Fashion should be bold. Adventurous. Daring. Unexpected.
Jenny Packham seems to agree, and I couldn’t be happier about it. I’ve been seeing her designs making their way through the Hollywood circuit as of late – and I’m impressed, to say the least. The first one I noticed that caught my eye in a big way was this burst of sequin-filled sunshine on Heidi Klum.

Not to be outdone by this dress Blake wore while filming Gossip Girl.

Just to confirm my suspicions, I had to check out Miss Packham’s fall line. The one word I would use to describe her designs? Outrageous. But – in a good way. A great way. An outrageously bold and chic way. There were lots of giant ribbons (a la the second black gown below) cinching the waist, and loads of sequins and all that glitters. I absolutely D.I.E for her use of color, and her separates took whimsy and playfulness to the extreme – some of them may even strike you as circus-like. I personally think her strongest looks are those suited for the red carpet.
Just take a look at these stunners.






I can’t really decide which are my favorites. I think the black low-cut number or the yellow {though I must say – I’m not really feeling the rest of this model’s look} would have to be the most wearable for me. That flowing red dress is perfection – so dramatic, so exquisitely crafted – and sure to make one stand out in a crowd. I think it’s a safe bet that we’ll be seeing a lot more of her on the red carpet.
What do you think dolls? Are her dresses too much for your taste, or do you dig these larger-than-life designs?










I LOVE her dresses! All of them. But especially the red one with the shoulder details. Gorgeous! I’d probably go for a different belt at the waist, but overall the shape of the dress is amazing!
love the blue one, the shoulders on it are a winner.
i love the red one, not too thrilled about the rest, though i do admire the black one
Heidi Klum looks amazing in that dress and my 2nd favorite is the red gown. Wow! Hoping to see more of her looks on the red carpet for awards season
