I've read that this was one of Kate's fav looks too. I wish she would emulate that hair and makeup more often.... loves it. I also LOVED the golden dress she wore to either Globes or Oscars for Almost famous... very deep neckline gold dress with long sleeves...beautiful hair and makeup too - her face was different back then though... anyways, THAT is my fav look on her red carpet style ever.
Havent seen those looks in years.
Personally I dont think Rachel Zoe is all that to rave about - i doubt she really has the time to really think about "options" herself anymore. She just brings out the latest and most extravagant dresses of the big designers, not necessarily based on their merit or event appropriateness. Kate should trust her OWN style and insticts more when it comes to fashion and avoid the forementioned blunders!
