  • Oscars 2008: The Looks That Stole the Show!
    Black and red appeared to be the popular colour of choice last night at the Oscars, which made for a lack lustre red carpet. But rather than focus on what the majority were wearing, let’s throw the spotlight on the outfits that, for better or worse, did make an impact. The award for the most unusual outfit of the evening went to Marion Cotillard (pictured above),...

  • Polls: Beyonce’s Grammy Look
    Why is Beyonce always hit or miss with her red carpet looks? She seems to inevitably show up in the sparkliest and tightest, over-the-top gowns she can get her hands on. Her look for the Grammys last night fit that gaudy mold to a tee. The glue-on glittery blue chiffon explosion made me cringe a little and had me wondering when she’s going to start wearing more classic...

  • Screen Actors Guild Awards: A Starry Night!
    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...

  • British Fashion Awards: The winners are…
    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…..
    Unfortunately 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...

  • Oscar Winning Style….
    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...

  • Cream of the crop
    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...

  • Elle Style Awards 2007
    With the madness of fashion week I totally overlooked the Elle Style Awards 2007 which took place last Monday at the Roundhouse in Camden, London. The stars came out in full force for the 10th year running to celebrate both fashion and style. Thandie Newton looked flawless as always and picked up best actress, Naomi Campbell won best model, Giles Deacon received best...

  • Golden Globes 2007
    I refrained from reviewing any of the looks yesterday from the Golden Globes, mainly because I was slightly put off by this pose from Beyonce. I don’t know how narcissistic someone must be to strike that kind of pose on the red carpet of all places, but it was distasteful to say the least. What did I think of her dress? It was a beautiful creation by Elie Saab but not...
