Red Carpet Rundown: Oscars 2014

,

Last night’s Oscars was, as it usually is for red carpet season, the culmination of months of careful image planning, runway-sample scheming, and signing of insurance forms for rental earrings that cost so much they require a red-carpet pass for the security guard specifically assigned to make sure the earrings are all right. Today, members […]

Red-carpet season continues across the pond, as London hosted the BAFTAs on Sunday! They’re always interesting, with a mixture of UK actors and Hollywood celebs and such a wide range of outfits that I feel as if the Stylists’ Guild classifies BAFTA as a free-for-all and just does whatever.

After a while tracking this particular costume competition event, you start to feel the general shape […]

(Melissa Leo, winner for Guest Star in a Comedy, in a really interesting take on a tux, plus a tiny yet bulky blue scarf that stylists probably had to restrain themselves from yanking off her whenever she passed by.) The Emmys were last night! I watched the whole thing so I could help The A.V. […]
