2014 Golden Globe Awards: Best Performance by an Actress in a Mini-Series or a Motion Picture Made for Television Wish List

Dame Helen Mirren is nominated for Best Performance by an Actress in a Mini-Series or Movie made for Television for her HBO movie 'Phil Spector' at the Golden Globe Awards next Sunday I love this woman because even at a grand old age of 68, she still knows how to have fun on the red carpet. Last year we saw Helen cut off all her hair into a pixie cut which she dyed cotton candy pink for the BAFTA Awards and wear plexiglass platform 'stripper' heels under her Elie Saab gown for the 'Red 2' premiere in Los Angeles. With all that in mind I truly think that this purple Reem Acra Pre-Fall 2014 gown with a beaded peplum top and flowing chiffon skirt would be the perfect look for Helen for the Golden Globes. Finish the look with a simple matching purple clutch, a quirky pair of shoes, and some stunning diamonds will make sure Helen catches the worlds eyes again.
Unlike Helen Mirren, Jessica Lange takes the graceful sophisticated older approach to dressing for the red carpet, which can sometime turn out the wrong type of looks. Jessica is again nominated for her work in American Horror Story. I have chosen this ink blue Badgley Mishka Spring 2014 RTW gown wish covers up her entire body except her arms. The simple design comes with a beaded patch on each shoulder to add a little dazzle to the look for Jessica. Jessica is one who likes to keep it simple on the red carpet when it comes to styling. I'd finish this look off with a pair of black Salvatore Ferragamo satin peep toe pumps and a statement cuff (like it was paired with on the runway) to complete this stunning ensemble.

2013 Emmy Awards: Oustanding Lead Actress in a Mini-Series or Movie Wish List

After faltering from red carpet looks that I love Helen Mirren worked the red carpet and promotional trail for her film 'RED 2' last month and I am hoping that she keeps it up coming next month at the 2013 Emmy Awards. As an Academy Award winning actress Helen is one of our hopefuls to bring couture to the red carpet at this event as she is nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Mini-Series or Movie for her HBO film 'Phil Spector.' I think that this dove grey Elie Saab Fall 2013 Couture gown would look fantastic on the 68 year old actress. This year Helen has really decided to have fun on the red carpet. At the 2013 BAFTA Awards Helen debuted her pixie cut in a bold way with sugary sweet bubblegum pink hair and at the LA premiere of 'RED 2' under her teal Elie Saab gown she wore plexi platform stripper pumps. The youthfulness of this look comes courtesy of an open back that many actress over the age of 45 or 50 would run the other way from but I do not think that this would be the case with Helen. A silver Edie Parker clutch and who knows what shoe could be anything from her plexi stripper shoes to a pair of elegant silver sandals we would just have to wait and see what she pulls out of her hat at the Emmy Awards next month.
Jessica Lange has never been a person that I really look forward to seeing on the red carpet because she usually leaves me indifferent to her looks but I am still going to shoot out a wish for her for the 2013 Emmy Awards where she is nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Mini-Series or Movie for he role in the FX mini series 'American Horror Story: Asylum.' This series keeps reinventing itself every season with a whole new story line and characters with just a few members of the cast transferring from season to season. Jessica has been one of those stars that has been with the series from the start. For the 2013 Emmy Awards I would love to see Jessica wear this sapphire blue Georges Hobeika Fall 2013 RTW long sleeved gown. Unlike Helen Mirren, at 64 Jessica likes to cover up on the red carpet and she tends to look pretty just not anything spectacular. A black clutch and a pair of black pumps would be the way that I finish this look off for Jessica for the 2013 Emmy Awards late next month.
The USA series 'Political Animals' ended up being a Mini-Series but it has still garnered star Sigourney Weaver a nomination for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Mini-Series or Movie for her role in the series. For this red carpet I would love to see Mrs Weaver wear this Zac Posen Fall 2013 RTW burgundy gown. I think that this is just a simple and sophisticated look for the 63 year old actress. I do not know whether or not I would pair this dress with the cape or not just because I am not sure if its too gimmicky for Sigourney. Many of my long time readers will know that I LOVE a cape on a dress but I am leaning more towards removing it for this look. A dark metallic grey clutch and a pair of matching burgundy pumps would be the way to finish this look with maybe a few select Fred Leighton jewels around the wrist and maybe in the ear.

