Monique Lhuillier - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2015

This is pretty, but a bit unremarkable? That may well mean that it will get a lot of traction though -- sometimes there's something to be said for a dress that doesn't scream, "I AM CHANEL." (This is why I personally am not a fan of logos prominently placed on bags, generally.)

Monique Lhuillier often feels a bit derivative of other lines to me, and this feels a little Sad Valentino Without The Excess.

This is not reinventing the wheel. On the other hand, the wheel doesn't always need to be reinvented.

Hey! Michelle Monaghan wore this to the Oscars. She actually probably LITERALLY wore THIS dress.

This feels like Kristen Stewart to me.

And I want to see this on Nicole Kidman. It's almost shades of her iconic Dior dress. I mean, not REALLY, but something about it reminded me of that dress. The embroidery, perhaps. But Nicole could pull this off.

TOTALLY photocall friendly. I'm putting it on Kerry Washington.

And Emma Stone just wore this to the Independent Spirit Awards! Melancholy or no, this collection is already doing well.
