Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Best Of British Award
Carey Mulligan was very much flying the flag for Great Britain last night at the 2010 Film Independent Spirit Awards.

Our English Rose wore a Christopher Kane Fall 2010 leather dress fresh off the runway which I think was an amazing choice and perfect for this event.

I love the lace cap sleeves and the lace hem plus those stunning embellishments.

Her Rupert Sanderson Estelle cut-out satin heels were also British made

J’Adore the red lips.

Best Dressed Award
Zoe Kravtiz is very much the poster child for the Film Independent Spirit Awards, so it was not a surprise to see her grace the red carpet at the LA event.

What I did find surprising is how much I loved her look.

Normally I tired of her boho vibe, but if her Chloé Spring 2010 look is to be considered boho it was a least done in a modern, fresh, less contrived way.

Zoe was definitely one of my favourites of the night as she looked so soft and elegant.

Wash Out Award
Mia Wasikowska arrived on the red carpet at the 2010 Film Independent Spirit Awards wearing quite an edgy look.

Unfortunately it doesn’t work for me.

You may think I going to groan about the tights, but on this occasion I’m more disappointed with the colour of her Rodarte Fall 2009 dress.

The grey totally washes her out. Had she worn slightly more visible make-up this wouldn’t have been the case.

This is a shame because she’s one of the few I think could pull off Rodarte.

I also think she should’ve followed Carey Mulligan’s lead by freshening up her pixie haircut.

Best Modification Award
Vera Farmiga made the right choice at the 2010 Film Independent Spirit Awards.

As much as I love gowns on a red carpet, the Spirit Awards isn’t about that. It’s more casual, so I love that Vera shortened her Marchesa Resort 2010 red dress to make it more event appropriate.

I don’t however like her peep-toes as they almost blend into her skin-tone.

Yes it would’ve been too matchy matchy, but I would’ve preferred red heels on this occasion.

Maverick Award
Maggie Gyllenhaal arrived at the 2010 Film Independent Spirit Awards wearing Lanvin.

Maggie doesn’t conform to red carpet rules, she makes them up as she goes along.

As much as it’s my pet peeve to wear a dress without support, it would be impossible to wear a bra with this Lanvin Spring 2010 asymmetrical dress.

It would however be possible to wear this dress without tights. I guess with the thigh-high split Maggie didn’t want to feel too exposed, but then why wear the dress?

Despite that Maggie does look great, but I still feel that this Spring 2010 Lanvin collection always looks better on the runway than the red carpet.

It always looks so flat on the red carpet.

Dude Back Up & Please Shave Your Legs If You’re Not Gonna Wear A Gown Award
It’s sweet that Mr Mo’Nique is on the red carpet to support his wife, but dude back up so we can see her dress.

Yes he’s there to support her, yes he’s her rock, but it’s her time to shine so let’s see that dress and let him support you a few paces to the side.

It’s like Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise all over again.

From what I can see her beige Tadashi Shoji Spring 2010 dress is beautiful on her.

I like the length and those sparkling heels are gorgeous, but why OH WHY, would you wear a dress of this length if you’re not going to shave your legs?
