Alicia Keys caused a stir in the comment area with what she wore at her David Letterman appearance last week. After checking all those email requests and a little research, I found out that her curve hugging dress was reportedly part of Calvin Klein’s 2008 Pre-Fall collection, which was designed by Francisco Costa.
Thanks to Chi Chi at Urban Hoopla, I learned that her shoes were by Italian designer Sergio Rossi and will be available later this year when the 2008 Fall line releases. Though it’s hard to find a replica of such a great outfit, I tried my best with the finds after the cut per some of your requests…
Get Alicia’s look with the Kenneth Cole turtleneck dress available online at Kennethcole.com. The shoes above are decent and cheaper alternatives to Alicia’s – which may cost you a good $600 or $700!
I dont like the ones that Alicia are wearing with the metal plate over them. But the black ones with the buckle are cute.
I’m not sure if I’m feeling that look on Alicia. I can deal with the dress. But the crushed velvet shoes are too Prince-like for me (ooo-OO)
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Alicia’s shoes, thought the beige Nine West ones are a cute substitute!
Her shoes r sooooooooo fye!!! She been real stylish lately
Man stop hating Alicia is killing that dress, a lot of women wish they could fit a dress like that including me. I got the rear but gotta work on the stomach. Go alicia, hard work pays off! I WANT THOSE SHOESSSS
I love the gray but the black one are hot too.
HOTNESS!!!
Cute shoes. Wish I was feeling this look on Alicia, but I’m not. Seems like it’s not natural, like someone is forcing her to be more dolled up. Something is just off.
But I’m a fan of hers, so back off.
lil bitty titties
I can dig the alternatives. Not too shabby for ppl who are on a budget.
Everybody needs to be on a budget being that gas is so damn high.
I thinking about selling my car just so I can have gas money. LOL
I feel like she has white stylist. Because if she had black ones they would be str8 up and tell her she looks chunky as f*k. Shes a beautiful girl, but her and i are in the same boat when it comes to curves…they need to stop making her “white girl” image and put her in something flattering. I feel like this dress was made for one of those anorexic poo poo head thora birch or that adams family girl…not alicia this full figured woman.
Love those shoes!!!
tianna wassup wit findin out what shoes JayZ and usher were both wearing?
I seen a version of Alicia’s shoes that is almost a perfect match (color&style wise) somewhere else when I think of the site I will provide the link.
@ # 20 blk dds
gas is 4.03 for regular unleaded in my region., and my car takes premium! I am looking for a bike.
I mean # 10 Blk DDs
She looks amazing. I love her style now. She has evolved into a very sophistocated lady. Her songs are incredible (nostalgic when they need to be, and insightful when they need to be… see there)….. Alicia is the one right now.
lol @ #10 and that gas comment.
Tianna- you a beast ma!
that dress is too damn small and even tho she got tha ass for that dress it looks kinda video girl for her body type. She got a body but she shouldnt wear that kinda stuff imo
I like alot of Alicia’s styles, this is another hot one. She is indeed killin’ that fit.
I love the shoe selections that you guys posted….excellent…good look thanks!
Love the shoes.
The Dress & The Shoes are Banging !
Alicia was loking good !!!!
#10: I feel you, and I have atleast a 45 min commute each way.
I will be purchasing the Michael Antonio’s asap.
I love those shoes!
Uhm, yall no lie, I don’t even look to see what gas cost anymore. Whatever $20 on pump suchinsuch gets me then thats what I’m going for. Oh and my car takes premium as well. So while everybody else screaming about what unleaded gas cost, I got you beat by twenty cents.
Tried to get the “cheap” stuff and my check engine light came on. WTF!
The top of my gas tank is probably rusted. I haven’t filled my tank to the brim in months!
Licia looks great as i said in the previous post of her at Letterman! LOL at selling the car to get gas money…don’t even think about a bugeted road trip with the gas prices.
Angel how do i get my gravatar uploaded
Alicia’s Shoes are gorgeous..And the dress goes nicely with them.
I also like the dress with the belt.
American apparel has great turrtle neck stretch dresses that fit just like A.Keys dress
That fit is crazy hot! I LOVE those shoes! I have some with the buckle. That silver plate is gorgeous. Hawt!
#11…we get enuff of that shyt from white people. Why isn’t her body type–which represents the majority of the black and even the latino culture–appropriate for this dress and when u say “full-figured”, many people (mostly our caucasian counterparts) usually associate that with the word “fat”. Does Alicia look fat to you…??? Maybe someone white has told you too many times that your body type is not acceptable and you feel that since Alicia Keys has a similar body type she shouldn’t be allowed to get away with it…really sad mentality you know! Who da hell wants to sit and look at some skeletal frame in a dress like that…HELL NAW…You cannot sit here and tell me that she doesn’t look GREAT…thickness and all (and I mean that in a positive way). And what do you mean by “white girl” image??..WTF is that all about…?? I hope you get over your “self hate” and hate on thick black girls mentality real soon…BOOOOOOOOO for you!
