2016 Oscar Parties Red Carpet Wish Lists Part 8

Continuing on with my week of Oscar parties wishes today kicking off with Dita Von Teese. I am always interested to see what the stunning burlesque queen will wear on the red carpet. I am hoping that Dita will make an appearance at the Elton John AIDS Foundation Oscar Viewing Party wearing this amazing black Ulyana Sergeenko Fall 2015 Couture cocktail dress. This cocktail dress would make for an amazing red carpet moment on Dita with her stunning vintage beauty. I can picture Dita working the red carpet with her vintage inspired curls, signature red lip, the runways black fur pom-pom Christian Louboutin pumps, and a pair of diamond cluster earrings would ensure that this is an amazing r ed carpet moment for Dita.

I am really hoping that Gwen Stefani is going to make an appearance on Oscar night. Years ago Gwen made it through many red carpet moments on Oscar night wearing some of the best designers like Chanel Couture and Vera Wang. For this year's Vanity Fair Oscar Party I would love to see Gwen wearing this amazing fuchsia ombre Marchesa Spring 2016 RTW gown features a bird and botanical threadwork embroidered bodice with a tea length satin faced organza tiered skirt. When Gwen goes avant garde glamour on the red carpet I always fall head over heels in love with her look. I would finish this look off with a pair of black peep toe pumps, a black clutch, chic updo, red lip, and diamond cluster earrings to ensure that Gwen has an amazing red carpet moment.

I am betting that Oscar night is going to be a big night for Lady Gaga. Gaga is nominated for Best Original Song and I am really hoping that she takes the prize home. After the big ceremony, where she will also perform that nominated song, I would love to see Gaga change into this amazing Stephane Rolland Spring 2016 Couture jumpsuit which features an amazing crystal neckline and a dramatic train. This type of look takes a certain personality to pull off and Gaga definitely has the presence to make this look work on the red carpet. I would finish this look off for Gaga with a pair of diamond cluster earrings, silver crystal Christian Louboutin 'Daffodile' platform pumps, old Hollywood waves, red lip, and a lined eye to just top off what I am hoping will be another perfect red carpet moment for Gaga on Oscar night.

Naomie Harris has been on the red carpet at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party the past two years and I am hoping that she will be back on the Hollywood red carpet next Sunday night. I would love to see Naomi wearing this amazing Balmain Pre-Fall 2016 navy velvet gown with lace cut-out details. This look is a perfect red carpet moment waiting to happen. Like I said in a recent post, this Balmain collection has been my favorite from the brand in a very long time and I bet that we will see at least one look from the collection on the red carpet on Oscar night. Style this look with a navy Edie Parker clutch, navy peep toe pumps, old Hollywood waves, and a red lip would ensure that Naomie slays the red carpet at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party.

While she might be over in Europe on the fashion show circuit but I would love to see Olivia Palermo out in full force on the Vanity Fair Oscar Party red carpet. The fashionista knows how to work some amazing avant garde lady like looks on the red carpet. I would love to see Olivia wearing this yellow Sachin + Babi Pre-Fall 2016 high low bow accented floral embroidered gown on this red carpet. As the queen of red carpet accessorizing and I could picture Olivia pairing this gown with a yellow feathered clutch & gold sandals to just take this look over the top for an Oscar night red carpet.

2015 AFI Fest: "Queen of the Desert" Premiere Wish List

Nicole Kidman is killing the red carpets recently. I have a love/hate relationship with Nicole when it comes to her red carpet style and I am really happy that she has been churning out amazing look after amazing look. Nicole's latest film "Queen of the Desert" is part of the 2015 AFI Fest and I hope that she will give me a major moment on the red carpet. I think that this navy Ulyana Sergeenko Fall 2015 Couture jumpsuit is a perfect moment for Nicole and this red carpet. It will take someone tall to pull off this look and Nicole definitely has the height to make this look work. Finished with a pair of black sandals and a navy Edie Parker clutch this would be a major moment for Nicole to rock on the AFI Fest red carpet.

