Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Monthly Archives: October 2009

Regular readers will know that I was dead against the Sex and the City 2 film because I thought the story concluded when Carrie and Big got married.

It was the ending we all hoped for.

I only recently jumped on-board the sequel train, when I saw Sarah Jessica Parker walking the streets of Manhattan wearing a white Halston dress and Louboutin heels.

But then THIS happened. Miley Cyrus was spotted on set with Kim Cattrall wearing the same paillette detailed Matthew Williamson mini dress this weekend.

You know how I feel about Miley, so it won’t surprise you to know that my desire to watch this film has just died.

Let me know how it goes because I won’t be paying money to watch this brat.

What’s she doing in this movie anyway? Is she even old enough to watch it?

N.B. Regular readers will also know that it will only take the next candids of SJP to get me back on board.

Kim and Miley’s dress was not featured on the runway, but the detail of the dress was featured in both Matthew Williamson Fall and Pre-Fall 2009 collections.

Kylie Minogue has also worn this dress, but hers was minus the embellished details on the bodice.

“Viola Di Mare” Premiere

Maria Grazia Cucinotta was by far my favourite on the red carpet this weekend.

The stunning actress looked divine wearing an Armani Privé spiral gown which was embroidered with Swarovski crystals.

This gown is very similar to the Privé gown Sharon Stone wore recently.

Isabella Ragonese wore a beautiful dress with an unmistakable Missoni floral print from the Fall 2008 collection.

The grey and blue print dress had ruffled shoulders and an embellished detail cascading down one  side.

We don’t often get so see Roberta Armani on the red carpet, but she doesn’t disappoint wearing a Giorgio Armani Fall 2009 two-tone black on gold bustier dress.

Her brunette locks were swept to one-side, as she paired her dress with Armani accessories.

“Viola Di Mare” Photocall

I loved Isabella Ragonese’s Missoni dress, but I wasn’t crazy about her Isabel Marant Fall 2009 look.

I much prefer the runway colour combination.

“Up In The Air” Premiere

I wasn’t a fan of Elisabetta Canalis last red carpet look, but she does a complete 180 by looking spectacular wearing an Armani Privé Fall 2009 midnight blue strapless velvet gown, with a lighter blue satin bodice.

She opted to wear her sash around her neck rather than tying it into a cute bow as the look was presented on the runway.

George Clooney was decked out in Giorgio Armani tuxedo.

“The Imaginarium Of Doctor Parnassus”

Lily Cole opted for a very familiar Dolce & Gabbana black corset gown, which looks amazing on her.

Despite seeing this gown many times in various colours, I’m not bored seeing it on Lily.

Rose McGowan toned down the sex kitten for a demure look despite the bright fuchsia colour of her Dolce & Gabbana gown.

Normally her looks are shorter, tighter and more revealing.

“The Last Station” Premiere

Helen Mirren was perfection personified – as always – wowing the crowds wearing a sleeveless gown with a large bow and diamond brooch detail.

She was easily my second favourite from this weekends looks.

When I originally posted this last month H&M requested I take the pictures down.

WWD have added the pictures to their site so the pictures are now officially released.

The women’s Jimmy Choo for H&M collection has been revealed and it includes a stunning array of shoes, bags and accessories.

This is the first time Jimmy Choo will extend its range to women’s clothing to complement the accessories.

I love the collection. It’s better than expected. I’m just scared that their is going to be a stampede. These pieces are just too good to miss.

The collection goes on sale November 14 in 200 worldwide H&M stores.

Cheryl Cole looked stunning on the X Factor on Saturday night wearing another Atelier Versace Spring 2009 mini dress.

Like last week she wore a structured dress, but this one was made up of red paillettes with she paired with a silver belt.

I’m guessing she’s developed a knack for sitting in such difficult dresses.

Last week she sported an large plait in her hair, but this week her trademark big hair was back.

I love the dress, but I would’ve loved to have seen a more playful pair of heels.

This dress has been worn twice before so look out for tomorrow’s WWIB? poll.

On Sunday nights results show Cheryl wowed the X Factor audience in a less structured sparkling strapless dress paired with Fendi heels.

It was on the Sunday show were gave her first solo performance of her first solo single “Fight For This Love” in front of her husband Ashley Cole and Girls Aloud bandmates Nicole Roberts, Sarah Harding and Kimberley Walsh.

Her military-inspired outfit included a peaked shoulder military jacket, a military cap, a sheer bodystocking, harem pants with slits down the side Alexander Wang Lara Combat Ankle Boots.
