SAVED BY FASHION MACGYVER

Posted Mar 06 2011 @ 02:34 PM

Trying out two lacy looks overseas, Isla Fisher crossed the pond to promote her new animated flick Rango on February 20 in Berlin, Germany. Isla first arrived at the Berlin premiere in a fitted all-over lace dress by Elise Øverland (get the look with Luc by Lucy's Back Zipper Lace Dress in Military Green) and a pair of cocoa suede pumps. Isla added a little edge to the lacy look with a crimson buckle bracelet (try adding a pop of color that will work with many looks like Amrita Singh's East End Bracelet in Multi Color) and a cocktail ring on her middle finger, wearing her gorgeous red tresses in full cascading waves. The following day Isla turned up in London at a photocall with co-star Abigail Breslin, pairing a nude strapless Dolce & Gabbana dress with black lace overlay (like Sue Wong's Satin Applique Strapless Sheath in Black/Nude) with a black Vanessa Bruno jacket (lace lovers try Bailey 44's Queen Cardigan in Black) and a pair of black pumps. I think her shoes could have been more exciting, but otherwise I think both looks suit her figure and the occasion. Thoughts? Isla was spotted catching a flight out of Heathrow Airport in London the next day, returning to LA just in time for the Oscars. Isla appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon this week, where she shared a hilarious story about her fashion malfunction at the Vanity Fair after-party. After bumping into Larry David, the producer gave her a "firm, hard hug" that snapped her dress strap, leaving her exposed! Luckily she was in good company: "But only at the Vanity Fair party, the crowds parted, and there appeared my fashion angel in the name of Tom Ford, who had on him a cufflink, a wire coat hanger and a candlestick. He's like a fashion 'MacGyver'! He MacGyvered my strap back on, and I had a great night!" What a lucky break! Can't wait to see this encounter work its way into an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm next season!
