Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Yesterday evening, Shu Qi attended the 31st Hong Kong Film Awards.

The annual awards are the Hong Kong equivalent to the Oscars and the British BAFTAS.

The actress looked sensational wearing an Armani Privé Spring 2012 gown.

Her lime-green strapless gown, which is fully embroidered with paillettes, kind of reminds me of a kiwi fruit.

The gown with a daring plunging neckline was teamed with gold earrings and gold bracelets.

Shu Qi’s hair, which is now a rich auburn colour, was styled into a retro updo.

This gown fits her like a glove. She is truly radiant, but those gold earrings, which for some reason remind me of discarded Ferrero Rocher wrappers, don’t work for me.

They aren’t quite in tune with the elegant nature of her look and they are odd looking to say the least.

Penelope Cruz stepped on the red carpet in Hollywood tonight for the 2012 Oscars looking her best ever since her Atelier Versace at the 2007 Oscars.

The Spanish actress embodied screen sirens of Hollywood’s golden era in a custom Armani Privé gown.

I love the colour of the dress which is an ethereal combination of blue and grey blended to look like a stormy sky, and looks beautiful against her dark hair and olive skin.

The look features dramatic off-the-shoulder straps and a fitted bodice. The waist is enveloped by a drape of fabric that cascades into gathered pleats, causing an understated, luminescent liquid effect.

Chopard jewels, including a simple collar necklace which was a big trend of the night, accessorize the dress.

The stunning look was paired with a retro-inspired faux bob and Chopard jewels.

Ellie Kemper gave new meaning to the term ‘bronzed goddess’ at the 2012 Oscars held in Hollywood this evening.

The ‘Bridesmaids’ actress matched her dress to her gorgeous copper hair, wearing an Armani Privé Fall 2010 gown.

Her red hued evening gown was encrusted in scarlet, yellow and orange square pailletes, creating the illusion of an abstract flaming fire.

Her strapless gown is fitted into a strong yet slender silhouette.

I just love this stunning unique dress, but am not sold on such blunt bangs. If they had been just parted to the side, this would be completely amazing.

I’m not sure Jessica Chastain got the dress code memo for the 2012 Independent Spirit Awards, held on Saturday evening in Santa Monica, California.

Instead of going for a relaxed look like the other attendees at this beachside event, she wore an Armani Privé Spring 2012 skirt suit.

The black suit with lime piping feels way too formal.

It would’ve been great for a photocall or press conference, but I’m not excited about it on this occasion.

Penelope Cruz was the unexpected attendee at the 2012 BAFTA Awards in London this evening.

The Spanish beauty selected an Armani Prive gown in a rich merlot colour which complemented her dark colouring.

Her figure-flattering strapless gown, with a draped detail which wrapped around her waist and cascaded to the floor, was a bold choice on a cold night in London.

I would say I love this look from head to toe, but I’ve never been a fan of Penelope sporting bangs.

I was hoping she would’ve grown them out by now.

Whilst waiting for the Armani Prive Spring 2012 show to start, people around Jessica Chastain started clapping. It wasn’t a slow ‘When are you going to start the show?’ clap, but a congratulatory round of applause.

It later turns out that the Oscar-nominated actress had just received the good news prior to the show.

So the question ‘Who are you wearing?’ has just been made redundant as the actress must surely wear Armani on Oscar night.

I couldn’t be happier considering the actress is a redhead and this Armani Prive S12 collection was made up of mostly green pieces. Perfect combination. No?

At the show she kept her look simple and elegant in true Armani style wearing a black long-sleeve dress with an orange beaded neckline.

You could’ve knocked me down with a feather as the actress was also carrying a clutch.

Cameron Diaz and Jessica were very playful in the front row. Livia Giuggioli was taking pictures of the actresses on their mobile phones. Jessica obviously wanted a picture to commemorate the joyous occasion of being an Oscar-nominated actress.

Cameron looked the best she has all week. Her shorter blonde locks, which many of you have been struggling to like, were finally under control. She also kept her look simple wearing black pants and a black sheer top under an ecru wool coat.

The actress has attended nearly every show this week. She is in town to shoot a Couture shoot with InStyle US.

She turned to Roberta Armani when the look below took to the runway and said, “OMG, that is so beautiful.”

Oscar dress or option for her InStyle Couture shoot?

We will have to wait and see.
