Wilhelmina Slater
The latest show news on the block? In light of the economic situation, Ugly Betty will be scaling down spending in the wardrobe department come Season 4.
According to Coco Perez, the crew is “being mindful of budget and waiting for markdowns,” especially on the notoriously pampered Wilhelmina Slater’s attire.
A clutch fit for the queen bee at Mode? Wilhelmina will tell you – it’s this precious Patent Kona Clutch.
Featuring Italian patent leather and bengaline lining, this luxe handbag opens with an hexagonal frame and stores all the essentials for an on-the-go yet fashionable day or outrageous night. Click here to make it yours!

Wilhelmina Slater was certainly in her finest fashion form in the “Rabbit Test” episode of Ugly Betty, donning extravagant gowns and designer shoes left and right. One particularly wearable find was this bright orange shirt dress with billowing, rolled up sleeves, by this episode’s designer darling, Halston.
As much as we would like to show up to the office in Brian Atwood thigh-high purple suede boots, a fishnet bodysuit, and jaunty sequin beret, we wouldn’t necessarily pick the same accessories as Wilhelmina did. Good thing the dress is a knock-out all on it’s own.

On last night’s Ugly Betty, ‘A Mother of a Problem,’ several of you asked us about Wilhemina‘s black dress with fuschia lining. We’re happy to report we’ve found it for you – It’s a stunning Alexander McQueen dress, and Wilhelmina accentuates it with hot-pink Stuart Weitzmans. Even in an episode about cutting back, Wili’s all about high-end, eh? Buy the dress here, and get all the looks from Ugly Betty 318 here.

Tomorrow night on Ugly Betty, we’re mostly going to be looking down. At Wilhelmina’s shoes, of course. While we’re always a fan of Willie’s fashions on Ugly Betty, on ‘A Mother of a Problem’ we’re definitely coveting these red platform slingbacks – the Stuart Weitzman ‘Wicky.’ (We also love that the accompanying storyline is “Wilhelmina’s snacks get downsized” – Ha!) First the shoes:
Then, the details:
More Ugly Betty to come on SeenON! Stay tuned.
Krizia from www.myBeautyMatch.com on Ugly Betty’s season finale!
Did you watch the softball episode on Ugly Betty’s season finale last night? It was pure gold!
I mean Naomi Campbell whipping out a mobile phone and everyone around her ducking (given her alleged reputation for using a mobile phone as a weapon)? What about the baseball-couture? The British bad-girl supermodel was sporting short-shorts, be-jewelled belt, bright red tights and high heal platform sneakers! It was so bad that it was actually good.
It goes without saying that all teammates on the Mode side and the competitor’s side (in this case Elle magazine) were wearing full on makeup and perfectly coiffed hair during their softball game.
Talking about makeup, I could not get my eyes off of Vanessa Williams‘ character Wilhelmina Slater (aka Wilhel-meaner by her assistant Marc). It’s true that Vanessa Williams is outstandingly gorgeous, but the makeup she was wearing just made her already beautiful blue eyes stand out even more.
Not only was Wilhelmina wearing perfect makeup, she was also wearing many of the spring-summer 2008 trends.
On last night’s episode, we saw Wilhelmina with thick black eyeliner and red lips! It’s classic and yet it’s bold.
If you noticed Wilhelmina wore the same makeup with three different outfits and it worked every time: her white suit which she was sporting with a beautiful gold and turquoise necklace, her gold lame dress and her white and orange softball outfit.
Wilhelmina’s classic makeup combined with her caramel bob cut and those perfect red nails screamed “I’m in charge and don’t even think of messing with me!”
Most of us might not dare to wear so much black eyeliner and then top it up with bold red lips. Another way of wearing this trend is to soften the lips. If you noticed Rebecca Romijn’s Alexis Meade character was also wearing thick black eyeliner, but her lips wear stained with a soft neutral shade that still gave her color without the drama of red lips.
If you want to use either of those looks for your summer events, choose the one that you are most comfortable with … for most of us it would be to play off stronger eyes against softer lips or vice versa … strong bold red lips with very soft eyes.
