BAFTAs: Fashion hits, misses & the Hot-Man Buffet

bafta_arrivals_3_wenn2748538

I hate to say it, but I think Kristen Stewart might have been one of the best dressed women at the BAFTAs. I know, I know, she gives off the snotty, bratty, Gwyneth Paltrow-vibe. But the girl still rocks the frocks, and I loved this simple strapless cocktail dress that is both appropriate for the occasion and for Kristen’s young age.

Carey Mulligan is one of my worst dressed, just because she did the exact opposite of Kristen. Carey aged herself terribly with this disaster, and Carey hasn’t yet learned that however beautiful the detailing of this dress was, it gets totally lost on a red carpet, and in photographs. Instead, it just looks matronly and dull, and not unlike an IKEA shower curtain.

Let’s move on to one of the hot guys, shall we? Here’s Jonathan Rhys Meyers… mmm. He came with his girlfriend Reena (dammit!) and this was one of the few non-crazy-eyed photo I found of him. He looks good, doesn’t he?

And here’s Clive Owen. Sigh… I don’t really have anything to say other than “Thank you Jesus.”

Just because it’s funny, let’s have Robert Pattinson next, right after Clive Owen. Sparkles McVadge-Hater was working a new hair style last night, which leaves me cold. I guess he’s trying to grow out his hair, maybe? Or was this little-boy/wet-look hair always lurking around? He looks about 12 years old:

I don’t get Kate Winslet’s dress at all. It looks very cheap to me, and I’m so disappointed. She rocked the red carpets last awards season, and it’s like she’s trying too hard this year to be non-descript.

Speaking of non-descript, Claire Danes. God, I hate this nude/beige/pale silver movement in fashion. Those colors wash out 90% of women, and Claire is not one of the lucky 10% who look fabulous in that color.

Here’s Colin Firth with his wife Livia. She looks thrilled, right? Buck up, Livia! You’re married to one of the most fabulous men on earth!

I didn’t even recognize Guy Pierce at first. He looks good, though. Sigh… I love him. One of the most talented and underrated actors ever. His shaved head looks awesome!

Saoirse Ronan is such a pretty little thing. I kind of think this dress is too much for her, but she’s so pretty, I’ll forgive it.

Prince William is looking very James Bond in his tux. And despite the recent controversy over whether or not he’s dying his hair, he looks pretty good.

Okay, I’m done! I’m sure I forgot a bunch of people (like British star David Morrissey, who is yum), but those are all the big names. Not so great fashion, but lots of good-looking men!

    That’s it! I’m convinced. Kate Winslet has had something done to her face. Every pic I’ve seen of her in the past week, she looks “refreshed”.

    I think it’s injectables and botox. Something with her cheekbones and eyes for sure.

  2. Praise St. Angie! says:

    see, now, I LIKED Winslet’s dress…agree on the “refreshed” look, though…

    re: Pattinson…yeah, the hair looks like he didn’t have time to style it – like he just jumped out of the shower. but what REALLY needs work on him? the EYEBROWS! they need some serious grooming. meh, I’d still hit it.

    re: Kristen Stewart…I don’t get the Paltrow-goopy-snotty vibe from her. what I think it is is a combo of her smoking up (I’ve heard she likes the MaryJane) and insecurity.

    I think it’s more of a “I feel like I’m WAY out of my element” rather than “I’m SO above this crap”. The way she’s standing says it all.

  3. The Queen Bee says:

    I hate the way Kristen Stewart poses. It makes her arms look flabby and chunky and makes her body look boxy and square.

  4. Natalie says:

    Amy I agree. A wee wiff of Megan Fox about her face now. ‘Specially with that cheap looking dress. Better luck next time, Kate.

    And I LOVE Carey Mulligan’s dress, but I think her hair cut & colour need to go. She appears ill-proportioned above the neck.

    Kristen’s dress is so boring IMHO. If she is going to habitually forgo accessories, at least pick an interesting hairstyle or dress shape. Jeez.

  5. Celebitchy says:

    @Amy – yes Kate Winslet’s eyes are way too high! It’s possible she had too much botox.

  6. embertine says:

    I liked Carey Mulligan’s dress, but it would look better on someone curvier. plus the pixie cut REALLY looks bad in blonde. And is that really Claire Danes? Yeesh.

  7. canadianchick says:

    Love Claire Dane’s dress would look better on someone elase.

  8. city says:

    is it just me, or does it look like Kate has had some work done?

  9. canadianchick says:

    My text is still disappearing sorry for the typo as I can’t proofread.

  10. Hel says:

    If you hadn’t said that was Kate, I wouldn’t have recognised her! Definitely had something done.

    It was raining in London, maybe Robert got caught in the downpour.

  11. Ann says:

    Stewart best dressed? Is this a joke?
    Apart from her sullen depressed emo pissed of expression which is her usual self the dress looked cheep.
    It made her looke like a sausage, the upper part of her body especially her arms appear fett. The hair dirty and not for Red Carpet. She must have hit the bong before going there.

    The shoes must belong to a Vegas stripper.

    I liked Carey’s dress, Anna Kendrick’s yellow dress is one of my favourites.

  12. elina says:

    kristen steward and her orthopedic shoes…yuck! oh and kate definately has had something done to her face….look at her right eyebrow and how much higher it is than her left one.

