Fashion at The BAFTA Awards
The British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) announced its 2010 winners yesterday during a ceremony at London’s Royal Opera House.
The biggest victory of the night? Kathryn Bigelow’s movie, The Hurt Locker won her Best Director! She is the first woman to receive that particular award in the history of BAFTA. The surprise upset of the night was that The Hurt Locker also won for Best Film and beat out Avatar! I always enjoy it when awards show keep people on their toes with unexpected wins!
Although awards shows exist primarily to give movies and actors accolades, it is also a great excuse to examine who was the most fashionable on the red carpet.
My favorite red carpet looks of the night were worn by Kate Winslet, Carey Mulligan, and Anna Kendrick.
Kate Winslet won for best actress last year, but this year she attended the awards as a presenter. She didn’t let that stop her from looking jaw-droppingly sexy in a black Stella McCartney dress with lace cut-outs. Kate always looks classic and dresses for comfort as well as following her own individual style.
Carey Mulligan is proving to be a fresh, new talent that always looks unique on the red carpet. Her long, floral printed dress by Vionnet proved no different. She took a risk and she owned it. She was also awarded Best Actress for her role in An Education.
Anna Kendrick has worn some gorgeous gowns on the red carpet, but she always gives off the impression that the dresses are wearing her. I liked how she kept it simple and flirty in a short, canary yellow Pucci dress. She evoked pure glamour as well as keeping her look age appropriate.
