Oscars 2019

Oscars 2019 were very anticipated because of the diversity of the nominations and luckily the winners didn't disappoint!
Let's immediately dig into the celebrities' amazing looks.

Disastrous Oscars

Oscars!!!! YES!!! After a not so thrilling awards season (fashionally speaking ahah), I couldn't wait for the Oscars! Usually movie stars and candidates show off the best outfit of the year.. however, it wasn't like that.
Nothing exciting, but pretty monotonous. Yes, of course, there were some good outfits, but nothing breath-taking as it should be!
The night had a unexpected turn out with the big mistake in the declaration of the best picture. It was called La La Land on the stage when the real winner was Moonlight! Ops!!!

From BAFTAs to Grammys

Last night was full of events: the Grammys at Los Angeles and the Baftas in London.

The Oscars of the music and the British Oscars all in one night but on the opposite side of the world!

From Royal Hall in London to Staples Center in Los Angeles, the celebrities were a lot with a lot of looks, but unfortunately I have to admit that last night was a bit undertone. There weren't outstanding outfits or looks, nothing breath-taking. Maybe because they're holding back for the upcoming Oscars? I really hope so! Because I need to be surprised!!

Let's see the outfits of Baftas!

Golden Globes 2017

Golden Globes! I was waiting for this! The GG are the prelude to the mega event of the Oscars.. most of the people always says that if you win at the Golden Globes, you will mostly win at the Oscars! But let's admire the crazily amazing dresses of the celebrities on the red carpet! I think this year was a little bit undertone.. Definitely there wasn't an outstanding look, but a lot of classics with some cute outfits inbetween.

Movie, after movie..

September, for me, means always return from the summer holidays, back to school/work and of course the beginning of awards season but most of all the new edition of the Venice Film Festival.
I will never be tired of saying that Venice is one of the most beautiful city in the world and as consequence is one of the best location for a festival like that.
Two weeks full of premieres, dinners, gala and glamour all on the amazing locations of Venice on the water.

Venice Film Festival is here with its 73rd edition and this year the jury is composed by Sam Mendes, English film director of the last two James Bond's movies and President of the jury, Laurie Anderson, American artist, Gemma Arterton, English actress saw in a lot of films such as Quantum of Solace. Giancarlo De Cataldo, Italian writer, Nina Hoss, German actress, Chiara Mastroianni, Italian actress, Joshua Oppenheimer, American director, Lorenzo Vigas, Venezuelan director and Zhao Wei, Chinese actress, singer and director.

Yes, we Cannes!

The most glamour and elegant event of this spring is certainly the Cannes Film Festival. Great location, great new films, great actors and finally great outfits!
This film festival always gave us such a wonderful fashion's choices, because it's la croisette! You can't be fashionably unprepared for this event!
Even a tomboy as Michelle Rodriguez, who I personally don't like so much, was so gorgeous with her black Zuhair Murad dress with de Grisogono jewelry.
 

The judges of the festival are the directors Joel and Ethan Coen, the actresses Rossy de Palma, Sophie Marceau, Sienna Miller, the singer Rokia Traoré, directors Guillermo del Toro, Xavier Dolan and actor Jake Gyllenhaal.
At the opening the most beautiful, of course, were the women (and also Jake!). Sienna chose a Balenciaga dress, which is so chic.

At the night the judges were beautiful! Starting with the spanish actress Rossy de Palma who wore this amazing black dress with lacy details o the shoulders. Just gorgeous!
Sienna Miller, is one of the actresses that has a really elegant sense of style which I appreciate. That evening she wore this navy blue Lanvin gown with a black ribbon on her shoulder.




Sienna then wore this wonderful dress from the Sonia Rykiel pre-autumn/winter 2015 collection, accessorised with a Bulgari clutch and jewellery. Omg, I loved this outfit so much!

Sophie Marceau chose a Alexandre Vauthier Couture dress from the spring/summer 2015 collection.

Doutzen Kroes wore an amazing white Atelier Versace gown with Chopard jewellery.

Can we take a moment just to admire how handsome her dj husband is? Sunner James is so.. WOW!
Can you imagine how cute their children are?? 




Karlie Kloss chose this white and silver  Atelier Versace dress, which is a mixture between a classic gown and a taillure trousers. So cool!

The Oscar winner Julienne Moore wore a Giorgio Armani Privè dress with Chopard jewellery and the second day she chose a burgudy velvet one shoulder dress.

Naomi Watts wore this amazing Elie Saab dress with Bulgari jewellery.. Elie never let you down with his creations.

The second night she wore a beautiful black dress by  Ralph Lauren with Bulgari bag and jewels, and Jimmy Choo shoes.

For the photocall with Matthew McConaughey she wore Peter Pilotto dress and Jimmy Choo sandals, in the evening at the premiere of "Sea of Trees" she chose a delicate Giorgio Armani dress.

Natalie Portman matched with the red carpet with her simple but elegant red dress by Dior.

Natalie, at the premiere of "A Tale of Love and Darkness", chanelled her inner bon ton mademoiselle and she wore this nice Dior gown with De Grisogono jewelry.

She also chose to wear this Rodarte dress and Dior shoes.

Cate Blanchett wore breath-taking gown from the Giles autumn/winter 2015 collection.

