Monique Lhuillier's Valentines Day Themed Fashion Show
Monique Lhullier’s Fall 2012 collection presented at NY Fashion Week is red-carpet ready.

The designer took a dramatic turn with black and red gowns and pantsuits that I’m sure has all of Hollywood salivating.

According to Lhuillier herself, “A lot of the pieces that you see here tonight are already on hold for the Oscars.”

The collection features dramatic and deep red hues with cut-outs, black and red lace accents and sleek body hugging silhouettes accented with beading, fur, and sparkly embroidery.

Style Q & A With Designer Monique Lhuillier
Hollyscoop chatted exclusively with Monique Lhuillier during runway presentation at New York's Fashion week.

She opened up about her Spring 2012 Collection, why she's the go-to designer for celebrity red carpet looks, how Kate Middleton has influenced fashion and what a bride should look for in a perfect wedding dress.

Here's what Monique Lhuillier had to tell us:

On what we can expect from her Spring Collection:
"For spring, you're going to see a lot of athletic influence, it has all my usual couture fabrics, the laces, the beautiful silks, but they are cut with a razor sharp shoulder and really low backs."

Eddie Cibrian Gives LeAnn Rimes Fashion Advice "All The Time"

Eddie Cibrian gives his wife fashion advice, which would be the cutest thing ever, but then I remember that Cibrian is a home wrecking man whore. But then I catch a glimpse of his incredibly perfect 5 o'clock shadow that appears hand painted by God and I'm like "Okay Eddie Cibrian, you're okay in my book."

Anyways, Twitters most advanced couple, LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian, attended a Monique Lhulier show on Thursday night during NYC's Fashion Week. While most straight men would feel uncomfortable sitting front row at a fashion show and would be looking around wondering where the buffalo wings are hiding and why nobody is yelling "touchdown," Eddie Cibrian was perfectly at home at the fashion show.
Eva Longoria's Keeps It Designer in Washington, D.C.
Eva Longoria is currently in Washington D.C. doing some good. She attended The Farm Worker Help Bill press conference at the House Triangle this AM.

Eva was rocking a dress by Victoria Beckham design. Eva always supports her bestie by wearing her designs.

I would support my bestie too if she made amazing clothes. I wonder if Eva gets a discount on the clothes.

Top 5 Wedding Dress Trends
Reese Witherspoon walked down the aisle for the second time over the weekend wearing a custom designed Monique Lhuillier for her second “big” day.

Lhuillier is a favorite of celebrity brides including Carrie Underwood as well as Alicia Silverstone, Jewel and Pink. Britney even wore Lhuillier to her wedding to K-Fed back in 2004.

Given that Reese is notoriously private, there are very little details on Reese’s dress, but it won’t hurt to guess what style of dress the bride opted to wear.

Here are the latest trends this season for Bridal gowns. What design do you guys think Reese wore on her big day?

It’s all about the oversized flowers:
Go big or go home! Big, puffy wedding gowns have always been the top choice for traditional brides, but these days it’s all about the flowers. Floral designs debuted a few seasons ago, but they’ve been upgraded to large and in your face flowers. Reese doesn’t seem like the type to wear this sort of dress because it is too much for her simple taste, but you never know. She might have stepped out of her comfort zone for her big day.

Glamour Girl:
Some brides-to-be's don’t like to go over the top with the big puffy dresses. They like to keep things simple and classy. Reese seems like she would be one of the brides to wear a more simple, yet glamorous gown walking down the aisle. I’m thinking her wedding gown resembled something she would wear on a red carpet, but in white.

Show Some Leg:
If you don’t want to wear a traditional long gown on your big day, you are in luck. Short is in! Reese is always wearing the same kind of knee length dresses on the carpet so maybe she decided to go the untraditional route while walking down the aisle?

Lace:
Lace is one of the most elegant bridal gown trends, but it’s very hard to pull off. It doesn’t look good on all body types. Basically, you have to be really skinny and tall to pull this look off. If you have a little more baggage the lace takes over looking more like a tablecloth rather than a wedding gown. Lace is one of the top 2 looks that would be something Reese would wear.

