    Yeah nothing really show stopping there at all! Emily Blunt looked like she was off to the debs with that dress!

    Funny, Emily Blunt's dress is actually the only one I like there.

    Critics Choice is never amazing, dresswise IMO.
    I liked Alison Janney again, it was a very fresh and comfy looking outfit!

    Absolutey love Emma Willis' caped dress.
    Caroline Flack is wearing shorts - ooh, how quirky! Same gimmick for years now!
    Stacey Dooley's dress looks all out of proportion - the length is funny and the very low strapless neckline does nothing for her IMO. Too fitted for pockets to sit right, too.
    Rachel Adedeji looks fantastic - a simple formula that works.
    Helen Flanagan's dress is stunning - what has she done to her face though?
    The TOWIE girls look like they like a bit of surgery and fillers, too.
    Love the colour of Darcey Bussell's dress.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,485 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    I like Holly's dress but her hair looks messy

    Darcey Bussell looked fab in purple

    Lots of fabulous looks at the SAGs! Will have to do a proper look at lunch.

    Margot Robbie in Chanel, I think she looks amazing!

    Wow Margot looked stunning!
    Loved Mandy Moore's dress, too.
    Not a crazy fan of Emily Blunt's dress - neither the shape nor the colour did it for me.
    Also liked Patricia Clarkson (I love a dramatic sleeve!)
    I thought Lupita Nyongo had got it very right, as usual, in a light coloured feathered dress - but no, it wasn't her! She wore a weird black jacket and shiny jewelled skirt combo that missed the mark! Danai Gurira was the feathered lady - my favourite look of the night.

    I loved the train on Olivia Colman's dress.
    I thought Kate Middleton's dress was beautiful but quite the most Jenny Packman-esque Alexander McQueen dress I've ever seen.
    Absolutely hate Amy Adams dress - I rarely love anything she wears, but this looks so stiff and matronly and the colour is quite dull and there's so much fussy detail (the big brooch reminds me of that episode of Friends where Phoebe spilt something on her dress for an event and attached a big Christmas decoration thing to cover it!), plus a snakeskin clutch bag :o ... the centre parting doesn't work for me either :D
    Elanor Tomlinson's look is my favourite of what I've seen - stunning.

    Oh for any age she looked stunning - the shoes made me do a double take though, they're about a foot high! More power to her for being able to wear them ;)

    In Ralph & Russo. Don't know when I last checked the name of a designer, but that is one of the most exquisite dresses I have ever seen in my whole life.

    The Grammys had a mixed bag but I did like Dua Lipa in Versace

    Regarding Dua Lipa. She does look stunning there alright. I have to say I never even heard of her before last night and can't say her song was up to much either. But fair play to her.

    I thought Lady GAGA looked good and she sang the best song on the night too.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    The Brits were last night

    I liked Winnie Harlow, her dress is by Elie Saab

    Love Elie Saab - remember the stunning dress Halle Berry wore when she won the Oscar for Monster's Ball?

    Giuliana looks skeletal again, you can see every bone in her back & shoulder. Hair is fab tho!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,186 ✭✭✭dee_mc


    Mark Ronson looks cool, love the retro tux.
    Midnight blue is stunning on Octavia Spencer, and her hair is beautiful.
    I really like Regina King's dress - it's somewhat like the one a member of Little Mix (the blonde one) wore to the BRITs the other night, but not at all trashy looking. Very classy and the pure white is so fresh.
    Melissa McCarthy's outfit is cool and fits her well but I kind of wish the bodice/blouse was less white - I get that it's a play on a tux but a think a stronger colour, maybe oyster, would've been more striking. Maybe it's just the light. Still, as always, I do love a cape situation!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,186 ✭✭✭dee_mc


    How is Angela Bassett 60? She looks incredible.
    Glenn Close looks fabulous in gold too - the older ladies are winning for me so far!
    Not loving Gemma Chan's pink frou-frou gown - I'm never a fan of that type of look though.

