It may not be the end of the year, or in anticipation for the next awards event, but let’s be honest, we really don’t need an excuse to put together a list of red carpet award dresses.
This year an abundance of A-listers have turned up to celebrate key red carpet award events including the BAFTAs, Oscars, Golden Globes and of course the Grammys. Each have chosen a frock, which they hope sets them apart from the rest, and while many did that, there, in our eyes can only be a top ten.
First up in our top ten is Angelina Jolie who looked stunning in a green sleeved Versace dress at the Golden Globes. Also sporting a best dress at this event was Christina Hendricks who showed off those enviable curves in a red frock.
Over at the Oscars, we had three ladies who really wowed. First up was Michelle Williams who went for a white dress with on trend beading and capped sleeves. She’s followed here by Helena Bonham Carter for her sheer eccentric black outfit, which she teamed up with glasses. Also at this awards event is the lovely Natalie Portman who showed off her baby bump in a cute scoop neck purple frock.
Rihanna’s white and sheer Jean Paul Gaultier frock at the Grammys also gets a mention, while Jessie J’s BRIT playsuit also comes in top here.
Emma Watson’s one shoulder lace frock at the BAFTAs gets in too as does Amy Adam’s gold strappy number. Read the rest of this entry »
We’re head over heels over Cate Blanchett’s Oscar dress, but we know it’s not to everyone’s taste.
Well known for her kooky style, Cate pulled off this stunning light lilac backless frock by Givenchy.
However, unlike many others the detailing didn’t stop there. Yellow beading formed the back straps of this chiffon number, while cut out detailing in the middle really made this frock stand out.
But tell us what you think. Is it a red carpet fab or red carpet flop?
Like with the Oscar‘s ceremony we were a little bit hard pressed to find a worst dressed celebrity at the Vanity Fair Oscar 2010 party. Katie Price stuck to Elton’s do, and other celebs really dressed for the occasion.
However, there is always one that gives us an excuse for a little “what was she wearing” comment and we’re sorry to say that these words have fallen on Selma Blair.
We don’t mind the sparkly frock, but the length is a little bit confused for us, sitting too far under the knee and too high up to make it full length. We also think the blazer the actress has teamed it up with is too heavy for the outfit.
And we understand that it was cold, but Selma, really, you’re already wearing a blazer, you don’t need a scarf. Take a look around you and have a think about all those ladies who have braved the freeze without even a shawl.
There were a range of different trends at this year’s Oscars (metallic stood out for us here), but these also carried on into the after parties. We saw short, black and blue, as well as metaliic at many of these parties.
However one trend that really stuck out at the Vanity Fair after party was asymmetric necklines. These were sported by the likes of Victoria Beckham, who wore the same frock to Elton’s event and the Vanity Fair party, Kate Beckinsdale, who looked stunning in an on-trend silver long dress and Jessica Simpson who spice up anotherwise plain black dress with this neckline.
