Umm, it was 2009, as it says in the background... :wink:
Remember, 2010 was the black feathery Jasper Conran dress, and then the blue princess dress by Alberta Ferretti..if I got her name right.

Well, now we can try to imagine what she'll wear to the CBA in October! I noticed she started following Jenny Packham on Twitter. Don't know if that necessarily means anything, but you never know... Hey, maybe it was after she saw Kate's gorgeous dress.

True! But if she was on the front of the magazines in the US, I'm sure she was on them in the UK, too.

Here's the jewelry she was wearing (that we can hardly see, unfortunately): HAYLEY WESTENRA WEARS VIOLET DARKLING!
Multi Platinum Opera singer and Darkling Hayley Westenra was spotted wearing our 18K Rose Gold plated Heart, Chain and Pink Tourmaline Pave Bone necklace and Black Rhodium Plated star ring with Amethyst Micro Pave. We think these pieces go perfectly with Hayley's chic black wrap dress! All pieces available from www.violetdarkling.com

Thanks Richard! That ring is very pretty. I like it better than the necklace, in fact. I wish we could see that more clearly, too...

Hi all! Feeling rather pleased with myself as I've managed to ID Hayley's Classic Brit dress! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif It is by designer Catherine Deane and is called the 'Megan Long Dress'. Silk tulle drape back dress with cut outs and leather detailing with a leather strap belt. catherinedeane.com/product/megan-long-dress/Here are some photos. It has a lovely back, so I hope that photos from Hayley from all angles show up soon.

I don't remember if you ever found out the designer for this dress from her 18th birthday, but Sing just found some photos from that event, and it says who the designers were for her dress, shoes, and jewerly! So, the dress is by Elspeth Gibson. imagecollect.com/picture/hayley-westenra-elspeth-gibson-jimmy-choo-photo-2352771/fwro.jpgI found one dress in the Spring/Summer 2005 collection (#23) that looks sort of similar. The skirt does, anyway, but the cut of the top part is just sleeveless, not strapless, and it appears to have a lot of sparkly sequins on it. Just don't make yourself sick skimming through the collection. I hate those moving things on fashion designer websites! This was the worst one. I still feel some effects from it about 10 minutes later! And the shoes she was wearing were by Jimmy Choo! Remember her tweet last month, I think it was, about finding some Jimmy Choo shoes while cleaning house, or something? I think that was right before the CBA, if I'm not mistaken. And the jewelry is by Harrods. There were lots more photos from other events in the past, all ones I've seen before, but none of them say the designers except for this one outfit! Bummer! Then we could've found out who that sparkly blue dress was by! (page 5, I think). imagecollect.com/celebrities/hayley-westenra-pictures-27364/page-4

Hi Libby! Thanks for that info! It is such a pretty dress! I actually made a post about the dress a little while back. I also thought that the blue sequin dress was by Elspeth Gibson and was a bit disapointed when I couldn't find it! I have also found the designer of the white dress Hayley wore during a photoshoot for Paradiso - it is by Hayley's favourite store Reiss. It also comes in denim.

Ah, so it was a dress! You can't tell from that photo. I want to see her wearing it again, just so I can see the whole thing.
Going back to the sparkly pink dress... I was wondering maybe, since it was from 2005, and Hayley wore that sparkly gold one in 2006... maybe, she got it back then, too, but just didn't wear it until now. Or, would any stores be selling dresses from designers' older collections, or maybe it's a replica (even though it doesn't quite match any of the ones from that collection)?
Or maybe it is just a different designer who also made a sparkly pink dress. LOL
