27.02.17 Runway To Red Carpet

Chrissy Teigen In Zuhair Murad Couture – 2017 Oscars

Chrissy Teigen wowed on the red carpet of the 2017 Oscars on Sunday night (February 26).

The model and wife of nominee John Legend wore a Zuhair Murad Spring 2017 Couture gown with dazzling accessories. 

Chrissy is never one to shy away from a ‘moment’, and it’s safe to say she’s giving us one tonight. I am in love with all the smart details of this gown. The bodice and sleeve peek-a-boo fabric, the ‘firework’ print created with crystals, even the belt is completely inspired.

I’m giving a big virtual high-five to Chrissy for this look–are you as into it as I am?

Kirsten Dunst In Christian Dior Couture – 2017 Oscars

Kirsten Dunst attended the 2017 Oscars on Sunday (February 26) in Hollywood, California.

Another ode to glamour in spades, the actress was lovely in a black Christian Dior Couture high-low gown that riffed on the design house’s New Look silhouette from the ’40s.

Frosted with diamond jewels including a necklace from Niwaka, the dress was likewise finished with a softer, romantic air in her relaxed updo with its curled tendrils.

Karlie Kloss In Stella McCartney – 2017 Oscars

Karlie Kloss was also in attendance at the 2017 Oscars on Sunday (February 26) in Hollywood, California.

The supermodel abided by her minimalist mantra and wore a Stella McCartney gown that achieved more striking presence with the cape detailing.

With a blue ribbon in support of ACLU pinned to her side, she also styled the look with a Roger Vivier Boite de Nuit Bracelet bag and Nirav Modi jewels

Given the high neckline and silhouette of the dress, the choker might have been a bit overkill.

Taraji P. Henson In Alberta Ferretti – 2017 Oscars

Taraji P. Henson made a striking turn down the 2017 Oscars on Sunday (February 26) in Hollywood, California.

Fierce took on new meaning with her midnight-sapphire Alberta Ferretti gown iced with a Nirav Modi bib necklace and a Jimmy Choo ‘Cloud’ clutch.

I love how the dark dress—seemingly black at first glance—had additional dimension by virtue of its hue.

From the perfect, off-the-shoulder plunge neckline to the just-high-enough slit, not to mention her voluminous, wavy bob and seductive smoky-navy eye, here we had another look that exuded a modern call to old Hollywood glam.

Head-turning and magnetic, this entrance saw Taraji at her gorgeous best.

Janelle Monae In Elie Saab Couture – 2017 Oscars

As we expected, Janelle Monae made a grand entrance at the 2017 Oscars on Sunday (February 26) in Hollywood, California.

Channeling the metallic mood she set at the Pre-Oscar Awards dinner, she wore an Elie Saab Fall 2016 Couture masterwork accessorized with Forevermark Diamonds.

Brimming with the intricacy of sparkling embellishment, a period silhouette, and a flock of the most fashionable birds, the gown took flight with all the drama we’d anticipate from Janelle, but with an all-new spirit that stepped outside her graphic, black-and-white box.

She even skipped her signature red lip and styled her hair into a precious, Jennifer Behr headband-topped pixie for another layer of fresh intrigue.

This could have translated as a heavy, overly wrought look but she commanded it with such lightness of form.

It took my breath away.
