Gemma Cartwright writes…
Sunday night is the 84th Academy Awards, and stars will be pulling out all the stops for their Oscars red carpet moment. The night never ever fails to bring us a handful of fashion surprises, but a single thing we can guarantee is that you will have an amazing night if you enjoy glamorous gowns!

In my function as resident Oscars specialist, I usually predict what I believe folks will wear, and while they usually pull a thing new and thrilling out of the bag to prove me incorrect, it really is still fun to guess.

The A – Z of Award Show Fashion – red carpet style rundown
As we approach the middle of the madness that is awards season, we take a look at what we think makes up the A – Z of red carpet style at these big star-studded events (yes, we even found a Q and an X)…
A is for Academy Awards

The Academy Awards is undoubtedtly the biggest awards show on the red carpet calendar and thus the most glamorous. Film stars from across the globe flock to Hollywood’s Kodak Theatre to celebrate the year’s best performances, dressed in their very best couture. Designers clamour to dress nominees and presenters, as the publicity is worth millions.
The White Dresses From 2012 SAG Awards Red Carpet
Even though you could hear differently, the true dominant color on the 2012 SAG Awards Red Carpet was white. White – ish, neutral. As the 2012 edition of the Golden Globes showed us already, the Red Carpet tendency is towards neutral and white. And last night’s ceremony was no exception to the trends.
If I’d had to choose a preferred, I’d absolutely go for Viola Davis in Marchesa. And Zoe Saldana in Givenchy Haute Couture. Both of them took my breath away. There was even an awkward sartorial moment with Julianna Margulies and Katrina Bowden. The dresses they were wearing had been heartbreakingly related. Only they had been various. In particulars and label (Julianna was wearing Calvin Klein although Katrina Bowden was wearing Amsale.

The Black Dresses From 2012 SAG Awards Red Carpet
Leading the black dresses pack was, undoubtedly, Emma Stone. It’s a subjective opinion, biensur, my fashperspective getting totally blindsided by Emma herself – I genuinely like her and particularly by the reality that she’s wearing Alexander McQueen. However, I can’t deny that Angelina Jolie comes in a dangerously close second position. But then again, she’s always amongst my favorites on any Red Carpet. And that’s surely not only because of her outfits.
However, considering that the black dresses were so nicely represented on the 2012 SAG Awards Red Carpet, I had to pick a very best from the rest, aside from my already mentioned weaknesses. And here I go, once again selecting two dresses: Stacy Keibler’s black lace Marchesa and Jayma Mays black sequined Reem Acra.

Shailene Woodley In Valentino – 2012 Producers Guild Awards

After having such a great start to award season, Shailene Woodley arrived at the 2012 Producers Guild Awards on Saturday in Beverly Hills, California wearing a look which fails to excite.
She wore a Valentino Pre-Fall 2011 black velvet dress which isn’t particularly flattering.
The look may have been improved had she opted for the roped belt as worn by the model, but I think I’m just clutching at straws here.
