2009 Oscars Red Carpet Best and Worst Dressed
February 23, 2009 by Ehmonie Hainey · 2 Comments
The 2009 Academy Awards red carpet saw a lot of winter white gowns. Anne Hathaway looked gorgeous in a diagonal pailette-patterned strapless Armani Privé gown and Roger Vivier clutch. Oscar nominee Taraji P. Henson looked stunning in an ivory Roberto Cavalli gown and Mary Norton clutch. The Wrestler co-star Evan Rachel Wood wore a beautifully draped Elie Saab Couture gown. Marisa Tomei was absolutely breathtaking in her white Versace gown that just arrived this morning! Miley Cyrus looked like an elegant young stunner in her Zuhair Murad gown that she claimed weighed ‘100,000 pounds’. She completed the look with a Mary Norton clutch and BCBG heels.
As always, there were a few red carpet misses. Jessica Biel wore a very unflattering strapless duchesse satin Prada gown with a huge bow and flap down the front which mushroomed out her curvy shape. Tilda Swinton looked eerily drab in a tan ruched blouse/black skirt comboby Lanvin. Slumdog Millionaire star Freida Pinto did nothing to accentuate her beauty with this blue beaded one-shoulder gown by John Galliano. Beyonce opted for her usual mermaid-style gown but this year’s choice was a black House of Dereon dress with a gold-gilded flower print that left her looking more like drapery than red carpet couture.

Haute Off the Red Carpet: the 66th Annual Golden Globe Awards
January 11, 2009 by Ehmonie Hainey · 3 Comments
Stars shined on the 66th Annual Golden Globes red carpet. Kate Beckinsale looked stunning in a sleek white J. Mendel gown that could easily be worn as a chic wedding dress.
Drew Barrymore looked astonishing and all grown up with a Marilyn Monroe hairstyle and a haute pale blue silk organza Dior gown.
Eva Mendes also looked amazing in Dior wearing a strapless white gown with a surprisingly flattering oversized bow down the front right side. A tiered turquoise choker accented the dress and her skin tone beautifully.
Beyonce wore her usual beaded creation but looked gorgeous as always with a diamond choker and her hair pulled back in a simple chignon.
Demi Moore and date, hubby Ashton Kutcher looked mismatched as they always do, but Moore looked pretty in a salmon pink dress with a crisscross neckline.
What were they thinking? With all of the stylists and designers clamoring to dress celebrities, I always wonder why some wind up on the red carpet looking like this! Here are the night’s fashion misses:
Anne Hathaway’s Giorgio Armani Privé royal blue silk gazar strapless gown, embroidered with Swarovski crystals looked bland against her pale skin and red lip and the absence of jewelry elongated her neck, giving her an overall look and feel of a peacock.
Maggie Gyllenhaal’s one-shoulder leopard print Lanvin dress didn’t follow the ‘less-is-more’ fashion rule. The print, mixed with the poufy shoulder plus the belt resulted in an overdone red carpet look.
Jennifer Lopez tried to channel her old self showing up in a barely-there liquid gold Marchesa gown. But the former ‘Fly girl’ is too old and not as toned as one should be to wear such a revealing dress.
Renee Zellweger aged herself twenty years with her bird’s nest hairstyle and this morbid sheer-bodiced black chiffon top and satin skirt duo by Carolina Herrera. And if you’re going to wear a sheer top, something other than a visible strapless bra is preferable and highly suggested.
Heidi Klum spent the past several years judging designer on Project Runway so you would think she would look stunning on the red carpet. Instead she opted for ’school prom’ with this print strapless sweetheart dress with a several seasons ago oversized flower.

80th Annual Academy Awards - Ruby Red Carpet
February 24, 2008 by Ehmonie Hainey · Leave a Comment
Strong on the red carpet this year were ruby red gowns. Red hues ruled with veteran actresses like Ruby Dee and Helen Mirren and ingenues alike. Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus looked age-appropriate in a full-length red Valentino gown. Heidi Klum rocked a risky, voluminous gown designed by John Galliano, which will be auctioned as part of the Heart Truth campaign. Anne Hathaway combined another red carpet trend, the one-shoulder gown, with her red Marchesa frock with rosette detail. Katherine Heigl also wore a one shoulder Escada dress coordinated with a strong red lip.
