By Andrea Petrou on June 7th, 2010

Last night London was filled with a range of UK TV stars who donned their best frocks and hit the London Palladium for the TV Baftas, which celebrate British soaps and series.

And as you can imagine there were some amazing frocks. Fresh from the Britian’s Got Talent final on Saturday Amanda Holden stepped out in a gorgeous silver and white asymmetric dress complete with a corsage strap and daring split, while Sophie Ellis-Bextor went for a vintage look teaming up a green shift dress with a lace overlay.

Ex Eastenders star Kara Tointon also stole the show in a white long asymmetric dress, which was very similar to the one worn by Corrie star Michelle Keegan.

Gavin and Stacey star Joanna Page and Silent Witness actress Emilia Fox however went for a black, Joanna opting for a long cowel neck frock while Emilia for a v-neck slightly boho style.

We’ve put together a gallery of our best dressed of the night but keep reading because we’ll be bringing you alot more TV Bafta fashion.

Gallery: Celebrities mark the closing of Marina Abramovic’s ‘The Artist is Present’ show at MOMA in New York.

By Andrea Petrou on June 2nd, 2010

It was another night of celebrity style as A-listers stepped out to mark the closing of Marina Abramovic’s ‘The Artist is Present’ show at MOMA in New York.

But it was Courtney Love who really stole the fashion limelight at the event hosted by Givenchy. The troubled star turned up looking young and glamorous in a sheer dress by the designer.

Other noted celebrities included Christina Ricci and Liv Tyler who channelled the designer’s latest collection, while Maricarla Boscono took the fashion trend to the next level turning up in a sheer bra top. Bjork also lit up the evening in a gold shiny dress, which wouldn’t have looked out of place on Lady Gaga, while Joan Smalls carried on the sheer look with a white, very seethrough frock.

See our gallery for all the celebrity fashion of the night.

By Andrea Petrou on May 21st, 2010

Day 9 of the Cannes Film Festival saw A-listers dressing up in the name of charity for the AmfArRs Cinema Against AIDS benefit gala at the Hotel du Cap.

Fresh off her catwalk debut Mischa Barton went for Marchesa while Jennifer Lopez unsurprisingly opted for a pink princess frock by Roberto Cavalli.

Paris Hilton also turned up in a white bridal inspired number. However our best dressed starlets of the night have to be Kate Beckinsale, who looked amazing in a silver gown by Armani Prive and Emily Blunt who wowed us in a simple red dress.

Cannes Film Festival 2010 trends: White

By Andrea Petrou on May 19th, 2010

We’ve been covering the Cannes Film Festival all week and one thing we’ve noticed is that it’s the usual A-listers at each event. So we’ve decided to mix it up a bit and look at some of the trend that have been flowing around at all the premiers and parties. And what better way to start than with the celebrity style du jour white.

Now we’re not just talking about the bridal look here although Eva Longoria and Fan Bing Bing have sported this trend at one time during the event, we’re talking about the colour in general.

Eva Hertzigova and Lindsay Lohan decided to wear this colour at the Chopard party as did Nicky Hilton and Lady Victoria Hervey and yesterday’s events were no different with Naomi Campbell and Myleene Klass opting for this shade at the De Grisogono Dinner Party and Doutzen Kroes at the Of Gods and Men premier.

View our gallery for all the white dresses over the Cannes Film Festival so far.

Celebs turn up for the Word Music Awards and Jennifer Lopez makes diva demands

By Andrea Petrou on May 19th, 2010

Cannes may still be going but last night France was hit by another celebrity fuelled event. This time it was the World Music awards 2010 that took place in Mote Carlo.

Paris and Nicky Hilton made their way from the Film Festival to the music event dressed in pink and white dresses respectively while Jennifer Lopez wowed in an animal print frock and today made headlines as a result of her diva like demands.

Rumour has it the diva who also performed at the awards, demanded a helicopter and diamond encrusted headphones amongst other hugely ridiculous things.