  13. Lady Jane says:

    Kate is almost completely unrecognisable. I think it is something far more drastic than injectables – she used to have a very strong romanesque nose and now – she looks like everyone else. She injected something into her lips as well (slightly ducky) and her eyes are very slanted. And I hate her peach hair colour. Bitchy enough? I think I am ragging on her so much because I used to think she was gorgeous and unique.

  14. nikki says:

    agreed with every one :kate winslet has “a new face” and it’s not subtle and not very great a few “megan fox face”

  15. L says:

    I think the Kate picture might be because of a camera angle and her cocking her eyebrow at someone. If you look at her with Colin Firth in the ‘winners and losers’ BAFTA post, she looks much more like herself-nose and all.

  16. Meh says:

    LOL!!!
    Kristen didn’t rock sh!t. The dress and shoes were both ill-fitting. Are you blind?

  17. ien says:

    please, I’m begging you, stop comparing Kristen to GOOP. they are not the same.

    what in the world did Kate do to her face??? it looks soo tight.

  18. bo says:

    OHHH. Winslet has had work done!!! Even if it’s just that temporary skin tightening stuff, I see work!

  19. Chana says:

    With Kate Winslet it’s a bizarre angle. She looks normal in other photographs.

    Kristen Stewart best dressed? Are you mental?

    That dress looks like a cheap chavvy nightmare straight out of a bargain bin. It looks like a chav prom dress.

  20. LolaBella says:

    Jonathan Rhys Meyers…yum and YUM.

    Clive Owen is delicious and sexy.

    Sparkles McVadge-Hater (That made me gigglesnort, Kaiser) – Wow, what a difference the hair makes. He’s still a handsome young man, though.

    Colin Firth looks very handsome.

    I think that Kate Winslet was just toning it down so as not to take away the focus from the nominees; this is their moment not hers. Also, I think she’s had a really great facial not Botox or work done. Her skin looks rejuvenated to me.

    I like Carey Mulligan’s dress. It would have been better if it was not split down the front though; the piece underneath is totally distracting. It would have been a much better esthetic if the dress was a simple gown.

    Also, the too blonde hair is totally wrong on her.

  21. Ron says:

    Kristen Stewart looks like she was rolled in ace bandages and sprinkled with glitter from Micheals crafts.

  22. ana says:

    I watched it on TV and both Carey Mulliagan and Claire Danes looked amazing when they were presenting, their dresses looked beautiful and flowing as they were walking across the stage, but they look so different in these photographs.

  23. Chana says:

    Oh and Clive Owen: Phwoar.

  24. lily says:

    I love Kristen but that was not one of her better outfits. She looked like a deer in headlights most of the night poor thing. A bit out of her league and i think she knew it. She was very gracious and humble accepting her award anyway.

  25. Megan says:

    OMG yall Kate Winslet’s face was the first thing I noticed. It looks really “refreshed” and tight, like she just got it done the day before or somethin.

  26. maggie says:

    Kristen Stewart always looks like she’s a poster child for Prozac or Zoloft. No expression. Perhaps she’s uncomfortable at these events, but it’s her bread and butter. Maybe she’s a sweet girl, but she always looks as miserable at cat s**t. Also, as far as Robert looking like a 12 year old, he doesn’t. He looks his age. He’s up and coming and in the end, will have a great career.

  27. Camille says:

    K-Stew looks very uncomfortable. I don’t get a snotty vibe from her, more that she is very uncomfortable with the whole celeb thing. She will have to get used to it if she wants to stay in the entertainment business.

    Cary M looked awful. I hate the dress and I hate the hair, although the new colour looks better than the boring brown.

    John RM looks hot there. So does my crush Clive Owen. God I love that man. I was watching him in The International the other night and he looked absolutely gorgeous. I noticed his hair was dyed for that role too, so see people, Brad Pitt isn’t the only male actor to dye his hair for a role.

    Sparkles looks effing ridiculous. He looks like a drowned rat.

    Kate W looks sexy and gorgeous. Now THAT is how you do a split up the side dress *coughJenniferAnistontakenotescough*.

    Claire D who I normally think is so pretty, looks awful. I HATE her dress. Too much going on there and awful colour.

    Guy P looks terrible. And the Princes suit looked badly fitted.

  28. Aitch says:

    yeah, real real sad that Kate W. seems to have had her eyes done. sad and surprised.

    R Patz looks great, I am sure he wanted to do something different with his hair!

    Rhys-Meyers is HOT!

  29. Aitch says:

    ohh I almost forgot to mention uber-hot clive Owen.

  30. orion70 says:

    Jonathan Rhys Meyers does absolutely nothing for me, never has. Clive Owen however…. Rawr.

    Poor Kate Winslet has a face like Dieter on her in that pic.

  31. maggie says:

    rob is hot…it doesn’t matter if his hair is wet, dry or whatever…he’s hot. The beauty of it is that he has no idea that he is.

  32. I feel like cutting a meter or two from Carey’s dress and making a cute dress out of the extra fabric.

  33. Andrea says:

    Prince William and Jonathan Rhys Meyers are all I want for Christmas.

  34. Dhavy says:

    I hope KW doesn’t start looking like Nicole Kidman soon. I don’t know why these beautiful women have to over do it

    I think Clare Danes looks pretty but her dress is too busy

    All the men look hot but Guy Pierce needs to let it grow!

  35. coco says:

    kristens stewart dress looks nice but not on her, doesnt flatter her at all…

  36. Vintage Bags says:

    Prince William seems to be getting popular and be on the spotlight. He seems to be one of the best hunk for me..

    thanks for sharing this post.
