Cosmic Couture

Celebrities are going celestial this season with meteor showers of metallic embellishments (keep reading to see the details close up). My favorite so far is Molly Sims' girlie Bill Blass frock. The sprinkled sequins, beads and paillettes give a softer feel than, say, the grommets on Joy Bryant's Missoni jumpsuit. But if you want an edgier cosmic look, you can find some studded options by clicking through the gallery below. 

Just remember not to go overboard when channeling the solar system. Catherine Zeta-Jones' dramatic burst of gold and silver distracts from what should be the brightest star of all: her gorgeous face.