Lea Seydoux's "Spectre" International Promo Tour Wish List

The promo tour for the latest installment of the James Bond "Spectre" is about to start and I gotta say that I don't think I could be more excited. French star Lea Seydoux is part of the cast of this film and I am extremely excited to see what she is going to wear. I would love to see Lea make this promo tour interesting not wearing something by Prada or Miu Miu the entire tour. While Lea always gets her hands on the best of the best of Prada and Miu Miu I would like to see a lot of diversity. This black and white floral printed 50's inspired Christian Dior Spring 2015 Couture dress made ultra modern via the side cutouts. Lea has been front row at a few of Raf Simons Dior Couture presentations but has never worn the brand out on a red carpet, and what better platform to wear this beautiful creation other than the "Spectre" promotional tour. Finish the look with a sleek bun, red lip, and a pair of silver Christian Louboutin sandals to ensure that Lea gives us modern glamour for one of her stops on the "Spectre" promo tour.

I hope that Lea Seydoux is going to give us classic Bond femme fatale at least once during the course of her "Spectre" promo tour. I would love if she did so wearing this black Ulyana Sergeenko Fall 2015 Couture gown that features the brands signature extreme sweetheart bustier and forest green pleated tiered satin detail on the side. I think that this would be a beautiful sexy moment for Lea to wear on the road promoting this movie. This is the look that one would stereotypically see on a Bond girl. This 40's-esque midi gown paired with a pair of black Prada sandals, old Hollywood waves, and a red lip will continue to keep Lea on top of this promo tour.

Finally for my "Spectre" international promo tour wish list is for something that one might not immediately think of when it comes to a James Bond promo tour. This iridescent Louis Vuitton Spring 2016 (another quick typo sorry guys sometimes little things like that fall through when I am editing LARGE groups of people) RTW ensemble, which consists of a sleeveless blouse and a skirt with a mini skirt with exaggerated hips, is a perfect look if Lea wants to give us a very modern futuristic type of a look to break up all of the high glamour looks that we are sure to see her wearing over the course of this promo tour. I would keep this look very simple with a pair of silver Prada sandals, neutral makeup, and sleek hair to ensure that this look is about the dress and not over styled.

Jena Malone for "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" International Promo Tour Wish List

It was the red carpets for "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" and "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1" that really turned Jena Malone into someone to watch on the red carpet. I was not her biggest fan going into the "Catching Fire" tour and I slowly learned to love what the edgy star had to offer. I edited al of these lovely wishes for Jena with her blond locks in mind and after all was said and done I have learned that she has dyed her hair (AGAIN) and it seems like she will be rocking brunette locks for this promo tour. For the Paris premiere I would love to see Jena wear this Ulyana Sergeenko Fall 2015 Couture one sleeved embellished gown. I think that this gown is perfect for the edgy star because it mixes edge and glamour which is perfect for Jenna on the red carpet. A pair of blue metallic sandals, and the runways ball minaudiere are perfect ways to finish off this look.

I am PRAYING to the fashion gods that Jena gets her hands on one of the amazing looks from the Marc Jacobs Spring 2016 RTW collection. Jena rocks edgy bold looks like no other and I think that this red gown is perfect for Jena to wear on the red carpet in a city like Moscow or Madrid. The 1930's circus performer inspired embroidery on the bodice of this gown make is difficult to picture on anyone who doesn't have a bold red carpet presence and Jena has that perfect presence to make this gown work on the red carpet and not look like a costume. I would pair this gown simply with a pair of gold pumps to ensure that the dress is the focus of the look.

For the last look I am predicting for Jena for the international promo tour for "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" is this stunning 3-D floral embroidered grey blue Valentino Resort 2016 long sleeved gown. This is a very elegant peasant style gown that I would love to see Jena rock on the red carpet for a city like Berlin. Jena loves her some Valentino and we are bound to see her in at least one look for this promo tour and I think that this floral elegant gown makes for such an impactful red carpet moment for Jena. It should be simple nude sandals that finish this look since the gown itself is such a statement in itself.

Ulyana Sergeenko Fall 2014 Couture Presentation Wish List

Earlier this year Jaime King rocked Ulyana Sergeenko Couture for different events on Oscar week so it would not come as a surprise to see her seated front row at the Ulyana Sergeenko Fall 2014 Couture presentation on Tuesday July 8th. I would pick this ensemble from the Ulyana Sergeenko Spring 2014 Couture collection for Jaime to wear front row. The look consists of a white satin bustier and a pair of nude pink pants, I would not have her wear the blue silk robe.  A pair of red satin pumps and a red clutch would finish this look off perfectly for the front row with a red lip.

