School of frock: Emily Ratajkowski tops the class
Move over, Cara Delevingne. Emily Ratajkowski tops the class twice in a row and is showing the rest of Hollywood how it's done
EMILY RATAJKOWSKI (A)
PREMIERE OF WE ARE YOUR FRIENDS IN LOS ANGELES
Gown: Maria Lucia Hohan
Shoes: Giuseppe Zanotti
I'm not crazy about the Angelina Jolie-inspired leg jut, but the Blurred Lines MV hottie-turned-aspiring actress takes the lead again this week, this time in a smouldering blush goddess gown. Glad she's been doing her homework and acing her first major promo tour so effortlessly. Attagirl!
KRISTEN STEWART (A-)
PREMIERE OF AMERICAN ULTRA IN LOS ANGELES
Romper: Zuhair Murad
Shoes: Jimmy Choo
When Stewart puts in a smidgen of effort on the red carpet, the results can be pretty stellar. The combination of plunging black floral sequin embellished playsuit and her brand of cool creates a look that's feminine, fun and fierce all at the same time.
BRITNEY SPEARS (C)
TEEN CHOICE AWARDS IN LOS ANGELES
Dress: Mikael D
Shoes: Le Silla
Hello, Ice Skater Barbie! It's been more than a decade since she was a teen, but the 33-year-old mum of two - who ironically received the Style Icon award at this event - is still under the delusion that she can dress like one. And if she was planning to flaunt maximum cleavage, the least she could do is to get an even tan.
BELLA THORNETEEN (C)
CHOICE AWARDS IN LOS ANGELES
Dress: Balmain
Clutch: Lee Savage
Shoes: Stuart Weitzman
It's stiff, it's ugly and it's giving her a little paunch. Yes, I'm going to step all over this one. Thorne is wearing a glorified doormat after all.
HALLE BERRY (C)
HFPA ANNUAL GRANTS BANQUET IN LOS ANGELES
Dress: Noam Hanoch
Shoes: Jimmy Choo
What kind of lingerie sorcery is this? This is less of a dress than a lacy bodysuit underneath a bandeau-and-skirt set. It's common knowledge that Berry has one of the best bods in the business for someone pushing 50, so she really doesn't need to force it down our throats any more.
SARAH SILVERMAN (F)
HFPA ANNUAL GRANTS BANQUET IN LOS ANGELES
Dress: Christian Siriano
Here's the sartorial equivalent of a car crash, with air bags deployed. Is it just me, or are Silverman's boobs sending out an SOS in their bid to escape from that tortured neckline?
WHO WORE IT BETTER?
GABRIELLE UNION
PREMIERE OF STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON IN LOS ANGELES, AUG 10
Dress: Akris
SOPHIA BUSH
HFPA ANNUAL GRANTS BANQUET IN LOS ANGELES, AUG 13
Dress: SMYTHE
In the smackdown between two interpretations of the tux-inspired silhouette, I’m picking Union’s gown for nicely contrasting sleek tailoring with the sheer fabric of the skirt and sleeves. Bush just looks like she forgot to put her pants on.
MOST IMPROVED
DEMI LOVATO
No to the slicked-back wet hair, orange tan and strapless floral one-piece that has spawned cheap knockoffs on blog shops everywhere. A resounding yes to her most recent girly, flirty ensemble. This softer, muted approach is a welcome reprieve from her usually harsh styling.
THE ELVIS DURAN Z100 MORNING SHOW IN NEW YORK CITY, JUNE 25
Jumpsuit: Bardot
Shoes: Saint Laurent
SAMSUNG GALAXY S6 EDGE PLUS AND NOTE 5 LAUNCH PARTY IN LOS ANGELES, AUG 18
Top: L'Agence
Skirt: Not known
SPECIAL MAN-TION
JOHN KRASINSKI
HFPA ANNUAL GRANTS BANQUET IN LOS ANGELES
Suit: Prada
He's always been cute in that unassuming, non-threatening way, but who knew Jim from The Office could serve up formal finery too? Emily Blunt lucked out.
