And high-waisted pants. I saw Baz Luhrmann’s antipodean epic Australia yesterday, and now I’m desperate to recreate this outfit:
Baz Luhrmann obviously knows what to do with Nicole Kidman. She looked incredible in Moulin Rouge, and she looks even better here in those clean ’40s lines: sleek, high-waisted skirts, buttoned gloves, Ferragamo pumps. And that hat [...]
Arbitrary Top Three: Fabulous Filmic Fashion Shows

Brook and I were chatting about last week’s episode of our mutual addiction Top Model (we’re both pulling for McKey, fyi), but we kept getting distracted by the fantastic Dutch designers featured in last week’s go-see episode.
