I feel much has been written about all the usual suspects on the red carpets from the Oscars and all the parties, but little has been said about my two favourite A list sisters who, like the true divas they are, attended Vanity Fair's Oscars after party in UBER style. Joan even Tweeted saying "What fun we had at #VFHollywood party for 8 hours!". That's hardcore partying! And in heels!
Well, here they are, Joan and Jackie, who actually arrived together (pic of their limo shot below), in all their fabulous Hollywood glory.
But what did my blogger buddies think of their looks?? Find out...
Joan knows a girl always matches the muff to the cuffs! This glittery brown perfectly compliments her hairpiece and that cheeky slit shows that this movie star still has oodles of sexy appeal.
Jackie still knows how to do an 80s power shoulder and use the illusion of black and white, in the right places, to flatter and bring the focus all up onto the face.
These two sisters are like night and day when it comes to fashion, and both seem to be holding onto the “Dynasty” look with gusto. The Collins sisters have a free pass when it comes to style as they are just so clearly fabulous no matter what they step out in. It could be worse. They could be out and about in mini skirts and crop tops. They dress age appropriate and proud. What’s not to love about that?
Joan can still pull off the glamour puss at 79-years-young and those mink sleeves are bang on trend for the coming autumn/winter 2013 season. If anything, I'd say she pulled it off for a lady of her years, my only query being the slightly too tight pull across the midriff. But really, who could knock 'The Bitch'?
Monochrome maybe about to be all the rage next season, but Jackie showed us how NOT to rock it. The sequin sleeves of the heavy, 1980s tinged, white jacket may have been lifted from the far back of designer, Alistair Blair's wardrobe (circa 1986).
There's no getting away from the fact these two sisters (like Cher) hold back time in the skin, hair and make-up stakes but in Jackie's case, the smart OTT '80s business women 'suit' styling for the biggest night of the year is more dating and a signifier of age.
***And moi...***
Look, the fact is, the Collins sisters are still and always have been the MOST glamourous stars of Hollywood and beyond since they were catapulted into the lime light. And thank God they are. Red carpets can be really boring places. Invite the the Js and you're always guaranteed old Hollywood glamour, a nod back to 80s power dressing and oodles of sparkles. MY FAVOURTE LADIES OF ALL TIME, I THANK YOU FOR ATTENDING THIS PARTY!
What do YOU think lovely reader?
