Open your closet door. Do the contents remind you of a trip to the zoo? With leopard print, faux-fur and leather garments, fashionistas have a lot to thank the animal kingdom for.
The latest trend in animal-inspired fashion is the feathered skirt. Blake Lively, Lea Michelle, Solange Knowles and more celebrities have flocked to the elaborate look of a full, feathered skirt. Not only is it extremely flattering, the feathered skirt redefines red carpet fashion. Forget the boring empire waist gown, the feathered skirt is a fun way for fashionistas to declare that they've arrived … in serious style.
Blake Lively (bottom right), star of Gossip Girl is no stranger to showing up in style. Shes been on every best dressed list ever since i can remember. She arrived and turned heads at the premiere of Where the Wild Things Are in a stunning short corseted Marchesa dress with a full black feathered skirt.
Actress, Lea Michele (top left) has a lot to smile about. In the past year, she's gone from not so famous Broadway star, to a household name and is adored by many real-life “gleeks”. The actress and singer made plenty of best dressed lists after she wore a one-shouldered navy Romona Keveza dress with skirt covered in feathers to last year's Grammy awards, and ever since, shes been rocking the red carpet in fabulous fashions.
