Looks Of The Week

A round-up of my favourite fashions on the red carpet this week.

Jessica Alba looked glam at the 'Versace for H&M' event, wearing a black and gold flecked top and skirt, from the collection. Black tights and heels, a slick high bun and glossy red lips complete her outfit.

Gorgeous Brit model Cara Delevingne glitters at 'Harper's Bazaar Women of the Year Awards' in London. She wears a gold sequined dress by Burberry. Personally, I love that she added the grungy boots and black accessories. It prevents the look from being gaudy.

Selena Gomez looks adorable in a white tulle confection by Marchesa, along with embellished Casadei pumps. She play host at this year's MTV Europe Music Award's in Belfast.

Emma Stone was radiant in a green-tinged gold gown by Lanvin. The actress wore the silky pleated dress with grosgrain belt to 'Glamour's Women of the Year Awards' in New York.

Gwyneth Paltrow gleams in green at the Bambi Awards in Germany. She took my breath away in this fully beaded emerald gown by Elie Saab. But I'd want her to lose the heavy neckpiece.

Sofia Vergara ruled the green carpet at the 2011 Latin Grammy Awards. The brunette actress wore a beautifully beaded strapless ivory gown by Reem Acra.

Sugarland singer Jennifer Nettles chose an outstanding mint green gown for the Country Music Awards 2011. The delicately draped gown, glistening with crystals is by Naeem Khan. 

Byrdie Bell attended the 'Versace for H&M' event in New York City - not wearing Versace. I almost mistook the actress for Rachel Zoe, as she certainly looked the part. Her cream maxi dress is by Sportmax, which she wore with a black belt and cropped leather jacket. I do like her boho-biker-chic style.

Divas and Darlings - Emmy Awards 2011

Red Carpet Fashion

63rd Annual Emmy Awards 2011



Last night's Primetime Emmy Awards did not disappoint, with a vast range of gorgeous evening gowns worn by televisions biggest stars. It was exciting to see the multitude of different trends that emerged on the red carpet. No matter what's your style, I'm sure at least one of these gowns will enchant you as much as they have me. 



Romantic

Aubrey Plaza wears a beautiful white halter gown with ruffled neck and slight train, which is by Juan Carlos Obando. Jayma Mays is dreamy in a frilly rose-hued confection by Zuhair Murad. I like the girly combination of tulle and lace. Julia Stiles had me dazed with her stunning lavender lace couture gown by Georges Hobeika. Romantic side-swept waves completed her look. Rashida Jones is pretty in a pale pink strapless dress with belted waist by Alberta Ferretti. Cat Deeley is sensational in a gold flecked tulle ivory gown by Marchesa.

Red Haute

Kerry Washington strikes a pose in a scarlet couture gown with sheer sequined skirt by Zuhair Murad. Nina Dobrev is breathtaking in a fitted fiery red Donna Karan gown with origami upturned pleated skirt. With flawless hair and makeup, she is my choice for best dressed of the evening. Lea Michele radiates confidence in a crimson coloured Marchesa gown with rose-pleated sleeves.

Midnight Skies

Glee's Heather Morris donned a dramatic plunge-neck gown with ruffle-spun skirt. Her elevated upstyle is a tad much. Minka Kelly is poised in a navy blue long-sleeved lace dress with tiered skirt by Christian Dior. Reality star Kyle Richards takes on a modern Dynasty look in an extravagant blue pleated gown by Ines DiSanto. British actress Emily Blunt wore a textured inky blue gown with plunging neck by Elie Saab.

Embellished Earthy Tones

Mad Men's Christina Hendricks wore a curve-hugging silver Johanna Johnson gown garnished with Swarovski crystals and intricate beadwork. Mad Men's other leading lady, Elisabeth Moss opted for a nude illusion gown with ornate gold embroidery by Marchesa. Anna Faris wore a fully embellished bronze column gown. Dexter's Jennifer Carpenter glistens in a nude tulle embellished gown with thigh-high split by Tony Ward.

Simple Elegance

Bonnie Bentley is casual in a colour-blocked pleated gown by BCBG Max Azria. Katie Holmes chose a simple cobalt blue Calvin Klein dress with halter neck and metallic belt. Kate Winslet wears two major trends of the evening - red and a plunging neckline. Her dress is Elie Saab Resort 2012. Glee's Naya Rivera is sophisticated in a classic black fitted gown.

