Dior has released the new Miss Dior Cherie commercial starring Natalie Portman.   The 30 second fragrance ad is pretty and feminine, think roses, ribbons and a little romance.  Natalie wore a little black dress which is no doubt from the Christian Dior collection.  She is joined by a love interest, fully attired in a tuxedo to complement her LBD. 

Natalie Portman went bare in her new Dior Miss Cherie fragrance ad for spring; it’s the first from the campaign and it is eye catching.  They kept it from being provocative by keeping the image demure; the light pink background and black bow in her hair were more sweet than sexy.  There is nothing overt about her expression as she modestly shields her breasts with folded arms.  It is sensual and very Parisian.

Marion Cotillard is on the cover of U.S. Vogue’s July 2010 issue.  The French actress is both glamorous and regal in her purple Dior dress.  Fashion photographer Mario Testino shot the cover in the South of France, and the purple dress is reminiscent of the bold burgundy wines from that region.  Cotillard talks movies and her character inspirations in the magazine interview.  She also credits her Oscar-winning performance in  La Vie en Rose with opening many doors and creating great career opportunities.

The Met Gala is practically a fashion show on the red carpet, and it did not disappoint last night.  The bold-named and the beautiful came out in large numbers last night.  Many were dressed and accompanied by some of the biggest names in fashion.  We compiled a list of the best dressed.  Let us know if you agree. 

1. Sarah Jessica Parker is always at home on the red carpet.  The actress looked stunning in her Halston Heritage gown last night.  Her pleated gown maintained the design integrity of Halston while staying true to SJP’s personal style.  Her hair and accessories played the perfect supporting role to the dress.

2. Marion Cotillard went Hollywood glam in her Dior gown.  She sparkled like a star from head-to-toe.  The be-jeweled neckline and her hair in beautiful soft waves completed the look. 

3. Zoe Saldana was sleek and sexy in her one-shoulder Calvin Klein gown.  The beaded black dress was stunningly simple while adorned with only a few accessories.  It proves that sometimes the understated makes just right statement.

4. Anne Hathaway was Cinderella in her strapless Valentino gown.  Her diamond necklace went perfectly with the brilliant sequins surrounding the bodice and full skirt.  Hathaway was definitely the beautiful princess last night.

5. Jessica Alba channeled Old Hollywood with her hair, makeup and that gorgeous dress designed by Sophie Theallet for GAP.  Satin can be a very tricky fabric because it can make you appear larger, but Alba was trim and svelte last night.  That’s because of the expert draping of the designer and the actress’ figure.  Jessica Alba has donated her gown for auction and all proceeds will go to The Metropolitan Museum of Art in support of The Costume Institute Gala Benefit.

Seventeen year old Karlie Kloss is on top of the modeling world.  She currently has a Dior and Hermes campaign, and as of the Christmas break, she now has her driver’s license.  Who says Santa does not exist?  If that were not enough, Karlie is also on the February cover of  Italian Vogue.  It’s safe to say that she is living a model’s dream.  Her Dior campaign is sultry with a hint of old hollywood, and the Hermes ad is soft and sweet.  The ads are total opposites of the other, but each showcases the model’s range.  Both ads explain why she is a model in demand, and why she has made our Rollcall list this week.
