When I was preparing these posts I noticed a surprising trend – a shocking number of stars were wearing Monique Lhuillier. Now, Monique has a fair amount of red carpet success, but to get EIGHT people in her designs on one of the biggest red carpets of the year is quite the feat.
Keri Russell

She looked fabulous while losing, though, and I was surprised to find out that this is actually separates – a sequined bodysuit and matching skirt. Both of which you can buy for your own red carpet needs if you happen to have a spare $2,790 laying around.
Emmy Rossum

Isla Fisher

Jameela Jamil
Embed from Getty ImagesPSA: If you’re not watching “The Good Place”, you should be. It’s sweet and smart and funny and Jameela is hilarious as the uptight, upper-crust Tahani. If you do watch, then you will undoubtedly appreciate this prank E! News pulled. I really enjoy this gown – the color is beautiful and the the subtle stripes are really fun, but I do think it needs a good tug further up her bust. Strapless dresses are hard, y’all.
Heidi Klum
Embed from Getty ImagesThis is 100 times better than her usual brand of sheer/naked/big bird. I still wish such a fun skirt wasn’t paired with such an over-taxed and dour bodice.
Kaley Cuoco
Embed from Getty ImagesThis is easily one of the best things she’s ever worn. She has a tendency to go way over the top, wearing things her she just doesn’t have the fashion chops to pull off.. This is refreshingly simple and elegant.
Linda Cardellini
Embed from Getty ImagesFun! I like the tulle and the sparkles, but wish she didn’t look like she’d had a run-in with a slasher on her way to the show.
Amber Heard
Embed from Getty ImagesWow this is VERY 80’s. I never like a dropped waist and what is going on with her hair? It’s a mess – did she ride over with her head sticking out of the limo sunroof? For what it’s worth ($6,495, to be exact) you can snag this one as well, if you need something to wear to the prom in 1985.
