"The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" LA Premiere Wish List

So far Jennifer Lawrence's promo tour for "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" promo tour has been lack luster. For the promo tour for the final installment of a blockbuster film franchise JLaw has been really letting me down with her Dior gowns in Berlin and London. I have been wanting to see Jennifer wearing this black sheer chiffon evening gown with the strapless white sequin circle cocktail dress underneath. I think that this gown is sporty and glamorous and a perfect look for Jennifer. I was hoping that the Dior atelier would be turning out amazing custom gowns for JLaw in the post Raf world but I am still waiting for a wow moment. This gown paired with sleek slicked back hair, a bold red lip, and a pair of black sandals would ensure that this is a major moment for Jennifer on the red carpet at the "Mockingjay: Part 2" premiere in LA.
Elizabeth Banks its killing the promo tour for this film and I am excited to see what she is going to wear for the final premiere of the film in Los Angeles. The major Elie Saab Couture moment in Berlin and the modern meets classic pant gown at the London premiere and I am hoping for modern glamour at the LA Premiere. Elizabeth wore wearing Atelier Versace for the first "Hunger Games" premiere in LA and I am hoping that she ends this one wearing Atelier Versace bringing her journey full circle. It has been a hot minute since we have seen Elizabeth in a Versace design and I am really hoping that she rocks one since I don't think anyone, except for maybe Jane Fonda, rocks Versace like Elizabeth. This white sexy Atelier Versace Spring 2015 Couture fitted halter gown with sheer inserts. A pair of silver Jimmy Choo sandals, a white Edie Parker clutch, a pair of emerald and diamond drop Chopard earrings, and a red lip would ensure that this gown is perfection on the red carpet.
Jena Malone have a major princess moment at the Berlin premiere of "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" wearing Reem Acra and was M.I.A. at the films premiere in London. I am hoping that Jena will be back on the red carpet in LA on November 16. I would love to see Jena wear this vermilion orange Prabal Gururng Spring 2016 RTW halter gown which is very 90's and I think that Jena would rock this gown like crazy on the red carpet. Keep the styling simple with a pair of gold sandals, a gold metal box clutch, wavy bob, and some simple makeup so that Jena has a major moment for her last premiere for this series.
Julianne Moore has been slightly off her game while promoting "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" wearing black Jason Wu at the Berlin premiere (which was incredibly chic) and white Alexander McQueen in London. I am hoping that when she steps out in LA that Julianne pulls out all of the stops. This marigold yellow Giambattista Valli Fall 2015 Couture draped cape gown. This is a showstopping moment which is something that Julianne doesn't do while promoting these films but I wish she would as this would be an amazing red carpet moment. Finish the look with the runways strappy sandals, a chic updo, red lip, and a pair of diamond cluster earrings to keep this look from being overworked and Julianne will shine like the movie star that she is.
Broadway star and Tony Award winning actress Patina Miller has rocked a Zac Posen gown or two in her past red carpet appearances and I actually thought of her when this white Zac Posen Spring 2016 RTW flowing trapeze gown came down the runway. I think that this gown is edgy yet incredibly feminine which is one of the things that I expect out of a Zac Posen gown and Patina would rock the hell out of this gown on the red carpet. I would add a white leather waistband to add a little more structure to this gown because I don't think Patina quite has the height to make this gown work without a band and then add a pair of white sandals, old Hollywood waves, a red lip, and a pair of diamond cluster to finish off this look perfectly for this premiere.
Willow Shields wore a Marni gown at "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" premiere in Berlin that was just a little too grown up for the 15 year old actress. For the LA premiere I picked a much more age appropriate dress for her to wear. I think that this sweet light coral Monique Lhuillier Resort 2016 floral embroidered midi length cocktail dress which features a high round neck with a fitted bodice, a full tea skirt, and floral embroidery throughout. This is the age appropriate look that a 15 year old should be wearing on a red carpet. Willow has her whole rest of her life to wear sexy mature gowns, there are only a few years where she can get away with wearing a dress like this. A pair of silver strappy sandals, a silver clutch, and a pair of diamond cluster earrings would be the perfect accessories to finish off this look for the red carpet.

