Screen Actors Guild Awards: A Starry Night!

by Angie Omata on January 28, 2008

The stars were definitely out in Hollywood last night. Being the first big show this year due to the writer’s strike, the SAG awards finally gave starved fans a glimpse of our favourite actors decked out in stunning red carpet looks.

Surprisingly, there didn’t seem to be too many “misses” this year since most of the celebs opted for classic couture looks. Two ladies who unfortunately didn’t get the memo were Sandra Oh, in her overly bow-dacious dress, and Jane Krakowski, in a moss green dress that resembled child’s mouldy arts and crafts project.

British Fashion Awards: The winners are…

by Michele Obi on November 28, 2007

We usually have something to say about the awards dished out at The British Fashion Awards – we generally tend to disagree – but this year all we have to say is “predictable”. Before we get going can we start by declaring that this year Agyness Deyn and Lily Allen looked gorgeous in Giles? We love the feathers!

Oscar Unfortunates…..

by Anna Rossiter on March 2, 2007

streep_oscars.jpgUnfortunately for every great gown choice on the red carpet, there were a couple of bad ones and whilst I didn’t feel there were too many style fatalities, the few that were spotted left me almost speechless. The most undesirable of the night had to be Meryl Streep in Prada. I can’t completely blame Ms Streep for this disaster, this concoction just wouldn’t look good on anyone, the length and shape are just plain wrong and the overall design is frumpy. However the decision to enhance the visual discomfort experienced by onlookers by adding the Native American style accessories was somebody’s doing! In all honesty it’s hard to recognise the Hollywood icon, especially after seeing her in The Devil wears Prada where she looked incredibly chic in every frame. Another misfortunate who didn’t quite live up to expectations was Kirsten Dunst, who failed to shine in Chanel couture, the style was unflattering and the use of extreme detail and feathering was more showgirl than starlet.

Oscar Winning Style….

by Anna Rossiter on March 2, 2007

Every bit the glamorous star Kate Winslet who was nominated for best actress, turned to Valentino for her winning gown for the evening. I especially love the floaty shape of this dress, the one shouldered detail projects an air of elegance typical of the British beauty, the pale green shade complimented her skin tone perfectly and the subtle accessorising really finished off the polished look. This is one lady who deserved her spot on the red carpet.

Cream of the crop

by Michele Obi on February 28, 2007

These days I find analysing red carpet dresses pretty tedious, everyone plays it so safe and when one star does attempt to be slightly fashion forward and take a risk they get criticised a hundred times over. Example? Jennifer Hudson in Oscar de la Renta. I just don’t agree with the masses on this one, her jacket was cute and complimented her figure. No doubt Andre Leon Talley, the man supposedly responsible for the apparent disaster that was her outfit won’t be asked to lend his efforts anytime soon, even if he is Anna Wintour’s right hand man.
