What the Stars will be Wearing on Sunday Night's Grammys

By Laura Medina

Mike Vensel's current collection.
If Manhattan's blistering cold and snow thunders are preventing you from glimpsing the coolest collections from the hottest designers.
Don't despair. This is what Awards Season is all about, your favorite celebrities and entertainment modeling the latest cutting-edge creations on the red carpet, all within the cozy confines of your tv/Ipad in your living room-with a warm mug of hot cocoa and a big bowl of popcorn.
This arriving Grammy Awards are going to showcase two of the hottest designers to emerge on the scene.
One is going to show during New York Fashion Week, Mike Vensel.
He took "The Black Swan" concept of the feathered tutu/mini skirt then stretch it into a classic but cozily sexy cocktail, shift, Little Black Dress downed in marabou feathers. Spring chick gone goth.
His halter maxi dresses drape and flows along a woman's curves. Something to pack for that quick trip to Santa Barbara or Miami. They come in solid black and nautical black and white stripes.

Another designer to keep your eyes out for is Miami-based Ema Savahl.

You have and will see her body-modeling thermal applique dresses and gowns at the Grammy.

This is not your run-of-the-mill acrylic paint. It is a special type of paint that allows the wearer's thermal heat loosens, tightens, and models along a person's contour. It is called Luminar. It pushes and holds where it is needed and loosens when you need to breathe and move.

E!'s Giuliana Rancic wore this Ema Savanhl gown to this recent SAG Awards.

Look beyond the surface and you saw an elegant construction of corset bras and support wear for security and shaping. This lovely gown is made from silk jersey nets, which figures predominantly in Ms. Savanhl's line.

Here's a game you all can play at home. While watching the Grammy's red carpet, can you spot which one of these three dresses on Sunday tonight's telecast?

The only clue offered is this...the actress who already picked the dress was recently voted "Best Dressed" at the SAG Awards.

Think, think, think....

More Grammy sneak peeks to come!
