Red Carpet: Gucci.

Creative director Frida Giannini made a rare trip to the Big Apple to host a duo of parties, which were attended by Gucci-clad celebs including Beyoncé, Blake Lively, and Kate Mara.

On Tuesday, Giannini and co. feted Chime for Change, a charity founded by Giannini, Beyoncé, and Salma Hayek Pinault. Blake Lively showed her support in a mod mustardFall ’14 Gucci frock with a leather-lined keyhole cutout down the front. Not to be outdone, Queen Bey looked flawless in a one-of-a-kind plunging white Gucci jumpsuit. The following evening, Kate Mara joined the fashion crowd in celebratingGucci’s long-anticipated cosmetics launch. She chose a burgundy A-line number with a leather bodice from the Fall ’14 runway for the affair.

In London on Tuesday, stars turned out for Glamour‘s Women of the Year Awards. After making a splash on the red carpet, Naomi Campbell, Taylor Schilling, and Sarah Hyland snagged trophies. Schilling, who took home the Editor’s Special Award, and Hyland, who earned the Comedy Actress accolade, both opted for shimmery looks. Schilling went for Peter Pilotto’s plunging silver-sequined Fall ’14 dress, while Hyland opted for a sparkling Gucci Resort ’14 shift. Campbell, the TV Personality Award winner, was the most memorable in a red-and-black Alexander McQueen Spring ’14 feathered dress.

Ladies check out the latest piece of neck candy by Proenza Schouler.

Proenza Schouler’s Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez has been working on a small collection of extremely limited costume pieces in fluorescent colors and chunky shapes.

 For their Resort ‘12 collection, which they designers describe as an exploration of craft and late sixties West Coast culture, they took the idea one step further, collaborating with the art jewelry line Alex & Lee, a staple of San Francisco’s crafts scene in the sixties and seventies.

"Their line is very much about craftsmanship and layers and I felt a certain kinship with them as artists because that is the core of what the Alex & Lee brand is known for,” Brooks says.

“Our jewelry is made through a process of multiple layers and complex techniques and I saw very clearly that Jack and Lazaro have the same design approach in their line.”

The Resort pieces, like the Iguana Pup necklace (below) and Crystal Candy necklace (above) each retail for $1,500 and will be available at Toronto’s The Room in December. (The Crystal Candy necklace will also be sold at 4510 in Dallas.)

 It offers a taste of what the designers promise will be a larger, independent collection to come. “The collaboration got us excited about jewelry and got us thinking about what Proenza Schouler jewelry would look like if we did it on our own,” they say.

 “We’ve been sort of working on ideas since the collaboration and as soon as we feel it is ready, we will release our own collection of pieces.”
