Get America Ferrera's Red Carpet Look
If you're planning a Hollywood quinceañera, give yourself a glam '50s-inspired makeover. The look never failed Hollywood legends like Audrey Hepburn and Ava Gardner, and today it's looking hotter than ever on Latina stars like America Ferrera.

Anna Mouglalis' film 'Coco Chanel & Igor Stravkinsky’ closed the Cannes film festival, and so of course Mouglalis had to make sure that she wore an outfit to remember. But never fear, Karl Lagerfeld was on hand.

Lagerfeld created the emerald gown in homage to Ava Gardner who Lagerfeld feels Mouglalis resembles. It is a striking colour and has a very silver screen siren feel to it. It is also the sort of gown that La Femme Ava would have worn.

Who is the loveliest star of all? In her heyday, Ava Gardner (1922-1990) could ask her mirror that question, confident that it would not answer with another's name. In 1948, when Universal made One Touch of Venus, there was only one plausible choice for the title role. Gardner's face was her fame and fortune, but satisfaction in life and work eluded her.

Contents of the London apartment where Ava Gardner lived as a recluse until her death last January - including some 75 pairs of shoes - will be auctioned off next week. Many of these shoes are by the most luxurious shoe designers in the world: Vivier and Ferragamo, among others.
 
That pic in #3221 is one of the most beautiful. I also like #3227, very haunting, like one of those 'ghost' pictures, but you can still see Ava's flawless features.

As always, just because I don't post many comments doesn't mean I don't appreciate all the contributions. Thanks to everybody!

About that Ava portrayal debate, her is Karl Lagerfeld opinion:

You can also find an edit of Anna as Ava shot by Karl here.
 
Thank you, Harumi, for the shoot! Have never seen it. :flower:
I can see the resemblance, but as Karl himself wrote, she's not a look-alike. The pictures are great, though. (:

This retro 40's or 50's glam hairdo has that old hollywood feel to it. This particular style was inspired by Ava Gardner, a rich dark brown without that grayish sheen that many of the dark colors have. This just has warm chocolate underhuse and chestnut lowlights. To complete the look a subtle mesh chignon holder is at the base of the neck, holding the hair in place, decorated with pearls and a white orchid for true sophistication. A very simple and elegant haristyle, great for your vintage and retro looks and definitely something Ava woulld have worn