Those shoes were perfect to hide her kankles (fat ankles). She looked really nice.
This was a good look on Alicia, the shoes are FIRE!
The beige subsittutes are cool, but I like the buckle on the black ones. Not feeling the boring Steve Madden dress tho.
@MKAY yes you right about American apparel they do have them i order it in black girl that dress fit me like a glove love it.
She definitely turned lots of heads in this outfit. Including mine. The shoes were to die for.
Ya’ll please consult the mirror before putting on Alicia’s dress. It’s not for everybody. Curves are sexy, but not when they’re on your belly…
BITCH!!! BITCH!!! I SERIOUSLY HATE ALICIA FOR GETTING THESE SHOES BEFORE I DID. HEIFER COW!! That’s why i hated your whole new album accept for two songs (i need you, lesson learned). Oh wait..it’s three songs–I loved “Superwoman.” Stop yodeling and straining in your songs and singing about the same damn love topics all the time, you heifer. I better now see you prance around in these shoes again or i’m going to seriously hate you. LMAO Bitch!!!
That’s how much I hate her for wearing these lovely shoes
Bitch, you got problems.
I liked the other outfit that A.Keys wore better. This one is hot but I liked the other one better. I do like the Steve Madden dress and the cheaper shoes. They are both cute.
Lol @ #39. I concur lol.
She looks great. Love dress, shoes hair, makeup! Thumbs up!
Love Alicia’s shoes and I acutally like both the shoes you found Angel…
Thanks… Off to their websites to shop.
LUV the Shoes….They are the BIZNESS!!!
i think alicia looks great the dress fits her perfectly, and doesn’t look like on video chick. i think its a major upgrade from the cornrows and baggy jeans.
Well I am about the same weight as A.key I might be a tad thicker Flat stomach little boobies and wide hips!! I love my figure and so do all the MEN.. I rocked a simular look this weekend and couldnt keep the Men off me!! So Rep for all the THICK women A. Keys you doing your thing she looks beautiful Every body is not meant to be a size 2 or 4 her dress was the truth and so waere her shoes!! GET BACK HATERS!!!
to those of you HATERZ who dont like her shoes, you’re just mad that you cant afford them. you mean to tell me, you like the fake knock-off look-a-likes but you dont like the “REAL THANG’…….GO FIGURE!!!!! ya’ll chicken heads kill me hatin on the real shit, but you love that fake shit. go google the price, better yet, go order you some and then you can hate on something. Ya’ll just mad that my girl is swagg-splashing on ya’ll Reebok broads, instead of hatin, get cha’ rain coats out, so you dont get wet!!!!!!
TIANNA FAILED WITH THE ALETERNATIVES, ESPECIALLY THE SHOES LMFAO
Her dress is gorgeous and simple and I Love them shoes (hers) and thanks Tianna
#5, no one cares if you have the rear for it, and no one asked. Yall chicks need to stop letting your a*s validate you. Stop caring so much about what the black man thinks of you cause he aint worried bout you.
#9, Alicia has a way better shape than you could ever have so stop hatting. and her ta tas are a perfect size, don’t no body want no swaety ass knee scrappers, when you can have perky tennis balls!
Love Alicia’s shoes…PERIOD.
i love the shoes. love, love, love them!!!
OMG..
thanx TIANNA..!!
i ♥ those shoes.
gurl..ur a savior…lol
#11…Alicia Keys & the term Full Figured do not belong in the same sentence.
Latifah & Mo’ Nique are considered Full Figured/ Plus Size.
I AM PLUS SIZED & PROUD.
Stop hating on Alicia., the girl is working that dress
AND
if a BIG GIRL like me ain’t mad at her, than you shouldn’t be mad either…LOL
BTW, I like both Alicia’s shoes & the alternative ones
@ 11 vickied
what white girl image?? she half white lol – that dress is not made for anoerexic poo poo,they would have to eat 2 weeks straight to fit in to that dress.
- tha dress hits her in the right spts.
The whole ensemble is FLAWLESS!!! She looks amazing…Keep doing your thing Ms. Keys…
#38 Its time for your MEDS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alicia’s shoes are bangin.
Another thing, yall better stop putting that overly priced crap [premium] in your car. Regular does the same exact thing.
The shoes are so HOT.The dress fits her nice.She looked great!! Go Alicia !!!!,
Yup it’s true she has been really stylish lately but I’m feeling it tho…
I know we’re used to Alicia in a more simple/natural look but she looks beautiful like this as well.
Get ‘Em Girl
#48 that’s not nice. I think the alternatives are really great! Thanks Tianna.
Shoes are ugly
