Kate Middleton showed once again why she made our top five best dressed royals list last week.
The Duchess of Cambridge looked stunning as she stepped out for the War Horse premiere in a black lace Alice Temperley fishtail dress complete with a plunging neckline.
She kept her trademark waves dry with a large clear circular umbrella and finished off her look with a small black clutch bag.
According to sources, Kate had the kleenex out from the beginning of the weepy film directed by Steven Spielberg. We hope she didn’t smudge her make up.
See the gallery below for images of Kate’s fab frock.

SJP visited the Late Show studios in NYC wearing a bold colour-blocked outfit of scarlet and pink. What a clever girl
As the Film Festivals and premières continue, we’re seeing an awful lot of sweet red-carpet and party looks.
Sarah Jessica Parker is firmly back on our style radar as we spotted her in New York City outside the studios for David Letterman’s “Late Show” – and she’s succeeded in the art-of colour blocking where Cheryl Cole had previously failed, teaming a scarlet blouse with high-waisted magenta trousers. Sound horrible? Maybe, but it really works. SJP 4eva.
At the premiere for the new film Contagion, the French actress Marion Cotillard looked dazzlingly beautiful with a braided up-do, smoky eye make-up and a floor-length sheer layered black gown. A beautiful red-carpet look.
Meanwhile, in London the legendary Italian fashion house Missoni were throwing a big party for the launch of a new pop-up store – and plenty of celebrities were out to show their love for the iconic knitwear company. Poppy Delevigne worked a bohemian, rock and roll look in a sleeveless leather jacket with a floaty blouse and denim hot-pants while the supermodel Doutzen Kroes naughtily broke the Missoni dress code in a clinging black Stella McCartney dress.
The true star of the Missoni party, however, was Elizabeth Olsen, the little sister of fashion’s favourite twins. She looked cute as a button in a Missoni-knit black shift dress with a white collar for a retro look. Is she going to overtake Ashley and Mary-Kate in the style stakes? Watch this space..
To see who we’ve been spotting, check out the gallery above.

Rosie Huntington-Whitely has spoken out about exactly what it takes to have a successful career in modelling.
Rosie, who’s probably every man in the world’s dream girl at the moment, is fast becoming one of our generation’s most loved models and a successful Hollywood actress with a leading role in the new Transformers movie. So it’s fair to say that Miss Rosie knows a thing or two about a successful modelling career.
Her advice to any aspiring young models? “It takes hard work, determination and the ability to pick yourself up and try again when things go wrong. I advise you to get a reputable team around you, too. And always trust your gut feeling.” In addition to Rosie’s recommendations, we also recommend swishy hair, a bee-sting pout and legs like a baby giraffe’s. That seems to be quite important too.
Rosie’s support “team” is her mum, who she attributes for her success and drive as a young model. She told Britain’s ELLE magazine: “My mother inspires me. She’s been the driving force behind me the whole way and I strive to make her proud. I’m always drawn to women who are strong, independent, individual, who have an air of mystery about them and who aren’t afraid of their sexuality.”

Supermodel Cindy Crawford went for a scorching European look in bright scarlet
Mamma mia, the Venice International Film Festival is upon us once more, and the stars certainly pulled out all the stops for this big red-carpet event.
Top style snaps have to go to Thirteen Evan Rachel Wood for completely stealing the show in a long white shirt-gown with Giuseppe Zanotti shoes and Bulgari jewellery. Pure Italian glamour all the way – this is one girl that knows how to dress up, and dress up well. We also loved her hair. While in the past the beautiful actress has opted for long, sculptured 40s waves, for the Film Festival she went for a short, sleek crop slicked back in a masculine ‘do.
Diane Kruger refused to be outshone by Evan, however, and looked like a fairytale in a sparkle-encrusted Elie Saab gown with silver peep-toes and loose, girlish wavy hair. Diane never fails to dazzle us with her red carpet style. Another winner was the actress Marisa Tomei, whose elegant draped mustard dress earned her some serious fashion respect from us.
Representing the models of the glitterati was everyone’s favourite supermodel, Cindy Crawford, showing us that she’s still got it even if the 90s are over in a one-shouldered scarlet Roberto Cavalli evening gown and effortlessly teased hair. Meanwhile, Bianca Brandolini looked sexy in a long-sleeved leopard print gown with a ruffled hem and caramel-coloured hair.
Providing arm candy for the girls’ press pictures was the lovely Mr George Clooney, who looked all twinkly and foxy in a lovely classic tuxedo with his silvery hair slicked back. George, you don’t get older, you just get better.
Check out who we spotted at the Venice Film Festival in the gallery.

