2015 InStyle Awards Red Carpet Roundup

2015 InStyle Awards Red Carpet Roundup

Many more beauties (and one token lad) joined the mix at the 2015 InStyle Awards, held at the Getty Center in Los Angeles, California on Monday (October 26).

Miranda Kerr: Unfortunately, the flirty spirit of the supermodel’s Ulyana Sergeenko mermaid-inspired design was compromised by the unusual bodice and faux cutouts with white seam lines that turned the top half into something of an ice-skating costume. Jimmy Choo metallic sandals and a fun topknot rounded out the look.

Michelle Williams
: Channeling her inner rocker girl, Michelle donned an edgy Louis Vuitton ensemble that brought leather, laces studs, and embellishment to the party. Rather than opt for a black sandal, she kept the tough-chic theme going strong with her shoe-boots, messy hair and kohl-rimmed eye makeup. It may have been a bit much, but it all certainly translated more effectively than Selena Gomez’s Louis Vuitton effort.

Alessandra Ambrosio
: While Alessandra’s skin-baring side cutouts were real instead of illusion-lined, this Alexandre Vauthier Couture white plunge gown was just more of the same from the supermodel who never met a cutout she didn’t like. A Lee Savage clutch completed her typically sexy look.

Alexandra Daddario: A patchwork, multi-patterned gown such as this Diane Von Furstenberg design really needs a sleeker, pulled-back hairstyle to elevate it into more sophisticated territory. Plus, it would have been a lovely way to even more strongly draw attention to her great fuchsia lip.

Halston Sage
: The young starlet wore a Giambattista Valli dress that brought a sexy edge to the spirited quirk of the dimensional lips and ladybugs. But the top would have fared just as well had it not been sheer.

Kim Kardashian: Relying on a familiar cape-style silhouette that we’ve seen before, Kim outfitted her burgeoning belly in this Valentino gown. While it was a bit too tight for comfort, I do wish she had maintained its sleek minimalistic nature by skipping that choker necklace.

Dakota Johnson: Putting her best androgynous foot forward, the actress suited up in a Louis Vuitton double-breasted jacket and trousers. I didn’t favour her messy hair styling on this occasion as it seemed a mere afterthought to the tailored ensemble.

Odeya Rush
: Her Fausto Puglisi Resort 2016 tiered ruffle dress in the label’s signature chain-link print was complemented by Brian Atwood bronze platform heels. A different, non-platform shoe style would have immediately added a more elegant layer to this look.

Zoe Kravitz: Again relying on sheer elements, Zoe donned a white Calvin Klein Collection Spring 2016 gown styled with Chopard jewels and a body chain. I simply cannot find any appeal in this look—from the ill-fitting and sagging silhouette to the pair of white hot pants underneath.

Judy Greer: I loved the rosy coral and red hues presented in this Sachin & Babi Noir frock that also featured a playful mood with polka dots and stripes. The white Lee Savage clutch and black pumps killed that mood so it’s better to ignore them.

Emmy Rossum
: Fully embracing a rich fall colour palette, the actress wore a chocolate brown leather Tod’s dress with a dramatic burgundy lip.

Ansel Elgort: While the navy-blue shade of this Louis Vuitton suit was on point, the ensemble as a whole seemed a bit rumpled. The unbuttoned, tie-less shirt didn’t help matters.
