Trend Fashion with Tuxedo Dressing

Janelle MonaƩ, is that you? The menswear-inspired pop starlet with the buttoned-up black-and-white ensembles had many a designer walking the "Tightrope" trend at the most recent New York Fashion Week.

Back in the '60s, Yves Saint Laurent pioneered this look with Le Smoking suit, an empowering tuxedo style for women. It broke nearly every rule at the time, but the androgynous way of dressing gave chic Parisians a leg up in the fashion world.

So far, the Fall 2011 season is filled with plenty of borrowed-from-the-boys attire. Alexander Wang paired a sheer bib-front dress with detailed leather trousers; Prabal Gurung sent his sassy lady down the runway in a cummerbund and grosgrain-ribbon-adorned blouse; Ralph Lauren, meanwhile, went for the full look with a head-to-toe suit replete with a bowtie and sexy red peep-toe pumps, earrings and pout.

Sheer Fabrics Trend Fashion

Do you dare, to be (kind of) bare?, The sheer genius trend of peekaboo fabric isn't new to the runways, but this season's modest approach is a certainly breath of fresh air.

Prabal Gurung, for instance, added a matching leotard under a dress that without proper underpinnings, would warrant an indecent exposure charge. And rather than reveal too much, Altuzarra added a mesh insert at the torso of a body-hugging frock. The catch? The designer threw on top a masculine parka to keep the ensemble appropriate for mixed company.

Finally, there was Jason Wu. As if his theatric black lace headband veils didn't already add an air of mystery, the young designer sent very wearable separates made entirely of lace down the runway.

How does one translate sheer fabric from runway to real way? It's what you wear underneath that matters most. To ensure your look is sheer elegance, pair with more conservative pieces, like with longer hemlines.

Style with Reese Witherspoon

Bride to be Reese Witherspoon kept things classic with this simple black and white dress and a high old-school ponytail. That’s why we opted for a dress by Jenny Yoo for her bridal look-alike. It’s a classic, simple silhouette, and just like Reese’s gown, there’s a slight trumpet flair just below the knee. via Celebrity-Gossip.net and Jenny Yoo.
