It’s the most wonderful time of the year – for fashion enthusiasts that is.
The 2019 awards season is well and truly upon us, and the red carpet is delivering all kinds of style gold – the latest event to capture our Gucci-lensed eyeballs? The Critics Choice Awards.
Held annually, this awards event hands out top gongs for achievements in film – hand selected by the Broadcast Film Critics Association.
And while there’s no denying the awards themselves are an epic achievement, we’re a little distracted by the dresses worn by said achievers.
Can you really blame us? Nicole Kidman’s knockout ensemble this year deserves immediate attention, while Emmy Rossum’s siren red dress is as enchanting as some of her silver screen performances.
