This Year's Best Dresses - 2016

This has seen some great style and fashion on the red carpet and here we have the stars that raised the bar for red carpet glamour.... Here we have the best red carpet moments this year...

Bella Hadid:

Embellished in all-over metallic beading, the cutout gown was finished with a heavy dose of sparkle on a statement necklace and wrist full of bracelets and a pair of shimmering Stuart Weitzman heels. No doubt, Bella turned heads from her first step on that red carpet.

 

 

Blake Lively:

 

She rarely puts a fashion foot wrong and always makes an effort for the red carpet. But Blake Lively surpassed herself when she stepped out at the Cannes Film Festival So far she’s worn designs by Giambattista Valli, Versace, Chanel and Valentino and we’re only on day three! She channelled Cinderella at the Slack Bay premiere, rocking a frothy pastel blue gown by Vivienne Westwood. With its layers of organza flounces made from 30 meters of fabric, sequin floral embellished bodice and signature Westwood Bardot neckline, this gown is most certainly fit for a Princess!

 

 

 

Lea Michele:

 

The Elton John Oscars party always attracts a stellar crowd and this year Lea Michelle was front and centre for the glamorous bash. And she made sure she stood out from the crown in a statement gown by New York based designer Pamella Roland. This eye-catching dress is from Roland's AW16 collection so is hot off the runway from New York Fashion Week.

 

Brie Larson:

 

On Oscars Sunday, all eyes were on Brie Larson, the odds-on favorite to win Best Actress for her role in "Room." Ultimately, she did take home the Academy Award and praise from fashion critics for her blue Gucci gown.

 

 

Jenna Dewan Tatum:

 

This shimmery blue dress on Jenna Dewan Tatum reminds us of the night sky. Whether Jenna is rocking her sweats, skinny jeans or a fabulous couture dress on the red carpet, she's always looking radiant. And she went above and beyond at the Golden Globe Awards in a Zuhair Murad gown.

 

 

Kate Hudson:

 

 
 
 
The Mother's Day actress flaunted her incredible body in a sparkling peach Michael Kors choker, bra top and skirt. She finished with complementary Giuseppe Zanotti platforms and a Jimmy Choo clutch.

 

Jennifer Lawrence:

 

For the past couple of years, though, red carpet season hasn't really gotten underway until Jennifer Lawrence hit the step-and-repeat. As expected, she looks gorgeous. And as you could have guessed thanks to her long-standing partnership with the brand, the dress is Dior. If you're feeling déjà vu looking at this Globes dress, it's not (just) because it matches the red carpet (except, you know, better). It calls back to one of her very first red carpet looks!

 

 

 

Taylor Swift:

 

When Taylor Swift arrived at the Grammys, her bright orange crop top and sweeping, hot pink satin skirt, tricked out with an extremely high slit, felt eerily familiar. First off, Swift’s Atelier Versace ensemble harkened back to a particular outfit from the late ‘90s rom com canon.