Beautiful in Black 

Game of Throes actress Lena Headey exudes elegance in long-sleeved belted gown with high round neck. I love how her unpretentious look trumps so many of the more elaborate gowns. Broadwalk Empire's Kelly MacDonald wears a fitted black gown with sheer print bodice and sleeves. Maria Menounos sparkles in black cap-sleeved sequined Emanuel Ungaro gown. She is another star who wears the side swept hair trend. Rachel Evan Wood wears a dress that's quite similar to Maria's. Her beaded gown with bateau neck is by Elie Saab.

Bedazzled

Claire Danes wears a sparkly tonal blue gown by Oscar de la Renta. Emmy Award winner Julie Bowen's silver and black beaded dress is also by Oscar de la Renta. TV anchor Brooke Anderson is dressed in a forest green one-sholdered gown sprinkled with sequins. Is that side swept waves yet again? Charlie's Angel's Rachel Taylor wears a dusky pink gown by Giorgio Armani, which is adorned in pearlescent sequins and beaded fringing. It's refreshing to see a star on the red carpet with a short bob.

Asymmetrical

Modern Family's Sarah Hyland is gorgeous in a salmon silk organza pleated gown with crystal encrusted waistband by Christian Siriano. The Big Bang Theory's Kaley Cuoco is cute in a Romona Keveza cocktail dress covered in sheer printed net. She added red accessories with Giuseppe Zanotti peep-toes and a Judith Leiber clutch. Sofia Vergara knows how to work a mermaid silhouette. The Latin beauty displays a stunning coral crepe Vera Wang gown with pleated draped detail. Aimee Teagarden's black silk shantung taffeta gown with asymmetrical neck and hem is by Romona Keveza.

Brights

Cobie Smulders stood out in a serene aqua gown with knotted sleeves by Alberta Ferretti. The How I Met Your Mother actress wears a major trend of the night - pleats. Olivia Munn's glaring green jacquard gown with matching leather belt is by Carolina Herrera. Dianna Agron's brazen blue silk dress with high draped neck and flowing train is by Roksanda Ilincic.

A Plum Affair

Friday Night Lights actress Jurnee Smollett is alluring in an aubergine Pamela Roland gown. She follows the night's trends by wearing side-swept waves and pleats. English actress Jessica Brown-Findlay wears a well-fitting long-sleeved eggplant gown with key-hole cut-out. Charlie's Angels actress Annie Ilondzeh chose a strapless silk gown in a luscious plum colour. She wears a popular designer of the night, Romona Keveza. Melissa Rauch from TV's Big Bang Theory dons an interesting violet ombre tulle gown. Kelly Osbourne's burgundy fishtail gown is by J.Mendel. A great fit on her but the lavender hair ages her by years.

Clouds Amongst the Stars

Paz de la Huerta - her peach chiffon gown could have been passable if you eliminate the extreme tan, disheveled hair-do, lilac lipstick and sinister stare. Padma Lakshmi - I would have liked to see in any other colour besides olive oil. Gwyneth Paltrow's dress feels like it's missing something - like a middle. This would have been a pretty look had it been complete. Julianna Margulies - I'd prefer her white column gown without the strategically placed crystal baubles, which somehow cheapen her look. Heidi Klum - I get that her dress is avant-garde but it looks like she's carrying a coral reef around with her.

New York Fashion Week Favourites 2011 - Part Two

New York Fashion Week 

Spring/Summer 2011-12

The second installment to my favourite collections of NYFW 2011. 

Jenny Packham

No season of Gossip Girl is complete without a Jenny Packham dress. And it's easy to see why. The British designer's Spring 2012 collection melds sequins into floaty chiffon with a result that is graceful and feminine. Sheer fluid gowns were presented in delectable shades of lemon, mint, aqua, orange and cherry. There was a focus on asymmetrical tops and hems, soft pleating, as well as low v-necks and floral embellishments. Models were styled with cross-ankle strap sandals, crimson lips and pin straight hair. 

Badgely Mischka

 The imaginative duo at Badgely Mischka set a florid and sugary tone for Spring 2012. What I love most about this collection is the vivid use of texture. Sculptural gowns were enriched with opulent fabrics like shantung, brocade, beaded chiffon and organza. Candy-store colours glazed the runway in fuchsia, purple, citrons and turquoise, then mellowed into softer shades. Satin bow belts clinched-in waists, while flounces and frilled hems added weight to the saccharine dresses. A delightful collection for anyone with a sweet tooth.

