Rihanna frills us at Glamour Awards

So the Glamour Women of the Year Awards ceremony was on Monday night.

We could (and probably will in a later post) go on and on about the star power at the event - three Beatles wives, President Obama shouting out via video, Maya Angelou, Bill Clinton and Serena Williams.

But for now, we have just this to say.




WE.

DRESS!!!


Dammit man! Ri-ri hit it for six with this dress... if you're a regular Islandista reader, you know the sharp folds and angles on the bodice and skirt would have us dotish.


Oh, origami folds, why do you have us in your thrall?

Just because we love it

Looking through some of the previous posts here on Islandista, you may have picked up that one of our favourite current trends is origami folds in clothing.

So with that said, there is no further point to this post than to show you the fabulous black and white dress worn by Oscar nominee Taraji P. Henson at the Producer's Guild Awards.

Even though Taraji isn't an islandista, we heart her and this dress.

Gorgeous. Love the little splash of red she introduces with the clutch bag too. Black, white and red is one of the hottest colour combinations.