At the after party for Sex and The City 2's premiere, SJP looked sexy and seventies in a peacock-blue maxi
Many well-dressed celebrities come and go without us particularly noticing, but we do certainly have at least one true style icon for our generation: Sarah Jessica Parker (or Carrie Bradshaw if you refuse to believe the Sex and the City character isn’t actually a real person).
I don’t know about you, but the character of Carrie Bradshaw has been there for me in the good times and the bad with her oversized corsages and couture McQueen. And SJP is just as chic and stylish in real life as she is on the screen. Her trademark wavy hair, smoky eye make-up, diminutive frame and penchant for Vivienne Westwood have made her one of the red carpet’s most-loved celebs – it’s no wonder her wardrobe is so full of couture. If we were Lagerfeld we’d give her everything we’d ever designed.
We’ve noticed that the star has a bit of a thing for vintage-look maxi dresses recently. Maybe it’s her passion for Halston Heritage or just that the look is in this season, but SJP definitely has got a flair for working the high-glamour, Jerry Hall 1970s look. We’re pretty much obsessed with the outfit she rocked for Cannes this May: a purple high-necked maxi dress with a train, and a lace neckline. J’adore.
Check out the gallery for our favourite Sarah Jessica Parker looks.

Freida Pinto seems to have finally realised how famous and successful she is, because she’s admitted that she’s no longer trying to scrimp and save every penny at flea markets.
The “Slumdog Millionaire” actress may be rich enough to not buy second-hand clothes anymore, but she’s still amazed that she can employ stylists to dress her now. Freida said: “I have access to certain things that I wouldn’t ever have before. I used to go down to the flea markets and put these things together and take them to my tailor to be fixed up. And now there are other people who do that for me!”
While the down-to-earth star has been previously used to hunting in flea markets, she’s also confessed that she loves getting ready for red carpet events and getting to wear couture gowns. Freida explained her love of the red carpet: “I look at it as fun. I think it’s terrifying if you’re trying to do something you’re not comfortable with, or trying to channel something you’re not. But if you’re just being true to the kind of clothes you wear, it’s fun.”

Anne Hathaway looked elegant and poised in a form-fitting white lace dress
I don’t know about you, but weepy romantic films like One Day are not my bag. (I know this is totally unfair because I haven’t actually seen One Day, but I saw enough meaningful glances and lines like ,”I love you Dexter… I just don’t like you anymore..” to get the picture.) Having said that, I love a good premiere, especially one Anne Hathaway is at.
Anne looked every inch the star at yesterday’s première in an incredibly elegant fitted midi-dress made out of white lace, worn with nude heels and 40s-inspired starlet hair. Her co-star, Ramola Garai, looked like a vintage siren in a black lace cocktail dress and smoky eye-makeup. Also looking quite romantic was Peaches Geldof attending the event with her new boyfriend, Thomas Cohen. Peaches looked very airy-fairy in a wafting nude maxi dress with chiffon cape sleeves and crystal detailing.
“Made In Chelsea” star Millie Mackintosh looked like a FINE FILLY in a pair of high-waisted leather shorts to show off her St Tropez tan, worn with a chic grey tweed jacket that we’re almost definite is Chanel. Also rocking a more informal, smart-casual look was MTV’s Lauren Whitmore who turned up in a cool, slouchy men’s tuxedo jacket with a miniskirt for a sexy twist on the current androgynous trend. Elly Jackson was also there in a mad brocade coat.
Our top style points go to the actress Jodie Whittaker, who looked SO elegant and beautiful in a very structured, high-necked white dress with long sleeves to show off her slim figure. Jodie teamed the dress with some statement black and silver heels and a silver clutch for a clean and modern look.
Check out the gallery above to see who we spotted at the “One Day” première and what they wore.

When we were browsing the paparazzi photos for the première of “Our Idiot Brother”, we were particularly taken with Zooey Deschanel’s unusual red carpet dress. The actress had chosen to wear an unusual black pencil dress with white ruffles and frills – it could look awful on the wrong person, but with Zooey’s milky pale skin, blue eyes and dark hair it looked perfect. We’d completely forgotten that we love Zooey!
She’s been off our radar until the last couple of months, but over the summer she’s been popping up here and there at various glam press parties. We love her sweet, girlish signature style of folk dresses, 50s silhouettes and babydoll shapes – she’s never one to go full-out glamour at a red carpet event, opting instead for understated vintage pieces. Our kind of girl.
Check out the gallery above for our favourite Zooey fashion highlights.

