Rating: ★★★★½

The lovely Thandie Newton attended the Serpentine Gallery Summer Party in London yesterday looking absolutely stunning in a multi-colored Matthew Williamson Resort 2010 silk dress. Thandie copied almost the entire runway look 1:1, but added a different, studded belt to cinch in her tiny waist. Nude cutout heels and a heavily embellished clutch from the same collection completed Thandie’s colorful look. What a great red carpet comeback! Thandie never disappoints in the style department.

Marchesa is a red carpet favorite among celebrities. No major award show would be complete without at least one celebrity wearing one of the exquisite dresses. Georgina Chapman, one half of the designer duo, does a lot of PR work for Marchesa by wearing her designs only on every public event she attends.

Marchesa’s recent spring collection seems to be extremely popular with the rich and famous in Hollywood. See who’s been wearing Marchesa Spring 2009 below and vote for your favorite at the end of the post.

Thandie Newton and Georgina Chapman wearing the same Marchesa Spring 2009 strapless tulle mini dress

At the LA Premiere of RocknRolla in October 2008, Thandie Newton wore a beautiful silvery strapless tulle mini dress from Marchesa’s Spring 2009 collection looking absolutely outstanding. The English actress completed her look with a silver Chanel clutch, black pointy heels and sultry smokey eyes.

Yesterday at the Launch of Topshop/Topman Dinner in New York, model and designer Georgina Chapman flaunted the same modified tulle dress as Thandie which she wore under a black sequinned jacket. Georgina accessorized with a silver necklace, a black clutch and black square-toe pumps.

This is a tough decision. Both women look flawless and carry the dress well. I love it on both of them, but I like the dress slightly more on Thandie as I prefer her accessories and the smokey eyes which are a stark contrast against the romantic nature of the dress. A risk that paid off for Thandie. What do you think?

Who wore Marchesa better?

BAFTA Awards 2009 – Best Dressed

by Profashionelle on February 9, 2009 · 1 comment

Sorry guys, I know I’m horribly late on the BAFTA Awards coverage, but the pictures just wouldn’t come in. I guess the rain kept most of the paps inside. But I finally managed to get them all together this evening: the best dressed ladies from The Orange British Academy Film Awards 2009. Enjoy!

Worst Dressed are coming soon…. I need a short rest first.

Freida Pinto

Rating: ★★★★☆

Freida Pinto was absolutely gorgeous in a pink strapless gown which had a sweetheart neckline and tiered tulle ruffles allover. Freida injected some Indian pizzazz to her look by adding a colorful Bollywood necklace. Definitely the Best Dressed at the BAFTAs.

Sharon Stone

Rating: ★★★★☆

Sharon Stone was breathtaking last night. In fact, I think I’ve never seen her looking better and am all the more surprised because she’s normally a Worst Dressed regular. But there’s no animal print here, no tackiness, just a youthful Sharon looking fantastic in a fire-red John Galliano Spring 2009 strapless gown.

On a side note: Whatever Sharon takes to stay young, I want the same! Woman does not look a day older than a very good 35 (she’s 50).

Kate Winslet

Rating: ★★★★☆

Kate Winslet played it safe once again, but oh my, she is so owning this black mermaidesque gown. The British beauty radiated happiness and looked amazing in her body-con dress. Love it, but I hope and pray she wears something with color to the Oscars.

Kristin Scott Thomas

Rating: ★★★★☆

Kristin Scott Thomas was a vision in her beautiful colorblock gown which had a black embroidered bodice and a cobalt blue silk skirt. She looked so elegant & classy.

Amy Adams

Rating: ★★★½☆

Amy Adams was also stunning in an electric blue RM by Roland Mouret mermaid gown. The color is gorgeous against her pale skin and red hair and I simply loved her pearl necklace & earrings. The only thing bugging me is that her dress reminds me a lot of Kate Winslet’s gown from this year’s SAG Awards.

Kylie Minogue

Rating: ★★★½☆

Kylie Minogue looked cute and sexy in a seasoned Chanel Fall 2002 Couture dress and gold strappy sandals. A gorgeous dress for her, she looks adorable.

Angelina Jolie

Rating: ★★★½☆

Luckily, Angelina took a step back from wearing loose dresses and gave us something more interesting at this year’s BAFTA Awards. Her Armani Privé Spring 2009 dress was folded on the front and had a neon yellow lining. Angelina completed her look with black satin Louboutin pumps.

Thandie Newton

Rating: ★★★☆☆

Thanide Newton looked great in her black vintage gown which had a tulle overlay skirt and gold stripes allover, but I have come to expect a lot more from her and think she can do so much better.

Emma Watson

Rating: ★★★☆☆

Emma Watson looked very grown up & elegant in her black Temperley London gown which had a black and white rosette detailing on the neckline. A great look on Emma, but she could use some color next time.