Rihanna has also rocked some Ulyana Sergeenko Couture this year, tho I was not really a fan of her boudoir inspired ensemble I would still like to see her seated front row at the Fall 2014 Couture presentation Thursday. I would pick this forest green bralet and champagne skirt ensemble from the Ulyana Sergeenko Spring 2014 Couture collection. This is sophisticated and sexy which is exactly the type of look I fall in love with from Rihanna. A pair of gold Charlotte Olympia platform pumps, gold cat eye sunglasses, and a gold clutch would finish off this look perfectly for the front row.

2014 Cannes Film Festival: 'The Homesman' and 'Le Meraviglie' Premieres Wish List

I was looking at premiere dates, as they were released just the other day, and 'The Homesman' and 'Le Meraviglie' are premiering on the same day. The first set of stars to take to the red carpet will be the cast of Tommy Lee Jones' 'The Homesman.' Hilary Swank is amongst the glamorous cast of the film and will return to the croisette for the first time since 2009. I am super excited to for Hilary to take to this red carpet because she is one of my favorites to see take to the red carpet. The moment I saw this black to silver embellished ombre gown on the Elie Saab Spring 2014 Couture runway livestream I yelled "HILARY SWANK NEEDS THIS GOWN,' and the Cannes Film Festival is the perfect red carpet to make this paring since she wasn't at the Academy Awards. A glamorous up do, a red lip, a black Edie Parker clutch, black Christian Louboutin sandals, and a dazzling pair of Chopard diamond earrings will just make this look even more perfect.

If Meryl Streep flies to Cannes it will be her first appearance at the festival in YEARS, and I mean like 15+ years. I either love or hate Meryl's red carpet style and I am hoping that if Meryl takes to the croisette that she will deliver a stunning red carpet moment. I think that this Valentino Spring 2014 Couture long sleeve lace gown is absolutely perfect for the 64 year old actress to wear on the red carpet. I do figure that if Meryl does take to this red carpet that she will wear a custom Lanvin creation, but this Valentino is what I would pick for her from the current stock of available runway gowns. This gown doesn't need many accessories but I would add a brown/bronze Edie Parker clutch, a pair of brown satin pumps dyed to match would make this a perfect look for the Cannes red carpet.

Model and Actress Monica Bellucci will be premiering her new film 'La Meraviglie' at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival. Most known for being a face of Dolce & Gabbana I am sure that the Italian model will select a gown from the brand. I think that this black silk and sequin Dolce & Gabbana Spring 2014 RTW strapless gown would be a beautiful option for Monica to make even though I am sure that she will wear a custom made creation. As long as it isn't a mermaid bustier or mermaid lace strapless gown I think I will be okay with it but I really hope that Dolce goes all out in their creation for this festival taking inspiration for a bespoke piece from the Fall 2014 RTW.

Like I have continuously said in my posts over the next few days I am really wanting to see Sofia Coppola expand her red carpet horizons over the course of the 2014 Cannes Film Festival. If the jury takes to the red carpet during this premiere I have picked this navy blue and black Ulyana Sergeenko Spring 2014 Couture draped tuxedo inspired gown for Sofia to wear. This is very much in her color comfort zone but is much more formal than almost every single one of her red carpet ensembles to date, but this is Cannes where everything is bigger and better. Like with most of her looks a black Louis Vuitton clutch and simple black sandals will put the finishing touches on a simple but beautiful ensemble for the Cannes Film Festival red carpet.

In 2013 Christian Dior was throwing clothing at stars of every caliber that were taking to big red carpets, which helped the brand land the Red Carpet Designer of the Year in 2013. I do not think that that momentum has slowed down any in 2014 with 23 looks already sitting in my best dressed folder. I think of all the jury members in Cannes this year that Jeon Do-Yeon is the one that is most likely to snag a Christian Dior creation for the red carpet. On Wednesday of last week Raf Simons showed the Christian Dior Resort 2014 collection at the Brooklyn Navy Yard and I think that this tie-dye inspired gown with a black skirt and white, pink, and red on the blouse is a pick that would look stunning on Jeon. A pink clutch, black sandals, a pink lip and a vintage inspired up-do would make this look perfect especially if topped off with some stunning Chopard diamonds.

