New York Fashion Week may be all but memory at this point but Madrid Fashion Week has only just begun!
Kicking off the fashion festivities,actress Gwyneth Paltrow attendsed the Adolfo Dominguez Spring/Summer 2010 runway show at Pasarela Cibeles Madrid, Spain today (September 18).
Gwyneth has long been an admirer of fashion and the actress called up a super stylish pal to help offer fans of her newsletter, GOOP, tips for what to wear for work and play.
Elizabeth Saltzman, a Fashion Editor and Contributing Editor at Vanity Fair magazine, whom Gwyneth called “one of the best dressed girls I know,” suggests:
Lanvin is very in. Alber Elbaz, the artistic director for the group, has created a fabulous “black velvet, sleeveless, floor length, slightingly draped, belted dress.”
Other designers super-hot this season? Bottega Venetta and Michelle Obama favorite Derek Lam.
But since most people can’t afford high-fashion prices, Elizabeth suggests that people can get similar looks at Topshop, which for a while now, has been available stateside.
Also hot? “Lace and layering” a la Stella McCartney and a “shiny” look courtesy of Balmain.
For a fashion that lasts, Elizabeth recommends collections from Burberry, Prada and YSL.
Meanwhile Erdem ad Rodarte are, “individuals in a class all their own,” Elizabeth noted.
And in general, “leather” and “biker” looks are very, very in.
When it comes to accessories, Elizabeth recommends “motorcycle boots and kick a** heels.”

am i the only one who thinks fishstick’s hair looks like crap when it’s stick straight?
No you are not. It totally looks like crap.
Also, I just ended my “Goop” newsletter emails. (yea, it took me this long)
I tried to give her a chance…. but they were just so pretentious and
obnoxious. $250 for an organic T shirt???!! Get in the real world Gwynnie.
She should not be giving fashion advice because she looks like doo. Clashy doo. A velvet grecco roman nightmare with blue tights paired with black shoes? Really gwyneth? C’mon you used to be better than that.
I absolutely love Madrid. That city is the bomb!! The Spaniards who live there have such great style. I can’t wait to go back.
Oh, about Gwyneth…I’m not a fan of her stick straight hair either. It’s better when it’s got some body to it.
^ ditto. I was going to comment on the same. She looks so much better and her hair looks much thicker when it’s long. This is a short version of the Maniston. Enuff said.