Elie Tahari

Amidst all the chaos of elaborate and overstated collections, I found tranquility in the designs of Elie Tahari. He looked to ancient Egypt as an inspiration, which is visible through the placid colour scheme. Desert sandy beiges and stone, sunset oranges, blue oases and Cleopatra-tinged gold mesh. Work-wear is given a glamourous edge with sheer cuffed harem pants, double-breasted suit blazers, silky shirt dresses and flared pants. Metallic gold belts were an essential accessory, as well as gorgeous strappy gladiator sandals. This is an effortless range that truly defines casual elegance.

Marchesa

 Marchesa does tulle unlike any other. Georgina Chapman and Karen Craig's signature fairytale touch was seen throughout their Spring 2012 collection. The pair were inspired by the beauty of the sea, more specifically, the 1876 painting of Russian artist Ilya Repin, called Sadko in the Underwater Kingdom. Voluminous gowns were sumptuously enveloped in tulle and chiffon, shaded in lavender grey, pearl white and caramel nudes. A fair amount of fringing and feathers also made its way down the runway. Although completely impractical, I love how this collection provides a magical kind of escapism.

Naeem Khan

 Another ornate and impressive collection by Mumbai-born designer Naeem Khan. Each outfit makes a bold statement; whether it's with metallic stripes, bright colour, floral prints, feathered hems or shimmering beadwork. Naeem's wife, Ranjana designed the exotic pieces of jewellery paired with each outfit. I like how the silhouettes varied from fitted to ballgown to flowing kaftans. Khan presented a glamourous range of gowns that are extravagant without being over the top. 

 Jill Stuart

 Jill Stuart's Spring reverie for 2012 is a sublime collection of feminine outfits. I love the combination of sorbet shades that harmoniously blend together. Lemonade and lavender, peppermint and peach; It's fresh and unexpected. I haven't seen anything like this in fashion week. There were plenty of shorts and pleated knee-length skirts in this girly-glam collection. Stuart made use of interesting and unusual prints, like palm trees, birds, cherry blossoms and Japanese doll-like designs. Tousled hair and, kohl line eyes and rose-tinted lips completed the doll house experience.

Divas and Darlings - Bafta Brits to Watch Event

Red Carpet Fashion 

Bafta Brits to Watch Event 2011



The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, aka William and Kate attended the Bafta 'Brits to Watch' Dinner on Saturday in Los Angeles. Hollywood stars aligned the red carpet at the Belasco Theatre to meet the royal pair. These are the fashion highlights.



Asymmetrical

Elizabeth Banks went white in gown by Versace. Large gold buttons baring the Versace emblem held her dress together at the shoulder and split. Strappy matt gold platforms, a gold clutch and cuff finished her look.

Jennifer Garner wore a navy blue satin gown with slight draping. I'm finding the bodice too baggy on her.

Anna Kournikova, who I haven't seen in ages on the red carpet, followed the asymmetrical trend in a teal toga gown by Tadashi Shoji. She walked in high metallic gold heels.





Lights

Zooey Deschanel chose a tea-length dress by Oscar de la Renta. The organza dress with scalloped hem dress was fully embroidered in gold. She wore matching ankle strap pumps.

Blake Lively was angelic in Marchesa. The blonde star wore a flowing ice grey gown with pearl and bead embellishing on the hem and neckline. Her stunning silver heels are by Christian Louboutin.

Elizabeth Moss opted for a simple nude pleated dress by J Mendel. Her Lauren Merkin clutch matched the dress quite precisely.

Brights

Jennifer Lopez was form-fitting in a forest green gown by Emilio Pucci. Her toned physique was shown off with cutouts. She carried a Lena Erziak clutch that matched her gold embellished sleeve.

British actress with a very South African name, Gugu Mbatha-Raw looked divine in royal blue. This is my favourite look of the evening. Her draped gown with embellished sleeves is by Reem Acra.

Mary Louise Parker blended into the red carpet wearing Dolce & Gabbana. This is such a lovely gown, the floral cosage on the empire waistband keeps it fun.





Pastels

Nicole Kidman was statuesque in an alice blue Elie Saab gown. Her fully beaded gown was toned down with a silver grey satin clutch.

Honourary guest, Duchess Kate Middleton looked sweetly splendid in a lilac gown by Alexander McQueen. She held a metallic Jimmy Choo clutch.

Cat Deeley wore a dreamy blue low-waisted halter neck dress with lace panels, which is by Christian Dior.

