Two of music's biggest divas both fronted up to the Grammy's last night in similar pale shades of dress. They were also both showing a little bit of leg, with splits in their frocks - a popular trend this awards season. Rihanna looked like she came straight off the runway in a cream Elie Saab autumn/winter 2009 Couture gown. The high neckline and ruffled bodice was a risk for the young star and yet somehow seemed to work.
With five Grammy Award nominations under her belt, Lady Gaga's presence on the red carpet it was always going to be huge... and huge it was, literally! This time Giorgio Armani stepped in to design five different Armani Privé ensembles designed especially for Gaga and the Grammy's. For her grand entrance, the starlet arrived in a lavender and silver orbit-style corseted gown and towering heels both of which were sprinkled in Swarovski crystals.
Speaking of her outfit, she said: "I am honored to be wearing Armani this evening. The series of pieces Mr. Armani created for me are truly iconic; they represent not only beautiful fashion, but my spirit and essence as an artist."
The red carpet was rolled out again this weekend for the 2010 Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards in LA. While it didn't attract quite as many big names as the Golden Globes, there was still some fine fashion to behold. Notable appearances included Diane Kruger in a stunning floor-length mustard gown by Jason Wu, Anna Paquin in a Alexander McQueen reptile print mini-dress, Christina Hendricks in a one-shoulder red Carolina Herrera number and Kate Hudson in a backless white (yes, she wore white again) dress by Emilio Pucci.
Take a quick look at the highlights from the red carpet by watching the video above.
Two of the belles from last night's National Television Awards was long-time style rivals Dannii Minogue and Cheryl Cole. The X Factor judges celebrated their win for Most Popular Television Show by glamming up the red carpet with two completely different looks. For her first public appearance since announcing her pregnancy, Dannii covered up the bump in a black-and-white striped strapless prom dress and bright red heels. While Cheryl went in a different direction by choosing this elegant soft grey floor-length chiffon gown designed by Stéphane Rolland. Lovely dress, however I'm not too keen on the matching wrist cuffs... how about you?
It's a happy day when a major A-lister dons one of your designs - just ask Erdem. The label hit the red carpet on the body of Ashley Olsen at the Golden Globes after-party. The fashionista wore a bright blue satin dress with appliqué sleeves and top section.
"I'm so excited that she wore it," Erdem Moralioglu said. "It really suited her." While at the party Ashley confirmed that she and her sister Mary-Kate will stage a presentation of their label The Row during New York Fashion Week next month for the first time.
On such a rainy day in Hollywood, perhaps silk wasn't the best choice for a stroll along the red carpet. Nevertheless, Cameron Diaz went against the pink and purple grain which many of the stars wore in this bright red number by Alexander McQueen. Truth be told, it wasn't one of my favourites but it was great to see a flash of bold colour in what was a mostly sea of flesh-tone coloured gowns. What are your thoughts on Cam's outfit?
Ruffles were certainly a popular sight at the Golden Globes. Mad Men's resident Marilyn Monroe, Christina Hendricks showed off her amazing curves in a apricot-champagne coloured strapless gown by Christian Siriano. Her drop leaf earrings and bracelet are by Loree Rodkin. She and the rest of the cast spent the evening celebrating Mad Men's win for Best Television Series, Drama.