2014 Met Ball: Evan Rachel Wood, Jessica Chastain, Penelope Cruz, Reese Witherspoon, & Taylor Swift Wish List

Emma Stone for the 'The Amazing Spiderman 2' Promo Tour Wish List

The Promo Tour for 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' has already begun and I am super excited. Emma Stone has always been one of my favorites on the red carpet and the fact that the is back to being a red head already makes me that much more antsy for the big premieres to start. The date of the LA premiere of the film has not been announced yet but I am sure that Emma will make a statement on the red carpet. I think that this completely embellished navy blue and silver Armani Prive Spring 2014 Couture spaghetti strap gown would do just that. Emma knows how to make simpler silhouettes make huge impacts on the red carpet. A navy satin Prada clutch, a pair of navy Saint Laurent 'Jane' sandals, and a pair of awesome diamond chandelier earrings will be the perfect accessories for this look. Her hair pulled into a chic romantic updo, a bold red lip, and red nails would finish this look off and give Emma the perfect elegant statement for an LA premiere.

I figure Emma will take more of a statement in London, the home of avant-garde fashion. This powder blue Ulyana Sergeenko Spring 2014 Couture halter dress with a calf length bubble skirt that features a tuxedo inspired neckline and red dots on the hem. This is such a fun dress and I can see Emma making this look work off the runway. A pair of red Charlotte Olympia 'Dolly' satin pumps with a gold platform would be all that I add in the way of accessories for this dress as it is such a statement on its own. Another red lip but this look with a sleek pulled back bun would complete this statement making over the top look for the London premiere on April 10th.

While I am sure that there will be many premieres across Europe and Asia. I am only predicting looks for two premieres that usually get fancier looks. First up, Paris. I think that this goldenrod Marchesa Fall 2014 RTW draped cocktail dress with beaded shoulders would look stunning on Emma. This dress would compliment Emma's rouge hair and look sophisticated and elegant. This is a modern interpretation of the 1920's and I would style it as such. A gold chain handle minaudiere, a pair of gold sandals, hair in finger waves, and simple make-up will finish off this perfect look for Paris.

And last but not least I have a wish for Emma to wear this white Giambattista Valli Spring 2014 Couture long sleeved mini dress at the Berlin premiere of 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2.' This cute mini dress is elegant and sexy and flirty. The assortment of orange and pink florals scattered across the dress are a perfect way to add a youthful edge to this long sleeved lace dress. Fun accessories like pink sandals and an orange clutch would make this look perfect for this red carpet premiere. Her hair worn in a sleek straight bob and a bright pink lip would be the absolute perfect finishing touches for this premiere. I am really excited to see what Emma brings this promo tour. Will she be the Promo Tour Star of 2014? She has some hard company this year so far and to come, so we will see.

Runway Report: Organic by John Patrick Fall 2014 RTW

 Fashion week officially kicked off in New York City today and one of the first shows to take place was the Organic by John Patrick Fall 2014 Ready-to-Wear collection. A brand that we don't really see take to the red carpet and is more of a sportswear collection. I can see the street style photographers and paparazzi snapping pictures of all the fabulous celebrities wearing this collection as they do their errands and running around the worlds most glamorous cities. There really was such a mix of styles that walked the runway. Sophisticated, minimal feminine looks paraded down next to urban masculine looks. Each look was accessorized with a pair of white, black, or silver flat ankle boots.

2014 Berlin International Film Festival: 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' Premiere Wish List

Wes Anderson films are no stranger to a film festival premiere, his last film 'Moonrise Kingdom' staring Tilda Swinton opened the 2012 Cannes Film Festival, and his latest film 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' will be screened at the 2014 Berlin International Film Festival. Lea Seydoux is one of the bevy of beauties in the film that might take to the red carpet. Hot off her 2014 Cesar Awards nomination for 'Blue is the Warmest Color' I am praying for a major red carpet moment from her for this premiere. Ulyana Sergeenko doesn't seem to lend out her couture creations very often and never seen the brand on a mainstream American star and I think that this stunning hunter green bustier with its iridescent ruby mermaid skirt from the Ulyana Sergeenko Spring 2014 Couture collection. This gown has to be one of my absolute favorite looks that came down the runway at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week last month and I am praying for a major red carpet moment from this gown. Finish the look with a pair of ruby crystal encrusted sandals, a red lip, and a sleek updo hairstyle will make this the perfect Berlin Film Fest premiere ensemble.

Saoirse Ronan is also in 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' and I could totally see the stunning Irish actress taking to the red carpet in Berlin in this stunning Valentino Spring 2014 Couture gown embroidered with a jungle scene. This is definitely a gown that needs to be presented on a foreign red carpet because the beauty in this gown would be lost on a red carpet in the United States as it is too conceptual. Finish this look with a pair of gold sandals and a red clutch and Saoirse will have the perfect look for her big night in Berlin.

