*Selma Hayak in Gucci makes me actually love sequins and shine. Her dress may not be the most inventive but I think she looks gorgeous.

*Tilda Swinton in Haider Ackermann. Dude, you have got to give her mad fashion props. She looks F.I.E.R.C.E and makes a feminine color look almost masculine. Am I right?
*Reese Witherspoon in Zac Posen looks happy and she wears it well. Almost like Jessica Rabbit (in a good way), she looks sexy and classy. Tousled hair? I approve.

*Laura Dern's dress until she won her Golden Globe but I am really digging the green beaded jersey number. Who designed it? I couldn't tell you. Like I said, I missed her on the red carpet.
*Michelle Williams in Jason Wu. The reason I love this gown so much is that it is so different from everything that everyone else is wearing. Navy, velvet cutouts? Yeah, I didn't think I would love it that much either. I definitely feel her channeling Mia Farrow this go around.

Worst: *Kelly Osbourne in Zac Posen. I don't know if it's her purply gray hair or that the dress seems like it needed to be steamed a little more but I just think she looks off and not nearly as fabulous as she could. Not a win, Kelly.
*Sarah Michelle Gellar in Monique Lhuillier... gasp! This is not the way to make your red carpet comeback SMG. While I don't hate the blue and white dye effect that much, I just think this dress to puffy and had it been more fit and flare, I wouldn't detest it so much. It's just a lot. Zoom in and her makeup is all blue and sparkly too. Just not as classy as I would like...
.... and as much as I hate to do this, *Zooey Deschanel. From her side bangs, to the collar to the front of that dress... I get she was going for "cute, zany girl" but I don't understand the white/silvery collar to the lime green then I think olive green... and I know it's Prada, but I still don't like it.

I know I will get some heat for this but I am not feeling *Angelina Jolie's look this year. In her Atelier Versace, it's like the red was an afterthought and just thrown on. While I don't mind that she matched her purse and lips to the dress, why not wear the red shoes to boot? It almost seems disjointed without it. Yeah, I just think she has looked better and I don't understand why more fashionistas didn't question the taste of this... are we scared of Angelina? (a post for another day)
*Diana Agron, you are so cute, why the crazy red, lacy, ruffled, cutout concoction? It's just far too much. I am not familiar with Giles but I am not impressed.
Do you have your favorites that I am missing? Do you disagree with my best and worst?
I'd have to switch Tilda and Angelina. I love the top of Tilda's outfit, the jacket part, but I hate the skirt. I wish it were a pant suit, or a fuller a-line skirt in a less clingy fabric. The color is terrific though. As for Angie, I wish she had ditched the red purse and gone cream or metallic. Otherwise, I think she's a vision. It's nice to see her in something other than black.
ReplyDeleteI LOVED Claire Danes! Michelle Williams and Laura Dern too. I thought the red was fab on Reese, but just a LITTLE too tight in the tummy. I didn't think it was flattering from a side view. I actually didn't mind Angelina Jolie and Dianna Agron. Kelly Obsourne looked horrendous, but I honestly think it was mostly her hair. What is she thinking?! SMG - oh, I hate to say this, because I love my Buffy - but do not let your 2 year old daughter pick out your GG dress, no matter how cute she is when she says "Momma, wear this!" Ugh. On other notes: I liked Lea Michele's gown, even though she annoys me. And I thought Kate Beckinsale, Jessica Alba, Kate Winslet, and Jessica Chastain looked GORGEOUS!
ReplyDeleteI loved Claire Danes look! The back was fabulous! I also really liked Emma Stone but I have always loved her. I was a big fan of Kate Beckinsale's dress! I kind of liked Angelina's look. I think worse dress had to be Sarah Michelle Gellar (yuck!)
ReplyDeleteGreat pics for "best dressed"! I actually like Zooey Deschanel's look - somebody should have gotten rid of that collar, though!
ReplyDeleteI am SO happy you put Angelina Jolie on the "worst dressed". I think she has threatened to kill everybody in Hollywood - they all were acting like they were scared of her! I have always thought she was a weirdo!
Love this post! I agree, Claire and Selma took the cake. Kate Winslet never does wrong.
ReplyDeleteI love reading your recaps, because we're so right on and we're so far off. It happens every time. I thought Michelle Williams was adorable, but I couldn't stand the dress.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree with all of your comments on who was best & worst. Great blog coverage of the event's fashion :D

I am in love with the dress Clare is wearing. Yes ma'am talk about back & bum. She was by far one of the best dresses as you stated for sure. I will admit though, I'm not feeling the Tilda Swinton look at all, makes me think of David Bowie. I agree with all your other best/worst choices though & I think Jolie is a bit over rated so to see her on your worst list, I won't give you any heat for it ;-)
ReplyDeletethe only problem i have with angelina's dress is the color is too pale for her. if it were flipped (red dress from top to bottom, with a pink collar), i think we all may have felt differently about it?
ReplyDeleteoh and worst was most def SMG. and Kelly osbornes HAIR! what the? LOVE U!
