Front Row Report • The Atelier Versace Fall 2012 Fashion Show

The Atelier Versace Fall 2012 fashion show was held in the Ritz-Carlton in Paris on Sunday. Of course, the front row was packed with A-listers who were all decked out in Versace, apart from Anna Wintour and her daughter Bee Shaffer.

Anna Wintour cast her critical look on the runway on Sunday. She and her daugther matched in style. Anna wore a blue, white and red geometrical-printed skirt-suit. She paired a Prada Fall 2012 long-sleeve jacket with matching skirt. She styled her look with white (yes white) Manolo Blahnik sandals, which she pulled off perfectly with that print. Her signature bob completed the look. Bee looked gorgeous in a Peter Pilotto Resort 2013 dress, complementing her mom's ensemble. Her sleeveless graphic-printed mini was styled with simple nude sandals. A straight glossy hairstyle, a red pedicure and matching lip shade provided the finishing touches for Bee's look.

Lea Michele attended the show with her beau, looking radiant in a Versace Spring 2012 frock. The Glee-actress wore a sleeveless orange dress with grey insets on the hips. Lea styled her look with complementing grey suede Versace pumps and a black Versace clutch. A sleek straight hairstyle, smoky eyes and a glossy pout completed the look.

Fan Bingbing was also spotted at the show. The Asian actress rocked a yellow Versace Fall 2012 dress. The short-sleeved mini with sparkly silver panel was paired with black platform heels by Versace and a black Versace shoulder bag and cat-eye shades. Shiny cascading side-swept curls and a nude lip shade wrapped up Fan's look.

Elizabeth Banks also joined in on the fun during the Paris Couture Fashion Week. The actress wore a gorgeous light grey dress with sparkly insets around the neckline. Elizabeth styled her sleeveless mini with silver pointed-toe Versace pumps and a metallic silver clutch. Cat-eye make-up, pink lippie and a teased updo wrapped up the look.

Christina Hendricks also sat front row during the show. The Mad Men-actress wore a sparkly custom Atelier Versace Spring 2012 mini dress. It was a pity that Christina wore a black blazer over her leather beaded dress. She accessorized with silver strappy sandals and a gold clutch. Frizzy curls, kohl-rimmed eyes and a pink pout finished the look. I can't say I'm loving this look, without the blazer it could have worked.

M.I.A. also attended the show. The rap-singer wore a vintage Gianni Versace look. She paired gold-printed leggings with a gold-printed top and a cropped white leather jacket with geold embroideries. M.I.A. accessorized with a silver Versace clutch, pointed-toe Versace pumps and gold statement jewels. A curly hairstyle and a rich red lip shade completed the look.

Milla Jovovich looked sexy in a Versace Fall 2012 dress. The black dress with cut-outs trailing the back was adorned in shiny studs. Black heels and a black clutch styled the look. Simple statement jewels, a side-swept hairdo and a pink lip shade concluded the look.
