I wonder what her house looks like. i wonder if it's really glam and elegant or more simple

I like the leather jacket paired with the green pullover. And I don't mind the denim skirt.

I love her leather jacket. Such a gorgeous color.

I love her leather jacket. Such a gorgeous color.

yes indeed it's a bit lighter than most of the leather jackets
I don't really like the outfit but it's ok

Yay, a full-length shot! I adore Rodarte, but more and more I'm starting to realize their clothes are very difficult to look great in. Every time I see a celeb wearing the label, it overpowers them. Even on someone as striking as Dasha or Natalie Portman.

Russian Fetish

A Moscow Party for David Lynch and Christian Louboutin

Dasha Zhukova is plenty busy with her much discussed new gig as editor of Pop. But that didn't stop the Russian impresaria from wrangling both David Lynch and Christian Louboutin all the way to Moscow for the opening of their Fetish photography and shoe exhibition at her Garage Center for Contemporary Culture. On Tuesday night, the Russian capital's chicest, along with Western transplants like Josephine de la Baume, Charlotte Sarkozy, Byrdie Bell, and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld, celebrated the collaboration with a traditional dinner at the Central House of Literature, one of the few restaurants in the city that still boasts its original pre-Communist decor. If most passed on a gray meat the English translation of which was "neck," the caviar went down easy, and everyone was impressed when a pack of performing gypsies busted out of a double door in the middle of dinner. The belly dancers had Louboutin on his feet, swinging this way and that—and perhaps too fast: Later, when he attempted to pound a shot, it somehow ended up pegging Sophia Hesketh in the head.

At speech time, Lynch declared, "Tonight is all about friendship." For her part, Zhukova added that the museum prides itself on blending the line between contemporary art and fashion. But when the mic was passed to Louboutin, the cobbler blushed. "We don't make speeches in France," he said. "But yeah, what they said: friends, fashion, and art." "Hey," Zhukova hollered, "he can't get off that easy."

Thanks for the pics!!!! Interesting choice for a dress.... don´t now if i like it or not. But she looks nice!!!

 

[Party_Vixen]

She looks great in the purple rodarte. She styled it very well with the cropped leather jacket and metallic louboutins. It doesn't seem to overwhelm her like the blue version she wore. Thanks so much for all the pictures .

^^^ ITA!!!

I love how she put the purple Rodarte dress with the little leather jacket. I think most people, as mentioned are overwhelmed in Rodarte and furthermore are too afraid to do anything else different with Rodarte. She treats it like a normal dress! And hey, it looks cute with the jacket.

 

[GasolineRainbow]

I think, with Dasha at least, going bare-legged tempers Rodarte's tendency to overpower. And her patterned clutch complements the dress so well, surprisingly. It could easily have competed with the dress, and not in a good way. And one pesky problem with Rodarte is that it looks best against an unfussy background...and few people around you.

It seems that not only does the dress require care in how you style it, you also need to worry about how your location is styled. Like, she looks better in the third, darkly lit picture, than in the first two with the credit card background and the other people next to her.

[jackie_oh]

She's so pretty! Love her in #1315, the dress + shoes + leather jacket are such a perfect combo!

 

[DiamondSea]

I really dislike that leather jacket, but she looks amazing in the picture without it.

 

[ivoreece]
