Hello again! We continue our discussion of Emma Watson’s fashion sense, giving you our insights into the Vogue Italia photo shoot, the NYC Half-Blood Prince premiere outfit, her appearance on Jonathon Ross and many more of her fabulous clothes, with a bit of Cheryl Cole thrown in for good measure. Enjoy!

VOGUE ITALIA

JULIE: Seen Vogue Italia?

EMMA: Yes, kind of a fairytale Romanticism thing going on. Gorgeous clothes. I like the dress with the ruffles; it wouldn’t look out of place in the couture wedding gown montage in Sex and the City: The Movie.

JULIE: Yeah, the Italia shoot is gorgeous; I loved the one where she’s standing on the window.

EMMA: I have a picture up of her standing on the table in front of the window in a red dress. Is that the one?

JULIE: No, she’s in a green dress. A long, floaty number. She looks beautiful in that.

EMMA: Ah, I just saw it!

JULIE: You like?

EMMA: From the thumbnail it looks stunning… oh my god, she looks beautiful, like a Grecian goddess. That is a perfect photo in every way.

JULIE: Mark Seliger did that. He’s a genius.

EMMA: I like photographers who don’t just do a typical modelling shoot.

JULIE: The ones where they’re telling a story and not just getting a celebrity to stand in front of a background and grin.

EMMA: Or pout.

JULIE: To be honest, that’s why Vogue and Bazaar and the like are the best. Cosmo is good for a bit of ‘How to Care for Your Hair’ but if you want proper photo shoots by people who know what they’re doing then you should go to them.

EMMA: Definitely. Shame they’re so expensive. I always just stand in the shop and read them; shop assistants look at me with utter hatred.

JULIE: So do I; it’s a luxury I can only have once a month. And shop assistants look at everyone with utter hatred.

EMMA: Don’t they only come out once a month anyway?

JULIE: Yes, but you can’t have them all. Well, I can’t, anyway.

AND BACK TO PREMIERES…

EMMA: This was one dress I really liked: the white skirt and the leather halterneck top.

JULIE: For the Half-Blood Prince premiere in NYC? That was Proenza Schouler. They’re very good – big on having a different top and bottom. Lots of people are doing that at the moment; I see a lot of people who’ve sewn a skirt on a different top to make a dress.

EMMA: That’s a good idea if you can sew. Which I obviously can’t.

JULIE: Get a sewing machine!

EMMA: I’d get my hair caught in it or something. I really liked that one – different, but not in a crazy way. Again, without colour, though.

JULIE: As per.

EMMA: I do think the paler shades suit her, though; I really liked that beige Burberry she wore on Friday Night with Jonathon Ross. But then, I liked the style more than the colour.

JULIE: It was a bit… puffy.

EMMA: What, the Wossy one? It wasn’t that puffy. I thought it gave her a nice silhouette.

JULIE: It did, yeah. I think it was a standing-up dress, though, a bit like Cheryl Cole’s Vinyl record dress. It looked good standing, but looked bloody awful when she was sitting down.

EMMA: OH MY GOD! With the big chest-plate things? Terrible.

JULIE: Well, I liked it when she was standing up, but it looked ridiculous sitting down, as if she’d made it herself.

EMMA: I hated it from the start. You know how you see couture on the runway and it looks beautiful, but you know it’d look stupid to wear off the runway because it’s art? It’s like Cheryl Cole got that monstrosity straight off the runway without having it developed into ready-to-wear, so because it’s NOT on the runway it looks ridiculous.

JULIE: I feel Helena Bonham-Carter does the same, but she’s too awesome so she gets away with it.

EMMA: Yeah, it goes with her quirky, eclectic style, which Cheryl doesn’t have.

JULIE: WAGs tend not to be with the unique style so much! Having said that, I really love Chezza.

CONCLUSION!

EMMA: I feel we should wrap up with the famous flashing dress from the HBP premiere.

JULIE: Definitely.

EMMA: Which… to be honest, I didn’t like it.

JULIE: Really? I loved it. It did exactly what it was supposed to do: it made her look taller with a small waist. I thought it was beautiful.

EMMA: I think it was too old for her, and she’s got a small chest so that neckline was far too much for her. It’d be beautiful if you saw it on an older woman. But you’re right, it does make her figure look amazing.

JULIE: If it was on us, though, we’d have too much boob. I’d rather see a flat chest in that than Jordan busting out.

EMMA: Well, yeah, obviously that’d look awful in a very different way. But I think it makes her chest look masculine, especially in a frontal picture.

JULIE: I have to disagree.

EMMA: What about the fact that she later nearly flashed her boob after already having flashed her knickers?! Surely that proves it was too low. Was it Burberry, by the way?

JULIE: Ossie Clark. Vintage.

Watson Obsession

SO WE START OFF WITH EMMA WATSON’S GOLD OUTFIT THAT WAS DESIGNED ESPECIALLY FOR HER BY CHRISTOPHER BAILEY, WHICH SHE WORE TO LONDON FASHION WEEK: 
(BTW I, Julie, love love LOVE Emma Watson. Yes I am a proud Watsonphile. I think it started out as a jealousy because she had the life I wanted but now it has turned into a full on, make my friends barmy, obsession. So expect to see the darling Miss Watson appear on this blog a lot. I can’t help it. I’m sorry.)
[picapp src=”9/9/c/d/London_Fashion_Week_2404.JPG?adImageId=7606779&imageId=6729472″ width=”234″ height=”391″ /]

EMMA: I feel that dress doesn’t suit Emma, I’ve not seen a full body shot of her in it before.

