Maybe it was all the floral prints Balenciaga showed lately, but florals and chintz are back and more bold than ever. Mary-Kate Olsen, Eva Longoria and Jenna Dewan are all subscribers to this trend. We like Mary-Kate’s Chloe print the best (sans the fur capelet of course) and all three of them were smart to pair their busy print dresses with solid-color clutches.Mary-Kate and Eva’s photos via instyle.com
We’re not really sure what to call this trend.
Natalie Portman (in Rodarte) and Marion Cotillard (in Chanel) both have dresses that are flanked with draped fabric.
We’re sure there is a technical term for this type of garment but we sure don’t know it. The fabric panels create an ethereal look and when they extend longer than the hemline of the dress (like Marion’s), the effect is quite unusual and striking.

We blogged about Marion Cotillard’s floral dress last week and recently discovered it on the Chloe website, styled very differently from how Marion (our favorite style muse) chose to wear it. Which do you prefer? We think Marion’s choker was a nice accessory choice, but would have liked it better if she’d left the clutch at home so she could show off the cute pockets on the dress.
By the way, you can purchase it at net-a-porter.com for $3,795, but we recommend some more budget-friendly options here.

Sophia Bush, Leigh Lezark and Joss Stone wore stripes to the Herve Leger By Max Azria fashion show in the tents at Bryant Park in New York City during 2008 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. So who did it best?
Sophia. Hands down.
