Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Dior was the winner this week, but we picked two very different gowns.

You selected the beautiful princess-y gown worn by Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence, while I picked the sleek peplum gown worn by Charlize Theron.

No surprised that you voted Eddie Redmayne in Alexander McQueen, as he has pretty much dominated this poll since time began.

I picked Channing Tatum. Partly because he looked so dapper in his black three-piece Gucci suit and partly because I have a major crush on him.

Mila Kunis In Alexander McQueen - 'Oz The Great And Powerful' London Premiere

Mila Kunis continued her winning premiere-look streak on Thursday evening at the ‘Oz: The Great and Powerful’ London premiere held at The Empire Cinema.

The star looked sophisticated in an Alexander McQueen Spring 2013 gown.

After being away from the red carpet for some time, Mila has really used the media tour of this film to remind everyone of her fashion-savvy and this modern, ruffled gown is the perfect combination of fun and glamour.

Because of her diminutive frame, I do wish that Mila had worn a slightly higher heel, so her dress didn’t drag the ground.

Another option would be to pull up her hair–despite wearing her hair down with a strapless gown with great success at the film’s Moscow premiere, her straight locks weigh her down a bit in this gown. I think a youthful updo might have better.

Despite these complaints, Mila looks young and fresh, and I’d definitely consider this look a ‘win’.

2013 Oscars Menswear Round Up

While the women looked absolutely gorgeous at the 2013 Oscars, the men used the biggest black tie event of the year to showcase some truly dapper looks. A large majority of the men stuck to the classic black and white, as opposed to navy and grey, and it paid off. With all the cleaned-up looks, it was surprising to see that the most popular trend of the night was facial hair. From full beards to scruff, the men of the Oscars made a manly statement.

Channing Tatum: Before dancing with Charlize Theron in the opening, the popular actor donned a nicely fitted Gucci made-to-order navy three-piece tux with Martin Katz studs and cufflinks. His outfit featured a classy shawl lapel and shirt studs. He rocked his tux all night with a huge smile thanks to his glowingly beautiful pregnant wife, Jenna Dewan-Tatum.

Eddie Redmayne: Here’s the one you’ve all been waiting for. The always-dapper Eddie Redmayne arrived in a slim-fit Alexander McQueen black tuxedo with wide peak lapels. Like he’s shown over the past few months, Eddie knows how a suit should fit, and this tux fit perfectly. Finishing off his look with a tribute to the old school, he wore gold studs and, my favourite part, black tuxedo slippers.

Ben Affleck: That fantastic beard is back. The director and producer of Best Picture winner ‘Argo’ wore a Gucci black three-piece tuxedo that featured peak lapels. With his black bow tie, Ben wore a white shirt with a wing-tip collar. The pants could have been a bit shorter, but what he lacks in tailoring he makes up for in facial hair. Ben’s wife, Jennifer Garner, also wore Gucci to the event.

Elizabeth Banks In Alexander McQueen

Elizabeth Banks was one of the many stars to attend the 2013 Vanity Fair Oscars party, hosted on Sunday evening at the Sunset Tower in Hollywood.

The ‘The Hunger Games’ actress wore a bold Alexander McQueen gown, Brian Atwood shoes, Dior jewels and an Alexander McQueen clutch.

The vibrant orange gown makes Elizabeth look fun and fresh and she pulls of the low-cut bodice well.

Unfortunately, the star’s hair is entirely too otherworldly for my taste. The height of the pouf just looks silly, instead of finishing her look off strong.

What do you think? Is this look a win, or does the hair detract from the gorgeous gown?

SalmaHayekAlexanderMcQueen

Salma Hayek wowed on the red carpet at Sunday’s 2013 Oscars at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles.

Normally one to choose a low-cut dress, Salma went the opposite direction in a high-neck cut from Alexander McQueen.

In a baroque design, the actress stunned in a gold-embellished neckline that blended into a sweetheart cut of midnight blue velvet. The curve-hugging dress showed off her hourglass figure, making the petite actress actually look quite statuesque.

Salma styled her ornate gown with a gold box clutch and tiara, also from Alexander McQueen. To top it all off, she chose a high and voluminous bun, smokey eye, and nude lip.

Cindy Chao jewels completed her look.

Amanda Seyfried absolutely glowed as she glided down the red carpet Sunday at the 2013 Oscars held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.

The ‘Les Misérables’ actress wore a custom Alexander McQueen halter gown.

The lilac organza gown covered in silver dragonfly embroidery is a subtle enough hue to be perfectly in line with the trend of the night–nude–but the halter and keyhole neckline do stand apart from the crowd of strapless gowns.

Her pastel makeup, softly finished hair and Lorraine Schwartz earrings complete a perfectly ethereal look, but unfortunately, the whole thing strikes me as a little dated (1980s), and I’m not crazy about it.
