50s Fashion Deserves An Award...

I don't like to make a regular habit out of showcasing celebrity outfits (in the big scheme of things, what they are wearing is of minor importance ;), but every once in a while I run across an outfit that I like so much that I think it's worth sharing.

My newest Polyvore collage is based off of the (IMHO) feminine and gorgeous ensemble that Marcia Cross wore to the recent Emmy Awards. It's made by Elie Saab and is just the epitome of 1950s elegance. This might not be everyone's idea of a fantastic evening gown, but the lovely pink tulle, silk flowers and vintage flair just grabbed my inner girly-girl. And while I don't consider strapless gowns to be very modest, it made me grin to see someone else with a "poky" collarbone. :)

I just adore this look (really Grace Kelly-ish! :). What do you think?
