Delicate neutrals, shimmering metallics and elegant fish-tail gowns stole the show at last night’s Golden Globe Awards, as the A-list elite shunned bolds and brights for a subtle take on red carpet dressing.
A pre-cursor to the Oscars , if the stars were looking for a stage upon which to make a style statement, the red carpet of the Golden Globes was it.
But instead, Heidi Klum in Calvin Klein Collection , Kate Beckinsale in Roberto Cavalli , Jessica Alba in Gucci and Charlize Theron in Dior , all plumped for neutral champagne tones giving a subtle, subdued appeal to the proceedings.
In a nod to old-school Hollywood glamour, fishtail gowns were an elegant choice for Tilda Swinton, who wore Haider Ackerman , and Julianne Moore who wore Chanel Couture . While at the bolder end of the fish-tale scale, Kelly Osborne chose a blue Zac Posen gown.
Red carpet new comer Rooney Mara rose to the top of the style stakes in a black Nina Ricci gown, and Mila Kunis followed suit in a sophisticated, black strapless Dior creation.
When it came to designers, Lanvin stood out, with Natalie Portman , and ‘The Help’ actress Emma Stone both wearing the French house with aplomb.
Magnificent in metallics were Lea Michele in Marchesa , Nicole Richie in Julien Macdonald , and Andie McDowell in David Meister Signature, while deep blues and greens were the tones of choice for Michelle Williams in Jason Wu , Evan Rachel Wood in Gucci Premiere and Freida Pinto in Prada .
