Best Dressed: Grammy Awards 2012

 photos via celebrity-center

If you regularly follow up with my blog, you know that I'm typically biased when it comes to Lady Gaga—well, she's not on the list this time. I was not so fond of Versace's designs (cough: I'm looking at you, Nicki Minaj!).

What I was fond of was all the sparkly numbers. Let's start with the night's biggest winner (of ALL 6 nominations!): Adele kept it classic in a glimmering black Armani gown with three-quarter sleeves, Louboutin heels, and Harry Winston diamonds. Her beauty look: blonde bombshell, long lashes, + bold crimson lips.

Katy Perry was blue from head-to-toe in a sparkly and glimmering powder blue Elie Saab gown. I wasn't so sure about the hair, but I suppose the look wouldn't be her own without it.

Taylor Swift donned a golden + gorgeous floor length Zuhair Murad gown, with a mandarin collar and a sweeping train. Her smokey and subtle stained lip completed the glamorous + dramatic look.

Kelly Rowland looked stunning in a blush Alberta Ferretti dress embellished with silver flower beading and soft draping. Lorraine Schwartz chandelier earrings also played up the embellishments on the dress.

Last but not least, Alicia Keys in her sleek and minimal Alexandre Vauthier black dress with rounded shoulder pads and metal plate. This is the first time I've come across this new French designer. j'adore. Also, her black pointy ankle strap heels look terribly painful, but it definitely pulled the bold dress together.

Grammy Awards 2012: Who Wore What? Katy Perry in Elie Saab Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2012

Katy Perry in Elie Saab Spring/Summer Haute Couture: Katy Perry went more "Lady-like" at this year's Grammy Awards red carpet with this elegant light blue all-over sequined boat-neck gown with a satin waist-tie and three-quarter sleeves from Lebanese fashion designer Elie Saab. It's Haute Couture which means it's all hand-made--even the seams! And it probably took hundreds and hundreds of hours to sew--which also means, if you were to buy this gown, it would set you back around $100,000, if not more.

I like it on her, the color, the shape...But more importantly, do you guys like "Lady-like" 50's elegant Katy Perry? Or do we wish she would have gone more "Kooky Katy"? Let me know!

2011 MTV Video Music Awards: Who Wore What? Katy Perry in Atelier Versace



Katy Perry in Atelier Versace: Asiana Mini!!! Fully sequined (by hand, thank you VERY MUCH!! It's Atelier Versace!! The brand's version of Haute Couture and probably estimated at costing approximately $30,000-40,000, if not more, if she were to actually buy it). Katy loves short beaded dresses, as I know--since she "honored" me not too long ago by wearing one of my NIKOLAKI sequined mini dresses! I think she looks sooo cute, the dress fits her just right (I think it was custom made for her) and I love that she finished off the ASIANA theme with a Japanese-style umbrella and cherry blossom flowers in her pink hair. She looks like the Hostess at a VERY UPSCALE version of Hollywood's Yamashiro Restaurant!



Red Carpet Report: "The Smurfs in 3D" World Premiere


"The Smurfs in 3D" Movie Premiere BLUE Carpet:

Katy Perry in a Custom The Blonds corset (with her character in crystals across the front) and matching White Ruffle Skirt

"The Smurfs in 3D" Movie Premiere occurred in NYC on Sunday at the Ziegfield Theater. Naturally instead of a Red Carpet, it was Blue...Smurf Blue! Miss Katy Perry attended wearing a custom crystal strapless bustier dress designed by The Blonds (Phillipe & David Blond, NYC-based fashion and costume designers for Kylie, Beyoncé, Miley, Adam Lambert, Britney). They created other looks for Miss Katy in the past but this one had a very special sequined "Smurfette" emblazoned across the front. I thought she looked very cute! Loved her hair and make-up as well as her Blue Louboutins!

Actress Jayma Mays wore a very simple apple-green strapless mini-dress by NYC-based designer (and red carpet fave) Reem Acra. Very apropos for the event and quite striking.

"Modern Family" Latina-Fabulosa, Sofia Vergara showed up in a floor-length violet-colored strapless gown from Missoni Resort 2012, featuring hints of that fashion house's iconic "zig-zag" print motif.

And then...Guess who was also there? Yep, that's Tim Gunn!! With The Smurfs!! Oh Tim, he just finished taping the newest season (Season 9) of Project Runway which begins airing this Thursday night on Lifetime. Tim's BIG ear-to-ear smile lets me know he probably was just happy it was all over!!! Those 14-hour shoot days can get to you! (trust me, been there/done that!). Oh, and yes, by the way, Tim look dashing as always on the blue carpet and can't wait to see his guest starring role in the movie!

Katy Love...

I was so excited when THE ONE and ONLY Katy Perry wore our NIKOLAKI lilac sequined silk chiffon one-shoulder cocktail dress to her PURR Fragrance Launch in Mexico City this past weekend that well, it was 'icing on the cake" to see some sites give some "Nikolaki-Katy Perry" Shout Out's. First, InStyle.com, one of my FAVE sites has THIS, and also...

People Magazine's site did a fun "Three Dresses In One Day" Poll. Just so you are on the "up-and-up": Miss Katy actually wore THREE Dresses for the Launch (Outfit-change DIVA!). Below is the site's Headline:

PURR-Gorgeous: Katy Perry in NIKOLAKI Spring 2011, New Launch of Purr by Katy Perry Fragrance Mexico City


Well kids, my NIKOLAKI design partner, David Paul and I barely touched down in LA from our whirlwind of a quick trip to showcase our Collection in San Antonio Texas at the SUPER-fabulous Alteza Penthouse when we found out that...


The ONE and ONLY Katy Perry wore one of our Spring 2011 Collection dresses to the Launch of her new Purr Fragrance in one of my favorite cities: Mexico City! It's a lilac silk chiffon hand-beaded sequin paillette one-shoulder cap-sleeved cocktail mini dress with a cowl-draped front. Of course, we think she looked AMAZING! Love the jet-black "pin-up" model hair and STOMPING heels!

Other Worldly Shoes

As mentioned by Luxirare and StyleBubble... These Anastasia Radevich creations blew my mind. The following shoes are from her latest collection called Kenetik. They are true sculptural and technical masterpieces.

As a shoe designer, I really appreciate the love and creation that goes into shoe design. The blood and sweat behind the end result. When I see designs of this caliber I love to guess at what inspired the designer...


The heel is like black ink gliding through water. It's so beautiful and unlike anything I've seen.





Maybe she was inspired by liquidity. Dancing moving pigment. 

Bjork's Vespertine album comes to mind as well. Something about the artwork reminds me of the fluidity of the heel. 


These shoes have LED lighting in them... behind a screen of mesh, they remind me of electric Jellyfish. Or a far away galaxy.






There is something very alien like about jellyfish. Something about these shoes as well.

Whatever her inspiration was, she has inspired me. These are amazing and I'd love to get my hands on a pair.






By the way, Some other LED shoes...
