And so the list is out! Honestly I was secretly wishing for Marc Jacobs to win the Womenswear Designer of The Year award. But Proenza Schouler was very close behind Marc Jacobs in my list. And I guess it's good that Marc Jacobs has kindly give the seat to other designer after ruling it for two years. Ah! Also, congratulations to Alexander Wang! I think he totally deserve the awards! Awesome! No one's better at womens accessories better than me I believe.

Below are my Best & Worst Dressed off the red carpet.

Best Dressed

Lady Gaga is on the top of this list of course! Adore the dress which was custom-made by Mugler! Though I'm not quite sure of the hair... Surely there're other hair colours more fitted for the dress...
Best Dressed for Men: Gerald Butler!!! Oh my gosh, I totally did not recognise him with his hair all groomed. Dashing!

Lastly, Katie Cassidy in Behnaz Sarafpour. The dress looked really well on here. Loving the fabric and the geomatric shape of the dress.

Worst Dressed

Two worst dressed- Kelly Benismon & Chloe Sevigny respectively.

Honestly, is Miss Benismon going to a nightclub or attending a prestigious award ceremony? She should just save this outfit for some wild girls night-out really. As for Chloe Sevigny, she's wearing one of her designs BTW.. She looked as if she's going for some stylish maid convention. And those awful shoes and showy nipples are totally ain't helping!
