<![CDATA[amFAR Fashion Week Gala Is The Stuff Nightmares Are Made Of]]> Last night in New York, French Vogue editor-in-chief Carine Roitfeld was honored alongside Julian Schnabel and Bobby Shriver by amFAR for "their vital and distinctive contributions to the global struggle against AIDS." It being the eve of New York Fashion Week, we totally expected the attendees at the gala to make an effort with their outfits — plus, they were going to be in the presence of La Roitfeld herself! But let's just say that Natasha Richardson, above, was the only highlight of the evening, and that we're pretty sure we're going to be having nightmares about most of the dresses on display. (Jesus, even Christy Turlington dropped the ball!) The full good, bad, and ugly, after the jump.



The Good:
roitfeld020108.jpgAs usual, Carine Roitfeld looks perfect, although she could stand to lose the Kenneth Cole accessory.
amfarriyikuro.jpgSure she might've fallen during the pageant, but Miss Universe Riya Mori had one of the most stand-up looks of the evening.
amfarmollysims.jpgMolly Sims looks cool and effortlessly glam in her almost-sheer sheath.


The Bad:
amfarlaurenbush.jpgI'm sure that Lauren Bush is wearing Ralph Lauren, but this dress is just ill-fitting and not at all flattering.
amfarchristyturlington.jpgChristy Turlington let me down. This dress is just all wrong for her.


The Ugly:
amfarveronicawebb.jpgWho the hell is going to listen to Veronica Webb give fashion advice of Tim Gunn's Guide To Style after seeing her in this monstrosity?
amfarjenniferesposito.jpgJennifer Esposito's dress looks like, in the words of Michael Kors, "something the town whore's mom made."

<![CDATA[National Board Of Review: The Stars Came Out, The Fab Fashions Did Not]]> The National Board of Review of Motion Pictures held its annual awards show last night. Yup: An actual awards show not stopped by the writer's strike! And not only did legitimate celebrities actually show up, Diablo Cody won for Best Original Screenplay for Juno and Ellen Page won Best Breakout Performance by an Actress for the same! Yay, women! But boo, too, because the ladies on display played it a little too safe, sartorially. Are the stars just out of practice now that they can't go anywhere without fear of crossing a picket line? And while we think that Jennifer Garner knocks it out of the park in this short, draped number, the rest of the looks ranged from pretty and safe to yawn-were-you-saying-something? The good, the bad, and the ugly, all after the jump.

The Good:
nbrtildaswinton.jpg
Tilda Swinton looks totally nuts. I love it.
nbremilymortimer.jpg
Emily Mortimer is a total coquette. Le swoon.
nbrellenpage.jpg
Brava Ellen Page: The girl has already mastered red carpet chic.
nbrkatewinslet.jpg
Does Kate Winslet ever look bad? Even when wearing what is essentially a ribbon-belted garbage bag?


The Bad:
nbrnicolemiller.jpg
Nicole Miller is a fashion designer! Of pretty dresses! So why does she look so M.O.B.?
nbrclooneylarson.jpg
Sarah Larson is a pretty girl. She is dating a hot guy. She needs to step it up.
nbrjurneesmollett.jpg
Jurnee Smollett's look is definitely the most exciting one of the evening. But not necessarily in a good way.
nbrzetajonesdouglas.jpg
Yeah, yeah: Catherine Zeta Jones looks good. And Michael Douglas looks old.


The Ugly:
nbrjulianschnabel.jpg
Julian Schnabel gives the stink eye.

<![CDATA[The Critics Choice Awards: Where's Bjork When You Need Her?]]> The Critics Choice Awards were last night, and where there's an awards show, there's our take on who wore the good, the bad, & the ugly. Frankly, we think that anyone who would show and fail to support the striking writers is pretty ugly in our book. But of the dark-hearted folks who did show — well, it was all a little blah. Marion Cotillard, who played Edith Piaf in this year's La Vie En Rose gave Kyra Sedgewick (left) a run for her money for the evening's best dressed. But see for yourself: Cotillard, Amanda Bynes' wide stance, Marcia Gay Harden's ill-supported boobs, Brittany Snow's too shiny dress and more, all after the jump.



The Good:
criticschoicegood.gif
Marion Cotillard proves that French women do everything better, Emily Deschanel gives her sister a run for her money for title of "Prettiest Deschanel," and Hal Holbrook and Dixie Carter are just too cute for words and we love them.

The Bad:
criticschoicebad.gif
Sorry, we can't even comment on Amanda Bynes' lilac frock, we're too distracted by her wide stance; Queen Latifah sports one of the most desperate polyster looking pantsuits we've ever seen; and Marcia Gay Harden needs a better bra and less Botox.

The Ugly:
criticschoiceugly.gif
Brittany Snow shines in all the wrong ways, Anna Sophia Robb looks like she made a wrong turn on her way to a deubtante ball, and Julian Schnabel might be a brilliant filmmaker, but when it comes to his taste in clothes: Oy.
