Nigella Lawson starts a fashion explosion
Posted by Administrator on Jul 31, 2009
Nigella Lawson may have been one of the first to make the switch from Domestic Goddess to Brunette Bombshell. And she is right on trend in fashion terms.
The hourglass ‘look’ that Miss Lawson has chosen for several film premieres and has bought in bulk for her summer holidays in the Hamptons is the look that is going like a bomb on the high street.
Miss Lawson, who has been chosen as the female celebrity with the figure most men and women adore, started her plunge-front, retro-look fashion escapades with a couple of well-chosen outfits from Vivienne Westwood’s funky, younger Anglomania collection.
But she soon graduated to the more curvaceous, form-fitting allure of the ‘bombshell dress’ by Katya Wildman, which has become a red-hot seller for the Notting Hill boutique, The Dispensary, and is still available on its website, www.thedispensary.net, for between £160 and £180, depending upon colour and fabric.
If it’s the hug-me-tight, sheath-dress, that looks as if it has just stepped off the set of 1960’s-look TV series, ‘Mad Men’, is the look you are after, look no further than your local branch of Warehouse, Topshop or Dorothy Perkins, just three of the high street household names who are stocking variations on the ‘Bombshell’.
Styling Tips:
Fashion Frontline -For the full-on vintage effect, wear a push-up bra, a statement necklace and heels – and walk with a wiggle. If you’ve got it, flaunt it!
Fashion Faux Pas – accessorise with an old pair of trainers and a cardigan to cover-up the curves. What are you trying to hide?
