Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Monthly Archives: May 2011

Radio DJ Jo Whiley attended the Ivor Novello Awards at the Grosvenor House in London this lunchtime.

Finally someone has worn this Stella McCartney Citrus-print silk-satin dress from the Spring 2011 collection.

I was worried we were going to go a whole summer without seeing this on the red carpet, which proves I’ve become too used to celebrities wearing looks out-of-season as we’re barely out of May.

She teamed her bold halter dress which has a tabard-style open panel and two thigh-high splits with an orange bracelet, a chic updo and nude pumps.

The runway sandals would be better, but she looks fabulous nonetheless.

Beyonce Knowles’ highly-anticipated music video for “Run the World (Girls)” made its debut last night in the US, and it was the fashion-packed extravaganza we were expecting.

Here is a rundown of her looks.

She starts of wearing a red Alexander McQueen Fall 2010 dress with gold embroidered detailing which she paired with Alexander McQueen Grinling Gibbons gold heeled thigh-high boots from the same collection.

For a neck breaking dance routine Beyonce dons a black Norma Kamali fringed number with a golden harness and a black bustier. I loved the fringed Alexander Wang heels with this look.

Next we get a look at the gorgeous Givenchy Spring 2011 Couture gown I spotted from a very grainy photo in the desert.

As water bathes Beyonce she looks ready for war wearing a black Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2011 Couture black number with cut-out details and a tailcoat.

The golden girl stomps her way through the next scene wearing an ultra short Gareth Pugh Fall 2011 turtleneck dress which she teams with some pretty spectacular gold mirrored Gareth Pugh ankle boots whilst a car is in flames in the background.

Beyonce wore an Emilio Pucci Spring 2010 yellow gold embroidered dress as she kicks off an energetic routine with her crew.  Sergio Rossi Gladiator boots with studs and feather details completed this look.

Next up was another Emilio Pucci gown, this time from the Fall 2011 collection.  The green goddess long sleeve gown with a slash detail, thigh-high split and a sequined sleeve must have been glued to her as she’s really dancing hard during this scene.

I’m sure many of you will be running hard to this track at the gym like I will.

Penelope Cruz smoldered on the red carpet last night for the “Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides” Madrid Premiere.

She opted to wear yet another Armani Privé gown, this time it was black.

The black elegant gown with a black floral lace sleeves with the same detail embroidered onto the bodice showcases what a fine figure of a woman she is.

A black satin Swarovski clutch and silver jewels completed her look.

Which Privé gown do you prefer?

The more modern Munich Privé gown or this more classic Privé gown in Madrid?

Olivia Palermo was first spotted wearing these Kurt Geiger Corso Como pumps back in October when she attended the Giambattista Valli Spring 2011 presentation in Paris.

This morning I was surprised to see that the gorgeous heels were still available online.

Her stunning mustard pumps have contrasting coloured gem detailing which provides a subtle sparkle.

Olivia then went onto wearing these pumps on 3 more occasions.

Each time it provided a pop of colour to liven up each outfits.

Normally she does this with her jewelry or a stand out clutch, but it was all about the pumps on these occasions.

You can buy Olivia’s pumps from Kurt Geiger.com.

Many of you thought Rachel McAdams was slightly overdressed for the screening of her new movie, “Midnight in Paris” yesterday.

She later changed into an Azzaro Fall 2011 jumpsuit for the after party at the Soho Grand Hotel.

Whilst I’m not sure I 100% agree that she was overdressed, I do think this black tuxedo jumpsuit would have worked better for a discreet screening.

I love the black bow tie and beaded button detailing.

Christian Louboutin black patent heels worked perfectly with this look.