"The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" London Premiere Wish List

"The Hunger Game: Mockingjay Part 2" will premiere in London on Thursday November 5, 2015 and I am expecting a rather large celebrity turn out. The ladies, and gentlemen, of the series will surly be out in troves to mark the final London premiere for "The Hunger Games" franchise. Jennifer Lawrence, AKA Katniss Everdeen, is obviously going to present at the premiere and I gotta say I am quite intrigued as to what she will end up wearing. JLaw is a signed face of Christian Dior, but with the news this past week that Dior creative director Raf Simons is stepping down will Jennifer still have to wear Dior for EVERY red carpet? I guess this red carpet will be the tell. If she does wear Dior for this premiere I would love to see her wear this mauve Christian Dior Fall 2015 Couture strapless gown. This gown mixes sporty and feminine glamour which are the looks that Jennifer ends up rocking the most on the red carpet. This look paired with diamond cluster earrings, gold sandals, a gold clutch, fresh faced makeup, and a chic updo will ensure that Jennifer has a winning moment at this major premiere for her.
Elizabeth Banks has A LOT to live up to with what she wears on the red carpet for "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" premiere thanks to the Elie Saab Couture gown that she wore to the premiere of "Mockingjay Part 1" last year. The first promo tours for this franchise Elizabeth rocked orange for the red carpet and I think it would be nice to see her come full circle wearing this incredibly dramatic Marchesa Spring 2016 RTW sherbet to coral ombre gown which is rendered in textured tulle and features an ombre skirt with a feathered threadwork embroidered bird bodice. This is a bold statement, definitely something her character Effie Trinket would approve of. Elizabeth has the stature to carry this gown off, the question is will she go bold or will she let JLaw shine? Elizabeth should wear a pair of gold sandals, a pink lip, and a vintage inspired updo to ensure that she doesn't overcook this look as too many accessories or jewels will ruin this beautiful statement.
Red carpet rebel Jena Malone is one that I am looking at very closely to see what she is going to wear for the "Mockingjay Part 2" premiere. I absolutely adore Jena's edgy style and it breaks up what is usually a lot of pretty on the red carpet. I would love to see Jena brave London's cold and rock the hell out of this black sheer Schiaparelli Fall 2015 Couture gown which features a beautiful gold sunburst embellished embroidery on the bodice. This gown gives a very distinct 20's Erte art deco style and I think that Jena would look incredibly chic and sexy wearing this gown. Finish the look with old Hollywood waves, a gold clutch, a pair of black sandals, and a bold red lip to keep the vintage inspired air of this look going.
Julianne Moore has been consistently killing it this year on the red carpet and I hope that she finishes with a strong promo tour for "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2." Last year for the London premiere of "Mockingjay Part 1" Julianne wore looking stunning in a simple black Balenciaga cocktail gown, I am hoping for a little more drama when she takes to the red carpet for the "Mockingjay Part 2" premiere. I would love to see Julianne Moore wearing this Givenchy Couture gown that was presented alongside the Spring 2016 RTW collection. This gown is a re-envisioning of a gown that Riccardo Tisci first presented in his Givenchy Spring 2011 Couture collection and it has only gotten better. I love the brown ombre feathers on the skirt over the yellow that it was first crafted as. I think Juliane would kill this dark statement gown on the red carpet. Finish the look with a bronze clutch, a pair of bronze heels, old Hollywood waves, and a red lip and this look is for sure going to be one that people will be talking about the next day.
Gwendoline Christie is joining the ranks of the star-studded of "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" for the final installment of the series. I am learning to love what the incredibly tall actress, Gwendoline is 6' 3" tall, is wearing on the red carpet and am quite looking forward to what she is going to wear for this premiere. I would pick this white Osman Spring 2016 RTW halter neck caped gown for Gwendoline to wear on this red carpet. I think that this look is classic and modern all at the same time and Gwendoline would look innately regal wearing this design. Add a pair of silver sandals, finger waves, and a pink lip and this is for sure one of the chicest moments on the red carpet.  
Natalie Dormer, like Jena Malone, usually brings something edgy to the red carpet. For the "Mockingjay Part 2" premiere in London I would love to see Natalie wear this amazing Roksanda Spring 2016 RTW primrose yellow "Lexie" dress which features an asymmetric high neck and a layered fringe construction throughout with a flat back and a black belted waist. I think that Natalie is one of the few women that could make this type of avant garde gown work on a red carpet. Now if she decided not to wear the belt I think that she would get lost in the froufiness of this gown, but I believe that she wont. Finish the look off very simply with a sleek updo, red lip, black clutch, and black sandals to ensure that this gown is not overtaken by the styling and keeps its awesome impact.

