Golden Globes Red Carpet 2012 Best & Worst Dressed List (PLUS Vote to Win!)

Posted by ChickAdvisor Team | Monday January 16, 201289 comments


We're officially in Awards Season and here at ChickAdvisor we've caught the bug! We can't get enough of gorgeous red carpet fashion and last night's Golden Globes was definitely THE remedy for our fashion cravings. Of course, not everyone hit our Best Dressed List: like any award show, there was the good, the meh and the Just Plain Wrong.

Alexandra's Picks: Top 3 Best Dressed


Evan Rachel Wood, Nicole Kidman, Sofia Vergara

Alexandra absolutely loves the green jewel tones in Evan Rachel Wood's dress: the feather, scales and sequins are a bit extreme, but she's all about the impact they make. Alexandra thinks Nicole Kidman is simply stunning in this ivory and sequinned column dress. Lastly, Alexandra says: "every time I look at Sofia, I think, 'Dayummmmm gurl!' She has some major hot curves in this number."

Claire's Picks: Top 3 Best Dressed


Kate Winslet, Tilda Swinton, Shailene Woodley

Claire loves Kate Winslet in this chic black and white gown; the jewelled belt cinches in her waist to show off curves. Tilda Swinton often takes red carpet risks and this one paid off in spades; Shailene Woodley's embellished gown is pretty, feminine and perfectly suited to her age and figure. 

Honourable Mentions 
 

Rooney Mara, Emma Stone, Salma Hayek

Rooney Mara's cut-out dress adds visual interest and drama, but the black colour is a bit funereal for us. Emma Stone's gorgeous wine taffeta dress gets huge props for the slit and plunging neckline-- what's up with the belt?  Salma Hayek is glittering and gold in this number, though the overall effect with sequinned bottom is a bit much.

Love/Hate List 


Charlize Theron, Lea Michele, Angelina Jolie

Then there are the polarizing choices that no one can really agree on (including us at ChickAdvisor HQ). Claire says 'Yay' for Charlize Theron but Alexandra protests 'Nay' for the asymmetrical hemline. Lea Michele gets Thumbs Down from Claire, but Alexandra defends the gown's pattern and silver glitter. Alexandra is in love with Angelina Jolie's sleek satin number but Claire thinks Angie looks chill (not in a good way). 

The Undecided 


Dianna Agron, Claire Danes, Zooey Deschanel

We're waffling on these next 6 gowns (above and below)Dianna Agron's too busy, Claire Danes was ho-hum in front but va-va-voom from behind, and we're genuinely conflicted about Zooey Deschanel.


Mila Kunis, Natalie Portman, Jessica Alba

Mila is a beautiful woman, but this dress does absolutely nothing for her.  We adore Natalie but find this dress a little plain, while we want to love Jessica's bejewelled number but. just. can't.

Worst Dressed Picks
 

Sarah Michelle Gellar, Kelly Osbourne, Michelle Williams

Yup, we're going there: these gowns gave us the blues.


Madonna, Meryl Streep, Amanda Peet

The Material Girl takes her moniker just a little too seriously, Meryl is dowdy, and Amanda Peet looks like wedding cake.

Now it's your turn: help us settle our disagreement over Best Dressed and in return, we'll award one random commenter with a prize!

Choose Alexandra's Best Dressed Picks, Claire's Best Dressed Picks, or feel free to tell us we're both off our rockers below in the comments.  You have until Sunday, January 22 (2012) to post your choice.

Elle Macpherson was a true beauty of vision. Her gown is undescribable, and the bangles that she wore were the perfect accent to the dress!! :)

Definately Nicole Kidman is my top choice but I also like Jessica Alba.

I actually think the best dressed was one you didn't mention (or if you did, I missed it) - Reese Witherspoon. Her new marriage really agrees with her!

Nicole Kidman looked stunning! There were a lot of questionable outfits of there though... sometimes it makes me wonder do celebrities REALLY think they looked good in them?

I have to go with Alexandra's picks because I do love Sophia's dress but honourable mention to Emma Stone? I love her unique look and her make-up was fabulous! My best friend is getting married in October and despite not being in the wedding, I have been inspired by some of these dresses. I intend to look smoking hot at her wedding.