2013 Screen Actors Guild Awards Wish List: Best Actress in A TV Drama

In Hollywood in the days leading up to the Golden Globe Awards the Prabal Gurung Pre- Fall 2013  collection had several red carpet outings. For the 2013 Screen Actors Guild Awards I would love to see Claire Danes wow me like she did at the Globes in her red Atelier Versace gown a mere month after giving birth to her son. I think that she would do just that in this stunning sleek white and black gown from the Prabal Pre- Fall collection. Finish the look with an aqua clutch, black sandals, and dazzling diamond jewelry. 
After wowing me at the Emmy Awards in a daring Giambattista Valli couture floral print ball gown, Julinana Margulies really disappointed me at the Golden Globe Awards in a too edgy Armani Prive Fall 2012 Couture gown. I am going to be extremely if this gown gets sent to the depths of the Armani Prive archives as the show for the Spring 2013 Couture collection is Tuesday. Finish this with a silver Jimmy Choo tube clutch, silver Jimmy Choo sandals, and a pair of diamond chandelier earrings and she will rock the red carpet and make me swoon.
Jessica Lange is one woman who definitely knows how to dress her age and I think that this emerald green Tadashi Shoji Fall 2012 RTW gown would be perfect for the 'American Horror Story' star who is nominated for her work in the series. I although would make sure that the dress is not too low cut. Finish the look with gold accessories and I could not be made a happier man.
Michelle Dockery gave me my first wow moment for her at the Golden Globe Awards wearing a white and gold custom Alexandre Vauthier Couture gown and I am hoping she keeps her fashion ball rolling for the SAG Awards. The Actress who is nominated for her work in 'Downton Abby' has a relationship with designer Ralph Lauren so I decided to put her in this 1920's inspired Ralph Lauren Spring 2013 RTW gown. I think that this gown would look stunning on Michelle who definitely should stick to these period inspired looks because she always looks so amazing in them. Finish this look with a black and red beaded clutch, black sandals, and simple jewelry.

2013 Golden Globe Awards Wish List: Best Actress in a TV Movie

Jessica Lange has been nominated for 'American Horror Story' once again. She took home the award last year and the supporting actress award at the Emmy Awards. I would love to see her wear this forest green Catherine Malandrino Pre-Fall 2013 gown. Jessica tends to favor sophisticated modern gowns and I think that this color would look fabulous on her. Finish it with gold accessories including a gold box clutch, gold pumps, and gold jewelry.
I am wishing for Julianne Moore to wear this french empire/greek toga inspired black Chanel Pre-Fall 2013 gown. Julianne wore a black Chanel Couture gown for the 2012 Golden Globe Awards but I think that this gown would look amazing on her. Finish this look with a gunmetal crystal embellished clutch, and some black peep toe pumps as well as some amazing diamonds Julianne (who will most likely take home the statue) will look absolutely stunning.
I go back and forth when I see Sienna Miller on the red carpet sometimes she looks expensive and boho but often she looks cheap and hobo. I am going to glamorous boho for the 2013 Golden Globe Awards by putting her in this white Ralph Lauren Spring 2013 RTW draped gown with a red rose hip embellishment. I think that this gown is right up Sienna's ally when it comes to her red carpet style. I hope she doesn't let me down in the styling department if she is to pick this gown. I would pair this look with a red hard plastic curved box clutch, silver Jimmy Choo 'Vamp' sandals, as well as some simple diamond drop earrings and this look is complete with a loose updo and a red lip.
Sigourney Weaver is a stunning woman who knows how to dress for her age on the red carpet. The 63 year old actress nominated for her work in the mini-series 'Political Animals' should call up Herve Leroux and order this grape juice purple Fall 2012 Couture gown for her appearance at the 2013 Golden Globe Awards. I think that this gown would look stunning on Mrs Weaver from the way it drapes to the color that would look spectacular on her. Style this gown with a silver Judith Leiber crystal embellished clutch, silver black peep toe pumps, a pair of diamond stud earrings, a diamond necklace, and a diamond tennis bracelet and Mrs Weaver will make the peasants bow before her.

2012 Emmy Awards: Actress in a Miniseries or Movie Nominees

Ashley Judd will grace the red carpet this September at the Emmy Awards as she is nominated for her role in the ABC miniseries 'Missing.' Ashley has a very sophisticated sense of style so I would love to see her wear this amazing powder blue cap sleeved Oscar de la Renta Fall 2012 RTW gown. This would be the perfect choice for the star. Add a silver clutch, silver pumps, and some dainty antique earrings would complete this look.
Jessica Lange won both the Golden Globe and the SAG awards for her role in 'American Horror Story,' I am sure she is hoping to take home the Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a TV Movie or Miniseries. I would like to see the 63 year old actress wear this amazing black velvet Andrew Gn Fall 2012 RTW gown with balloon sleeves and a netting style neck. I think that this is the way an older celebrity should do covered up. Add a pair of black pumps and some simple black pumps and some beautiful diamond jewelry and the look is red carpet ready.
 This year Julianne Moore put on the face of political icon Sarah Palin for the HBO film 'Game Change,' and it has lead to her being nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a TV Movie or Miniseries. At the Critics Choice Television Awards in June, Julianne looked stunning accepting her award for the film in a black and white Jason Wu and I think that the midnight and navy blue Armani Prive Fall 2012 Couture gown that I picked for her to wear for the Emmy's would be a perfect choice for the star. I love this choice and think it would be amazing strapless for the star who should pair it with a matching midnight blue satin clutch, some navy strappy sandals, and some amazing sapphire earrings and bracelets.
Nicole Kidman debuted 'Hemingway & Gelhorn' wearing a stunning black and gold art deco Ralph Lauren Fall 2012 RTW gown and now she is going to wow us again at the Emmy Awards where she is also nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a TV Movie or Miniseries. I think that the Aussie beauty would look amazing in this white Atelier Versace Spring 2010 Couture gown with stunning crystal embroidery. Nicole would look stunning and statuesque in this white gown paired with a matching silver clutch, silver strappy sandals, as well as some stunning Fred Leighton jewels.
