Between tending to my sons oncoming cold and my own achy body, I did not get a chance to watch our actresses turned designer fashion models take their annual strut down the red carpet for this years Golden Globe Awards. I did however, manage to stumble on a few captured images of our fem fatale the next day as they posed decked to impress in some of the finest threads and designer originals this side of the universe. As a designer of one-of-a-kind womens garments myself, it is seldom that I am impressed by what I see on the runways or mannequins, but every now and again I am stopped in my tracks. Especially when the right garment reaches the right individual, it is there I find my YES! moment.
Now, I have to admit, whoever styles Halle Berry, she definitely deserves an award. Even though the girl has a got a body designers from far and wide would jump to adorn, classy chic is the name of her game time and time again. In fact, I don\’t think I have ever seen her looking anything less than superb. Whether she is dressing up for a ceremony such as this, or laying back with her family in more humble attire, Halle is a hit.
Here she rocks a stunning onyx silk bias cut gown with lace inserts by Kaufman Franco alongside her short signature coiffure. Reminiscent of the ultra feminine and modern East Indian attire in its cut and design, Halle looks not only picturesque but comfortable in her own womanly skin.
Christina Aguilera is one of those petite ladies whose 5ft 2 1/2″ frame has seen more metamorphosis over the span of her career than many women will see over the span of their lifetime. Constantly reinventing herself seems to be her m.o., and like her predecessor Madonna, she beckons fashion columnists to pull out their pens and write away.
Fitting perfectly in her Versace strapless peach colored chiffon gown with a metallic bodice and peach colored leather inserts, Christina looks part futuristic diva, part modern day woman in her designer gown.
Finally, we voted in Latin sensation Penelope Cruz in our Top 3 Golden Globe Designer Gown pics not only because she decided to strut such a combined array of elegant fabrics in selection of a gown, but because no matter how many times she wear black dresses to ceremonies such as these, she always does it with such style and taste.
Reminiscent of Audrey Hepburn with her petite frame yet larger than life charm and appeal, Penelope wore a Giorgio Armani Privé black lace gown that features a dramatic neckline beaded in a floral pattern, horizontal ribbon striping and fitted sleeves. And though it got mixed reviews from style columnists, we gave it a thumbs up for style and creativity.

Madonna is one of the most amazing singers in history. I really hope she keeps on going.
