WHO WORE WHAT?.....88th Annual Academy Awards: Debbie Matenopoulos in NIKOLAKI by Nick Verreos and David Paul--Photos + Fashion Sketch!












Debbie Matenopoulos in Custom NIKOLAKI--88th Annual Academy Awards Red Carpet



On Sunday afternoon--at the 88th Annual Academy Awards Red Carpet---The GORGEOUS Debbie Matenopoulos, Co-Anchor of "The Insider" Entertainment TV Show, wore one of our NIKOLAKI gowns! This happens to be the second time we have had one of our designs walk the Academy Awards red carpet! The first was when the amazingly talented Academy Award-winning Actress Marlee Matlin wore our gown at the 2008 Academy Awards.








NIKOLAKI Diva: Debbie Matenopoulos in NIKOLAKI sequined gown--The gown featured hand-sewn gold/silver sequined paillettes over a silk base. The column silhouette had draped bias-cut details in front and back, as well as a train.

WHO WORE WHAT?.....88th Annual Academy Awards: Jennifer Lawrence in Christian Dior Haute Couture S/S 2016




 Jennifer Lawrence in Christian Dior Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2016






Jennifer Lawrence, star of "Joy", wore--to no one's surprise--Christian Dior Haute Couture to tonight's 88th Annual Academy awards. Lawrence is the Face of Dior Makeup so naturally, it is most definitely in her contract to also wear the brand's designs. The dress is from Christian Dior Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2016 collection which was NOT designed by former Creative Director Raf Simons but by Lucie Meier and Serge Ruffieux, who are the current heads of the Dior design studio. Now, back to the gown...







It was black and nude silk tulle with hand-sewn lace detail which tiered to the floor...






Christian Dior Haute Couture Spring 2016: The original look, as shown on the runway, was tea length with a much deeper neckline. The dress created for Jennifer lengthened the design to floor length and made the neckline a bit more modest.





She finished the look with bleach-blond shoulder-length hair and clean makeup--and several strands of diamonds around her neck. 



What did you guys think of Jennifer Lawrence's Academy Awards ensemble? A Yea or Nay?


WHO WORE WHAT?.....88th Annual Academy Awards: Priyanka Chopra in Zuhair Murad Haute Couture S/S 2016




 Priyanka Chopra in Zuhair Murad Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2016



Former "Miss World" and ABC "Quantico" actress Priyanka Chopra looked STUNNING in a white tulle gown from Zuhair Murad Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2016 collection. The strapless $75,000+ costing gown (don't fret, she didn't have to pay that, it was lent to her) featured a tulle base with hand-sewn sequin flower and leaf applique as well as a metallic silver belt...










Beautiful: Being a former "Miss World" helps but still...WOW! Loved this dress, loved Priyanka's olive-toned skin against the ivory color and the styling and accessories were on-point.


WHO WORE WHAT?.....88th Annual Academy Awards: Saoirse Ronan in Custom Calvin Klein Collection




 Saoirse Ronan in Custom Calvin Klein Collection



Academy Award-nominated actress for "Brooklyn" Saoirse Ronan, wore this emerald green sequined gown custom-made for her by Calvin Klein Collection. I'm always fascinated by designer brands such as "Calvin Klein Collection" who create these custom gowns for top awards shows such as the Oscars and for top A-list actresses, yet the gowns and the designs have little to do with what one sees on the runways of Calvin Klein Collection. But that's neither here nor there, I guess...back to Saoirse:





The gown itself featured a plunging neckline, fitted waist and slight train. It was a simple silhouette and nothing too "Fashion Forward", but still pretty. I think she looked beautiful and quite a movie star. I loved how the color of the dress brought out the gorgeous color of her eyes and the nod to the "Emerald Isle" (with the color) to her native Ireland.






I loved her softly tousled hair and clean makeup. The mismatched earrings are another very modern touch.







One of the nicest--if not safest-- looks on the 2016 Academy Awards red carpet. What did you guys think?


WHO WORE WHAT?.....88th Annual Academy Awards: Rooney Mara in Givenchy Haute Couture S/S 2016




Rooney Mara in Givenchy Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2016



"Carol" actress Rooney Mara wore this ivory colored gown from Givenchy Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2016 collection. The gown--designed by Riccardo Tisci-- had a high neckline, long sleeves, peek-a-boo opening and front cascading slit. The dress itself was hand made of silk tulle with intricate sequin applique....







The original version--as shown at last month's Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week--was in a purple/midnight blue coloration and featured different sequin work. But the silhouette and gown details (high neck, peek-a-boo, long sleeves, etc.) were all the same. This collection marked the return of the famed French fashion house of Givenchy to Haute Couture.









Knot Rooney: I loved the sleek and modern top/center/back knot hairstyle and UBER fierce makeup. I think we are even seeing Rooney trying to smile...a little bit!







What did you guys think of Rooney and this gown? Is it a Yeay or Nay? 


