Kim Raver chooses Isabella Oliver dress for polo event

In an earlier post on CBB, we showed you Debra Messing and pregnant actress Kim Raver at the 2007 Mercedes-Benz Polo Challenge at JetOne Jets Field. When it came time for Kim to dress for the event, she looked no further than maternity designer Isabella Oliver, and her ‘absolutely favorite’ piece from the collection — the ruched tank dress (on sale for $112.50) in black. With side ruching that can accommodate you from trimester to trimester, and built-in support so you can go bra-less if you choose, the dress is extremely versatile.

Isabella Oliver is named after the two first children, Isabella and Oliver, born (just weeks apart!) to creators Vanessa Knox-Brien and Baukjen de Swaan Arons. Since then — with five pregnancies between them — Vanessa and Baukjen only sell clothes they have "designed, created, worn and fallen in love with themselves." Other celebrity moms and moms-to-be who wear the line include Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon, Marcia Cross, Heidi Klum and Bryce Dallas Howard.

Kim is expecting her second child this fall.

Debra Messing's separation anxiety

Debra Messing‘s six-part mini-series The Starter Wife was a labor of love that challenged her in more ways than one. The project found Debra and her son Roman, 3, in Australia for four months and away from her husband, Daniel Zelman, for the first time in all of the 17 years that they have been together. She tells The View on Thursday that being a temporary single parent and apart from her husband for so long was the "hardest thing I’ve ever had to do."

You know, essentially be a single mom for four months in a foreign country, working all the time. Your first priority is your child. He was on the set with me every single day. We saw kangaroos together and wombats.

Since Roman is her top priority, Debra doesn’t have enough hours in the day to get prim and proper like her Starter Wife alter ego Molly Kagan.