JULIE: She looked awesome; I loved it. Plus Chris Bailey designed it just for her.

EMMA: It’s too short for her and cuts her legs off at a funny point. It makes them look odd.

JULIE: It’s a little bit short but it’s cute. I’m glad she wore colour seeing as normally it’s all black and blue, which is like me but I’m not on the red carpet.

EMMA: I think it might be the way she’s standing as well. And yeah, I know, it’s nice to see her in a bit of colour. She used to wear a lot of colour when she was younger; what happened?

JULIE: I know! Sad times.

(SPEAKING OF COLOUR, WATSON WORE A PURPLE VINTAGE DRESS TO THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN PREMIERE IN LONDON’S LEICESTER SQUARE, A BLUE CHANEL NUMBER FOR ORDER OF THE PHOENIX IN LONDON AND A BLUE AND GOLD CHANEL DRESS IN PARIS.)

[picapp src=”0/9/d/9/UK_Harry_Potter_0c79.jpg?adImageId=7609644&imageId=3170748″ width=”234″ height=”417″ /]

EMMA: I still love that dress she wore to the PoA premiere; it was so haphazard and awesome.

JULIE: I know, so appropriate for her age. I mean, I wouldn’t wear it now.

EMMA: My favourite’s still the OotP one in London:
[picapp align=”none” wrap=”false” link=”term=emma+watson&iid=1304448″ src=”1/3/a/5/Harry_Potter_And_139c.jpg?adImageId=7655258&imageId=1304448″ width=”380″ height=”570″ /]
JULIE: I love the way she looked at the Paris OotP, but then her hair was gorgeous!
[picapp align=”none” wrap=”false” link=”term=emma+watson+paris&iid=1162242″ src=”1/8/7/2/c0.jpg?adImageId=7655182&imageId=1162242″ width=”295″ height=”594″ /]

EMMA: Ah, the blue and gold Chanel.

JULIE: Facially, I think she looked the best there; her hair and face were amazing.

EMMA: Yeah, that one’s really nice, one of my favourites, but I still really like the one we saw her in at the London one.

 MANY JOURNALISTS REPORTING ON EMMA WATSON HAVE COMMENTED ON THE CHANGE WE’VE SEEN IN HER SINCE SHE FIRST ARRIVED ON THE BIG SCREEN, ONE OF THE BIGGEST CHANGES BEING HER GRADUAL DESCENT INTO THE WORLD OF FASHION, GOING TO MANY FASHION EVENTS INCLUDING AWARDS, PARTIES AND FASHION WEEK.

JULIE: And I loved the BAFTA pre-party Chanel one, especially the Lanvin necklace.

EMMA: She doesn’t change her hair a lot to be honest, except to put it up and I don’t really like it like that. The picture just came up and yeah, she looks lovely; her make-up’s perfect.

JULIE: The actual BAFTA hair was good and her hair at the Chanel 2007 show was amazing! The whole look was so good.

EMMA: The leather one? You would love that. It looked awful.

JULIE: No, it doesn’t!

EMMA: I like her make-up, though.

JULIE: It’s awesome.

EMMA: It’s so completely different to how she normally dresses; it looks wrong. 

EMMA’S FORAY INTO FASHION INEVITABLY HAD HER DOING PHOTO-SHOOTS.  LIKE TATLER:

EMMA: What was the one where in one of them she had that white jumpsuit on and was leaning against a wall?
JULIE: Tatler, 2007.

EMMA: I liked that.

JULIE: Yeah, she looked older than usual.

EMMA: I really liked the lighting in those photos, and the white dress.

JULIE: The Chanel one on the cover? LOVED that one. I lusted after it for a very long time.

EMMA: I’m not sure if it was Chanel but it does look like it. It’s the one with the deep v-neck – or maybe it’s a wraparound – and she’s got her arms over her head.

JULIE: I’m pretty sure it was Chanel.

EMMA: Her hair looked lush in that photo shoot too, and I liked the grey and white shift with the pockets; I thought that was very her.

JULIE: The see-through one?

EMMA: The grey bit is see-through.

JULIE: I think I know which one you’re talking about and it was gorgeous.

EMMA: I don’t think it’d suit us though because of our figures.

JULIE: Fashion does tend to be made for smaller-chested ladies.

EMMA: Her hair is darker than usual here, right?  She looks really sophisticated.  I swear it’s not normally that dark, even in the movies.

JULIE: She dyed it brown – very brown.

EMMA: Very, very brown!  It suits her, but I love her blonde.

JULIE: It looked good though.  A lot of people thought it was a bit too much but I thought, Why not?  She looked older than her years but in a good way, not in the Miley Cyrus way.

EMMA: Miley Cyrus’ hair is amazing!  What are you talking about?!

JULIE: It is amazing, but she’s quite blatantly trying to be older than she is.  What sixteen-year-old pole-dances onstage?!

EMMA: Well, yeah, very true.  How old is she now?

JULIE: Sixteen.

EMMA: Still?!  She looks crazily older.

JULIE: EXACTLY!

EMMA: It upsets me that I really want to look like a sixteen-year-old.

JULIE: You do look like a sixteen-year-old.