WHO WORE WHAT?.....2016 SAG Awards Red Carpet: Debbie Matenopoulos in NIKOLAKI Nick Verreos/David Paul Sequined Gown




"The Insider" Co-Host Debbie Matenopoulos in NIKOLAKI Nick Verreos/David Paul Gown and Fashion Sketch--2016 SAG Awards Red Carpet



I was so excited to see the fabulous "The Insider" Co-Host Debbie Matenopoulos wearing our NIKOLAKI gown at last night's 2016 SAG Awards Red Carpet.  Debbie's gown was a mint-green colored silk chiffon sequined bias-cut dress with a "Sari"-style drape and silk zibeline strapless bustier...

WHO WORE WHAT?.....2016 SAG Awards Red Carpet: Nicole Kidman in Gucci




 Nicole Kidman in Gucci



Nicole Kidman wore this pink, lilac and violet sequined gown from Gucci. Gucci's new designer Alessandro Michele (he's been Creative Director since last year) has been shaping up the fashion world with his "Geek Chic/70's" new look to the House of Gucci and I guess Kidman (or whoever styled her) thought she would look divine in one of his newest creations. I may have to disagree. This was a bit of a mess. While I give her points for going "out there" (as "out there" as one can go nowadays at these otherwise boring red carpet events), this style was a bit too Cirque du Soleil-meets-Valley of the Dolls...







Trompe L'oeil Gucci: While the gown may look like it is ruffled, it's a trompe l'oeil effect (an illusion) which is quite interesting in terms of the dress but I just don't think it translated well on the red carpet. Now, if she wore this in Capri with gold sandals while drinking a Campari and Soda, I would have probably thought she looked bellissima!



With that being said...What do you guys think of this on Nicole Kidman? Yay or Nay?

WHO WORE WHAT?.....2016 SAG Awards Red Carpet: Emilia Clarke in Christian Dior




 Emilia Clarke in Christian Dior



"Game of Thrones" actress Emilia Clarke wore this fuchsia pink silk satin ball gown from Christian Dior. I liked the color (I'm a big fan of bubblegum pink!) and I love me a good ball gown but...this was a little too Disney Princess-Meets-Prom-a-licious...

What do you guys think...Is this glamorous and elegant? Or Disney Prom-a-licious? Let me know!

WHO WORE WHAT?......2016 SAG Awards Red Carpet: Claire Danes in Stella McCartney




 Claire Danes in Stella McCartney



"Homeland" actress Claire Danes wore this gown by Stella McCartney at the 2016 SAG Awards. blue color-blocked gown had a plunging neckline, simple and clean silhouette and slight train...







Simple Elegance: We all know that Claire is a fan of this clean and simple red carpet look; she's not a fussy gal when it comes to dressing up. It definitely works for her. And the proportions were just right for her figure. Thumbs up for Claire!


WHO WORE WHAT?......2016 SAG Award Red Carpet: Julianne Moore in Givenchy Haute Couture Spring 2016




 Julianne Moore in Givenchy Haute Couture Spring 2016





Actress Julianne Moore wore a citron green sequined gown from Givenchy Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2016 collection. The collection was just shown this past week at the Paris Haute Couture shows and marked the return of the Haute Couture arm of the famed French fashion house of Givenchy. I have to be blunt and honest about this: I was not a fan. Somehow--in this gown--Julianne Moore looked both frumpy and dumpy. I get that this sequined gown is Couture and hand made and costs about $50,000 if not more; and I even get the whole 70's vibe but...









It just didn't fit her right and the style wasn't flattering, especially the too wide gathered bust/bandeau section. On a good note, I liked the color.




What did you guys think? Is this Chic? Or Frumpy and Dumpy?


WHO WORE WHAT?.....SAG Awards 2016: Rachel McAdams in Elie Saab Haute Couture Spring 2015




 Rachel McAdams in Elie Saab Haute Couture Spring 2015



Rachel McAdams looked STUNNING in a handmade gown from Elie Saab Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2015 collection. The ball gown featured sequined lace applique that was hand-sewn onto a mini polka dotted mesh base. The style had a high neckline and extended shoulder-sleeves. Notice also the length: on the model (right) the gown had about 3-4 inches of the polka dotted organza fabric at the bottom, yet on McAdams, it was hemmed up as you can see that the sequined lace ends at the bottom of the gown. It was obviously altered from the sample worn on the runway by the 5' 11" tall model to fit the length of Rachel McAdams who is a more "real woman" 5' 4".










WHO WORE WHAT?.....2016 SAG Awards Red Carpet: Rooney Mara in Valentino






 Rooney Mara in Valentino



Actress Rooney Mara wore this black silk tulle gown from Valentino at tonight's 2016 SAG Awards. The gown was simple, with a gathered bust, waistband and softly flared skirt. It was a very Fashion Minimalist look, which to be honest, was slightly on the boring side. To add to the minimalist "theme", she barely accessorized the look and kept her hair to a simple yet severe slicked-back bun. She looked like a Russian ballerina...
