She and Prabal were tight at one point -- maybe they still are; Zoe seems very, very private, so she doesn't do a ton of red carpets anymore, and also has presumably been busy with the next 800 installments of Avatar. I assume she wore this in recognition of Prabal's unwavering commitment to fighting Sweaty Elbow Pit Syndrome.

Doutzen Kroes
2012 CFDA Fashion Awards, New York, America - 04 Jun 2012
I obviously don't love this, but I could see the argument for the skirt being sheer; the top, though, doesn't work, because the flashbulbs catch her nipple shields.
2012: Busy Philipps
It's official: Elvira's wig is dead.
2012: Julianne Hough
Her Fug Madness run this year was blistering. These were better times.
2012: Jessica Chastain in Prabal
Is it her First Communion?
2012: MK and A Olsen in The Row
They won for Womenswear Designers of the Year. Who would've thought. They both look nice, but seem allergic to posing any way but belly-to-belly.
2012: Dakota Fanning in Proenza Schouler
"Just... don't even look at my feet. Don't do it. Pretend they aren't there."
2012: Pharrell
Oh, sir.
2012: Gretchen Mol
I THINK you were supposed to get them dry cleaned instead, Gretch.
2012: Kate Bosworth in Altuzarra
I'm not sure exactly what style of dress he's mimicking here, but it seems more haphazard than proper homage.
2012: Sophia Bush in David Meister
She looks GREAT, and she picked the best lobby backdrop. Win-win.
2012: Jessica Pare in Jason Wu
That is a very large pink keyhole.
2012: Crystal Renn in Zac Posen
I want that as wrapping paper, or wallpaper, or even shelf paper. How about throw pillows? I'll take it all.
2012: Zosia Mamet and Cynthia Rowley
"I told her I wanted it longer, so I could sit down more easily, and this was her best offer."
2012: Solange in Marni
I love this so much that I'm not even going to talk about the plastic part of the shoe. The straps and the heels are excellent; this whole outfit is summer chic in a package.

Does this need a darker lip? I love the drama of it, though.

Onto 2013! I assume she's fresh off of hexing someone.

And I assume this skirt was the victim.

That is so good. It's complicated, but so striking, and it fits perfectly. I love it. It's the kind of dress I think Duchess Meghan would have been super drawn to, actually?
2013: Nicole Richie in Marc Jacobs

That's a VERY refined frock from MJ, and it's great.

That needed to be one piece, but with a belt, right?

Elizabeth does not seem like she read the brief on The Olsen Pose.

Ohhh. I love this. So much. It's SO BEAUTIFUL. Of course it's Naeem.
2013 in Jason Wu

... the twisted, gently open back is also a beautiful touch.

They're still together! He looks like someone asked him to do calculus on the spot.
2013: Cody Horn in Michael Kors

Ah, Cody Horn, the Maxine Bahns of Magic Mike -- except Maxine was Ed Burns's girlfriend when they did She's The One, and Cody's casting was because her dad worked at Warner Bros. (At a screening Jessica went to, people actually booed Cody's credit at the end, because she was... not perhaps ready for a leading role.) Anyway, I love her twinkly little minidress, and I just wish she hadn't worn a salon smock over it.

This is so good, and bobs also really work on her.

This is not the worst of the Rooney Mara Heavily Favors Sad Black Frocks chunk of her closet.

That is SO simple that I think it needed a funky necklace as well

You just know Julianne Hough had this as her phone wallpaper for a while and used it to manifest this.
2013: Miranda Kerr in Proenza Schouler

That is divine. What ever happened to Proenza? They're RARELY seen on a red carpet. I guess they're selling to rich ladies, if they're selling at all
