So apparently there has been a lot of fuss over some crazy event known as the Golden Globes in the last few days. All I know about this is that heaps of ladies wore pretty dresses, and Jane Lynch won the Golden Globe in The Best Supporting Actress in a Series, Miniseries, or Television Film Category for her performance in Glee. As you all probably already know, the dresses took up considerably more of my short attention span. But really, anyone can do their hair nice and put on a pretty frock. I like the ladies who do things a little differently. Here are my three favourite Golden Globe dresses, in reverse order.
3. Anne Hathaway in Armani Prive Fall 2010.I was particularly entranced by how much the dress looks like scale maille from afar. I am not usually a big fan of gold, but I love this. The dress is unusual and a little bit trendy, but still manages that classy red-carpet look.
Lo and behold, this dress is a mullet! You know, business in the front, party out the back. You party on Anne Hathaway (and if you get drunk enough to dance naked on tables, know that I will be there waiting to steal your dress).
2. Olivia Wilde in Marchesa Spring/Summer 2011This dress reminds me so much of the night sky, away from the city. The whole ensemble is a great example of taking a classic silhouette, adding a badass attitude & a little bit of badass style and making it into something quite unique. The blunt hairstyle, and absence of accessories really add something to the mix. Here's the kicker:
Killer shoes! (LOL, SEE WHUT I DID THERE. KICKER, SHOES??!) Also, this may be the cutest ever picture of Olivia Wilde in existence. But now, let's see more of those shoes.
AMAZING. SO AMAZING I CAN ONLY USE CAPSLOCK TO DESCRIBE THEM.
1. Helena Bonham-Carter in Vivienne Westwood.I can tell you right now that if this lady actually knew who I was, then I would marry her. We could dress each other up in weird concoctions, and backcomb our hair to our hearts' content. This dress is the coolest thing I have ever seen. The colours, the tulle, the brocade = SWOON.
Aww, isn't she beautiful. So much effort must have gone into this hair, and the great fascinator floating around in there. Helena really is the embodiment of a Vivienne Westwood design. It is the perfect label for her.
And, the cherry on top: the cute mismatched shoes. These have been getting a fair bit of attention on the blogosphere - some love them, some hate them. I love them TIMES A MILLION. Just so you know.Who wore your favourite Golden Globes outfit? Do you prefer the style trailblazers, or those who stick to safer options?
Until next time, xo.
