Kate Beckinsale looked gorgeous in a shimmering assymetrical dress complimented by Neil Lane diamond earrings and a large gold diamond platinum cocktail ring.

Katy Perry returned to her glamorous side. The I Kissed a Girl singer appeared on the red carpet wearing a perfect Zuhair Murad gown, H. Stern jewels, Judith Leiber clutch and Jimmy Choo shoes.

Kristen Stewart did her best to look good but dresses definitely don’t fit her. the young actress sported a midnight blue strapless dress by Monique L’Hullier.

Natalie Portman looked beautiful in her short metallic Lanvin dress, Tiffany jewels and Aldo shoes.

Nicole Richie arrived at the event with her husband. The couple didn’t separate the whole evening. The long sparkling frock Nicole wore to the party didn’t flatter her at all. The designer looked too old and tired in it.

Olivia Wilde opted for a lighter look. Her beige dress with a long zip in front looked pretty. It was accessorized with red satin Ferragamo peep toe shoes.

Vanessa Hudgens looked super sexy in a black glitzy dress with extremely low cut. The star was perfect. Zac Efron tried to be as close to her as possible!

Victoria Beckham donned a dress from her own Fall 2010 collection. The frock looked nice but it was hardly better than other dresses at the party, though Posh had hoped to be the prettiest.

Abbie Cornish seems to have a very good choice and understading of what flatters her body. The girl looked wonderful in a dark blue gown with a chic-looking detail in front.

See other ladies and tell me which outfit you like the most.

The Oscar ceremony is one of the most expected, not only because we all want to know which films are considered the best but also to see what most glamorous women wear to it.

It is a common fact that to stand out at the Oscars is always a very difficult thing. But some women know very well how to do it. And one of these is definitely Jennifer Lopez. The singer appeared on the red carpet wearing a sumptuous strapless gown by Armani Prive.

By the way, Armani creations were extremely popular. Amanda Seyfried also wore a dress by this designer and looked absolutely gorgeous.

Vera Farmiga chose a more colorful dress from Marchesa, a real red-carpet label. The actress looked perfect.

Anna Kendrick was the embodiment of youth and chic as she wore a gorgeous Elie Saab gown to the event.

Sandra Bullock, who was named the Best Actress, sported a fabulous Marchesa frock. She opted for a silver clutch to match her outfit.

Rachel McAdams looked uber feminine in a strapless flower-patterned dress by Elie Saab.

Mariah Carey opted for an elegant Valentino dress. The star was accompanied with her husband.

Penelope Cruz donned a ruby Donna Karan and looked wonderful in it from the waist up, but the drapes at her feet seemed too voluminous for the actress’s tiny frame.

Zoe Saldana looked funny in her lilac Givenchy haute couture dress, like a lantern on a Christmas tree.

Sarah Jessica Parker wore a cream-colored Chanel dress with silver flower detail in front. Looked pretty!

Diane Kruger also wore Chanel to the Oscars.

Demi Moore looked very womanly and sophisticated in her blush-pink ruffled frock by Atelier Versace.

Carey Mulligan’s dress by Prada looked great but her shoes were disappointing indeed.

Cameron Diaz looked fantastic in an Oscar de la Renta dress.

Kate Winslet looked beautiful in her simple outfit by Yves Saint Laurent. A nice clutch and a Tiffani necklace complemented her look.

The new star in Hollywood Gabourey Sidibe wore a blue Marchesa dress to the ceremony and looked very pretty!

Miley Cyrus didn’t look as a teenager at all in her Jenny Packham strapless dress.

Meryl Streep looked super elegant and fresh in a Chris March gown.

Faith Hill opted for a sexy black lace dress by Roberto Cavalli.

Tina Fey looked glamorous in a Michael Kors dress.

Sigourney Weaver looked good but not special and she obviously blended in the crowd in her red floor-sweeping gown.

Sarah Jessica Parker was invited as a guest to the ceremony to witness President Obama presenting the National Medal of Arts and National Humanities in Washington. It was a great honour for the actress and she was very particular when choosing the outfit for the event. She obviously made the right choice. The dress looked beautiful, stylish and very elegant on her!

Kristen Stewart was one of those who attended this event. The actress wore a Pucci Origami Strapless Wool Dress that looked good on her. Kristen felt happy at the ceremony as she was named the Woman of the Year.

