Sartorial Compass: Maggie Gyllenhaal, Print Perfection

Maggie G is obviously a fan of print, take her red carpet gowns from here and here, but in today's post you'll see how she wears print in everyday outfits.  

Black blazer, she loves this classic topper.
Dries for days, he's the King of pattern and she is his queen.

On the left she's wearing Proenza Schouler, I love that it probably felt like pajama's to wear but looks really gorgeous at the same time.  I'm all about pajama fashion.  The fur in the center is a favorite look, simple, but  it makes a statement.

I absolutely love that she is fearless about prints, and hope that it never changes.  Just like all of the women I have chosen as Sartorial Compass' she knows what she likes and whether the public likes it or not, she is sticking to her look.  Because seriously, what is the purpose of fashion and style if you yourself don't love what you put on?

Sartorial Compass: Maggie Gylenhaal, Black + Blue

Maggie is a fearless advocate of prints one day and a lover of minimalist design in deep hues another. She has truly stolen my heart all over again during my search for these photos. 
  
Black Vionnet dress with white peek-a-boo.
Any smart girl loves a pop of red.

I love this smoky blue, and when you look closely you see a very faint pattern in the fabric.  

Two printed gowns during one awards season?  I like how this lady thinks.
Navy + Black = Perfection.
I may be the only person in the world that liked this dress on her at the Met Gala in 2010, but I can't help loving everything about it.  The dress is from one of the best Louis Vuitton collections in my recent memory, and I love the understated pattern and the heavy black straps.
