The Golden Globes...

Kyle Crawford, fashion police.

A tiny bit of a ho hum, fashion wise, everyone plays it so safe these days.
To me there was a clear best of red carpet:

Kyra Sedgwick, always top 10, last night hit it out of the park, This is how you wear red. The styling kept clean, AGE APPROPRIATE! What is up, not so much with the older women, but the young fresh "girls" dressing way to old ... come on 22 yo's you are only there once, well, Hollywood, 5 or 6 times, but still. I just love this entire look, so many stylist and women do not wear strapless high enough, I do not know who's dress this is, but it is lovely. It has a very vintage Dior feel to it, very movie star.
Some runners up:
I do not know who this is, Megan Fox- but I dont know any of the tv kids today-, but she or her people understand the red carpet. At her age its more about fit than trend or style. She looks sexy,young, fresh. Very nice.
Probably going to be all alone on this pick for best, but I loved it. Renee Zellweger. Number one, its couture Carloina Herrera ( all she wears) AND its fashion forward. The styling is way off, but , the dress is fantastic. Ms Zellweger is not a tall woman, but looks it in this dress. Others will put it towards the bottom I'm sure , for some overly frilly , overly trained ill fitting poof, but this is high fashion. The fit, the style, the boldness.
Drew, Drew, Drew... this is how you dress when you KNOW you are a powerful woman in Hollywood. You could tell she LOVED this, its young, it's a tiny tiny big costumey - a little Marilyn, BUT,that is a good thing. Others will hate the styling, " what is up with her hair". It's a beautiful dress and her styling just gives it that over the top quality that John Galliano is known for, its clever.. it's Drew.
I loved this dress. Viola Davis, It may have been her first red carpet. She knows her body, I wish I could find a better picture. The color was just perfect with her skin tone. The styling is clean , not stark. Again, the fit is perfect. It did not look like anything else on the carpet
Now, the best accessory to have at any award show is the prize and Kate Winslet won TWO. This is how you wear black. Sculptural, PERFECT fit, love the bauble at the belt. This is how you dress for an award show, when you are pretty sure you are going home with a trophy or two. Hair, make up, everything, this would be my #2 pic of the whole night.

If we have to pic a non winner, and I really don't like too, but COME ON Heidi, you have like the best body on the planet... AND you are good pals with Tim Gunn.. this was a miss!
