The Golden Globes in currently airing as I type, but I just could not wait to review the fashions from the show! Watching the stars enter on the red carpet is my favorite part of the entire event, this year there were so many stunning outfits so it is very strong competition this year. Since, I suspect this post will get quite lengthy, we will get right into it.
Best:
Amanda Heard
I love this look. It has the sexy split up the leg, but keeps it elegance with the A-symmetrical neckline. I think the colour flatters her amazingly and the cut of the dress is flattering (something many stars forget!) The hair and make up scream high fashion to me, making this look very current and on point!
Zoey Deschannel
Now this outfit is very 'Vintage Glam'. It has a very vintage style and cut, but I love how the designer dressed up the look by adding a bit of sparkle here and there. Zoey also followed the theme of the dress by adding 'Vintage Glam' shoes. Overall I love this outfit, it is perfect for Zooey's style, yet still very appropriate for an award show.
Julianna MarguliesThis star only JUST made the cut. I love dress, I think it is very timeless, flattering cut. It ticks all the boxes. My complaint is that I feel the colour and the hair and make up did not do Julianna justice. Most people will recognize her from the show "The Good Wife", where she plays a hard women with a 'take-no-shit' attitude. I feel the overall only continues to harden her and she really should of gone for a more feminine look to attempt to soften her image and distance herself from her character.
Lizzy Caplan
I LOVE this look, it is up in my top 10 best dresses of all time! The vertical black panel is flattering and classic and it is paired with embellished sides and sleeves that lead to an ultra modern neckline. I love the combination of old time glam and very modern. I think it is so unique and really stands out on the red carpet, it makes people really pay attention not think "Just another ball gown". Lizzy looks stunning and you would not believe this was the same lady who played Janice Ian.
Olivia Wilde
This is a classic bling dress, perfect for an award ceremony. I love this style of dress on stars who are pregnant. It is a beautiful way to present you soon-to-be baby and fully embrace pregnancy. Compared to ballooning dresses that just make the women look fat. Olivia has the 'I am pregnant and fabulous' attitude.
Ariel Winter
Little Ariel, she has grown up before our eyes and looking at this stunning outfit choice, she has clearly been taking tips from "Best dressed" veteran, and co star, Sofía Vergara. This dress really shows off Ariels new curves and really makes her look like a stunning young lady. I love the colour, Ariel is clearly an Autumn and this colour suits her perfectly. After the recent drama with her family, I am glad she has stayed strong and looks fabulous.
Sofía Vergara
She has done it again. While watching the show, I literally gasped and said "oh my god". This dress is stunning. I am impressed that she has taken the critics feedback from previous award shows and used it to her advantage. In the past she has come under fire for constantly wearing mermaid style dresses, with a lot of embellishments. Yet, today here she is with an A-line ball gown in complete black. This only proves she is stunning in everything and she does not need the embellishments on her to sparkle and stand out in the crowd.
Taylor Swift
This award season, Taylor has been on point with her outfit choices, the Golden Globes is no exception.The style of the dress is very elegant and she definitely looks like a beautiful lady, Swift is often bashed for acting younger than her age. I think the use of pink to project a sense of femininity, yet the style of the dress projects elegance and class.
Lupita Nyong'o
I love this dress. The contract between her skin tone and vibrant red of the dress are stunning. The cut of the dress is flattering and it almost has a royalty feel to it. she is possible one the best dressed people at this whole award show!
Kaley Cuoco
The newly married Laley looks like she glowing in this photo. I love the dress, it is a classic flattering cut but the pattern on the dress is most modern and casual, paired with her causal hair. The colours really compliment her pallet. Stunning and casual all the while being award show chic!
Worst
Lena Dunham
This dress isn't even bad, it is just on the wrong person. The colour is too bright a yellow, very few women can pull this off, generally you have to have a tan of some sort. Something Lena does not. The mermaid cut, only works on women who have an hourglass figure with a bigger bust, unfortunately Lena has more of an apple/pear look. Not flattering.
Sarah Hyland
Once again, this dress isn't bad. It doesn't even look bad on Sarah. I put her on this list because usually she stuns me but this time it was very... eh. The colour washes her out, the cut isn't not very flattering. The dress as a whole outfit is very boring and she is over shadowed by her co stars. The hair is too casual for the dress and her eyebrows are too strong.
Reese Witherspoon
She is clearly still living in her hey-day. This dress would of made the best dressed list if it was 1999.
Paula Patton
Nope. No. Just no
Aubrey Plaza
I wanted to like this dress because I am fan of Aubrey. But I cant. This dress looks like it is a reject from a textilies class from a high school. Pink and Purple? Not colours that go together. It is not fitting and the hem is not anything?
Emma Watson
The worst of the night. My Harry Potter fangirl heart breaks as I type this but I couldn't ignore this atrocity. Its a dress with pants. From the front it would look good without the pants, just a nice dress with a split. But then from the back? It looks like it is missing a piece. I don't even know how to even try and justify this dress. All I think when I look at it is 'Oculus reparo'
That's all for this years Golden Globes, overall I was impressed by how well everyone was dressed despite some out-liars. I hope you enjoyed it. Let me know in the comments what you think.
