Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Jessie J In Versace - 2013 Brit Awards

Even though Jessie J has been working this transformation for a while now, once again I almost didn’t recognise her on the red carpet at the 2013 Brit Awards, held at the O2 Arena in London this evening.

Giving us a our first look from the Versace Pre-Fall 2013 collection, the singer wore a black long-sleeved asymmetrical gown with a sexy plunge, which was accented with a gold belt with a Medusa buckle.

Much like Katy Perry, Jessie appears to have also given up the clown makeup and quirky attire and, while that period was fun while it lasted, I’m thankful for this more grown-up, sleek approach.

I know many of you haven’t been so welcoming to this change, saying that Jessie is now looking a tad generic. I think she looks anything but, even with those simple black Jimmy Choo ‘Anouk’ pumps, which in all honesty perfect the look.

In an attempt to shake off the ‘boring Biel’, mumsy, matronly tag some have given the newlywed, Jessica Biel opted for a super-sexy look on the red carpet for the ‘Playing for Keeps’ New York premiere held at the AMC Lincoln Square Theater yesterday evening.

You can’t get sexier than Versace, so she selected a show-stopping teal tie-dye-print gown from their Spring 2013 collection.

The one-flowing-sleeve gown with an asymmetrical cut was styled with a gold-and-black fringe belt.

After Heidi Klum turned me off this collection, I have to say I’m glad to see Jessica back to her former glory in this gown.

She has been playing it safe for a long while now, so this look is very refreshing.

However, the modification to shorten the cut irks me, if you’re going to wear a gown like this own it as it was presented.

The quick fix looks a bit sloppy.

Tousled tresses and gold Lorraine Schwartz jewels completed her look.

Much improved or boring Biel?

Kim Min-Hee wowed in ice-cool Versace at the Blue Dragon Film Awards in Seoul on Friday.

The Korean television and film actress sagely forwent any accessories save a pair of minuscule earrings to accompany the frosty sequined and paillette-adorned sheath from Donatella’s Fall 2012 ready-to-wear line.

Kim Min-Hee ’s best decision was to keep her hair casual with such a show-stopping dress—the unfussy ponytail and choppy bangs add a youthful nonchalance that would’ve been lost with a more manicured ’do.

You may remember that Doutzen Kroes wore this same Versace gown to the amfAR’s Cinema Against AIDS Gala during Cannes Film Festival.

Celine Dion also performed at the 2012 Bambi Awards held at the Stadthalle Düsseldorf in Germany yesterday evening.

She sang ‘River Deep Mountain High’ so, of course, she had to pay homage to Tina Turner’s 60s classic hit by wearing a fringed frock by Versace.

The Spring 2013 gold halter dress was worn without the black-and-gold waistband, but she did opt for the nude strappy booties we saw on the runway.

Opting for the same hairstyle she had on the red carpet and to collect her award, she completed her sexy look with gold jewels.

Does Celine go a long way towards recovering some of the damage done to this collection by Heidi Klum.

Nikki Reed joined her co-stars, Kristen Stewart and Ashley Greene, on the red carpet on Monday night for ‘The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2′ premiere, held at the Nokia Theatre L.A. Live in California.

In Nikki’s interview with us she did say that she was going to wear designers she has never worn before, and that was true in this case as she wore a gorgeous Versace gown.

Her light-grey strapless gown with silver embellishments outlining a corset, was styled with a silver Judith Leiber metallic box clutch.

Further complementary accessories included dazzling diamond earrings and rings.

A side-parted bun and flawless makeup completed her look.

All three ladies were on fire on this occasion. It will be hard to pick a favourite.
