Sublimated Drew


For any actress, the time of promotion for a movie is a kind of blessing. It's a time for them to be Queen of the moment without the kind of competition they can have for official ceremonies such as the Oscar or the Golden Globes. The Première of a movie is the time for the leading lady, and only her, to shine. This only gives them more pressure to look perfect and make a faultless perfomance in front of the fans, but mainly, in front of the photographers. Most leading ladies always manage to look perfectly groomed and flawless, but lately, the most talked about oh-so-perfect-fashion-style and fabulousness on the red carpet has been Drew Barrymore's. She's always been America's sweetheart but let's be honest, her fashion style wasn't always decent. Not anymore.Drew Barrymore is promoting her latest movie, 'Grey's Gardens' and has decided to put herself in the fashion limelight. Some say it is due to the fact that the character she plays isn't quite to her advantage in the movie (the movie is about the tumuluous life of Jackie Kennedy-Onassis's parents), but whatever the reason, ET's ex co-star appeared more radiant and feminine than ever.
While some have a Sunday best look when trying to be glamourous, Drew embodies perfectly this notion of Hollywood's charismatic voluptuousness, playing and showing her womanhood off. Therefore, even when she choses chic rather than excentric outfits, she manages to give them a special aura. She even managed to transform one of Narciso Rodriguez's wisest design into an overly sexy, yet classy look. Her 20's aura is enhanced by her red-lipstick, black eyeliner make-up and the neverending talk about the braids in her hair. Her look is polished yet looks effortless. She takes advantage of the cameras and loves playing with her new look. Still, she keeps the freshness she awlays had, showing that at 30 years old you can still be on top of the fashion and style world.
She wore a zebra-striped Narciso Rodriguez dress perched on scarlet Miu-Miu stilettos. The crown-braid giving the look its final touch and sporting one of Spring/Summer 09's lmost acclaimed hair styling. She also put herself right in the air-du-tempsby sliding into a nude sheath Alberta Ferretti dress from the Autumn-Winter 09-10' collection and embellished with gold sequins and tulle, giving her a deliciously retro look. The final look she sported was a dramatic off the shoulder black Giambattista Valli dress with what could be seen as OTT puff sleeves and velvet detailing, finishing her look off with Giuseppe Zanotti two-tones shoes and beautiful Lorraine Schwartz jewels.
The actress dares to step out of the style box, her confidence helping her pull the look off and enabling her fashion risks to be seen by fashion blogs or magazines as a wonderful attitude. Go Drew!
