In September, Adrianna Papell For E! Live From The Red Carpet launched a nationwide call-to-action, and invited designers to submit red carpet looks for the Spring 2012 collection. A winner has been chosen and Natalie Palter’s winning design was unveiled to millions of viewers nationwide on the Oscar’s Red Carpet on E!’s Academy Awards Pre-Show. Over 700 designs were submitted. Natalie is freshman fashion design student at Marist College who took much of her inspiration from Grecian goddesses adding crystal baguettes accent the décolletage and natural waist.
“I have been designing ever since I could hold a crayon. I wanted to design a dress that would not only flatter any woman’s body, but also make her feel like red carpet royalty,” said Natalie. The winning design will be available at Lord & Taylor and other fine retailers beginning in June. The entire Adrianna Papell for E! Live from the Red Carpet line can be found on E! Online. Now all you have to do is find the perfect red carpet event or June wedding to go to. Perhaps, a night at the Opera would be an excellent time to have your red carpet moment? I just love old Hollywood.
Chelsea Handler has inspired me to do three things: to write a book, to have my own show, and to do whatever I want. So far, I have only completed one out of the three, but that’s okay because I’m still young. Yesterday, on the day that was supposed to be the end of the world, but wasn’t, I went to Chelsea Handler’s book signing at Barnes & Noble for her new book Lies That Chelsea Handler Told Me. I totally love her show so standing in line for two hours to see her was totally worth it. Perhaps, someday I will write a book and people will stand in line for me.
