Narciso Rodriguez

Charlize Theron is one of my red carpet icons and she never fails to impress – on and off the red carpet. Last year Charlize made an appearance on David Letterman looking sultry in a black body-con dress by Narciso Rodriguez. The dress may have looked simple from the front, but Charlize’s backview revealed stunning criss-cross details. Love this look!

Eight Sixty “Body Con” Cutout Knit Dress

UPDATE (02/23/2010): Here’s another great Narciso Rodriguez alternative by Eight Sixty.

Walter “Kristin” Little Black Dress

This Narciso Rodriguez LBD look-a-like by Walter will give you an almost identical silhouette and the same bondage effect though this dress is shorter than the original. Kristin Cavallari has been spotted wearing this dress to a fashion show a few days ago, so it can’t be too bad, right? Plus, it costs under $100 which is a steal considering you’d have to pay aproxx. $2k for the original.

Back in November 2008, Rachel Weisz attended the MoMa Film Benefit Gala Honoring Baz Luhrmann in New York looking absolutely fantastic in a coral Narciso Rodriguez Spring 2009 dress which had his black trademark banding strips going all over it.