Other more down to earth stars that made an appearance included Hayden Panettiere in a short slinky dress and Michelle Rodriguez who went for a LBD for her red carpet appearance.

Cannes Film Festival 2010 day 6: The Biutiful Premier

By Andrea Petrou on May 18th, 2010

We may be well into the Cannes Film Festival 2010 but it hasn’t stopped celebrities making an effort with their frocks, in fact as the days go on the dresses just seem to be getting better, and in some cases bigger too.

The Biutiful premier, which took place yesterday saw a huge variety of frocks from the straight and elegant to the big and not so Biutiful.

Naomi Watts as always wowed in a boatneck black long frock, which she teamed up with minimal make-up for the simple yet elegant look. Helena Mattson also opted for this style and dressed it up with 50s style hair and make-up.

Kate Beckinsdale took the red carpet look to racey new heights with her black luxe dress complete with high split and Naomi Campbell went for a mosaic gold sequined dress.

However while slinky dictated the main fashion theme others went for something completely different. Fan Bing Bing opted for the traditional yet tiresome white bridal inspired frock while Adrianna Karembeu went for a grey version of this theme.

Take a look at the gallery and tell us who was your best dressed.

Eva Herzigova goes for a LBD for the Princess of Montpensier premier

By Andrea Petrou on May 17th, 2010

Eva Herzigova Cannes International Film Festival 2010 - Day 5 - 'The Princess Of Montpensier' premiere-400.jpg

While other celebrities are donning long ball gown dresses in a bid to make best dressed lists at this years Cannes Film Fesrival Eva Herzigova decided to go for something totally different.

The model shunned smart frocks and instead went for a LBD complete with stunning black killer heels for the day four premier of The Princess of Montpensier.

We love this almost punk look, which really made Eva stand out and is a much more wearable version of a lot of the other frocks celebrities wear.

What do you think of Eva’s dress? Leave your comments below and let us know.

Cannes 2010: Get the bag that Aishwarya RAI wore to the Robin Hood Premier

By Andrea Petrou on May 13th, 2010

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.jpg

Aishwarya RAI is a name we haven’t heard for a while, but she’s been on our fashion radars ever since her role in Bride and Prejudice and Pink Panther.

The actress who made her debut in the Bollywood film industry is known for her ethnic inspired fashion sense and red carpet dresses and shone in a blue lace and net dress alongside Eva Longoria at the Robin Hood premier at this year’s 2010 Cannes Film festival.

However, it wasn’t just the rouched frock we had our eye on, it was also her gorgeous crystal clutch bag so we did a little bit of research and found out that it’s from Swarovski. And you can get your hands on it too for £560.

It may sound like a lot of money, but it’s not often you can say you have a “red carpet bag”.

Salma Hayek wears the first ever Gucci Couture dress to the Cannes Film Festival 2010

By Andrea Petrou on May 13th, 2010

Salma Hayek red carpet Gucci.jpg

Salma Hayek’s one very lucky lady. The actress who is married to Francois-Henri Pinault, head of the PPR group which owns Gucci, Balenciaga and Yves Saint Laurent has been given the ultimate fashion privilege – to wear the first ever Gucci Couture dress.

And what better place to wear it than to the Cannes film festival 2010.

We reported on rumours of the brand’s new venture back in January, but until now we’ve seen no concrete evidence. However it seems the company has been working behind the scenes with this one and one thing’sfor sure; now that Salma’s started the trend, celebrities will be out in this designer range too. But will they look as stunning as Salma? We’ll just have to wait and see.

By Andrea Petrou on May 13th, 2010

It was the first day of of the 2010 Cannes festival yesterday and as we would expect stars turned out in their hundreds.

However unlike other premiers and awards events where A-listers dress up to the nines, this week long event takes a whole new different meaning on fab frocks.

At the Robin Hood premier, which took place at the event yesterday frocks were big and fabulous, and if we’re honest some really took our breath away. Kate Beckinsdale wowed in a blue frock while Kate Blanchett opted for black.