 Lupita Nyong’o dared a green dress by Gucci and Chopard jewellery. The details of little pink flowers on the shoulders are so cute and polished.

The next day at Hotel Du Cap Eden Roc, she wore an amazing white Oscar de la Renta chiffon dress. One of the most elegant!

Speaking of bright colours, Charlize Theron rocked this yellow gown by Gucci. Simply a  goddess!

Miranda Kerr wore a pink gown by Emanuel Ungaro which showed her long and perfect legs at the Pink and Black Magnum Party.
The next day she wore  a David Koma dress.





Rachel Weisz chose an unconventional black jumpsuit by Narciso Rodriguez to promote the film "The Lobster". I loved her choice!

Diane Kruger wore the cutest light blue dress by the latest collection of Dolce & Gabbana with Jimmy Choo's shoes for the photocall of her upcomin film "Maryland".

Salma Hayek wore a thight black dress with red roses in the morning but later she chose an Alexander McQueen gown for attending  the "Tale of Tales" premiere.

And here we are to my favourite: Emma Stone. In the morning for the photocall of "An irrational man", she wore this black chantilly lace dress by the genius Oscar De la Renta completing her outfit with four hoop ear cuffs. So Cute!
Later she chose Dior gown, a Jennifer Meyer stud, and a Repossi choker. So dreamy!

The festival was always criticize for not celebrating enough women in the film industry,in fact in 2012, there was not even a woman director in the competition, which is really sad.
For that the Cannes film Festival, this year chose to celebrate women making event the opening for "The year de la femme".
It had also organized UN's Women’s panel discussion on gender equality, where a lot of women could express their opinion about the sexism in the business.


Buuuut, did you heard the news? The Cannes Festival banned flat shoes, forcing all women on the red carpet to wear heels. I mean, if you're on a red carpet a good and gorgeous pair of heel, I think, it would be the perfect choice, but why the festival should put a dress code for shoes?? Why a woman attendant should not wear a glamourous pair of flats under her long dress?
Moreover, I didn't expect something like that, even when the Festival organized also a UN's Women's panel!
I really don't understand.


However, putting aside this and focusing on the main purpose of the festival.. Can you imagine be there, in that glamourous location full of culture and at the same time inspiring?
Well, I could!

That's all for now


Talk to you soon

It's Oscars time!

Finally! It's here! The Oscars are here!
And with them they arrived the bestest and waited outfits of the season!
Wow! Last night there were such  amazing dresses that I don't know where to start!
Btw, the main colors of the event were red with a touch of black and white; but of course there were someone who dared more with some different color.

Let's start from the big color: red!
In my opinion, with this dress, Rosamund Pike redeem all the previous "not-so-wow" outfits!
This  Givenchy red embroided dress was amazing! very elegant but modern at the same time. ROsamunf completed her outfit with Lorraine Schwartz jewels.

Now, its' Dakota Johnson' turn! Oh Anastasia you got it!
Dakota chose a bright red Saint Laurent with a jewelry and sparkly strap, all matching with Forevermark diamonds.

Here's another woman who completely won! Behati Prinsloo aka Adam Levine's super gorgeous wife and Victoria's secret angel. She wore a stunning dress by Armani Prive matching the tuxedo of her handsome husband.

Anna Kendrik chose a wonderful custom Thakoon dress with Brian Atwood shoes and Norman Silverman jewelry. She's lovely!

Lupita Nyong'o wore a white, open back custom gown by Calvin Klein with Nicholas Kirkwood shoes. The dress must weight a lot with all those magnificent pearls all over! But who cares.. it's fashion!

 
Jamie Chung remind me of a cute little princess with her Yanina Couture's gown. So sparkly and wispy! Love it!

Margot Robbie opted for a beautiful classic black dress. She wore a  Saint Laurent dress and Van Cleef & Arpels Jewelry.

 

Emma Stone chose perfectly like always! She never got it wrong recently! She always wear the perfect dress for the occasion.
Last night she wore a lively and sparkly lemon green dress by one of my favourite designer: Elie Saab.

But my favourite outfit of the night were the dresses wore by Chrissy Teigen, Sienna Miller and Zoe Saldana. They completely centred the point!
Chrissy Teigen wore a pastel light blue Zuhair Murad  dress with an amazing slit.
Loved her so much!

Sienna Miller enhanced a creation of one of the biggest and one of my favourite designer, the recently passed away and icon Oscar de La Renta. She wore a super elegant but simple black and blue dress by Oscar de La Renta with  Prada shoes, a Christian Louboutin bag and Forevermark jewelry. So chic!

But the best dressed to me was the beautiful Zoe Saldana. She was beautiful! I mean, she had twins not even two months ago! Look how she perfectly  fit that dress! 

She wore a custom Atelier Versace dress with Versace shoes and Neil Lane jewelry. Amazing!

I would die to look like her in that dress!

Here it is a little close up to a woman's best friends: diamonds! And not any diamonds but Harry Winston's 85 carats diamonds which Karolina Kurkova wore beautifully last night with her pale pink dress. Literally a dream!

Enough about fashion! Here's the winner of the Oscars 2015!
Eddie Redmayne won for the the leading actor, Julianne Moore for the leading actress and JK Simmons and Patricia Arquette for the best supporting actor and actress respectively. Congratulations!
