Academy Awards Couture Special...on TV Guide Network!!!

In anticipation of Hollywood's biggest night, TV Guide Network will celebrate the Academy Awards by looking back at the legendary fashions worn by film stars from the 1950s to today.

Nick Verreos joins TV Guide Network's "Academy Awards: Iconic Stars, Legendary Fashions" TV Special

I was invited to join an illustrious panel of experts, including the AMAZING and legendary Bob Mackie, to speak on Oscars Fashions for TV Guide's very special program: Academy Awards: Iconic Stars, Legendary Fashions.

Bob Mackie

This special TV program will be a special insight on Oscars Fashion through the years--and through the eyes of Fashion Designers (like myself and Bob Mackie), hair experts, fashion editors and stylists. The one-hour special will also highlight classic style icons Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly and modern day trend-setters Nicole Kidman and Angelina Jolie.

Halle Berry at the 74th Annual Academy Awards

You know we'll talk about the gorgeous Halle Berry in that Elie Saab gown (No one had heard of this Lebanese Designer until then! Well, no one outside of the LA-NY-Paris-Beirut Fashionista circles!).

And of course, the photo of Cher and THAT iconic Bob Mackie creation might make a "special appearance" in the show. If you LOVE Fashion, are a fan of the Red Carpet and the Academy Awards...well, this is THE SHOW for you!

What: Academy Awards: Iconic Stars, Legendary Fashions
