Trend of the Week - Frills

Frills 

I finally get to do a trend post that refers to my Blog's name. There were so many glam events this week. The haute couture shows in Paris, The 'White Fairy Tale Love Ball' and the premiere of the final Harry Potter movie. Frills were in abundance at all these fashionable gatherings.


At a photocall for the final Harry Potter movie, Emma Watson wore a sheer back lace dress by Rafael Lopez, which had a nude inner dress. The sleeves and hem were adorned with black frills.
Clemence Poésy attended the 'Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows Part 2' Premiere wearing a white Nina Ricci dress that's swirled in ruffles. I like that she paired it with a black skinny belt and black bow heels.
Alexa Chung was in Paris for Chanel's Fall 2011 Couture presentation. She wore a black cocktail dress by Chanel, naturally, which had a white frilled neckline. Black oxfords and a Chanel chain bag completed her look.

The 'White Fairy Tale Love Ball' was hosted by designer Garavani Valentino in France earlier this week. The white dress code brought about many ruffled dresses. 
Margherita Missoni wore a dress from her family's design label. Her spaghetti strap gown had lines of sliver beading with layered frills at the hip and hemline.
Anne Hathaway looked like a scene out of the 'Princess Diaries' in a Valentino gown, with silver-trimmed frills. A tiara Alice band and loose waves added to her fairytale look.
Italian socialite, Bianca Brandolini d'Adda also chose a gown by Valentino. The pleated strap gown was covered in rows of small frills.


Anna Dello Russo attended the 'White Fairy Tale Love Ball' in a Roberto Cavalli gown with a fully frilled mermaid train. A rose-lined netted fascinator topped off her bridal-like look.
Emma Watson was enveloped by tons of tulle frills, in this grey Oscar de la Renta gown. She wore it to the World Premiere of 'Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows Part 2'.
