BAFTAs Fug Carpet: Imogen Poots

BAFTAs Fug Carpet: Imogen Poots

Let's award points for the color. I am then going to retract said points for the torso triangle, the bandaged effect around it, and all the little fangs hanging off her waistband -- perhaps they are icicles, in an ode to the polar vortex -- as well as for the

BAFTAs Fug Carpet: Alicia Vikander

BAFTAs Fug Carpet: Alicia Vikander

This one is from the Chanel show that Karl Lagerfeld did in Dallas, and I've decided he's punking us with it. It feels more like a vaguely Southwestern screen-saver that someone put out in 1999, to try and combat the appealing hilarity of Flying Toasters.

BAFTAs Well Played: Naomie Harris

BAFTAs Well Played: Naomie Harris

Before you ask, it does not appear that Idris Elba was at this event, which is obviously a brutal tragedy for anyone with eyes. However, Naomie Harris's dress was pretty easy on them: The color story here -- wow, can you tell we were just at Fashion Week? I

BAFTAs Fug or Fab: Gillian Anderson

View the gallery She got out a lot this weekend for the BAFTAs. The first dress is vintage Balmain and I've sat with it for a while now and I've decided that the dress is interesting, but needs careful styling and the right woman to wear

BAFTAs Fug or Fun: Lily Allen

BAFTAs Fug or Fun: Lily Allen

I have no idea why Lily Allen is at the BAFTAs, but I'm glad she's back out and about, and this dress really says, "I AM OUT AND ABOUT:" She looks like a Valentine come to life. It's totally over-the-top,

Well Played, Olga Kurylenko

Well Played, Olga Kurylenko

My favorite look from last year's BAFTAs was Burberry, and so is this very nifty one: It's slithery and serpentine and sexy and fabulous, and I wish it were in my life. If I can't wear the dress, I could at least tile my

BAFTAs Well Played: Oprah

BAFTAs Well Played: Oprah

I LOVE this picture: First of all, I always love her hair like this. Second, I appreciate that she's giving the photo pit some props -- at least, it looks like she's saying, "no, no, event photographers, it is you who are really working it. YOU.

BAFTAs Fug or Fab Carpet: Ruth Wilson

BAFTAs Fug or Fab Carpet: Ruth Wilson

I deeply appreciate her for trying something unusual, and I actually wish Blanchett had done this: I'm not sure I'm feeling the metallic cummerbund, which looks like a fancy frog puffing up its stomach, or a piece of womb-armor. (That's not speculation, by

BAFTAs Fine or Fab: Amy Adams

BAFTAs Fine or Fab: Amy Adams

This dress is by Victoria Beckham, and it's...it's fine, right? It's pretty enough, and her face looks great, but feels kind of like Amy's just treading water before the Oscars. I think we're hitting the point in awards season

BAFTAs Fug or Fab: Cate Blanchett

BAFTAs Fug or Fab: Cate Blanchett

For the BAFTAs, La Blanchett chose Alexander McQueen, and it's not fug at all, really. It's at least fine: It's actually rather pretty and also utilitarian and simple -- it covers her body, it clings, it has a couple ornate touches but nothing suffocating, nor

BAFTAs Unfug or Fab: Elizabeth Olsen

BAFTAs Unfug or Fab: Elizabeth Olsen

First, I want to discuss the nefarious black-gloved hand that is photobombing this picture. She's looking all glamorous and healthy-haired, and then some dude behind her is passing photocopied national secrets with the nonsense code phrase, "I've always thought giraffes were the ones
