Eric Daman rocking Gossip Girl Season 4

Gossip Girl Season Four, my guilty pleasure has been absolutely fantastic in terms of fashion eye-candy! Eric Daman has got his mojo back. Episode 3 ('The Undergraduates') was particularly spectacular with one utterly fabulous outfit after another. Here are some of my faves...

New character Juliet is rocking an exquisite tight & tailored wardrobe. This grey wool zippered McQueen is to die for. Adore that cut - I love a shift dress. Victoria Beckham, Roland Mouret, Marc Jacobs and McQueen cut them so well. VB should be proud to be in that category!

Am in love with this Yigal Azrouel dress with it’s immaculate contours and sexy cut out back, very Victoria Beckham-esque. And with denim Dolce & Gabbana pumps – amazing!

Speaking of VB, Gossip Girl use her designs a lot and this creamy camel drapey dress from Fall 2010 is stunning.

Serena in a billowing Jenny Packham dress strides into the DVF Fashion's night Out event echoing Christy, Cindy, Noami and Linda at the height of the 90's, storming Versace's runway to 'Freedom' in 1991 in full Amazon glory. This scene is shot at DVF's store in the Meatpacking District, an amazing space. The bold print dress, which almost looks like zebra, with a slash of sequined blue belt & neckline looks amazing on Blake Lively's killer curves.

Blair at the same event in iridescent pewter Valentino dress.

I love leopard. I love colour. I love sequins. So how cute are these Betsey Johnson dresses on Blair's minions?!

So pretty, fashion confection. I'm looking forward to what ewhat Eric has in store for the rest of the season! XOXO

I am a big Gossip Girl fan. Whilst Season Three is going a bit awry storyline wise, and I'm over Little J's ridiculous ratty over bleached extensioned contrived rock chick look - I continue to adore Serena's wardrobe! Blair is working her own look, the faaaaar too stitched-up preppie crossed with Audrey Hepburn, which belies her little vixen character. And headbands - no. Leave them to girls under 5 please - or Paris Hilton.

S has the most covetable wardrobe, which is always consistent & in step with her character. For down time casual, the waist coat/jeans/boots look paired with that amazing Palomino mane is tousled chic.

Now that her character's left college, I'm missing the stylised private school uniform look - white shirt, tie & mini kilt paired with fabulous scarves and jewellery. However, the new more sophisticated look & designer dresses are to die for. For events like galas at the Met, the polo & debutante weddings, she is always poured into a designer gown that she wears with confidence, oozing sex - but not trash. Confidence is the #1 BEST accessory for a sexy dress - any sign of nerves - (i.e. head down, hunched shoulders, eyes to the floor, or worse - shrouding the outfit with a cardigan!!) - and the whole outfit is ruined.

GG Costumier Eric Daman explains his inspiration for Serena - which funnily enough, echoes my favourite look... "For Serena, she's very sexy and the sort of inspiration is Kate Moss. It's about being tousled, putting anything on and looking fabulous."
