Red Carpet Dress

What the hell was Evan Rachel Wood thinking? This dress is a nightmare - half disco ball, half warrior-princess.

Swank subtly lets her long, lean frame be the star of the red-carpet show, choosing sleek, monochrome dresses and gowns with an absolute minimum of awards-show borrowed bling.

Her mega-watt smile regularly out-dazzles any borrowed red-carpet baubles, but that doesn't mean Hollywood's favorite hippie chick, You, Me and Dupree star Kate Hudson, doesn't have a keen eye for style.

Few actresses have aged as gracefully—and as glamorously—as Diane Lane. From the sultry yet sophisticated eggplant-hue keyhole gown she wore at the Venice Film Festival to her countless red-carpet triumphs over the years, Lane consistently shows up overly styled starlets decades her junior with her unfussy brand of delicate femininity.

We know more than a few hipster lads who have nursed their crush on Christina Ricci through their late teens into their early 30s. Judging from our photo gallery of Ricci's greatest fashion hits, it's easy to see why the tiny actress with the big eyes keeps indie hearts aflutter.

Demi Moore appreared at the premiere of Spread wearing this black Roland Mouret one-shoulder dress. At 47, Mrs. Moore looked wonderful, and unlike some other celebs approaching the half-century milestone, her style is perfectly tailored to her age. Bravo.

Claire Danes looked stunning in a white Zac Posen dress at the red carpet premiere of Adam.
