Elle Fanning eager to kick start her awards season, as she was among the first to hit the red carpet at the 2012 Critic’s Choice Awards, held in L.A. on Thursday evening.
The young actress wore a Rodarte Spring 2012 gown.
Her sunflower print gown was perfect for a sunny day in L.A.
Rodarte’s Van Gogh inspired Spring 2012 collection has seen little wear on the red carpet, so I’m happy to see the arty collection worn before next month’s Fall presentations.
This floaty floral dress works perfectly with Elle’s young and fresh persona.
Natural hair and makeup complete this youthful look.

wow this is gorgeous!
Why can´t I see “fresh and youthful”… All I see is a shapeless dowdy granny drab. Her dull hair doesn´t help, maybe with a more vibrant hair it wouldn´t have been nearly as bad.
can’t agree more! tragic hair and shapeless dress which actually makes her tiny body look really wide.
I definitely agree!
I agree. I am not a fan of this dress at all.
What a lovely dress. Very age appropriate and she looks so gracious. But what is on her feet?
It feels like it’s a bit to big on her, but I love the dress and the colors of it are angelic on Elle. I can’t really see her shoes, but I feel like I don’t like them. Maybe if the front hem had been shorter, as the model wears the dress, I would have liked it better. I really want to like this, but it’s just not quite right for me.
Gorgeous dress, works so well with her coloring …but the hair!
It’s a beautiful dress but it’s extremely ill fitted on her. I can help but think this is a waste of a great look.
the dress looks like # size bigger
It seems too big for her, but I appreciate Elle’s quirky fashion sense. If only it were a more stream-lined silhouette, as it appeared on the model–
well, i hope elle not tries to channeling alexa chung’s style(the hair, anyone?).
She’s got such a unique fashion sense, I might not always like what she wears but i do appreciate her stepping outside the box!
Very youthful and hippy look. Do feel the dress is a tad big though.
if i saw it without the rodarte label and van gogh reference, I would have laughed at this dress..
her make up is too dewy for me she looks greasy and maybe even stoned? who knows.
Gorgeous dress, I love it, but she doesn’t pull it off. A size smaller, and who knows, could’ve been on the money!
Beautiful. Fresh, young and romantic.
