Hollywood Issue March 2012
Vanity Fair celebrates the upcoming Academy Awards by placing not one, but an amazing 11 leading ladies on their latest cover, spanning 3 pages. 'The Hollywood Issue' features the biggest rising stars in the industry, each gracefully adorned in satin, sorbet shaded designer gowns. Famed photographer Mario Testino brilliantly captured the individualistic beauty of each of these starlets, who are portrayed in a glamourous vintage style boudoir setting.
From Left: Rooney Mara, Mia Wasikowska , Jennifer Lawrence, Jessica Chastain, Elizabeth Olsen, Adepero Oduye, Shailene Woodley, Paula Patton, Felicity Jones, Lily Collins and Brit Marling.
The starlets were one of the prettiest trends for Spring/Summer 2012 - pastel shades. Sleek, glossy gowns in soft sugary tones have made a sweet transition from catwalk to cover. I couldn't locate some of the runway gowns, as a few of them were custom made by the designers.
Rooney Mara ('The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo') wears a rosé pink halter neck keyhole cut-out gown by Ralph Lauren. Mia Wasikowska (from Jane Eyre) looks fetching in a minted green Ralph Lauren gown. Jennifer Lawrence (from the upcoming 'Hunger Games') stuns in a lustrous silver dress made by Donna Karan. Jessica Chastain (from 'The Help') is dressed in a strapless powder blue frock by Giorgio Armani.
Elizabeth Olsen (from the critically acclaimed movie 'Martha Marcy May Marlene') is elegant in an ice blue Salvatore Ferragamo gown. Nigerian born Adepero Oduye (from 'Pariah') shines in a silver one-shouldered Carolina Herrera gown. Shailene Woodley (from 'The Descendants') is ultra-glam in a petal pink Ralph Lauren gown.
Paula Patton (Mission Impossible 4) wears a silky white L'Wrenn Scott dress with feather boa. Felicity Jones (from 'Like Crazy') is alluring in a glossy grey Burberry gown. Lily Collins (from the forthcoming Snow White movie, 'Mirror Mirror' channels a young Liz Taylor, wearing a peach Calvin Klein dress with fur shrug. And lastly, newbie Brit Marling ('Another Earth') wears a beautiful baby blue halter-wrap neck gown by Tommy Hilfiger.

this editorial is so amazing! love the old Hollywood look; hair, make up and dresses... so gorgeous...
but I must notice that some of the actress don't look nothing like themselfes... could be the make up, but I think it's mostly because of too much photoshop... :(

I think Jennifer Lawrence and Lily Collins look most glamorous!
You know how much I love skirts/dresses like the one Elizabeth Olsen is wearing... my God, this is such a nice post, they all look like Hollywood divas from decades like the 20s up to the 50s!!! My favorite actresses are from those decades! Such an amazing post, with amazing dresses and sweet colors!
I would love to be a part of a shoot like this! Super glam!
Much love, Bailey from Vanilla Blonde

these pictures are fabulous, I have one of the actresses dresses color pink .. you have Sam?
Wow, these pictures are fabulous!! I love this trend and they all nailed it!
Jessica, Shailene, and Lily look oh-so-glamorous. They all remind me of specific old movie icons...and just hit the pose and facial expression just right. If I were to pick a gown to wear, I'd have to go with Lily's peach one...wowza, that's a standout!
