Vanity Fair Oscars Party: Elsa Hosk (2022)



We are still in a coronavirus pandemic but you would not know it by looking at the number of celebrities who showed up on the red carpet at the annual Vanity Fair Oscars Party for 2022! Last year, the show did not happen but this year things are a bit more optimistic with the rise in vaccinations and booster shots.

It is THE Oscars after party to attend because all of the non-acting and acting ultra sexy celebrities show up and show out. The VS models love turning heads at this particular event. This year, Victoria's Secret Angel, Elsa Hosk, had everyone taken aback by the bold, custom-designed Mônot gown that showcased her impeccable abs. It seems that after giving birth, many supermodels really dig in to their workout and nutrition plans to get not just back in shape but in better shape than they had ever been!

Elsa Hosk, hmmm ... girl, we see you! And ... hats off to the head designer at Mônot ... making some serious waves in the fashion industry during a global pandemic.

2018 Vanity Fair Oscar Party: Jasmine Tookes



It seems as if Jasmine Tookes rose to model fame ratherly quickly. After only modeling for Victoria's Secret for a few short years, she gained the title of "Angel." The timing seemed right for an industry thirsty for more ethnic inclusion while still staying faithful to the subtle fantasy of being the most desirable woman in the world. With fame comes exposure and with exposure comes expectations. I have to admit that a novice on the red carpet is highly detectable and it seems that many newly famed celebrities don't master the art of true red carpet elegance until they have at least particpated in a few star-studded galas.




Prior to these photos, I had been a bit disappointed with Jasmine Tookes seen in this light. But here, at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party (THE after-party to attend immediately concluding the Oscars), she looks regal, classy and absolutely stunning wearing a one-shoulder gown designed by rising Lebanese couturier Jean-Louis Sabaji who has been hailed already as the "Alexander McQueen of the Middle East." This gown was not made specifically for Jasmine Tookes, however, the way that she looks in it, you would think that it was. Very clever selection for her skin-tone and body shape. The designer describes this dress from his Spring Summer 2018 Couture Collection as "a baroque bronze foiled silk tulle gown with intricate draping adoring [sic] the figure in fluid swirls that flow freely into cascading skirts and a caped sleeve."

With her hair sleeked back in a natural-looking long, straight ponytail and the skin on her face smooth and flawless, she looks like a perfect 10. Her make-up was done in a very minimal way and her designer jewels by John Hardy were kept also to a minimum. I only wished I could catch a better glimpse of her gold strappy high heels ... hmmm .... I am sure the shoes are worthy of a photograph all on their own I suppose. (If only I knew who designed them! This is a style she repeatedly wears.)

Victoria Secret Angel Jasmine Tookes, at age 28 (she looks much younger in my opinion), gets it right for this red carpet extravaganza! What an American beauty!! I simply adore her!!!

Oscars 2015: Vanity Fair Party ~ Miranda Kerr

Miranda Kerr attended the 2015 Vanity Fair Oscar Party at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts on February 22, 2015 in Beverly Hills, California. She always looks smashing at glamorous, upscale events. She has immaculate taste and shows her style best when she is dressed for star-studded evening galas. This annual invitation-only star-studded event is the place to be seen for the most sought-after actors, models, entertainers, musicians, athletes, producers, directors and fashion designers.

The 31-year-old former Victoria’s Secret Angel stepped out in grand style wearing an elegant custom-made Emilio Pucci gown. Her sexy figure was showcased beautifully in this gown. She often accessorizes her evening looks adorned in sparkling diamonds. This night she kept with her usual "diamonds are a girl's best friend" tradition and selected a few of her favorite diamond pieces from her personal Lorraine Schwartz jewelry collection. I especially love the large diamond cluster earrings on her! Perfection. She completed her look wearing Jimmy Choo ankle strap heels and a Judith Leiber clutch keeping everything simple and refined. Clever choice to not wear a necklace and to leave her fingers free from rings. Yes, Miranda is divorced, single and ready to mingle!

From the photos that I have reviewed, she clearly stood out as one of the best dressed on the arrival "red" carpet.
