Golden Globes Fashion Predictions - Marchesa

The Golden Globes are upon us, which are by far the most relaxed of all the American Awards ceremonies. The red carpet is ready, the statuettes are being polishes and the bubbly is about to be corked, the Golden Globes are Americas answer to the Baftas - only with a little less of the stiff upper lip we Brits are famous for.

With this in mind, the A-Listers will have a tough choice when it comes to who to wear. The big names like Doir, Chanel, and Valentino will almost certainly be saved for the big one, the Oscars. So they will be allowed a little more freedom - step up, Oscar de la Renta, Marchesa and Galliano - it is your time to shine.

Marchesas S/S2011 collection is nothing short of breathtaking. The nude hues are perfectly on trend for the awards season, along with certain pieces having that extra bit of sparkle. There is a wide variety of dresses and separates to suit every A-Listers taste. Best Actress nominees Michelle Williams, Natalie Portman and Jennifer Love-Hewitt would all suit the ethereal style of Marchesa.

Marchesa is famous for using the cut of their gowns to show of the wearers figure - and make the more petit women look that little bit taller through use of block colours and textiles.
The 68th Annual HFPA Golden Globes are on Sunday.

Get the look: Michelle Williams

Michelle Williams is looking simply radiant here in an elegant Black Lace prom dress, pixie haircut and black clutch, and looks every bit the Hollywood Darling. Williams, pictured here on the Red Carpet at the National Board of Review of Motion Pictures gala in New York on Tuesday night, is currently promoting her new film with Ryan Gosling , Blue Valentine. And once again I am here to suggest how you can get her look.

Williams has chosen a simple yet elegant look, which shows off her feminine side whilst giving us a glimpse of old Hollywood glamour. This outfit suits her perfectly as she looks every inch the superstar as she oozes style in this Oscar de la Renta gown, she is definitely one to watch for what she will be wearing this awards season!

So ladies, what are you waiting for? Go and get yourself some Hollywood glamour!!

Awards Season Fashion Predictions

It's that time of year again. Awards Season. Pretty soon all we will be bothered about is who wore what, and where. So here are my 2 hot picks for fashion this awards season...
Colour
Colours are a massive fashion trend this season and awards ceremony fashion is no exception. Celebrities such as Kate Hudson, Gwyneth Paltrow and Katie Holmes are famed for wearing vibrant colours on the red carpet and all getting away with it. Well, most of the time. Colour was a major theme in Gucci and Sonia Rykiel's SS11 collection, shown in Satin and Silk on a bias cut, so expect to see some celebrities going for something a little different on the red carpet at some of the more relaxed ceremonies such as; the Emmy's, Comedy Awards and the Brits.

Nude Hues
Nude Hues are a favourite for many A-List stars such as; Penelope Cruz, Jennifer Lopez and Taylor Swift. Marchesa and Chloe are famous for ethereal, grecian inspired dresses that show the empire line and lots of sparkle - perfect for ceremonies like the Grammys and BAFTAs.

Traditional Glamour
There will always be a place for traditional awards season gowns. Dolce and Gabbana, Versace and Oscar de la Renta are the designers that are the most successful at continuously producing exquisite gowns for Cameron Diaz and Demi Moore and are most likely to be worn at high Profile Events like the Oscars (or the 'Academy Awards' as they're known in the 'biz).
