Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Paz Vega In Alexandre Vauthier Couture - Bulgari Hosts ‘Cleopatra’ Cocktail

Paz Vega joined Jessica Chastain on the red carpet at the Hotel Marriott in Cannes, France yesterday evening for the Bulgari Hosts ‘Cleopatra’ cocktail party.

The Spanish actress hasn’t been seen on the red carpet since her Stéphane Rolland disaster, so I hope she has a chance to redeem herself and give us a BDOTY-worthy look before this festival ends on Sunday.

Paz opted for a simple black-and-white Alexandre Vauthier Spring 2013 Couture look consisting of a white silk blouse and high-waisted silk pants, which is infinitely sexier than her last outing.

Black satin pumps and an Alexandre Vauthier clutch accessorized her look, with the stand-out piece being that breathtaking Bulgari necklace.

Carey Mulligan In Nina Ricci - ‘The Great Gatsby’ Sydney Premiere

Following a short trip to promote her new movie ‘The Great Gatsby’ in Cannes last week, Carey Mulligan took to the red carpet at Moore Park in Australia for the Sydney premiere.

Despite the wet conditions, Carey opted for an arm-baring look from the Nina Ricci Fall 2013 collection.

Having stuck to a black-and-white colour palette during Cannes, this look featured a Chantilly lace blush-coloured bustier paired with black cropped pants, rather than the skirt this look was presented with on the runway.

Many of you will be delighted to discover that Carey’s makeup artist travelled with her on this leg of her promo tour. Just that pink lip colour alone brightens up her face, preventing her from looking so washed out and tired.

Giving her Brian Atwood ‘Aida’ peep-toes a break, the British actress wore Saint Laurent t-bar sandals on this occasion, with Tiffany jewels and wavy tresses completing her look.

Fan Bingbing In Chris by Christopher Bu - 'Emperor' Cannes Film Festival Press Junket

Fan Bingbing attended the ‘Emperor’ press junket with Jackie Chan during the Cannes Film Festival at Torch at Vegaluna Beach Club in France last week.

The actress used the occasion to showcase the Chris by Christopher Bu Spring 2013 collection. A first for her stylist/designer Bu Kewen.

He has taken Fan from a then little-known actress at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival to propelling Fan to Vanity Fair’s Best Dressed List in 2012, plus he styled her three looks on Oscar night this year.
It was after the Oscars that Bu launched his first women’s collection, named ‘From London with Love’.

For someone who co-designed Fan’s ‘Crane’ and ‘Dragon’ gowns, this collection is infinitely more wearable, opting for a playful aesthetic with many colourful prints, stripes and delicate pastels.

Fan selected a checked look featuring a yellow-and-white blouse with a high-waist black-and-white skirt, to which she added those can’t-live-without Giuseppe Zanotti platform peep-toes.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley In Mary Katrantzou - Gatwick Airport

If I could look half as good as Rosie Huntington-Whiteley while arriving off a 10-hour flight, I would be extremely happy.

The model/actress arrived at Gatwick Airport yesterday from LAX, redefining airport chic.

No prizes for guessing that the piece which piqued my interest the most was her Mary Katrantzou Spring 2013 currency-print blazer, but the overall look is very inspiring.

The rest of her look includes a simple grey tee and AG Adriano Goldschmied ‘The Legging Ankle’ jeans, which she accessorized with a nutmeg Viktor & Rolf ‘Bombette’ bag, an uber-chic fedora and nude Christian Louboutin pumps.

I covet every piece. Do you?

Li Yuchun In Roberto Cavalli - Chinese Party

Li Yuchun came to our attention yesterday wearing a Gareth Pugh Spring 2013 Chinese-red ensemble, which appears to be the marmite look of Cannes so far.

She proved she wasn’t afraid of taking a risk, wearing a bold colour and an unusual design at the Chinese Party held later that evening; she proved that she’s not afraid of prints either.
It would appear that Li Yuchun’s red carpet M.O. is of an androgynous nature.

I could be wrong and she’ll hit the red carpet later today in a tulle ballgown, but at the party she rocked another menswear-inspired look, this time from the Roberto Cavalli Fall 2013 collection.
The black-and-white look featuring a jacket with satin lapels was ripped right off the runway with the exclusion of the shoes.

Someone not so bold – unless they are Karolina Kurkova or Solange Knowles – would’ve added black pants or a black shirt to break up the prints; however, Yuchun rocked it as it was intended.

I can’t wait to see more of her style. I have a feeling she’s the Tilda Swinton of China.

Jessica Chastain In Givenchy - Bulgari Hosts 'Cleopatra' Cocktail

Following her Best Dressed of The Day look in Versace Collection for the ‘Cleopatra’ Cannes Film Festival premiere, where she wore a stunning necklace from the Elizabeth Taylor Bulgari Collection, Jessica Chastain attended a party hosted by Bulgari at the Hotel Marriott in Cannes, France yesterday evening.

Opting for white once again, the beautiful actress wore a Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci Spring 2014 crepe-de-chine gown with satin cut-outs and a plunging neckline.

On this occasion her jewel choice was a subtle emerald ring which stands out against the white backdrop of her gorgeous gown, and an emerald brooch accenting her flame-coloured locks.

She is such a class act. I love how elegant she always looks. I hope one day she is on the jury for Cannes so we can get to see this kind of magic for 12 days straight.

Tisci really needed this after…well…you know.
