I recall seeing the Marchesa Fall 2011 collection back in February and being left breathless at the beauty of one particular dress. The silk organza illusion gown featured gothic red embroidery with a studding train that captivated me as it floated down the runway. But I found myself wondering just how this masterpiece would translate to the red carpet.
Step in actress Rachel McAdams. She managed to look dramatic and romantic at the same time, proving to be one of the best dressed at the Cannes Film Festival in France this week. Though I may be a bit biased, as I have a total girl crush on her! But seriously, I dare you to find someone that looked as stunning as her, she hit the nail on its fashionable head with each outfit she has worn so far. From said Marchesa gown, to the ‘oh so cute’ Maxime Simoens white couture dress. Whilst other stars such as Salma Hayeck may have gone for all out Hollywood Glamour (and well, might I add), my idol went for the chic, simple look in this one. And it worked like a dream. Some might think playing it safe, but those thoughts would have been blasted out the window as she wowed in that transfixing red number, and later as she rocked a gold Monique Lhuillier trouser-bustier combo, going against the red carpet grain of the dress.
SIGH. I just want to be her. Or at least have all her clothes.