Marchesa Resort 2012

The design duo at Marchesa know how to make a girl look fabulous. Their glamourous take on Resort Wear 2012 pays tribute to this. Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig were inspired by movies and books from the 1960's whilst creating this very wearable collection. Swinging chiffons in sorbet shades, Grecian style gowns with a retro twist and simple embellishings to tie it all together. 

The colour palette progressed from minted green to lemonade, coral to magenta. I adore the grey and black leopard print dresses.

White goddess gowns were trimmed with gold embroidery, detailed necklines a focal point. These gowns are fit for the elegant and understated modern bride.

Looks of The Week

My Best & Worst Fashion Picks of the Week

Top Three

Diane Kruger stunned at the Amfar Inspiration Gala in Paris. The actress wore a crimson draped gown with plunging neckline by Yves Saint Laurent. She even matched her lipstick to her dress. I just wish she did something other than the ballerina hair bun.



Sofia Vergara attended the Harry Winston Midnight Timepiece launch in New York City. The Columbian actress was splendid in a white lace 'Mia' dress from Marchesa's Bridal Fall 2011 collection. The bodice has a folded over peplum design. Sofia wore champagne satin slingbacks by Giuseppe Zanotti.



Model and actress Molly Sims wears a pretty chiffon maxi dress in lavender by Alice + Olivia. She added a skinny belt and flat sandals to her summer Hampton's holiday look.





At The Bottom

Fergie was also in Paris at the Amfar Inspiration Gala. Some people are taking this 'Black Swan' style thing too far. The Black Eyed peas singer was ready to take flight in a furry black leather coat, black shorts, black bodysuit, black tights and black cage boots. Might I add - she's wearing fur in Spring.



Heidi Klum wore a printed Tibi dress with bright green tights and royal blue YSL heels. Tights this green should only be worn at Christmas time, that too, only by Santa's elves. 



Busy Phillips won 'Best Supporting Actress' at the Critics Choice Television Awards on Monday. The styling of her blue Juan Carlos Obando watercolour dress is too kindergarten. There's the flounced hem, with the schoolgirl side plait and candy green arm accessories. Then there's the sandals with the ankle monitor bracelets. Definitely a 'crime' of fashion.

Divas and Darlings - CFDA Fashion Awards 2011

Red Carpet Fashion

CFDA Fashion Awards 2011



The CFDA Awards were held in New York this week, where designers were honoured for their exceptional contribution to fashion. Marc Jacobs took home the 'Lifetime Achievement Award', whilst Celine's Phoebe Philo won 'Best International Designer'. 'Womenswear Designer of the Year' was awarded to Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough of Proenza Schouler. The award for best merging womenswear designer went to one of my current favourites, Prabal Gurung.



I get pretty excited about these type of awards shows, as the sole focus is placed on excellence in fashion design. Designers showcase their best designs on their preferred model or actress of choice. It is a celebration of beautiful creations and an appreciation for the art of style. It was impossible to put up pictures of all the outfits, but I have posted the most impactful looks from the evening. This is red carpet fashion at its best. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.



The Supermodels

Dutch model Doutzen Kroes wore a raspberry red one-sleeve gown by J Mendel. Czech export Karolina Kurkova dons a shimmery fern green wrap dress by Diane von Furstenberg. The hoodie is an interesting touch but those strappy heels have got to go. Czech model Hana Soukopova wears an embellished off-white gown with asymmetrical frilled hem by Marchesa. This reminds me of Halle Berry's Oscar 2011 dress. Australian model Miranda Kerr looks gorgeous in a slinky black cut-out gown by Michael Kors. Head to toe, this look is perfection. Brazil's Alessandra Ambrosio is beautiful in a red v-neck Prabal Gurung gown.

Precious Pearls

Pearl tones were a major trend on the purple carpet. American Italian model Elettra Wiedemann wore a wispy chiffon pleated gown by J Mendel. French beauty Anais Mali wore a creamy satin dress with sheer long-sleeves by Sophie Théallet. Katie Cassidy was sweetly simple in an embroidered dress with uneven hemline by Iranian born designer Behnaz Sarafpour. Victoria's Secret model Angela Bellotte is celestial in a white low-neck gown Grecian gown. Whitney Port chose an ivory Pamella Roland dress with floral beading on the shoulder.

Bright Young Things

Ashley Greene wore a neon pink and black mini by Michael Kors. She seems underdressed for this event. Tunisian model Kenza Fourati wears a billowing maxi dress by Marc Bouwer. The sapphire blue colour works incredibly with her skin tone. Emmanuelle Chriqui is a spectacular sight in David Meister. She chose a citron yellow strapless mini with chiffon train. Love the pairing of the purple bejeweled Manolo Blahniks. Chanel Iman chose a kaftan-style keyhole gown in sea green by Max Azria. Mum-to-be Jessica Alba wore a salmon and mauve ensemble by Diane von Furstenberg.

