching for the look. And her black and white Donna Ricco dress worn on The View sold out almost immediately!
