“30 Rock” star Jane Krakowski looked amazing at the 2009 Emmy’s last year.
She glided down the red carpet wearing a Versace Fall 2009 pearl grey off the shoulder gown which was entirely beaded.
With her hair styled into a loose updo and flawless make-up, she carried a silver clutch to complement her look.
German actress Bettina Zimmermann wore the same dress to the 2009 Bambi Awards, but she carried a gold clutch.
The asymmetrical cut of this dress suits Bettina so well and makes her look so sleek and elegant.
This is a tough one as both ladies look gorgeous, but I love Bettina’s brunette hair against this pearl gown so she wins for me.

Some people dream of opening their own boutique. Some people dream about editing their own magazine. Giambattista Valli gets to do both: Valli (left) is the guest editor of issue No. 10 of A MAGAZINE, which will launch in tandem with the opening of his first store, in Paris this November. Following designers such as Yohji Yamamoto, Riccardo Tisci, and Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez of Proenza Schouler onto the Belgian pub’s masthead, Valli has conceived his issue of A MAGAZINE as an extended essay on the topic “What is beauty?” Work by Chiara Clemente, Nan Goldin, Louise Bourgeois, Richard Avedon, and the late Corinne Day will help him answer that question. The print magazine launches in late November, but impatient Valli fans can get a look at the online edition on October 10. To tide them over in the meantime, Valli prepared a special “scrapbook” collage of inspiration images, seen here (below) for the first time.

They may not be handing out medals for Best Fashion at the 2012 Olympics, but Great Britain is taking a shot at the prize anyway. This morning in London, Adidas unveiled its official, Stella McCartney-designed team kit for the British athletes competing at the upcoming Olympic and Paralympic games in the city. McCartney is a longtime Adidas collaborator—she’s been designing her eponymous range of athleticwear for the brand for eight years. But, as she noted after the unveiling of the red, white, and blue uniforms, taking on the creative direction of the Olympic/Paralympic kits entailed a whole new level of development. “You really have to push the technical when you’re designing for that caliber of athlete,” she explained. McCartney also went on to say that, aside from performance, the athletes she spoke to in the course of researching the project emphasized one priority over any other: “What I kept hearing was that they wanted to feel like a team,” she recalled. “So my challenge was to come up with designs that worked for all these different sports, but that, taken together, all felt unified.”—Maya Singer
