Award Show Fashion: 31st Hong Kong Film Awards

The Hong Kong Film Awards were last night and if you're a fan of Hong Kong cinema, you would've loved the line up of nominees and attendees. If you love beautiful evening gowns, there were plenty of those as well. Check 'em out!

Angelababy looked absolutely stunning and goddess-like in this blue sequined gown by Elie Saab, when has this girl ever looked bad on the red carpet?

 Coco Lee in a Marchesa dress and Piaget jewels.  I like how she doesn't loose her hour glass shape is such a big dress. Can a girl ever have too much chiffon ruffle? The answer to that my dears is No, especially if it's by Marchesa.

I loved the look of Gao Yuan Yuan's Alexander McQueen dress with the lace applique that goes up to the high neck collar and the color looked great on her.

 Amy Kwok plays peek-a-boo on the red carpet with her belly button, what an odd place to put a hole..well I can think of odder places but let's not get into that lol 

Carina Lau arrived confident as ever in a black deep-v gown and dripping in sponsored diamonds

HK based model Ankie Beilke was the only one who opted for an animal print and only someone as leggy as her could pull off a printed maxi dress like this 

 Cissy Wang went for this season's hottest color, pastel seafoam green

Taiwanese actress Guey Lun Mei electrified the red carpet in an electric blue Bottega Veneta  gown

Icy Wong's strapless cream dress accentuated her bony shoulders but did nothing much for the rest of her

 Yang Mi looked ultra glam in this sparkling body hugging white gown on the arm of actor Shawn Yue 

Singer turned actress Shiga Lin showed up in a simple white halter dress, similar to the one Janice Man wore to last year's award show

 Kara Hui added a little flair to her all black lace embroidered dress with a pair of fun animal printed Loubs and obnoxiously blinding diamond earrings.

 Loletta Lee looks like she's about to hit the club not an award show but hey not every celeb gets sponsored with a thousand dollar designer gown.

 Qin Hai Lu wore a floral printed chiffon dress by Tadashi Shoji, while I like the soft pleating on this dress, I felt the print was a bit dull and matronly.

Sammie Yu cobalt dress was simple and flowy with just the right amount of slit to leg ratio - trust me that makes a difference in how a dress looks on a woman

 Sandra Ng glittering chartreuse dress matched her bright and hilarious personality and looked a-1 perfect on her slim figure.

 Shu Qi won the best dressed in the Asian media's eyes attending the awards in this sequined chartreuse Armani Prive gown topped off with a glam Old Hollywood hairstyle. While her dress was the most eye catching of them all, I didn't understand her choice in shoes (they we're fuchsia platform heels) Color blocking fuchsia and chartreuse? No thanks.

Shuang Zheng lacked a bit of effort in dressing up for the red carpet event, simple hair dress and casual peep toe ankle booties completed her yawn-perfect look.

 Wu Qian also couldn't resist wearing a sequined dress and opted for this floor sweeping white gown

Michelle Chen remained youthful looking in a strapless floral Valentino

Deanne Ip gets to walk the red carpet with Andy Lau (HK's George Clooney) and she goes in that? It looks like she's wearing a sequined bathing suit under a sheer black cover; not a good look at all 

Kenneth Tsang's wife was rocking the dress over pants trend, too bad it's the wrong pants and wrong dress...

Sound off below! which lady wins Best Dressed in your mind? 

Award Show Fashion: 48th Golden Horse Awards

Over the weekend, Taiwan held the 48th Golden Horse Awards, their version of the Oscars. And the ladies dressed just as fashionable as their Hollywood counterparts. I must say these ladies are a bit more modest about showing their cleave than some of the HK celebs...

Tang Wei looked more like princess than that Kate girl in this light pink Valentino from the Resort 2012 collection.  Wei has never disappointed me before in her red carpet outfits, let's hope she continues to 'wow' us!

Ella Chen looked ultra femme in a pleated charcoal Andrew Gn dress from F/W 2011. I am always shocked when she wears dresses because I'm so used to seeing her as a tomboy.

Vivian Hsu is always one to beat on the red carpet, she showed up in a sequined Salvatore Ferragamo featuring a v-neck and a high slit. She always gets the best dresses and sponsored the nicest bling!

Carina Lau wore a form fitting gradient Atelier Versace gown from S/S 2011, working it like a true diva

Angelica Lee was a vixen in this body hugging strapless red satin dress

 Aoi Miyazaki beaded dress seemed a bit overwhelming for her thin frame

Hao Lei picked a Fan Qi Hui original design, she just needed some neck bling to make a simple look stand out more, otherwise it's a great teal color.

