Viola Davis joined Maggie Gyllenhaal on the red carpet at the Ziegfeld Theater in New York City yesterday for the premiere of their latest movie ‘Won’t Back Down’.
The Oscar-nominated actress wore a delightful teal-blue Alberta Ferretti Pre-Fall 2012 dress.
Her floor-length look with a pleated detail was styled with Miriam Salat ‘Deco Cascade’ earrings.
With natural afro hair in a honey-coloured hue, she completed her look with smoky eyes and a copper lip colour.

Alberta Ferretti’s Spring 2013 show started with a mood video of crashing waves before the first model took to the runway with wet-looking hair, wearing an ivory-fringed long-sleeve dress with a light chiffon underlay.
It quickly became clear that Ms Ferretti had created a beautiful underwater world where she entranced us with more beautiful ivory beaded and fringed dresses. We then dived deeper into the collection were she unearthed some ocean-blue and marine-green delights including high-shine liquid gowns which looked like a mermaid had just emerged from the sea.
The highlights included a succession of stunning gowns draped with fishnet-like overlays shimmering with paillette embellishments, which looked like water drops, chiffon tops with trains fluttering down the runway plus dresses with intricate embroidered details that, on closer inspection, resembled sea anemones and coral reefs.
Among the red-carpet-worthy gowns we saw shorts, Chantilly lace-embroidered tops, cropped pants, blazers and a beautiful coat.
Key accessories included beautiful beaded drawstring bags, Alexis Bittar jewels and silk ankle-strap slingback heels.
Front Row: Anna Dello Russo, Alessia Marcuzzi and Franca Sozzani

Eva Longoria wasn’t done wowing us on the red carpet at the 2012 ALMA Awards which she co-hosted with George Lopez in LA this weekend.
The actress looked breathtaking, and at least 6ft tall, wearing an Alberta Ferretti Fall 2012 gown.
She just oozes glamour in this velvet strapless gown with sheer geometrical panels.
I was slightly disappointed to see the Brian Atwood ‘Maniac’ pumps peeping through; as you know I’m a diehard strappy sandals gal.
What I’ve loved most about Eva during the ALMAs is that Ken Paves, or whoever styled her hair on this occasion, didn’t opt for any pageant queen hairstyles.
They tend to kill most of her looks.

Kristen Wiig went for a vintage-inspired look for the ‘Imogenee’ premiere during the Toronto Film Festival last week.
The actress, writer and comedian wore a dress from the Alberta Ferretti Pre-Fall 2012 collection for the event.
I love this laid-back nod to the 20s look on Kirsten. The dark purple goes well against her fair skin and dark hair, while the semi-casual fit seems to suit her personality.
The shoes, however, are an odd match, though it could be the photography and the light, and the necklace is an unnecessary addition.
Loose waves and pastel pink make-up complete her look.

Last night, Selena Gomez hit the red carpet again at the Toronto Film Festival. This time it was for the premiere of her film ‘Hotel Transylvania’.
For the event, Selena chose a gown from Alberta Ferretti’s Fall 2012 collection.
Selena certainly does like to keep me on my toes with her style hits and misses. This look, however, gets the actress a big tick in the plus box.
The dress suits her form beautifully, while the Jimmy Choo ‘Lance’ sandals, Swarovski clear crystal ‘Sensation’ drop earrings. and box clutch are the perfect understated accessories.
Selena finished her look with gently-waved hair and natural makeup.

Ashley Benson continued on her single colour bender for the premiere of ‘Spring Breakers’ at the Venice Film Festival last night.
For the evening event, she wore a stunning royal blue Alberta Ferretti gown.
The column dress skims her body to perfection and the beaded details add an interesting accent, making the look a huge step up from her neutral photocall ensemble.
Ashley kept her accessories, which included rings by Dalla Nonna to a minimum, though the earrings by Dana Rebecca Designs packed a stunning punch.
Smokey eyes and an elegant updo added finesse to her look.