Corset Bodices:
Suck it in ladies! Built in corsets have always saved brides on their big day, but the latest trend is all about showing the corset off. Yes, that will probably make the dress look like lingerie, but if you’re a bride that’s on the sexier side I’m thinking this look is right up your alley. We’re sure to see a lot of these dresses for Vegas weddings, but not for someone like Reese, unless it’s done very tastefully.

Monique Lhullier Sketches Bella's Twilight Wedding Dress
SPOILER ALERT! Eclipse has just begun filming in Vancouver, which means we’re just that much closer to seeing Edward and Bella get married! In the book series, the young lovers don’t make things official until the fourth one, Breaking Dawn. But couture designers are already doing sketches of what they think Bella’s wedding dress should look like.

Designers like Christian Siriano, Monique Lhuillier, and Zac Posen are among the few who have gotten bit by the Twilight bug. And we must say, the designs are gorgeous!

We know Bella isn’t one for dressing up, but surely she couldn’t pass up one of these designs! Click here for all ten. Which is your favorite for Bella’s biggest day?
Country Girls Hit the Red Carpet

The stars of Country took over Las Vegas this weekend and saddled up on the red carpet for a grand Ol' time! Taylor Swift looked stunning in a red one-shouldered Angel Sanchez gown. She matched her beautiful gown with fire engine red lipstick and Neil Lane jewelry.

Perhaps taking a cue from Taylor or picking up on what seems to be the trend of the year, Carrie Underwood was exceptionally frothy in a pale pink one-shouldered gown.

Nicole Kidman hit Las Vegas with not a line on her face, but some pretty serious threads. The L'Wren Scott embroidered gown was extremely conservative in the front, but when she turned around she showed off a completely bare back.

Miley Cyrus looked refined in a Monique Lhuillier gown. The dress was definitely a tasteful look for the evening.

Kellie Pickler sure picked a dress last night. The country crooner was dripping in gold in a Zuhair Murad gown. We loved her look and thought she was one of the best-dressed ladies of the night.

LeAnn Rimes showed up to the award show, rocking a short cocktail dress sans her husband.

That’s your ACM wrap-up, we will see ya'll next year!

Monique Lhuillier Brings The Tropics To NYC Fashion Week
The Queen of Red Carpet gowns Monique Lhuillier unveiled her Spring 2009 collection at NYC Fashion week. Hollyscoop was front and center with one of the hottest tickets in town.

The inspiration for Lhuillier was none other than a vacation to the Bahamas. “I took a little getaway vacation to the Bahamas and it all came together the colors and just the rawness of everything.”

Unlike past collections, Lhuillier displayed a organic touch with textures, layers and sheers. “The collection feels lighter, its spring summer should be about showing great skin and if not the illusion of showing more skin.”

With so much creativity we wanted to know who Lhuillier‘s muse is? “A Modern busy lady with a wonderful life or who wants to feel special in her clothes, these clothes aren’t clothes you wear to work.”

Indeed these gowns are not for the office, as often seen on Hollywood heavyweights such as Katie Holmes, Reese Witherspoon, Hilary Swank to name a few.

In regards to constantly seeing her gowns at major Hollywood events Llulhier says, “I am so blessed to have the support of Hollywood, I am based in Los Angeles so nice to have them call me “

Rising star Michelle Monaghan is quickly becoming a hot commodity in town. Last night she shined on the red carpet for the movie premiere of her latest flick "Made of Honor" starring alongside Mr. McDreamy, Patrick Dempsey.

Michelle looked stunning in her Monique Lhuillier black gown. We saw this dress on the catwalks for Fall 08 and Michelle definitely worked it well on the red carpet.

Since the dress was rich, Michelle worked it right by sporting minimal jewelry, simple make-up and hot bangs. In our book Michelle gets an A+.