Jiang Wenli wore a Naeem Khan floral embroidered black dress that was both age appropriate and chic

Kara Hui chose a stand out chartreuse dress with tiered chiffon ruffles

Bowie Tseng also opted for a strapless chartreuse colored gown but with a jewel encrusted sweetheart neckline, I must say it looks a bit ill fitting in the bust area

Pink Yang wore a dress by Shiatzy Chen, I like the peep of ivory colored ruffles under the sheer black fabric

Qin Hailu tulle dress was not a favorite of mine, the puff sleeve looked to '80's prom for me 

Michelle Chen opted for a blush dress with rosettes and petals strewn about, it was both youthful and sweet

Tanaka Chie kept it simple and classy in a maroon Xia Zi Li original

Shu Qi in Giorgio Armani; looks like she's a clown on stilts with these large flared bell bottoms, instead of elongating her legs it just swallowed them up. I did however like the blazer which was actually backless

Rene Liu wore a white Lanvin that was just tragic...it was frumpy, shapeless and made her look like a paper towel roll



Award Show Fashion: 14th Annual HuaBiao Film Awards

I hope the 'wrath' of Hurricane Irene didn't ruin everyone's weekend on the east coast! Thankfully I had electricity throughout otherwise I would've been super bored and wouldn't have known that there was an award show in China for the best in film! I was surprised to see how much black lace dresses there were on this red carpet, Lace is a definite must have this season! Will you be wearing it?

Yuan Li in a revealing lace dress. I know what you're thinking, "What was she thinking?!" I see Paris, I see France, I see Yuan Li's underpants! Well at least she wasn't wearing granny panties like Taylor Swift, now that would've been embarrasing! Even though I am a bit more slender than Li, I don't have the self confidence to ever wear something like this without a slip!
Zhang Ziyi in a much more modest yet still sexy gown by Tom FordZhang Jing Chu also opted for a long sleeved lace dress by Christian Dior, though I wish she had paired it with a clutch rather than a mini purse, it made it look too casual.

Cheng Ting Jia is wearing what I consider to be the perfect amount of lace on any outfit, Loved this look!

Angelababy looked youthful and chic in a lace bow adorned Valentino dress paired with a fun feathery gray clutch

Chow Yun Fat's wife also couldn't resist the urge to have a bit of lace on the bell of her sleeves, but seriously whoever dresses this woman needs to be fired. I don't think I've ever liked anything she's worn, everything is frumpy and shapeless!

Zhou Dong Yu looked age appropriate in this short black and white leaf appliqued dress

Eva Huang isn't afraid of mixing prints in this long sleeved dress

Zhou Xun is almost always in Chanel at every red carpet and it suits her perfectly

HK girl group Twins' Gillian and Charlene both opted for black dresses but Charlene wins my vote for best dressed twin in her long sheer (with a slip) dress with a sweetheart neckline.

Tang Wei (L) in Roberto Cavalli and Kara Hui both went with patterned v-neck dresses

Gong Li looked graceful and tan (even when she fell on stage lols) in this strapless black Alex Wang evening gown

Xu Fan opted for a traditional qi pao

Sammi (not afraid to admit she has a chest flatter than an airport tarmac) Cheng, shows that she's still got it at the age of 39 by wearing this forest green assymetrical cutout dress. Va-va-va-voom!

Jiang Wen Li also couldn't resist picking out a black v-neck dress for the event in Beijing

Sandra Ng, the big winner of the night, failed to impress in a plain black scoop neck dress. Yawn.

Joey Yung (L) has never been afraid to experiment with fashion but I don't really get this outfit... is she supposed to be a lamp shade? and Yumiko Cheng (R) went for a simple metallic gunmetal jumper, but homegirl forgot to accessorize!

Annie Yi chose to attend in this Christian Dior lace appliqued pastel gown that failed to really dazzle

Yang Mi went with a neutral gown that was perfect for her shape

Yan Ni went in last season's favorite nude colored dress

Michelle Yeoh (far right) who knew she was still around?! looked gorgeous in this princess pink gown with floral beading [with John Woo and his wife]

Crystal Liu looked beautiful in this soft pink tiered ruffle gown
Material Queen's Lynn Xiong glowed in her ruffled salmon gown

(Drama Fashion: Material Queen coming soon!!)
Kitty Zhang, you can;t see in this photo but this red hot dress has a long slit up to there

Liu Xiao Qing is not impressing anyone in this gold tone dress with a cape, the necklace is also too big for this dress, a dainty one goes a long way
