FASHION PICKS: BANDED UP…
Monday, September 17, 2007

If you’re looking for the ultimate sexy, tight, “freakum” dress then you might want to hop on the bandage craze. Celebrities have been all over the Herve Leger creations and guys are thanking him for it. Now going by Herve Leroux., the designer first created this signature dress during the 1980s, receiving critical acclaim even then for the body hugging pieces.
BCBG Max Azria Group has acquired the Herve Leger name, and is releasing a collection for Fall 2007 remaking tons of Leger’s vintage pieces using his same design technique. Most of these remakes and originals we’ve seen already on Beyonce, Kimora Lee, Eve, Janet Jackson, Rihanna, and the list goes on…
You can currently buy Herve Leger dresses online at Intermix or Net-A-Porter, or you can visit a Leger boutique in NY, Vegas, and California. Replicas are currently being seen one by one at places like Bebe and Marciano by Guess. I’m sure we will see more of these tight creations in the future.

LOL@Beyonce’s outfit…
The fit of Christina Milian’s is gorgeous.
But this is weird to me… This bandage dress has been everywhere, it’s another overly popularized celebrity trend… And, while there are many designs, it’s still a recognizable trend… I think. I don’t think the design is subtle enough to be seen as classic…I definitely think the make of the dress is considered now, a trend… When I have time, I’ll read up on it…Cause I’m super confused right now… I don’t see how this design (because, while it’s obviously one of his banded designs, there are tons of makes and styles) is going to stick… Who knows…

you have to have the body to pull it off. You cant be all sloppy, and flabby w a Leger dress on. You have to look like this.
(rihanna in the dress)
Otherwise go home and step your game up.

I love these dresses. Too bad I can’t afford one. Guess I’ll have to wait for a knock-off version. So, did he sell his name? What’s the controversy behind the Leger/Lacroix sitch-ation?

Yuck Kim HoDashian, she prolly spead her STDs to that dress. WTF is wrong with her face? It’s an oval. This low-rent Nicole Scherzinger lookin non talented stank needs to crawl back under the rock came from and stay there. Her pimp gets a cut of all her profits, so I guess she gotta make some money, on second thought
I don’t suit Kimora cause she aint got the body for it.
Everyone else looks good!

Beyonce: She looig for that dress. Something does not seem correct. Maybe its the big hair. I cannot pinpoint it. She looks better w/ dressesthat fall at her knees. She still looks polished though.
Christine Milian: Dress fits her like a glove. But hairdo does nothing for her looks.
Kim Kardashian: Dress and color compliments her very well. She looks polished .Her reputation may be bad, but she always takes very nice pics. Her makeup always looks natural as well.
Kimora: dress color does nothing for her. Where is her boobs?
Mel B.: I dont know why she always looks unkempt or cheap to me. There is something about her that makes her look dirty. Is it her teeth? LOL. I just dont know…Maybe its the thought of Eddie Murphy and her together and the drama behind it.

Honestly, if you look at more pictures of Kim in that dress she look like an overstuffed sausage.I like her style though because she be on point.The cut of the dress if gorgeous though.
On a side note I seen Rihanna wearing Herve’ Legar and she looks great in it also (Bet 07 Awards and PreGrammy Party )

These dresses are NOT for everyone- you must have a teeny tiny waist and tame hips to get away with this.
Might I add that I think Beyonce looks the worst in this dress. It’s already a risque’ dress, but she takes it to a slutty level by wearing it 4 inches shorter than need be. Talk about overkill…
Kim K wears it the best.

Some people are really special. It has to be teenagers posting comments on these blogs…..
Anywho….Beyonce’s dress is not flattering. I think she was performing in this dress so it makes it ok. I’m sure it looked a lot better with her dancing around. I hate the one-strap.
Kimora’s looks a little odd prob because she didn’t add a bra or liner for a boob lift. However it is still a great looking dress.
Everyone else looks great in their dresses.

I think some of the thick booty video models could look really good with this look, cause they got the body for it.
I’m talkin about Esther Baxter, Ki Toy Johnson, Melyssa Ford, Vida Guerra, Buffie The Body, and so on!

No Carlissa, I usually think Bee looks wonderful, but personally the one strap look dont suit her classy-self. It looks a bit H.A.M.

I like Beyonce’s because it’s different. Beyonce looks beautiful in that dress and her Gisuppe’s were on point with it. She was one of the first I saw to rock Herve (in his recent craze). She wore it for the BET Awards when she performed DejaVue. The hair is banging too.
Such a trendsetter.

Christina Millian and Kimora look like Barbie dolls.
Kim K, Beyonce, and Mel b, doesn’t where those outfits well to me….they look sort of stuffed in them. If you have curves, in my opinion, you should stay away from some styles. Looks like they are trying to hold in some fat or something.