Last but not least we have Tilda Swinton. No stranger to the Berlin Film Festival I am praying for a stand out look from the androgynous beauty for the premiere of 'The Grand Budapest Hotel.' Since last years Cannes Film Festival we have seen Tilda take to the red carpet wearing a lot of Chanel and was seated front row at the Chanel Spring 2014 Couture collection last month. I think that this iridescent ice blue Chanel Spring 2014 Couture shift gown will make for a perfect red carpet look is perfect for the beauty who works the odder designs perfectly. A pair of white pumps and neutral makeup will finish this look off perfectly for me.

Runway Report: Ulyana Sergeenko Spring 2014 Couture

Last year we saw a lot of the Ulyana Sergeenko Couture on the red carpet, especially during the Cannes Film Festival were the brand got three outings on Zhang Yuqi, Fan Bingbing, and Dita von Teese, as well as a small host of other celebrities at other events. I am hoping to see the love of this brand grow on the red carpet this year with a host of international beauties wearing this collection. Ulyana worked a very turn of the century look to 1940's ride on a summer version of the Orient Express into her signature deep sweetheart necklines and it turned out such a great success. I can see a bevy of beauties such as Zhang Yuqi, Dita von Teese, Angelina Jolie, Lea Seydoux, Marion Cotillard, Pace Wu, Natalia Vodinova, Fan Bingbing rocking this collection on the red carpet and street style stars like Rihanna, Lady Gaga, and Rita Ora wearing this collection whilst out and about running around the streets of the worlds chicest cities.

Best of Haute Couture Wish List

Alicia Keys has been giving me some amazing looks while performing this year putting her on the fast track to winning the Best Stage Style of 2013 Award. Alicia has worn some of Alexandre Vauthier's edgy looks before and usually wow's me when wearing these ensembles. I think that she would look amazing in this sculptural bustier and black pant ensemble for a performance.

Anne Hathaway has stepped onto the edgy train since she cut her hair as I know you are all aware as I keep saying it. Well it is because of this that I now really see her as a Versace girl. I think that this black Atelier Versace Spring 2013 Couture gown would look amazing on Anne and of course I would have the fur epaulettes removed.

Marion Cotillard has been stepping out of her Dior box for the non-major red carpet events lately and has been wearing a lot of looks by Bouchra Jarrar. I think that this black embellished bustier and navy pant ensemble from the Bouchra Jarrar Spring 2012 Couture collection would show us the sexy edgy side of Marion that we don't get to see very often.

Emma Stone has been a Chanel girl for quite some time never becoming a spokesmodel just a huge fan and I think that this white and floral gown would look stunning on the actress for a big red carpet event.

Diane Kruger is one of my absolute favorites on the red carpet always wears some of the most amazing couture looks that most would run the other way from. I think that she would be one of the very few that could rock this yellow Christian Dior Spring 2013 Couture gown. I think that this gown with the sheer illusion panel and this gown would take someone with Diane's diva attitude.

I do not think that this white Elie Saab Spring 2013 Couture gown will make it far into the year because of just how stunning it is, if its not at the Oscars it will be at the Cannes Film Festival. Eva Longoria would look absolutely stunning in this gown with or without the runway cape.

Zhang Ziyi has been stepping out on the red carpet a lot and recently had been going for a mix of either really edgy looks or very princessy looks and i think that this lime green Georges Chakra Spring 2013 Couture ball gown is a perfect mesh of these two styles and I think that she is one of the few that could pull this gown off.

Cate Blanchett has been working the red carpet like it owes her money lately and I think that she would look absolutely amazing wearing this silver Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2013 Couture gown. This would be perfect for a movie premiere, film festival, or awards show.

Dita von Teese has been one of my absolute favorites on the red carpet because she brings this look of classic Old Hollywood. She was seated front row at the Ulyana Sergeenko Spring 2013 Couture show last week and this black and white gown would look spectacular on the stunning burlesque beauty.

And rounding out this top 10 is this pale gold and white Zuhair Murad Spring 2013 Couture baroque print ball gown to be worn by Kate Beckinsale. Kate has worn some amazing prints that most would run the other way from on the red carpet and I think that this gown would look amazing on her.
