2014 BAFTA Awards: Amy Adams, Cate Blanchett, and Lupita Nyong'o Wish List

Tonight are the Grammy Awards but here at If I Was a Stylist we are already moving on to the 2014 BAFTA Awards. It has been a really quiet time on the red carpet with the movie stars as they are all taking a breather to just relax in the eye of the storm before the gear up for the end of February and the end of Awards season. On February 16th the elite of Hollywood will fly out to London for the BAFTA Awards and the first person on my list is Amy Adams. Amy has really been having a wonderful run on the red carpet and has worn all the colors that I am praying to see her in but green and purple so I am hoping that for the BAFTA's we will see Amy don one of these colors. Being nominated for Best Leading Actress for 'American Hustle' I think that this purple Oscar de la Renta Pre-Fall 2014 strapless gown with a high low hemline. I think that this gown delivers quite the statement and after a black gown at last years BAFTA's I am hoping she does color this year. I also love the shocking pink pop of color on the underside of one of the layers on the skirt. Finish this look with a pink satin clutch, a pair of very simple black sandals, some stunning diamond chandelier earrings, and a statement diamond bracelet and Amy will be ensured a stunning red carpet moment.
There has not been a single look that Cate Blanchett has worn during awards season that has disappointed me. I love this woman as she isn't afraid to take a risk on the red carpet. Last week Marco Zanini presented the first collection that will be going into production for the House of Schiaparelli during Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week. The buzz amongst fashion insiders is in regards to who will be the first lady to get her hands on the Schiaparelli Spring 2014 Couture collection and I think that BAFTA Best Leading Actress nominee Cate Blanchett should be that honor. I think that this grey Schiaparelli Spring 2014 Couture blouse and skirt embellished with gold embellishments would be the perfect ensemble for the first red carpet moment for the brand and who better than the red carpet queen. Finish the look with a gold clutch, a pair of gold pumps, and her hair worn up and sleek to ensure the perfect red carpet debut.
The other woman on the red carpet that hasn't let me down this awards season has been newcomer Lupita Nyong'o. Lupita has worked some gowns that I know many other women in Hollywood would run the other way from and done so with great aplomb. Lupita is nominated for 'Best Supporting Actress' at the 2014 BAFTA Awards and I am hoping that the actress represents a British brand on the red carpet. This buttery yellow Burberry Prorsum Spring 2014 RTW draped dress with a knotted hip detail and an embellished one shoulder strap would make for the perfect red carpet look if it was modified into a long gown with a flowing train trailing behind it. There is always one Burberry look on the red carpet, last year it was on Anne Hathaway, and this year I am hoping to see it on Lupita. Finish the look with gold sandals and a gold clutch and Lupita will have a perfect look for her very first BAFTA Awards red carpet.