Black and White

Kirsten Dunst took on the menswear trend in Patrik Ervell. The styling is too stuffy. Chloe Sevigny wore an unusual combination of black leather and white lace from her Opening Ceremony line. I don't like those slipper-like shoes. Leelee Sobieski also chose a masculine suit, hers by Adam Kimmel. It may be classy for the office, not a fashion gala. 90210's Shenae Grimes is dressed in a lace corset and black trousers by Rebecca Taylor. Ethiopian supermodel Liya Kebede chose a halter-neck black and white dress by Derek Lam.

Dismally Disillusioned

Namibian model Behati Prinsloo wears a shaded blue mess - there's a difference between 'vintage' and 'antique'. I'm not fond of Liv Tyler's Proenza Schouler outfit because of the kaleidoscope/lego print. Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen wear their own line, The Row mixed with some Chanel. I really don't get these two, they are the only ones carrying large satchels with evening wear. Actress Amber Heard wears a sheer beige overlay dress. The black embroidered bodice looks like a nasty rash and the shoes and belt don't add up. Marcia Cross looks fantastic for her age but this sparkly grey Pamella Roland jumpsuit just isn't inappropriate.

Somebody Call 911

The fashion police have to be alerted about these looks. Socialite Julie Macklowe has been swallowed by a slimy green swamp. Why would someone make this dress? British heiress Daphne Guinness's look is incohesive. She overstyled what was an elegant mini dress by Abed Mahfouz. I always mistaken Lady Gaga for a drag queen. Must be the hair, or the makeup, or the dress or the monster heels, or everything.

Divas and Darlings - MTV Movie Awards 2011

Red Carpet Fashion

MTV Movie Awards 2011



The 20th Annual MTV Movie Awards took place in California last night. Once again, Twilight wiped out all the competition, winning 5 major awards including Movie of the Year. Sad, I know. Fashion on the red carpet was quite uninspiring but nonetheless - these are my best and worst picks of the night's outfits.



Interesting Mini's

Selena Gomez wore a photoprint top and two-tone skirt with taupe ruching by Giambattista Valli. She accessorized with multi-hoop gold earrings, a white clutch and ivory Casadei heels. Leighton Meester brought on the bling in a mirrored grey long-sleeved dress by Balmain. She wore Pierre Hardy sandals with it. Emma Watson was elegant in a white silk Marchesa mini with embroidered sleeves and neckline. Silver brain Atwood heels completed her look. Emma Stone won the award for Best Comedic Performance in the movie 'Easy A'. She wore a black lace dress with yellow underlay by Bottega Veneta. She added orange to the mix with a clutch bag and Casadei satin pumps.

Vibrant Colours

Aimee Teagarden wore an invigorating one-shoulder wrap dress by Alice + Olivia. Blake Lively's fitted electric blue dress is by Michael Kors. A nice addition of colour with the indigo suede shoes. Nina Dobrev chose a strapless red dress by Georges Chakra. I'm undecided about the gold bow detailing. 13 year old Elle Fanning was adorable in a pink floral D&G romper. She paired it with floral D&G wedges. 

Animal Print

Lily Collins (who is the latest love interest of Taylor Lautner) attended the awards in D&G. She looked gorgeous in this grey and black animal print dress. She added gold accessories and peep-toe buttoned heels by Christian Louboutin. Reese Witherspoon received the MTV Generation Award in a cheetah print dress by Zac Posen. This look lacks something. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is smoking in a fitted tiger-print dress by D&G. Her beige and black patent sandals are by Sergio Rossi.

Fashionably Disabled 

Crystal Reed wore black and white waves by Ina Soltani. It looks like crepe paper flowers were attached to the hem. What looks like beadwork on Kristen Stewart's Balmain mini, is actually safety pins, tons of them. Imagine going through airport security with this dress on. The real reason Gossip Girl's Jessica Szohr was banished from the Upper East Side is this awful paisley jumpsuit. Amanda Bynes forgot that an actual dress goes over her shapewear. Those turquoise fringed boots should also be banished from the east side, west side and any other red carpet event.

