Red Carpet Fashion Awards

We often she pictures of celebrity BBFs Kim Kardashian and Ciara shopping together, so I guess it was only a matter of time before they started developing the same tastes in clothes.

They have both been spotted wearing the same Stella McCartney jumpsuit and the same Brian Lichtenberg dress.

On this occasion we see them both wearing the same Carven taffeta dress.

Kim wore her dress shopping in Paris last month. She teamed her dress with a Chanel bag and Christian Louboutin leopard print studded ankle boots.

Ciara wore the same dress with similar Louboutin leopard print ankle boots to the “For Colored Girls” New York Premiere this week.

I was set to vote for Ciara, but I feel myself leaning toward Kim as I prefer her ankle boots and the fact that the hem of her dress is even.

Kim wins for me.

After featuring Janet Jackson and Thandie Newton at the “For Colored Girls” New York Premiere, here are the rest of the stunning looks which hit the red carpet.

Kerry Washington wore a charming Missoni print maxi dress with a complementary gold clutch.

I remember when I saw the Adam Spring 2011 presentation during New York Fashion Week, I said that the one piece which stood out was the red leather dress.

I guess it also stood out for Veronica Webb – who was front row at the presentation – because she wore the red leather dress last night with nude strappy sandals.

Ciara wore a Carven taffeta dress with super sexy Christian Louboutin leopard print ankle booties.

With her hair swept to one side to show off her green earrings, Tessa Thompson looked beautiful wearing a Versus Fall 2010 bustier dress with a velvet skirt which she paired with Rene Caovilla Swarovski crystal embellished sandals.

Anika Noni Rose added plenty of colour to the red carpet wearing an orange and gold embroidered dress with sexy gold strappy sandals.

I love the colour and style of Estelle’s new ‘do. This could be my Spring 2011 look.

The British singer wore a reptile print Alexander McQueen jacket with tapered leather pants, black pointy pumps and a Swarovski necklace.

Best Brand Ambassador Award
Ciara continues to put her best foot forward wearing Givenchy Couture.

I wasn’t initially excited about her being the face of Givenchy, but she wears their pieces really well.

This was definitely the case tonight at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards where she donned a feathered confection from the Givenchy Fall 2010 Couture collection.

Her look was elegant, sexy and befitting of a Givenchy girl.

I usually get the feeling that Ciara tries too hard on the red carpet, but that wasn’t the case tonight.

Pink wedges completed the look.

Ciara was one of of the many celebrity guests to arrive at New York’s Cipriani restaurant for the wedding of former MTV VJ LaLa Vasquez and her basketball beau Carmelo Anthony.

They say never wear white to a wedding to upstage the bride, but that should also extend to ultra mini dresses.

Ciara has a thing for Versace Spring 2010 mini dresses as we first saw her wearing one to the Us Weekly Hot Hollywood Style Issue Event earlier this year.

The singer’s pink printed Versace Spring 2010 asymmetrical mini was paired with platform heels from the same collection.

I would be too self conscious to wear this dress period let alone at a wedding, so I’ve got to respect Ciara for daring wear this mini in the first instance.

Under normal circumstances I would say this is no quite appropriate for a wedding, but with likes of Kim Kardashian arriving in a gold Herve Leger dress I would say their were no rules at this wedding.

As much as I loved Ciara’s Balmain dress on the red carpet at the 2010 BET Awards, I MUCH prefer her second look.

Ciara didn’t perform at the event, but she did introduce to El DeBarge.

She looked stunning wearing a red Dsquared² leather tube dress from the Fall 2010 collection.

The dress has a gathered detail which almost looks like a rose on the runway, but Ciara just let the detail hang.

I wish she’d styled it like the runway, but I also like it without the belt.

What I love most about this look are Ciara’s Dsquared² spine heels from the same Fall 2010 collection.

I expected Rihanna to be the first to wear these heels, but both Ciara and Alicia Keys have rocked them before her.

The Tyra Banks “Fierce” Award
Ciara looked amazing at the 2010 BET Awards which was held on a hot summers day in LA.

Her Balmain brocade dress from the Fall 2010 collection was detailed with gold fringing plus leather and gold metal chains.

She opted to wear a different belt from the runway, which I prefer.

Ciara was also one of the best dressed at this event, but I’m getting hot just looking at her in this long sleeve heavily textured dress.

She totally event appropriate and looks fierce in this dress.

I really can’t fault her, she could’ve found something equally fierce from a Spring collection surely.

Giuseppe Zanotti for Balmain cuff lace up booties complete the look.

What do you think?

Hot or too hot?