Naomi Campbell looked fantastic in Alexander McQueen’s dress and a pair of perfect black heels. The supermodel received the Outstanding Contribution award for all her charity job.

Leona Lewis looked classy in a black frock complimented with a black hat, lace fingerless gloves and beige shoes. The attire was gorgeous but it seems to me Leona looks older in it.

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen looked beautiful and trendy in their outfits probably created by themselves.

Carey Mulligan didn’t sport a dress on the red carpet but appeared wearing a black pencil skirt and a blue blouse with a black belt.

Sisters Kylie and Dannii Minogue were together at the party. Kylie looked fabulous in her strapless LBD. Dannii rocked a yellow one-shoulder gown that covered her baby bump beautifully.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley opted for a red sexy frock that flattered her figure a lot.

Donna Ari went for a chic sparkling black dress, a yellow clutch and a pair of silver shoes.

Sophie Ellis Bextor looked stunning in her navy Grecial-style dress.

The women that didn’t impress me with their fashion choices for the evening were Daisy Lowe who looked horrible in her Miu Miu dress with cut-outs, Claudia Schiffer in her shapeless total black dress and Nicola Roberts who chose a bright pink outfit that was too short.

I’ll begin with Kristen Stewart. She wasn’t the best-dressed and her look seemed unfinished but she is the star of Twilight, the saga I liked so much, so she is the first on my list. Kristen looked good in short white strapless Chanel dress and a pair of matching heels. I do think she looks better in jeans.

Kate Winslet couldn’t miss this exciting event and appeared on the red carpet looking elegant and classy. I liked her black dress with lacy insets very much!

Vera Farmiga looked brilliant in a white assymetrical Marchesa gown. The dress was so cute that Vera was an absolute stand out for me!

Another Twightlight and New Moon star Anna Kendrick wore a yellow Pucci dress to the party and looked lovely! The embroidery in front was beautiful.

Joely Richardson who arrived to support her mother showed off her beauty in a blue satin Katherine Walker gown with silver shoulder details. She matched her dress with a pair of black shoes and a pretty little clutch.

Claire Danes opted for a silver frock that looked a bit too elaborate in design. Jewelry pieces she wore to match the dress added glamour to her look.

Carey Mulligan dazzled in a flower-prited dress that revealed her shoulders. A pair of black sandals completed the attire.

Anne Marie Duff blended with the red carpet wearing a scarlet dress by Alberta Ferretti that covered her baby bump beautifully.

Kristin Scott Thomas went a simplier path and chose a black classy beaded dress by Louis Vuitton she looked fabulous in. As it was rather cold she took a fur boa to cover herself.

Audrey Tautou looked so much pretty in her pink frock by Lanvin.

Meredith Ostrom wore a black one-shoulder dress that looked ageing on her though was sumptuous.

Jamie Winston went for Marylin Monroe look in Alexander McQueen’s creation.

Read about hairstyles at the event.

Speaking about Halston collection for Autumn/Winter 2010/2011 unveiled during New York Fashion Week I can say that it includes lots of very comfortable things that look good, those items which modern women want to see in their wardrobes – beautiful and practical.

A few cocktail dresses with cutouts draped beautifully, elegant trouser suits and light coats with fur sleeves and hemlines looked nice and wearable. However, some items were far from being perfect. For instance a yellow cape dress was a complete mess as well as the headwear pieces some of the models had to wear.

Evening gowns deserve special attention, especially the red halterneck with a silver decoration. This was fabulous!

The show was opened by a number of short embellished dresses that would look fantastic on a young girl with slender legs. A few coats appeared but they seemed to be out of place among those chic special-occasion frocks.

The red mini with an embellished trippet was a real hit as well as a black dress with millions of roses attached to it. A halter in blood red dripped with gold leather chain embroidery deserves special praise as it looked absolutely gorgeous.

The parade finished with a set of fabulous gowns that were obviously created for awards events like Oscars and Golden globes. Good job, Monique!!!

It was her fourth collection and the most successful one, to be sincere. Dresses and high platform shoes were the focus and no wonder why, it’s just what the designer wants to see and wear herself.

Victoria started the show by greeting everyone, which was very different from other presentations, and as the fashion parade continued she was telling about the collection, commenting on styles and designs.

She said:

I feel the clothes express how my own personal style has evolved, more relaxed, a little more slouchy, but still structured.’

The dresses looked perfect – classy, chic and sophisticated, the ones for red carpets and special events. You will hardly ever see someone wearing such a frock in the street.

