52nd Grammy Awards: Black, White, Shimmery.

The 52nd Grammy Award saw some new generation artistes rocking up in less than classic styles that were ubiquitous in red carpet events of the past. We saw how Ri Ri came during the pre-Grammy gala in Viktor and Rolf half-bitten cotton candy dress, while Lady Gaga did live up to her quirky status in the wardrobe department by being spotted in an orb-like Armani gown. Then you have the Perry who kissed a girl and liked it, who never fails to be at the fore front of anything fashion. As much as I hate her sequined George Chakras frock with zigzag hem, I must admit that I have to give her credits for her courage to wear that and date Russel Brand.

Besides black, nude and white were the popular colours for the night. There was Katy Perry in a nude Zac Posen number, and Heidi Klum in a nude Emilio Pucci minidress. She may have throw away all her Louboutins, but Jennifer Lopez did came in a white and silver chain-mail Versace gown that accentuated her figure well.
Rihanna did a change and redeemed herself later in the evening with a high neck white Elie Saab gown with a mini train.

With $200,000 worth of custom made Lorraine Schwartz and Ofira earrings, who would have thought anyone will look so thrashy, but sorry Beyonce (as much as I adore her), I really hated the overall styling from the light-colored hair to the mermaid-like Stephane Rolland gown. Taylor Swift wasn't too far off in my list of worst-dressed with her choice on that Kaufman Franco dress that made her look twice her age. Judging from the trend on the biggest winner and best album title-holder for the year, that was probably the trade-off.

Speaking of worst-dress, no one, not even Miss Gaga can top in the Fashion Hall of Shame. With see-through, black lace Dolce & Gabbana dress worn over a bodysuit and paired with distasteful fishnet stockings, oops, Britney Spears did it again!

Screen Actors Guild Award 2009: Fashion Edition - Emancipation of new blood

The Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Award 2009 had given out the bronze silhouette to some of the most highly-acclaimed actors in the Movie and TV industry.

Unlike the Grammy's, these celebrities dare to give other less red-carpet-exposed designers a go.

We love how Teri Hatcher donned herself in this pale origami gown by Monique Lhuillier. Also in a Lhuillier was Evan Rachel Wood who wore a teal, one-sided strap gown.

Mrs Tony Parker, looked stunning in this hot salmon chiffon number by Jenny Packham with gemstones sewn along the neckline.

Anne Hathaway may not have taken home the Best Actress award, but we love how her Grecian Goddess look came off the Red carpet. This white Azzaro gown with crystal embellishments complements the actress frame, hair and make-up impeccably.

Even Katrina Bowden was spotted in a Project Runway winner, Christian Siriano, sea-blue custom-made dress. Not exactly a fan of this design, but still it was a worthy try.

Some other stunning celebrities:

Freida Pinto donned a pale bluish purple Marchesa gown with a Roger Viver clutch and Martin Katz jewels, Emily Blunt in a silver sequin Pamela Roland gown, Evan Rachel Wood adorned a one shouldered Lhuillier teal gown with a bird brooch

Of course with all great events, there will always be some who will come dress in their "best", or so they think they were.

Sorry, Mrs Pitt, but we really think she look shapeless, boring and uninteresting in this midnight blue Max Azria gown. We can understand how much of a chore it is to dress up for an award show.

There's so much of a blue going on, this electric fish-tail dress looked so yesterday. The horizontal seamline that runs across the mid-thigh is just so unflattering and tacky, that we forget to look at Kate Winslet's beautiful décolleté.

Grammys fashion - red carpet : Blue is the new Black

The exact color that got me into trouble while working for this famous local designer,
cobalt blue is the "in" thing this season.

At the recent Grammy Awards RC, stars were spotted strutting down the red carpet in all shades of blue.

Zac Posen and Giorgio Armani did well in their score cards.

Sultry singer and 4 award nominee, Rihanna, attended the event in a cobalt blue tulle and organza-like dress from Zac Posen. The dress complements her new short crop so well, we almost forgot about the Chopard bracelet!

No one, no one, can pull off a Giorgio Armani Privé sapphire duchess satin gown as well as Miss Alicia Keys. High bun and Chinese collar were indeed conservative, yet the mini trail added a touch of elegance to this rnb singer's midnight blue outfit.

Not exactly blue, but we simply love this dress!

Very flowy and glamourous. English singer and songwriter, Natasha bedingfield wore this purple Reem Acra gown with matching belt around the empire line; giving some edge to the heavily draped gown. We know where you can find pretty dresses like this!

Not exactly my favourite, but this Elie Saab number is much adorned by other fashion critics.
Clad in this pale blue tulle and silver beaded haute couture gown, Beyonce "wow" the crowd down the red carpet. At least she's in the right hue!

Like a modern goddess, Nelly Furtado was clad in a crystal bright blue Arthur Mendonca draped gown. The sweetheart neckline and drapes accentuates the rapper's womanly curves.

This best new artist nominee, Taylor Swift, matched her borrowed Jimmy Choo's with a lilac-blue medieval-inspired gown by Sandi Spika. The silk bustier with beaded A-line skirt enhances her figure.



As for the men?


Stick to black.
