Style Icon: Actor Allison Williams

Allison Williams is an American sweetheart and possesses one of those rare, timelessly beautiful faces and an effortless style that runs the gamut from cute cocktail dresses to long flowy gowns. Given her stellar sartorial choices during an active awards season, Allison is hands down this week’s style icon for being so fashionably high on our radar.



Allison is known for her endearing role as Marnie in Girls, ridiculously good looks and a smile to die for but, at the same time, her fabulous fashion sense shouldn’t be overlooked. Williams is the ultimate girl-next-door fashion icon, wearing cute outfits that every girl would love to see themselves in. She started getting noticed when her hit show Girls aired. Ever since then, Allison, favouring fitted silhouettes, luscious hair and pieces with varying degrees of pretty, has proved herself to be quite a style standout, especially amongst her co-stars.



Fans have created many blogs dedicated to how to achieve her simple yet elegant style. She alternates between long gowns, and short and sassy mini dresses, keeping glamour and simplicity hovered together.  Williams does not shy away from colour. She frequently wears bold colours like hot pink, cobalt blue, and emerald green, among others. Black happens to be a particular favourite and she pulls of this timeless colour flawlessly. She has been praised by fashionistas all around for her versatile and spot on style, especially on the red carpet.
