Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Dear Celebrities & Stylists,

Julien Macdonald is a very talented designer and for his Fall 2010 collection he made 30 looks.

With this in mind, please can you let us know why this chiffon lace pleated gown from the Fall 2010 collection appears to be the only look of interest.

Yes it’s an amazing dress, but hasn’t exactly caused much excitement off the runway.

On Cheryl Cole it looked OK.

On Alex Curran it looked a mess and Tamara Ecclestone doesn’t look much better despite pairing her dress with the runway heels.

I hope this is the final outing for this dress, because I think I speak for everyone when I say we are OVER this dress.

Former WAG Cheryl Cole (Tweedy) and current WAG Alex Curran (Gerrard) have been spotted wearing the same Julien Macdonald chiffon lace pleated gown from the Fall 2010 collection within weeks of each other.

Cheryl wore the mini dress with a flowing train when she arrived at the 2010 Glamour Women Of The Year Awards in London 2½ weeks ago.

Her custom nude dress was accessorized with a sparkling grey VBH clutch and Jimmy Choo Quinze embellished booties.

When I first saw Cheryl in this dress I wished she had worn the runway version.

After seeing it on Alex I’m really glad she didn’t, as the all nude feels more delicate and ethereal, compared to the harshness of Alex’s look.

Alex was spotted leaving the Mayfair Hotel in London enroute to Elton John’s “White Tie and Tiara Ball” wearing the slightly modified runway dress last night.

This is not the first time Alex has been spotted wearing the same dress as a WAG further up the food chain.

She wore the same yellow RM by Roland Mouret dress 9 days after Queen WAG Victoria Beckham.

As these dresses are from the Fall 2010 collection, they are not currently in store so I’m guessing Alex had to request the dress.

I would like to think that Alex believes she’s wearing a totally different dress, but I’m sure she knows it’s essentially the same.

Every time I try to give Alex some credit for her style it seems that she copies the style of whoever it hot at that moment.

She done Victoria Beckham, Rihanna now she’s moved onto Cheryl. Damn even her hair swept to one side is the same.

I much prefer the dress and make-up on Cheryl, so she wins for me.

Prefer The Runway Dress Award
All eyes would’ve been on Cheryl Cole at the 2010 Glamour Women Of The Year Awards which was held in London last night.

Not only did she win the “Woman of the Year” Award, but she also looked gorgeous wearing a nude lingerie-inspired Julien Macdonald Fall 2010 dress with a flowing train.

As much as I loved Cheryl in her custom-made dress – which is very much suited to her – I find the runway version more interesting.

The nude and black is more dramatic than the nude and dove grey, it really commands your attention.

I do like how Chezza accessorized her dress with a sparkling grey VBH clutch and Jimmy Choo Quinze embellished booties which celebrities love.

This is a great look for Cheryl, but I wasn’t crazy about her hair.

Cheryl Cole was the guest of honour at “de Grisogono Dinner Party” during Cannes Festival last night.

She looked breath-taking wearing a Roberto Cavalli black tulle strapless gown whilst dazzling with de Grisogono jewels.

Chezza loves a big gown, but the sleek mermaid gown doesn’t overwhelm her tiny frame.

She knows how to work a red carpet.

STUNNING.

Cheryl wasn’t there just to look pretty.

She was there to perform a 30 minute set of her recent hits.

After her performance she changed into a Julien Macdonald silk dress from the Fall 2010 collection.

The coral twisted pleat georgette dress is so Cheryl.

Cute and a bit daring.

I was expecting to see her wearing this dress during X Factor.

I love she continues to supports the London based designer unlike other Brits at Cannes.

Earlier in the day she was spotted at the Martinez Hotel in Cannes wearing an adorable Alice + Olivia playsuit and cropped jacket.

This week Jenni Falconer attended the “Elemis 20th Anniversary” in partnership with “Mothers4Children” charity in London.

The GMTV presenter can often be seen in high-street clothes, but just as often she opts for designer pieces like this grey Julien Macdonald Fall 2009 dress.

The wool jersey mini dress has peaked shoulders and leather details to give the dress a bit of an edge.

I don’t hate the tights, but they do make the shoes hard to view.

Jenni is a normal girl like us who just happens to be on TV.

As someone who watches GMTV every morning, I’ve seen Jenni wear this before. But as we all know she’s not afraid to repeat.

Take That singer Gary Barlow and his wife Dawn Barlow held a star studded bash at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in London’s Knightsbridge this week, to celebrate their tenth wedding anniversary.

Two member of Girls Aloud turned up to help him celebrate.

Cheryl Cole arrived wearing a body con Julian Macdonald scuba dress from the designers Spring 2010 collection.

I really love this dress on Cheryl, who stepped out with her footballer husband Ashley Cole.

I think that the sheer panels add some real sexiness to the dress, plus the peach is a nice contrast against the grey.

Cheryl has styled the dress with a By Malene Birger Mondi embellished felt necklace.

I’m not that hot on those gold Pierre Hardy shoes as I think they don’t do the silver tones of the necklace any favours at all.

Boyzone singer Ronan Keating was also there with his wife, model Yvonne Keating who towered over her husband in 6in Louboutin’s.

Yvonne was wearing a Victoria Beckham Peblum dress from the designer’s Spring 2010 collection, which we’ve previously seen on Blake Lively and Victoria Beckham herself.

I like this dress on Yvonne but I’m not crazy about the sheer tights. It’s still snowing in London so it kinda figures.

Singer and ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ winner Alesha Dixon was also there, braving the cold in a tiered white dress.

We’re used to seeing Alesha in frou frou style dresses and I must say, I don’t excatly hate this one.

I like the pop of colour her pink lipstick brings to the dress but wished she’d teamed it with a brighter clutch as well.

Fellow Girl’s Aloud member Kimberley Walsh arrived with her boyfriend Justin Scott.

Kimberley was wearing a sparkly body con mini dress with black tights.
