Lupita Nyong'o in Mary Katrantzou
This is so trips, and I enjoy how unique it is, but OH how I wish it had been a dress. As pants I think it makes her look stubby. Also, if I stare at her pelvis for very long, I'm afraid it will train me to cluck like a chicken every time someone says the word "umbrella."
Michelle Williams in Louis Vuitton
Michelle is actually giving this a huge helping hand, but the aggressively lopsided dresses like this look so weird to me. Like someone left the syrup on its side and gravity FINALLY sucked out a bunch of it in a stream onto the floor.
Reese Witherspoon in Ulyana Sergeenko
I have never once -- until today -- looked at an Ulyana Sergeenko and thought, "Oh, that looks like Draper James." Something about this one seems aggressively positioned to slot into Reese's aesthetic. Which is GREAT for Reese, but perhaps weird for Ulyana, who might not want a rep as a Draper James echo.
Aunjanue Ellis
This is hella kaleidoscopic.
Rebecca Hall
I know this event is sponsored by Tiffany, but a dress with a giant bracelet around your pelvis is RATHER on the nose... or, indeed, on the pelvis. This is not what we meant by NAB.
It's ALSO tremendously unflattering, but mostly it looks like she was product-placed.
Gemma Arterton
She looks great. YES, Fug Nation, I approve this pantsuit.
Bel Powley
Lord help me, but I don't hate this EITHER, but for how it ate her feet. The jacket looks like someone designed it to match an ornate cup and saucer.
Madina Nalwanga, Martin Kabanza
Madina is in The Queen of Katye with Lupita, and Martin plays her brother. They have an adorable OMG HOW IS THIS EVEN HAPPENING TO US look about them, and I hope they had a blast, and HOORAY for those silver shoes.
Gerard Butler
I think Gerard Butler is what everyone hoped Russell Crowe would be, right? Gruff, rugged, hot? I mean, maybe Russell was all those things for longer than I remember, but it seems like he hit a point where he was Done With It and I didn't realize that Gerard sorta slid in there and filled the void.
David Oyelowo
David is in the movie, also, and... I just think very highly of his abilities and hope he gets the recognition that was CRUELLY denied him for "Selma." Besides which he is delicious to behold, and the man knows how to work a sponsor wall.