The Slumdog Millionaire beauty Freida Pinto says she is incredibly grateful for the fashion house Chanel’s support early on in her career.
The iconic fashion house was the first to lend her couture and pieces from their current collections for her red-carpet appearances, even when she was just a little-known actress beginning her career.
Freida said: “I tell you why I like Chanel so much; when I started off, no one wanted to give me clothes to wear. Absolutely no one. All the labels said, ‘Who is she?’ Modelling was not completely satisfying. But Chanel believed in me from the very beginning. For the very first red carpet I did at the Toronto Film Festival in 2008, they dressed me up in their very current season collection. It’s a massive brand, why would they invest in someone who is nobody?”
Lucky Freida has since struck up a friendship with Chanel’s director, Karl Lagerfeld, who has had a big influence over her dress sense. She said: “I always have a good time with Karl because he’s so appreciative and wants me to try different things.”
We wish Chanel would believe in us.. go on Karl, lend us some dresses.

At the première of "The Help", Emma Stone opted for a beautifully girly drop-waisted 1920s dress in soft pink
While we try to forget all the scary stuff that is happening in the UK at the moment, celebrities over the pond have been carrying on as usual. God bless ‘em.
At the world première of new film “The Help”, the Easy-A actress Emma Stone looked beautiful and serene in a very feminine mauvey-pink 1920s drop-waisted dress with nude satin heels and an old-school Hollywood white chain purse. Emma is seriously our beauty crush right now, so it’s no wonder she’s just been snapped up by Revlon.
Meanwhile at the “One Day” première, we spotted our favourite actress Anne Hathaway looking pretty and simple in a black taffeta prom dress with beautiful gold shimmer detailing around the neckline. The understated make-up and loose hair went perfectly with the look. Also there was the supermodel Coco Rocha, who was rocking 70s glamour in a white and silvery-grey strapless maxi with huge Halston-style diamond earrings.
Snapped by the paps in Manhattan was our favourite celebrity wife, Katie Holmes, looking impeccable in the most perfect pair of jeans (we suspect J Brands) with a slouchy white T-shirt and nude patent heels. We loved her vintage wavy hair, too. Zoe Saldana was rocking a tough utility look in LA, wearing a ruched khaki miniskirt with grey wedges and aviator heels. We love!
Also spotted was Ashley Tisdale coming out of a salon in LA, toting not one but TWO giant handbags, swishing her incredibly blonde and tousled hair about and looking cool in pale-blue skinny jeans and a cable knit sweater.
And finally, not everyone is terrified and miserable in England, as some celebs rocked up to the West End in Piccadilly Circus to see the new “Ghost” musical. Kylie Minogue was there (we’ve just done a piece on the daring clashing animal-print outfit she wore – check the site to see) and so was the Saturdays’ Rochelle, who looked sexy and polished in a pale grey-blue bandage dress. Herve Leger perhaps?
Check out the gallery to see who we’ve been spotting.