"The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1" London Premiere Wish List

Ladies and gentlemen the time is upon us for the next slice of the "Hunger Games" trilogy, "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1," promotional tour. What does that mean? The cast of the film, which has more star power than the first two films, will be jetting around the world to the most famous of international cities to premiere the film, starting in London on November 11. Of course Jennifer Lawrence will be on hand as she is the star and heroine of the film. As the face of Christian Dior there is zero doubt in my mind that JLaw will wear any other brand but Dior. I have been waiting for Jennifer to wear this black chiffon Christian Dior Spring 2014 Couture sheer gown over a black and white sequin circle detailed gown since it was first presented back in January. This gown is what Jennifer needs to have a successful Dior look. This look is sporty but still elegant. With her short wavy bob, a red lip, an Edie Parker 'Fiona' faceted clutch in silver, and a pair of black sandals Jennifer would stun at the world premiere of the latest "Hunger Games" installment.
Julianne Moore is a newcomer to the cast playing the character of President Alma Coin in "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1." I am actually really excited to see Julianne join the rest of the cast on the red carpet because she always brings a glamorous edge to the red carpet. Having sat front row at the Ralph Lauren Spring 2015 RTW presentation I would love to see Julianne snatch up this silk safari inspired shirt gown. The mix of causality in the glamorous ball gown is a look that I think that Julianne would rock the hell out of on the red carpet at the "Mockingjay Part 1" premiere. Now to keep this look elegant and event appropriate I would pair this gown with a pair of gold sandals, a sleek up-do, a red lip, a pair of statement Bulgari chandelier earrings and bracelet filled with different precious stones in all the spectrum of jewel tone.
Jena Malone joined the "Hunger Games" cast last year with her role as Joanna Mason in "Catching Fire" and will be reprising the role in 'Mockingjay Part 1." We have really seen Jena come into her own on the red carpet in the past year. I was not really a fan of much that she wore last year on the "Catching Fire" promo tour but as of late she keeps making my best dressed list. For the London premiere of "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1" I would love to see the newly red headed actress wear this Zuhair Murad Fall 2014 Couture ensemble which features a white embellished tank and a black embellished wrap skirt. I think that this is the perfect mix of glamour and edge for Jena and this red carpet. There will be more opportunities for her to go left in other cities but the images of this premiere will be used for many many articles, reviews, and so on and so fourth. I would slick Jena's fiery locks back almost wet style, pair the look with a white Edie Parker 'Lara' clutch, throw on a pair of Christian Louboutin 'Valnina' sandals in black, and a pair of statement earrings in a bold color to finish off a perfect look for this premiere.
Elizabeth Banks has been a prominent cast member in the first two installments of the "Hunger Games" series. I do know that in the "Mockingjay" book her character Effie is only briefly mentioned but I am hoping that since they are bringing her her into the film that we will see Elizabeth make her way around the world to promote this film. I am sure that she will be on hand at the "Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1" premiere in London and I would love to see her wear this stunning black, mint and red J. Mendel Spring 2015 RTW one shoulder silk gown which has a stunning abstract print. I think that there are few people that could make this work in an elegant way and not go left with it. Elizabeth has the presence on the red carpet to be able to wear this dress and not let the bold print take over. Simple accessories like an Edie Parker 'Oscar' clutch in a dark sapphire blue, a pair of silver Charlotte Olympia 'Ursala' platform strappy sandals, simple Chopard diamond earrings would make sure that all eyes are on Elizabeth. An elegant wavy hairstyle and simple makeup are the finishing touches that I would add to this ensemble to ensure that EBanks makes a beautiful bold statement on the red carpet at this premiere.
Natalie Dormer is another new member of the ensemble cast for "Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1" and I have to say that I am really excited to see what she is going to bring to the red carpet come the London premiere next month. The British actress will undoubtedly pull out all the stops for the films world premiere on her home turf. That is why I have picked this soft orange Nicholas Oakwell Spring 2012 Couture chiffon draped gown with bold gold embellishments on one half of the bodice and a gold belt. I think that this gown is perfect representing a British brand at home for her first major film premiere. Accessorized with a Rauwolf 'Labryin' clutch and a pair of gold Nicholas Kirkwood metallic leather peep tow platform pumps and finished off with an elegant updo and fresh faced glowing makeup and Natalie will wow amongst the red carpet pros that are also in the cast.

