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.

A thing unusual for the Red Carpet (at least lately): Rose Byrne. She was wearing a white jumpsuit from Elie Saab and her hair, she mentioned, was inspired by Michelle Pfeiffer circa Scarface. Intriguing, isn’t it? She was wearing it nicely, anyway! And so was Tilda Swinton who was wearing a white draped Lanvin dress. And who was at the exact same table as Angelina Jolie – they were like day and night! One particular dressed in shiny black and the other in bridal white. Intriguing!

The charming Berenice Bejo (who I’m dying to see in The Artist!) was dressed in Ralph Lauren. Nonetheless, one thing put me off about her outfit and I can’t really put my finger on it! Can you? I could go on like this, but I’m afraid the other white wearing ladies had been too bridal for my taste. There was also a handful of soft gray hues or other pale tints which were included in this “white” category: Octavia Spencer, Naya Rivera and Lea Michele are just an example of that. Also including two black &amp white dresses: Maya Rudolph in Naeem Khan and Emilia Clarke in Chanel.

Kelly Osbourne’s Badgley Mischka – fascinating but not my kind Kaley Cuoco’s Romona Keveza – bridal snowball Jenna Ushkovitz’s Rebecca Minkoff white flowery – completely unflattering Naya Rivera’s pale gray Naeem Khan dress – easy and nice Gretchen Mol’s white L’Wren Scott dress – those golden patches ruined everything! Sarah Hyland’s white – ish Temperley London – beautiful, even though it reminds me of Miley Cyrus so I don’t assume that’s a very good sign general Judy Greer’s white Collette Dinnigan dress – bridal much? I’ll let you to the gallery, tell me who I’ve missed, please? (the pictures come from right here)