Glamorous chef Gizzi Erskine was festival perfection this weekend at Bestival in a sweet playsuit and beehive
It’s been an excellent few days for celebrity-spying as there have been festivals, premières and photo-calls galore. While some of us have been sleeping off our holiday excesses and stressing about our depleted bank balances (thank you Summer, you most expensive of the seasons), our favourite celebs have been up and at it.
Our favourite celebrity chef Gizzi Erskine, who is infinitely more beautiful and fashionable than the likes of Gordon Ramsay or Heston Blumenthal, was spotted at Bestival this weekend looking like vintage perfection outside her Tiki Lounge in an adorable playsuit with her trademark beehive and some quirky pineapple-shaped sunglasses. This is playful fashion at it’s best – we’ll be keeping a close eye on Gizzi from now on.
Meanwhile, back in the Big Smoke, a fashion happening was going on at the unveiling of Pearl Lowe’s new 1920s-inspired collection for Peacocks. Pearl’s feline daughter, Daisy, was there modelling one of the creations, a wine-coloured velvet dress with a beautiful crochet collar. We can’t wait for this lot to go on sale.
There was also a party honouring the launch of a new book on hip-hop going on at the Red Bull studios in London, where Kelly Brook was spotted there looking healthy and happy in a brilliantly-white midi dress with matching heels. As well as Kelly, T4 presenter Jameela Jamil rocked up in a cool zipped corset top teamed up with primrose-yellow hotpants and chunky gothic accessories.
At the ICA in London, celebrities showed up to the screening of new indie-flick Our Day Will Come – Jaime Winstone and designer Pam Hogg turned up flaunting their London street-style credentials in clashing prints and tailoring, as did girl rapper M.I.A. in a huge black biker jacket with a slouchy denim shirt.
At a photocall in Berlin, the Black Swan actress Mila Kunis was photographed smiling like the cat got the cream besides heart-throb Justin Timberlake in a rose-pink silk cocktail dress.
It was all go for the paparazzis across the pond as well, as popstrel Lady Gaga was seen leaving the infamous celeb hangout Chateau Marmont dressed up to the nines as usual in a clinging black dress split up the front with a plunging neckline, with gleaming PVC ankle boots. Someone’s already embracing the Autumn/Winter fetish trend!
In Los Angeles, Freida Pinto was seen at the première of her new film “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” wearing an emerald-green maxi dress. She looked absolutely stunning, but then she’d look good in a bin-bag.
Check out our gallery to see the best-dressed celebrities from the past few days.

Fearne Cotton looked cool and laid-back yesterday leaving work in a simple floral shirt teamed with tight black denim and killer leather heels
Yesterday was a good day for the paparazzi, as it seems there were celebrities out in full force all over the place for swanky bashes. Well, besides Fearne Cotton – as always we spotted her on her way out of the Radio One studios where she works, looking cute and dressed-down in a slightly wrinkled floral shirt teamed up with some Mad Max-style wedges and jeans so tight they could have been sprayed on. We love Fearne for keeping it real. I know if I was aware of paparazzi photographing me all the time, I’d probably wear a ballgown every where.
Further across London, in leafy Hyde Park, a party thrown by the Serpentine Gallery had guests in attendance such as Alexa Chung, Julia Restoin-Roitfeld and Grayson (who we have to say, looked very pretty indeed in his party dress). Alexa Chung was on full fashion form, wearing a beautifully cut and tailored navy dress with one of her trademark puritanical white collars, with a pair of the highest black leather heels we have ever seen. Seriously, we are in awe of Alexa’s heels – full props to her for wearing those anywhere. Meanwhile, Julia Restoin-Roitfeld came to the party looking quite sexy and French in a sheer black blouse teamed with a curve-hugging black skirt. Who knows if we’ll ever see her wearing any colour, but moody dressing does suit her.
Diane Kruger looked very ooh-la-la on the arm of her current squeeze, Joshua Jackson, at a party thrown by Jaeger in Paris wearing a striking lace and brocade midnight-blue dress with a raspberry-pink clutch and simple accessories. Diane Kruger will always and forever be one of our favourite celebrity dressers.
Across the pond in New York, the scarily, horribly gorgeous Rosie Huntingdon-Whitely made an appearance at the première for Transformers: Dark Side of The Moon, in which she has a starring role. The supermodel looked statuesque in a floor-sweeping scarlet gown to match her sizeable pout. Anyone who wishes Megan Fox was still the pin-up of the Transformers franchise is probably saying “Megan who?” after yesterday. We also saw Julia Roberts outside filming for an appearance on the David Letterman show looking AMAZING in a pair of aviator sunglasses worn with a delicate white shift dress and a baggy masculine blazer that worked the hard/soft angle perfectly.
And finally, some of the silver screen’s fashion darlings were in attendance yesterday at an intimate showing of Salvatore Ferragamo’s 2012 Cruise Collection. Pretty young actress Emma Roberts (niece of Julia! I wonder if they hung out in NYC yesterday), who is rapidly becoming a hot commodity amongst stylists and designers, looked pretty with soft wavy hair and a sumptuous purple velvet wrap dress. Freida Pinto, “Slumdog Millionaire” star and a renowned fashion lover, was there looking chic in a knotted graphic-print silk halterneck with a neat white skirt and tan accessories. We love that she’s giving nods to the 70s trend right now.
Our final best-dressed celeb spotted yesterday was sultry mama Eva Mendes, who was also at the Ferragamo show in an elegant wrap dress that combined both cream and camel tones. She looked like a movie star from the 1970s.
Check out the gallery above for our best-dressed celebs spotted yesterday.
