Who has the power to turn a simple beaded dress into a viral craze for global fashion? New York’s hottest fashionista, Blake Lively, who rocked the look at Fashion Week and inspired other famous fashionistas to adopt tribal styles.
From its unique bright orange fringe to its beading and unique patterns, Blake Lively's dress exudes classic simplicity. Weeks later, Diane Kruger wore a similar tribal-inspired gown at the red carpet premiere of her film Unknown at the Berlin International Film Festival.
According to FTV.com and New York Girl Style, this is the hottest look from this year’s red carpet styles. (Never mind that these patterns are extremely common in Africa.)
