Rachel Weisz was a total bombshell in Alexander McQueen at the Madrid premiere of “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.” The actress accompanied her husband, Daniel Craig.

She selected a fitted black dress with a scoop neckline, cap sleeves and a flirty mid-calf hem. It was a flattering silhouette that she belted as a final exclamation point.

A pair of Roger Vivier heels and clutch accessorized her head-turning look. I loved the monochramatic ensembled.

Her long dark hair was styled in cascading curls. The makeup was as dramatic as her outfit, with strong brows and crimson red lips.

Elizabeth Olsen selected an Alexander McQueen design for the premiere of “Martha Marcy May Marlene” at the New York Film Society. It was a black halter dress with puffed details in the neckline and skirt. There was a bit of transparency in the hem of the skirt, and that was an unexpected surprise. Texture was the overall theme in the actress’ look for the event, it was evident in her attire and accessories. An ornate, metallic belt, and a gorgeous pair of peep-toe heels with gold threading fully complemented her ensemble. The clutch was leather with metal hardware. She opted for bold red lipstick because it would standd-out on a neutral face. Her hair was styled in a slightly messy bun, this was perfectly age appropriate.

Alexander McQueen was a clinic in sculpted details and perfectly crafted shapes for Spring 2012. The show opened with fitted looks that took on an hourglass form, the silhouette was on display. Gold, blush, ivory and a black and white print helped to convey this larger than life romantic story. It was aided by ornate and textured textile, and luxurious print. This collection was lingerie-inspired, it was visible in the lace designs on the dresses. The plunging necklines were also a clue. These pieces were pretty and feminine, but in a way only Mcqueen could pull-off. The beautiful floral mini-dresses had texture, proportion and volume, they were wearable art. Leather and lace were paired together for contrast, the hard against soft. The sandals were an updated gladiator-styled. The collection had all the drama one would expect from this fashion house.
