Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Monthly Archives: April 2010

Chopard celebrated 150 years of excellence at The Frick Collection in New York City last night.

Claire Danes walked the red carpet wearing a Lanvin one-shoulder draped dress from the Spring 2010 collection.

Her dress is simply fabulous on the runway, but as we’ve witness so many times – with the exclusion of Jennifer Lopez – this Spring collection doesn’t particularly translate well off the runway.

The colour of me is not the issue, as the white doesn’t wash out Claire.

My issue is the way it kind hangs off Claire looking really lifeless.

Her dress is paired with co-ordinating ankle strap heels.

Her baby blue Chopard bracelet was added for a pop of colour, but seems like such a strange colour choice as it doesn’t complement her overall look.

Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine wore this elegant Christian Dior Spring 2010 dress, when she attended one of the “Brit Awards” after-parties in London back in February.

The flame-haired singer was celebrating after picking up the award for ‘Best British Album’.

She teamed her belted chevron print dress with the matching runway ankle-socks and platforms, plus layered necklaces and a deep red pout.

Rihanna opted for the same Dior dress when she arrived on the orange carpet at the “Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards” in LA last month

Rihanna also accessorised with the same matching ankle-socks and layered necklaces, but instead opted for Brian Atwood shoes.

She added bold-shoulder pads to her look to give it an Alexandre Vauthier-esqe feel.

I hated Rihanna’s choice of heels with this look plus the bold shoulders seemed try-hard, so Florence wins for me.

Kristen Bell was one of the many guests invited to Chanel’s 5th Annual Tribeca Film Festival Dinner.

She was of course wearing Chanel.

There is something about this 50s-inspired dress which makes me think of Blair Waldorf.

It’s not an edgy black, nor a sexy black dress, but sweet LBD.

Almost a bit too sweet, especially as she’s playfully holding her skirt in a “look at me mummy” kinda way.

I think an updo or a ponytail would have added something to this look, because Kristen isn’t really saying much in this dress despite the modified skirt and lined blouse.

She kinda looks the same as always.

I do like the ankle Chanel strap heels, the cuff bracelet and the clutch, but I just feel like something is missing.

Melissa George’s look was a surprise, as she walked the red carpet at the 2nd Annual Bent On Learning Benefit in New York City last night.

At first I thought the dress was from the Armani Prive Spring 2010 collection, but it’s actually from the Bibhu Mohapatra Fall 2010 collection.

I was distracted momentarily by the moon shaped crescent of this dress.

To borrow a phrase from Lainey, “Call me Cruise” but I like this look.

The Australian actress is really working it.

She knows it won’t be to everyone taste, especially as she wore the 20s black Cloche from look 1 from the same collection, but she gave it a go and it think she pulls it off.