2014 Toronto International Film Festival Wish List Part 2

Greta Gerwig is quickly becoming a fashion darling. This year alone she has worn custom Donna Karan Atelier, Lanvin, Theory, Narciso Rodriguez, and Stella McCartney, attended a few dinners hosted by Chanel, and was the date of Zac Posen at the CFDA Awards. This just makes me that much more excited to see what Greta is going to keep bringing to the red carpet. Greta will be making the film festival rounds promoting her film "Eden" starting at the Toronto International Film Festival. For the "Eden" premiere I would love to see Greta wear this green Stella McCartney Fall 2014 RTW strapless bustier and tapered pant ensemble. I love this bustier that features draping of not just fabric but the signature fringe of Stella's Fall 2014 collection. There have not been many successful outings of this collection but I do think that Greta can pull this look of with great aplomb. I would keep the styling simple with a pair of dyed to match forest green pointed toe pumps and a gold minaudiere clutch so that the focus is mostly on the stunning bustier.
While I have to say that I am most interested in what "Men, Women, & Children" leading male, Ansel Elgort, will wear for the TIFF premiere of the film, I am also hoping that Jennifer Garner will take to the red carpet to premiere the film as well. I tend to believe that Jennifer looks her best when she is wearing Oscar de la Renta and I am hoping that she will wear the designer for this premiere. Now I am sure that you will see this a lot on the blog in the coming days, but I figure that Jenn will grab a hot off the runway look from the designer as he is presenting his Spring 2015 Collection this coming week. If she wears something that has already been presented I would love to see her wear this blue and green polka dot on silk tulle Oscar de la Renta FALL (sorry it was a typo in the image editing) 2014 RTW collection. If I know Jennifer's style well enough I know that she would pair this look with a pair of black pumps and some simple jewels to finish off this look for the red carpet.
I know very little when it comes to Holliday Grainger's red carpet style and even less about her acting abilities. I do know that she is a British born actress who has had some rolls in "The Borgias" and "Great Expectations." Next year Holliday will have to hold her own on the red carpet next to Cate Blanchett while they promote "Cinderella" with Lily James and Helena Bonham Carter. I figure we will see Holliday represent a British brand when she premieres her film "The Riot Club" at TIFF this year. This strapless Nicholas Oakwell Spring 2014 Couture tea length gown embellished with white and pink beaded florals would be a sweet elegant choice for Holliday to wear for her first major major red carpet. I would finish this look with a pair of hot pink pumps and a sleek hairstyle to ensure that Holliday wears the gown and the gown does not wear her.
We are about to see a whole hell of a lot of Natalie Dormer on the red carpet. The "Game of Thrones" actress is presenting "The Riot Club" at TIFF and then will go on to promote "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1." I can honestly say that I am very excited to see what Natalie is going to bring to the red carpet coming up. For the most part Natalie has worn British brands on the red carpet and it will be interesting to see if she keeps it up. I am predicting that for the TIFF premiere of "The Riot Club" Natalie should wear this Roksanda Resort 2015 cocktail dress that consists of a bright yellow and navy sculpted one shoulder blouse and navy tone on tone pencil skirt. Natalie has the presence to ensure that this dress would overwhelm her. Paired with a pair of nude pumps, a sleek hairstyle, and a pink lip Natalie would rock the TIFF premiere of "The Riot Club"
We have not seen much of Amanda Seyfried on the red carpet since the 2013 Awards season where she promoted "Les Miserables" with the rest of her cast, so I was really excited to see her name amongst those that have films premiering at TIFF. When it is not Awards Season or the Met Ball we tend to see Amanda rock shorter lengths and that is probably what she will do when it comes to the TIFF premiere of her film "While We're Young" but I have remained optimistic and decided to pick this light sky blue Nina Ricci Resort 2015 gown with a shirred blouse. This is a simple gown that directly relates to Amanda's laid back sense of style. I could also see this gown being shortened to a cocktail dress if Amanda so deemed it worthy. A gold clutch and gold pumps would be the simple accessories that I would add for this gown. Finishing the look with a fresh face of simple makeup and a simple updo to showcase all the bodice detail would be the way to go to ensure that Amanda ends up on every best dressed list.
Naomi Watts has either made my heart skip a beat or made me want to hide my head in shame when she has taken to the red carpet this year. I am hoping that when she steps out for the TIFF premiere of her film "While We're Young" with Amanda Seyfried that Naomi makes my heart skip a beat. I would have that moment if she were to wear this stunning cream Altuzzara Resort 2015 draped gown. It looks as if the fabric that this gown is made in is very stiff and I think that means that it has to be impeccably tailored for Naomi so that it doesn't end up looking like a giant potato sack on Naomi. If she has this gown tailored and pairs it with a statement gold sandals and a gold clutch, sleek hair, and a red lip then I believe that Naomi would shut down the TIFF red carpet with a stunning ensemble.
