Earlier this year we had never heard of French actress Bérénice Marlohe, but the latest Bond movie, ‘Skyfall’, put her firmly on the map.
She will be remembered mostly for her two-tone eye makeup, but let’s not forget she did have some great red carpet moments.
Starting off back in May with her co-star Naomie Harris in Istanbul, she donned a demure Roksanda Ilincic Spring 2012 dress, but her womanly curves just made this look scream sexy.
Cut to October and she blew us away wearing a stunning Julien MacDonald strapless dress for the Moscow photocall. This wasn’t the only time she would wear the British designer during this tour. She also wore his dresses to the London premiere after-party and the Tokyo Omega event.
Her other favourite designer was Elie Saab; she wore his gowns to the Paris and Zurich premieres.
Despite going big and bold in Vivienne Westwood in London, my favourite look was the J. Mendel gown at the Sydney premiere.
The only turkey on this tour was sadly her Armani Privé look, but that was down to the styling.

The gorgeous purple J. Mendel dress was also my favourite looks, she looks absolutely stunning. After seeing the movie (which was fantastic) I am surprised the Berenice was at so many events but I enjoyed seeing her looks, she had a great run on the red carpet.
The Vivienne Westwood in London was gorgeous! My number 1 with no doubts !
My number 1: Vivienne Westwood in London as well!!
My top favorite is the Ferragamo from the London Photocall. The lovely purple J. Mendel follows as the runner-up.
As I said on another post I think too much fuzz was made over her during this promo tour. Her part was surprisingly small in the movie and IMHO she didn’t even portrayed it very well. But I know in the end all they want is a lot of pretty girl faces around 007 to promote the whole ladies’ man thing.
Ooops, the Ferragamo from the NY Photocall, not London. That’s my top favorite from her.
I much preferred her tour to Naomie’s even though I had a lot of issues with fit and styling for many looks. My favorite was the Westwood, but I like the first five looks plus the Elie Saab at Zurich, the Ports at the Berlin Photocall and the last Julien MacDonald.
A tie between the NY photocall and Sydney Premiere.

I really think she is one of the worst dressed celebrities of the year. Herr taste is very very questionable.
Oh I agree, can’t say I like any of these especially much.
She gets my “How to look bad in Elie Saab” award (her Paris premiere in particular).
I don’t have a fave, none of the looks are working 100% on her for me.
I am surprised to find a woman who doesn’t look right in Elie Saab. I never thought I’d see the day.
I had whittled it down to four: Roksanda Ilincic /Istanbul Photocall, Vivienne Westwood/London Premiere, J. Mendel/Sydney Premiere, and Ports 1961/Berlin Photocall. Then I surprised myself and went with Ports 1961. There’s something so effortlessly elegant about it. It erased some of her “trying too hard” efforts; her makeup isn’t heavy, her hair isn’t fussy. She relaxed a bit and just looked casually beautiful.