    And as always there were a good few guys in Tom Ford absolutely crushing it:

    Didn't watch the show but I saw some photos. One or two pink gowns can be lovely, half of red carpet in pink is nauseating. I don't mind dresses that show less flesh but it's a relief that London and Milan fashion weeks featured a bit more skin. When Maia Rudolph wears high neck, long sleeve dress that looks like it was made from one curtain and is then draped in another curtain I think we reached peak modesty wear.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,186 ✭✭✭dee_mc


    Maia Rudolph's dress was hideous, and the hair and makeup did nothing for her. There's modesty and then there's that monstrosity.
    Makes you wonder what other dresses she was offered!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,624 ✭✭✭✭meeeeh


    I thought Charlize Theron looked stunning. And I liked Gemma Chan's dress. Michelle Yeoh also looked nice. I'm sure there is more but I haven't look through many photos yet.

    I loved all the pink! It's not a colour that suits me at all, but I think we'll be seeing a lot of it in the shops for the summer.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,624 ✭✭✭✭meeeeh


    I don't dislike pink. But for me it's the color that needs to be used sparingly. There were quite a few dresses that were lovely but when you see them all together it makes me feel like I was transported into Barbie world. I thought Kiki Layne's dress complimented her skin tone lovely. Gemma Chan's pockets were just cool, there were quite a few nice dresses but a lot less interesting ones. I thought men had more fun with their outfits. It helps that black men can look cool in anything.

    Edit: just to ad that Kendall Jenner has bigger following on Instagram than were the viewership numbers for Oscars. If anyone was worried that 'Kardashian and proud' style disappeared there is no need to worry.

    The Met Gala is tonight, theme is "Camp"

    Lady GaGa has gone back to her own unique bonkers style from serious award nominated actress :P

    Gaga just nailed it, I love her! And as for Billy Porter... Damn!!

    Also loved Celine Dion, Michael Urie, Kacey Musgraves, Ezra Miller, Janelle Monae.

    Karlie Kloss and Joshua Kushner could not have been more boring, so disappointing!

    Sorely missed Madonna, SJP and Blake Lively.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,186 ✭✭✭dee_mc


    Halsey, Naomi Watts and Michelle Williams are my favourites. Really glam.
    I liked elements of Zendaya and Mandy Moore's dresses. Kristin Cavallari's dress was a beautiful idea but the seams on the lower part are absolutely shocking! Very poorly finished.
    Least favourite look goes to Gwendoline Christie - ceremonial Gucci robes aside, her hair looked crunchy and in need of a good wash, her makeup was caked on, she had daytime mascara on one eye and nighttime mascara on the other :D , no definition to the brows and that matte lip could not have been removed without a few tears. Not great. Probably still better than what I'd achieve for a night out of course.
    Maya Jama was one of my unexpected favourites this time - she always seems to end up on the "worst dressed" lists but her dress last night really suited her!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,775 ✭✭✭SmallTeapot


    I liked Jodie Comers dress. Simple tailoring but beautiful.

    image.jpg



    Likewise for Phoebe Waller-Bridges' dress

    image.jpg


    I loved Emilia Clarkes dress the most of all, however, I wish the upper pieces of fabric (for the bust) were a big wider.....or not a low-cut to the waist. Her hair and make-up was on point, however.
    image.jpg


    Maisie Williams and Naomi Watts also rocked beautiful black gowns. The asymmetric hem style of Maisie William's dress was a nice touch. :)

    image.jpg









    Yeah, I agree dee_mc, Gwendoline Christies' dress was......eh.....interesting.I'm lost for words, really :confused:

    image.jpg


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,624 ✭✭✭✭meeeeh


    Gwendoline Christie's dress was out there but I like that. Carice van Hauten also wore interesting dress. Yes there were prettier dresses around but at least 3 versions of red/pink combo don't exactly say much about creativity.

    Among less dramatic dresses I liked Sophie Turner's and Maisie Williams's dress. Laverne Cox and whoever wore that green dress also looked great. In general black people look so much better in anything.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,485 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Laura Linney, Kristen Bell, Isla Fisher and Michelle Williams looked stunning
