Cara Delevigne looked beautiful at the Cannes Film Festival wearing a plunging, floor-length Burberry gown for The Great Gatsby premiere, she teamed her look with glossy red lips and side-swept waves!
Sienna Miller’s BAFTA red carpet look this week is all things cute! She looked stunning in her Matthew Williamson fit and flare leaf-print blue dress. She teamed with a bit of attitude in spiked toe-cap Christian Louboutin heels and a top-knot bun.
Hitting the Good Morning America show, Kerry Washington worked a leather shift dress by Miss Wu which she topped a printed jacket by The Row. Teaming this outfit with a white cross-body bag by Jason WuandDaniele Michettiheels.
Emma Watson hit the red carpet for the premiere of her latest movie The Bling Ring in Cannes this week, stepping out in an elegant, floorlength, white silk Chanel gown from the Spring 2013 Couture collection. I love the black bodice detail on this! A simple bun and gentle make-up complete the look.
If anyone can do airport glamour, Cheryl Cole is up there, heading out to Cannes in style wearing a grey skater skirt by Markus Lupfer with a slouchy white tee with C emblem and adding a pop of colour with bright blue heels and Longchampbag.
After a long vacation from my blog - which I swear, it’s finished - I couldn’t help making my come back with a major red carpet event: the Met Gala Ball - not a case if it’s considered the Oscars of fashion.
This year the annual ball gave start to the exhibit ‘China: Through the Looking Glass’ and stars gathered in New York to show the most amazing and bizarre set of dresses you could imagine. In the last year, I must admit, I was bored by how few people dressed badly for such events, but the Met Gala is definitely the occasion in which celebrities show their worst - and I couldn’t be more pleased.
BEST DRESSED
You know I always prefer starting from the three best dressed and leave the juicy part at the end. It was pretty easy to choose, actually: most of the stars opted for dresses which were inspired by Chinese art and tradition, and this translated into costume and embarrassing moments most of the times - though Lady Gaga and Fan Bingbing showed on the red carpet in beautiful maxi kimonos. There were only few who nailed it, and these are my top 3.
Kendall Jenner in Calvin Klein Collection Every best dressed list needs at least one simple dress - that’s why I chose her instead of Bee Shaffer, beautifully dresses in a stunning burgundy Alexander McQueen gown. And usually the most simple and elegant dresses on the red carpet are by Calvin Klein collection - seriously, I realised there’s at least a CK gown in each one of my red carpet reports. Kendall is young, beautiful, one of the most successful models of the moment, and of course she couldn’t but choose a blingy dress with a sexy twist - the strings on the side showing the right amount of skin. Loved the turtleneck, which balances the naked parts. ★★★+
Sienna Miller in Thakoon Jacket + trousers is always a good idea for a very formal red carpet: it never gets old and you’re pretty sure very few people are going to wear it. That’s why I’m obsessed with this fringed ruby red Thakoon ensemble. The black elements make the colour pop and give a sophisticated aura. ★★★★+
Uma Thurman in Atelier Versace I don’t know if it’s the dress of if it’s Uma, I only know the combination of the two is just OUTSTANDING. She looked like a goddess coming from the sky to show us how mediocre we all are. It’s a pretty traditional choice for a red carpet event, and you all know I don’t really like traditional, but in this case everything is too right not to be noticed: the crisp white lights up the red carpet, the asymmetrical shape flatters the body, the draping gives lightness and elegance. I wanna be Uma Thurman, FML. ★★★★★
WORST DRESSED
All the celebrities condemned to hell and fire - and Sarah Jessica Parker’s outfit was definitely on topic. All the celebrities we love, after all, because they’re brave enough to wear something awful - or maybe they’re just not conscious of what they’re doing. Most of all, all the celebrities who, with their outfits, inspire the web to create the most hilarious memes of the moment. I have four special mentions for the bottom 3 list, the four outfits which were really close to gain this ambitious prize and yet they were surpassed by celebrities who literally throw themselves inside the closet to get dressed for the event: Jamie Bochert who went for a cheap hooker style, Madonna with her obsession in promoting her album, which made her choose an outfit stating REBEL HEART on the skirt (awful) and Grimes, sporting a little LEOPARD dress which you can definitely find at Primark for £9.99 and last but not least, Donatella Versace looking more and more like a a Afghan hound.
Sarah Jessica Parker in Philip Treacy hat and H&M dress She definitely won, together with Rihanna, the most exhilarating memes of the web for their crazy over-the-top outfits. It’s not even a problem of brand - after all, we had, during the past, celebrities rocking H&M’s dresses, from Natalie Portman to the US first lady Michelle Obama - and the bizarre headpiece she’s wearing could even be defined a piece of art - after all, it’s Philip Treacy’s. No, the problem is just that this black gown is TERRIFYING. It looks like some sort of rubbish bag with litter thrown over it. I love you, Carrie, but I’ve always preferred the other three girls of the bunch. ††††
Kerry Washington in Prada Kerry is one of the hottest actress now and Prada is one of my favourite brands. It couldn’t go wrong. Unfortunately the stylist who worked on this look managed to create a Frankenstein from scratch. The colour is horrendous on this silhouette, everything is too much, from the embroideries, to the glossy silk, to the maxi bows on the shoulders. For every red carpet event there’s a celebrity looking like a birthday cake, and this time, I’m sorry, it was Kerry. ††††
Zendaya in custom Fausto Puglisi Even if she didn’t make it to the memes - or at least, I haven’t seen it yet - she even managed to beat SJP. The top part is nice and sexy, but when you get to the skirt, here you have the problems. It’s sort of intimidating and frightening, looking like a UFO with mysterious signs on it and a long tale with patterns reminding of the Backgammon board. It looks heavy, old-fashioned, sort of a nice little dress turned into something suitable for a Halloween party. A cheap Halloween party. †††††
I say goodbye to you all, but not before sharing with you the most perfect meme human mind has ever created.