Lots of draping appeared throughout, on backs and necklines. Puffed hemlines along with rather strict silhuettes looked pretty. Some gowns were created in the style of trenchcoats, so much loved by Victoria. Long slits on dresses added sexuality to designs.

A few frocks came loose in waist area and this made me a bit puzzled because I’ve never seen Posh rocking such an outfit.

The color pallette included deep reds, blues and greens, as well as nudes and a dazzling pale gold.

The former Spice Girl claimed the range of dresses was inspired by comic book detective Dick Tracy.

Beckham said she felt great about the fact the industry finally began to take her seriously as a designer. Besides, she revealed her dream was to open her own store in the next five years.

But, I’m still learning,’ she admitted. ‘I still feel I need to prove myself – all my life I’ve had to prove myself. Each season, I have to better myself. I really want to grow as a designer.’

WWD commented on the range:

The collection Beckham showed for fall … presented none of the neophyte awkwardness one might expect from a four-seasons’ new designer (and not just one with a pop star past).’

British Vogue’s Lauren David Peden also praised the 35-year-old’s creations:

Beckham presented a very beautiful collection that evolved her body-con aesthetic while still leaving room – literally – to breathe, thanks to a new-found focus on draping and fluidity.’

Lisa Armstrong of The Times said:

These clothes are not being churned out to make a quick buck (leave that to her jeans, perfume and sunglasses) – they’re extremely work intensive.’
I like the collection a lot, it’s just what I prefer wearing. What is your opinion?

The dress she wore on Sunday in Los Angeles was chic. It was short, teal-coloured and looked perfect on the young singer.

Cyrus says she is desperate to do whatever she can to help.

She tells Usa Today:

I’m going to auction it (the dress) off on eBay for the Red Cross. It’s the little things you can do. I think it’s really important that everybody come together because disaster relief isn’t just now. It’s how we’re going to help years from now. We have to restore an entire place. It just can’t be one person, one foundation, one group of people. All people have to come together”.

Beside selling her dress, Miley is joining Quincy Jones and Lionel Richie to record We Are The World to benefit charity for Haiti.

While some were burning with anticipation of who was to win, others, including me, were looking forward to seeing fashion choices of the evening. And, sincerely speaking, we were not disappointed!

Lots of beautifully dressed ladies arrived to the event and sashayed on the red carpet showing off themselves.

The outfit I liked the most was worn by eccentric Lady GaGa. Custom-made Giorgio Armani Prive gown looked fabulous! I really mean it. I loved the dress! Of course it was far from ordinary but the color was nice and the design wasn’t aggressive. Rather it brought some unexpected femininity to GaGa’a look, something that she usually misses. The shoes were shocking though. They looked great but were hardly safe to wear.

Jennifer Lopez looked stunning in an unusual silver-white gown, white peep-toe shoes and absolutely sumptuous bracelets!

Lea Michele glammed up the red carpet sporting a sexy black one-shoulder dress with a feathered hemline and matching black heels.

Next comes gorgeous Marisa Miller in a snowy white vintage Gucci mini-dress and black Yves Saint Laurent pumps. The supermodel looked perfect! I’ve got one question though, why does she always choose short white dresses for red carpet events?

Mary J. Blige looked brilliant in a silk crepe fuschia Gucci gown with cut out detail. The black rubberized crocodile envelope clutch from the same brand complemented the attire.

17-year-old Party in the USA star strutted the carpet in Herve Leger short frock and Balenciaga shoes, accessorised with Judith Leiber bag and jewelry by Lorraine Schwartz and Ofira Schwartz.

Rihanna dazzled everyone with her floor-sweeping feathered gown. Looked great!

Nicole Kidman went classic in her long black satin dress with a beautiful neck detail.

Katy Perry opted for a flowered Zac Posen’s dress which left the singer’s back exposed. A bright red clutch was the wrong choice obviously.

Heidi Klum looked lovely and womanly in a short sparkling dress with a low neck. Her butterfly ring was fantastic!

The Black Eyed Peas frontwoman wore a pretty blue one-shoulder Pucci dress, Le Silla shoes, and a Judith Leiber clutch.

Carrie Underwood rocked a chic white dress that flattered her complexion a lot.

Beyonce looked superb in a hip-hugging Stephane Rolland dress and Casadei shoes. Lorraine Schwartz jewels added glamour to her look.