Stylista of the Week - Lucy Liu

Lucy Liu

Stylish Star of the Week



Lucy Liu spent the week promoting the animated movie 'Kung Fu Panda 2', to which she lends her voice. The actress chose to wear knee-length dresses with belted waists in monochromatic colours. She also kept her looks simple by not wearing any jewellery.

For the Los Angeles movie premiere, Lucy wore a strapless white Marchesa dress with layers of uneven tiers. She paired it with a skinny black belt and nude Jimmy Choo heels.

In NYC, Lucy stepped out in a black Antonio Berardi jacquard dress. The low white collar neckline and full skirt prevented this dress from looking too matronly. She carries a fabulous cerise pink Roger Vivier clutch. Take a closer look at the cute color block heel on her strappy Casadei sandals.
 



Lucy wore white again at a different NYC event during the week. She looked chic in a simple Givenchy sheath dress, with a wide mirrored belt by Michael Kors. She holds a two-tone clutch bag by Roger Vivier. Her nude heels are by Jimmy Choo.

A Fashionable Weekend at Cannes

Weekend Red Carpet Fashion 

at the Cannes Film Festival 2011



The Young and Stylish

Young and upcoming actresses sported casual elegant looks this weekend at Cannes. 

Shorter silhouettes were popular. 

 Alexa Chung wore a long-sleeved white dress by Balenciaga, teamed with black pumps. My style star of the moment, Mia Wasikowska in pretty in a pale pink lace dress by Valentino. Clemence Poesy is sweet in a baby blue off-the-shoulder dress with a darker blue pair of suede sandals. Her loose waves add to the romantic feel of this dress. Astrid Berges-Frisbey wears an off-white lace Chanel dress with sliver beading on the hem and sleeves. Her black patent shoes were not the best choice for the dress. Another simple but elegant look from Mia. She wears a pleated silk Alberta Ferretti dress in creamy beige. 

Dramatic Divas

A few gowns that were attention grabbing and over the top.

Li Bing Bing wore a Cinderella-esque ballgown by Georges Chakra. I don't like the contrasting white feathered fabric with the pale blue teepee tulle skirt. Penelope Cruz chose a bejeweled lilac gown with tulle sleeves and train by Marchesa. L'oreal model Sonam Kapoor looked futuristic in a one-shoulder Jean Paul Gaultier gown. The black and white gown is covered with an obtrusive mesh net. I wonder if she should sit down in this dress.

Queen of Cannes

Chinese actress and international style icon Fan Bing Bing is one of the best dressed stars at the Festival this year. She is known for choosing high end couture designers and always looks so poised on the red carpet.

Fan brings back old Hollywood glamour in an elegant white Elie Saab gown with long lace shawl and Ferragamo clutch bag. For her next red carpet look, Fan chose a textured ombre gown by Atelier Versace that fades from violet to light lavender. The entire skirt is covered in tiny chiffon ruffles. At the 'Wu Xia' premiere, Fan wore Atelier Versace once again. Her silk organza mermaid gown has four layers that graduate from dark to ice pink. See the original versions of both Versace gowns at this post.

Pirates of the Caribbean 4 Premiere

Movie Premiere Fashion

Pirates of the Caribbean 4:

On Stranger Tides



Disneyland in Anaheim, California was abuzz with celebs at the highly anticipated Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides premiere.

Top Row



Pirates' newcomer, Astrid Berges-Frisbey wore an off-the shoulder ruffled dress from Chanel Couture. The pairing with black shoes is an odd choice.

Actress Vanessa Branch looks feminine in a 50's style silk print dress with A-line skirt.

Ashley Benson chose an embellished Alice + Olivia mini, which tiered into tiny frills.

Eva Longoria went white in a sleeveless dress by Cushnie et Ochs. Love the addition of coral with sparkly earrings and Brian Atwood pumps.

Emerson Rose (daughter of Teri Hatcher) is sparkly in an emerald green number.

Shay Mitchell is kilted up in a cute tartan mini by Katherine Kidd.



Bottom Row



Eliza Dushku wore a cream and black lace dress by Betsy Johnson. 

Star of the latest Pirates' movie, Penelope Cruz is feathery in Marchesa.

Ashley Tisdale brightens up the black carpet in a lacey one-shoulder mini by Brian Lichtenberg.

The always classy Emma Roberts wears a black strapless Stella McCartney dress with statement necklace by Saloni. 

Lacey Schwimmer from Dancing with the Stars chose a floaty cream chiffon dress.

Vanessa Hudgens wears a daring black wrap dress with thigh-high slit by Vintage Quorum.
