Donatella should give January Jones a Versace campaign already, faithfully wearing one Versace stunner after another (she wore Versace Atelier to last year’s Emmys too), the Mad Men actress totally stole the spotlight at The Emmys last night in the Spring ‘10 Aterlier piece. Apparently, January had decided on what to wear weeks before the ceremony as she “fell in love with a dress I saw in a magazine and the designer is nice enough to loan it to me. Comfort in these dresses is not an option. As long as it looks good, I’ll suck it up. I like to take risks, so I try to shock people a little bit. Not so much though.”
Don’t you just love an actress who takes risks on the red carpet?
Magazines that had featured the dress includes Vogue Italia (in which January reportedly chanced upon the dress from), ELLE US and Vogue UK:

The Venue, Tanjong Beach Club at Sentosa. Nope, no one (even the intoxicated) fell into the pool.
The Mulberry team from UK flew in to Singapore for the presentation + party at Tanjong Beach Club on Wednesday, and the special guest that had people stalking is none other than TV personality/Vogue UK cover girl/new minted designer (Madewell)/Mulberry muse — Alexa Chung. Although her visit to Singapore is seemingly low profile, Alexa was friendly when approached for pictures, and in a pretty good mood the entire night.
Here are some pictures of the show:

Princess Stephanie of Monaco, aka the youngest child of the legendary Grace Kelly, a Vogue Paris cover girl and supportive mother extraordinaire is in Singapore right now for the first ever Youth Olympic Games (YOG) happening in Singapore. She told reporters that her visit was not for royal duties, but to offer support for her daughter who is competing in the women’s 3m Springboard Diving.
Remember Princess Stephanie, in a Versace dress styled by Carine Roitfeld, on the Vogue Paris Dec 08/Jan 09 cover? The editorial is as regal as it can be, sans the usual high fashion/explicit daring images that spells Vogue Paris, it was more about her face than her body or clothes. She was also the guest editor of the issue. With her strong sporty looks, there is no wonder that the fashion world is fascinated by her.
