So the SAG Awards were last night (this morning) and oh finally a healthy does of dresses on the red carpet. I wasn't particularly floored by any dresses but above were the ones I really liked. Top prize goes to Amanda Bynes who's ditched her skanky minidresses and donned a stunning jewel toned Marchesa dress. Akin to Kate Hudson's gown, I'm not usually one for the Bohemian look, but they look gorgeous.Grey was a popular choice for the carpet, and Marion Cotillard carries it off best with her dove Nina Ricci. The contrast between the corset and the flowing ethereal chiffon layers of the skirt is breahtaking! Though usually I hate matchy-matchy I don't mind monochrome looks like Michelle Pfeiffer. I don't care if you show me her birth certificate but I cannot believe she is 50! Lastly, albeit a lack of makeup, Marcia Cross does look divine in that colour!
These looks... hmm... so-so. Becki Newton's dress is pretty in it's style. Look at the cutting of the layers and how they drape over each other so softly. But the colour is pretty blah. I'm so undecided for America Ferrera's Marchesa dress. Nice colour, pretty lace. But I can't help but feel that there is TOO much lace and the brooch on her shoulder gives it a gawdy finish. Cate Blanchett, stylish as per usual, but not that wowed.Olivia Wilde's dress was nice with the pleating, the halter and the toning at the end. For Vanessa, the yellow on red carpet is beginning to pall on me. It was a hit in 07 but... move on, let it go. And Angie... oh no! I've neveeeeer liked Ombre despite the numerous occasions I encountered it on the FW07 Runway (yes I mean you Miuccia!). The draping of the neckline is pretty though.
There are some dresses that are so horrifically mind-boggling but I'll be easy and just show you the nice ones. :)
Who do you think looked best?
