Selena Gomez Gives Collars A New Spin
When it comes to her sartorial choices, Selena Gomez rarely shies away from a bold move, even nailing airport style like it's her job. And at the City of Hope 2015 Spirit of Life Gala on Nov. 5, she did it again. Selena Gomez's attached collar dress pretty much stole the entire show, and gave the collar/turtleneck look a whole new meaning. Excuse me while I find a way to rock this style tomorrow.
From jumpsuits to matching separates to mini dresses to her gorgeous red carpet gowns, there seems to be nothing Gomez won't take for a spin. Remember her white cutout gown at the "China: Through The Looking Glass" Costume Institute Benefit Gala? I certainly do. She's always got a slightly editorial edge to all of her looks, and I'm digging it.
At the Gala, Gomez rocked a white mini Ulyana Sergeenko dress with a deep V neck and attached collar. Hello, gorgeous. There's something almost '70s about her look, especially in the way that she paired it with strappy Charlotte Olympia heels and David Webb jewelry. I love, love, love the bell sleeves and asymmetrical buttons, too. As for her hair and makeup, Gomez went with an up-do with a middle part and a bold, red lip. She nailed it, y'all.
While attached collars like this one are a bit hard to find in my experience, fear not: You can always use a collar or choker to achieve a similar effect. Below you will find some dress and jumpsuit options as well as cuffs that'll allow you to play with Gomez's gorgeous look.
1. The Culotte Jumpsuit
Topshop V-Neck Culotte Jumpsuit, $115, shop.nordstrom.com
Gomez is also a fan of the double strap mule, so this look is killing two birds with one stone.
2. The Black Version
Truly You Premium Beaded Plunge Front Mini Dress, $107.49, asos.com
I love the beaded details on this dress, and paired with a cold collar, this would be divine.
3. This Midi Jumpsuit
BCBGeneration Georgette Jumpsuit, $128, shop.nordstrom.com
Not only does this jumpsuit have a seriously deep V, but the midi length makes it ultra cool as well.
4. Full Length Jumpsuit
Wide Leg Cape Jumpsuit, $59.50, ashleystewart.com
For those of you who easily get cold (me) this one's for you. Plus, the cape detail in the back is amazing.
5. The Classic Collar
Catherine Page Gold Collar, $36, showmeyourmumu.com
This model's got the right idea. She's wearing it with a white top!
6. This Major Piece Of Hardware
Hoot And Collar Necklace, $25, nastygal.com
This has got to be one of the coolest structured collar necklaces I've ever seen.
7. A White Leather Choker
White Leather Plain Choker, $15.47, etsy.com
Give a nod to the '90s and to Gomez's look with this plain white choker.
So while you may not be able to get her exact look, these options are pretty close. Or, if you're a DIY-er, find a fabric store, pick out some lace, and make a collar yourself. It'll definitely be your favorite statement piece. Trust me.
