Tina Fey put away her Mary Poppins Umbrella of last year and donned a navy blue silk charmeuse (or possibly velvet?) fitted gown by Mick Jagger's partner, Designer L'Wren Scott.
It featured a scooped V-neck and flange-like ruffles (yes, kids, I'm throwing out Fashion School Terminology 101 at you!). To be honest, I'm, "on the fence" on this one, it definitely looked better onstage than it did here in this picture...What did y'all think?

68th Annual Golden Globe Awards Fashion: Who Wore What? Michelle Williams in Valentino Resort 2011

I'm not a big fan of this gown on Michelle. My main problem is how WIDE the bust/top section is. I would have dropped that neckline about one and half inches. It almost looks dowdy. Her hair and make-up, however look so beautiful! Tell me what you thought...

68th Annual Golden Globe Awards Fashion: Who Wore What? Julianne Moore in Custom Lanvin

I am sure the WWD fashionistas will just love it; it's dramatic, directional and definitely not a traditional gown. But those other non-WWD-reading fashion folk, well, I have a feeling it might not be their cup of tea. I like it's bright color and the asymmetrical detailing of the "pouf" shoulder and sleeve as well as the jeweled neck strap.
When I saw Julianne on TV in this gown, she took my breath away, but in this photo, with those unfortunate wrinkles (silk charmeuse kids-- Be careful how you sit in the limo!) I can see how she might get torn apart come tomorrow. I, for one--will stand in the "I Love It, Julianne Moore!" camp.
68th Annual Golden Globe Awards Fashion: Who Wore What? Jennifer Lopez in Zuhair Murad Spring 2011

It's HEAVEN! Give it to them Miss JLo! This white silk chiffon front-gathered gown with see-through capelet featuring gorgeous light-to-heavy sequins is SOOOO my Mom at a Caracas Embassy Party circa 1975. I have to say, Jennifer Lopez really is the ultimate DIVA on the Red Carpet. She doesn't play kids. EVERY detail is accounted for; from the white eye shadow to the sequined purse to the earrings, bracelet and nail color. And what I love most is when she gets up to do the interviews on the Red Carpet, she's all "Who me?? I'm just Jenny from the Block." PUHLEEEASE!!!! What did you guys think of this gown?
68th Annual Golden Globe Awards Fashion: Who Wore What? Halle Berry in Nina Ricci Fall 2009

*Thank you to my informed commenter/reader for pointing it out--LOVE my readers!
Wish I could say the same for that gown. Two Words: Oh Dear. In a sea of Statement-Making Architecturally Draped Gowns and all-over beaded stunners, she shows up in this? A black chiffon and satin bustier dress that looks as if she's wearing her undergarments and hasn't actually gotten dressed yet. Is it 2003 or 2011?
The under-dress cuts her off at the thigh and the chiffon over-drape skirt is just odd. And to top everything off, she makes a very safe and dated shoe choice. If she had gone with an edgier platform shoe, I might have thought she was making a statement. Definitely NOT one of my favorites of the night. And interestingly enough, why I do LOVE it on the model, on the runway, and with those STOMPING boots? But, wow, Halle is GA-GA-GORGEOUS!!?? Look at that body, that face!!! What did you guys think of her gown choice?
68th Annual Golden Globe Awards Fashion: Sandra Bullock in Jenny Packham Spring 2011

I like the one-shoulder delicately beaded blouson shape of this Jenny Packham Spring 2011 gown and I just feel that wearing the hair down--and with such severe bangs distracted from the dresses soft and feminine quality. No one's looking at the dress--just her hair. And with one shoulder dresses, it's all about showing that exposed shoulder, not hiding it. I still ADORE you Miss Sandra.
68th Annual Golden Globe Awards Fashion: Who Wore What? Nicole Kidman in Custom Prada

In other words, you won't find this style in any Look Book. Also, a lot of these design companies, of course, are offering custom designs to these A-List clients GRATIS, in exchange for the press and that Red Carpet Moment. And so we have Exhibit A: Statuesque actress Nicole Kidman in ivory all-over sequin paillette one-shoulder Custom Prada gown. Prada doesn't do gowns. But for Nicole: Si!
68th Annual Golden Globe Awards Fashion: Who Wore What? Natalie Portman in Viktor and Rolf

The silhouette, and draped cascading center front ruffle were perfect to "hide" her little baby bump. And the oversized sequin rose placed right at the bust line also drew your eye to her gorgeous face. She looked pretty, elegant and rather "Madonna (not the singer kids!) with Waiting Child"-like.
68th Annual Golden Globe Awards Fashion: Who Wore What? Angelina Jolie in Versace Atelier
My TV Guide "The Fashion Team" and "Award Show Fashion Wrap" partner-in-crime , stylist Jen Rade, told me when the Golden Globes were announced that for Angelina--whom she styles--she gets requests left and right to dress Angelina: Quel Suprise!--but she always LOVES the House of Versace because there's NEVER a question that it will be done and done right! Here Angelina wears a 1940s-inspired emerald green all-over-sequin gown with padded shoulders, bateau neckline with a scoop back and lightly blouson detail. STUNNING. Love it. Her hair and make-up look amazing as well.
68th Annual Golden Globe Awards Fashion: Who Wore What? Anne Hathaway in Armani Prive Fall/Winter 2010

Here the beautiful Anne Hathaway hits ALL of them in one dress by Armani Prive Fall/Winter 2010. Armani Prive is the Haute Couture "arm" of Designer Girogio Armani in case you didn't know. In other words, if you wanted to actually order and purchase this made-to-measure sequined gown, it would run you about $100,000. I like the shape and the twisted-draped sleeves but I'm not sure if that blushed copper color works on Anne. Although it helped that she had a major plunging back to the very covered front. What do you think?
