Crazy handsome. He is the definition and epitome of handsome. The scruff really goes with the look—it adds a little more swagger. The tux has to be Tom Ford because of the peak lapel. This looks like it was sewn on him; it is perfectly fitted to his body. This is the type of tuxedo that ends up of the floor beside the bed at the end of the night. It's the type of tuxedo you see on somebody and want to take off somebody. But that's what Tom Ford does best.
Who will wear what to the Golden Globes Sunday? In preparation for the big night, Brad Goreski, stylist and former star of "The Rachel Zoe Project," picks his favorite looks from awards shows past, from George Clooney to Kate Hudson.
Modern, simple, elegant, chic. Gwyneth has always been on the cutting edge of fashion and she's known for pushing boundaries. She's had her Alexander McQueen moment and her Zac Posen moment, but I love the simple shape of this Calvin Klein dress. These are the types of shapes we're starting to see come back on the runways. Hopefully, we're going to see a little bit more of this kind of direction happening on the red carpet. Everybody loves a big ball gown, but this kind of simplicity is so elegant and sometimes, it says a lot more than huge gown. Sometimes, everything tends to look like prom, instead of people wearing clothes that they are wearing and that aren't wearing them. But Gwyneth looks so sexy—and Brad Pitt couldn't look happier to be with her. Today, if she wore this on the red carpet, she would be best dressed all over again. There's also an element of surprise to it because it feels like the dress could fall off at any moment!
This is elegant, glamour, sophistication, and still young. Kate is known for that California, bohemian, very earthy kind of style. The gown itself actually leaves me breathless. The lace, the train, the neckline; she looks like a princess. I love the color palette with her skin and there's really no pop of color. There are no red nails, no lips. She just looks golden. Kate looks so beautiful here—it actually takes my breath away.
My fave. I love this gown for so many reasons. I remember when she stepped onto the red carpet and we saw the front of it—she was so covered up. But then, she turned around and it revealed so much of her body. And when I'm styling, that's what I call the 'peek-a-boo"—it's the surprise. You always want to give the photographers and the masses a little something to talk about. From the front, the dress fit her beautifully and looked gorgeous on her; but then, in the back, it was so sexy and sensual. I think this dress was very, very directional. It still holds up today as something that's super chic and beautiful.

Michelle was so young here when she was nominated for "Brokeback Mountain." I love how deep the V is, the pleated ruffle detail around the neckline, the twist around the front, the color, and the belt. It's just old Hollywood glamour at its finest—and that's a term I don't love using because it gets tossed around too much. But this is done in a really young and cool way. I love that her stylist played with the notion of doing an 'old Hollywood glamour" red-carpet moment, but kept it completely fresh, young, and cool. She looks like a young movie star.
Drama! I feel like I almost cried when I saw Penelope in this dress. Atelier Versace delivers a gown like no other can. Everybody gasped when she came down the red carpet. She's one of the people that can bring drama year after year and we expect it from her. This is just a work of art—it's couture at its finest. This is something, as a stylist, that you get excited about showing people. You know that it's going to be something that people talk about. When you're getting all the gowns into the studio for the fitting and you see a gown like this, you know you have something really, really special.
He is so incredibly handsome. I picked this one specifically, first of all, because I love the satin shawl collar and the little bow tie. But it's more about his personal grooming. I love the way he did his hair for this red carpet. He played into the whole Carey Grant-thing. He looks like the ultimate gentleman. I think his grooming is flawless. And his then-girlfriend Sarah Lawson looks real happy to be with him. She's got, "Oh my god, I'm with George Clooney," written all over her face.
I would wear this outfit—that's why I picked it. Usher just has a lot of fun with clothes. You can tell he loves to get dressed up, but he also loves a T-shirt and beat-up leather jacket. There are so many things about this outfit that I like—I love the polka dot tie with a check shirt, I love the piping on the trim of the suit, I love the khaki, and I love the sunglasses. There are tons of moving parts, yet they all move in sync with each other.
Carey is, in my opinion, somebody who always gets it right. This is, for me, a new way of dressing for the red carpet. It's got some sort of hardness and rock and roll to it. All the pieces that were embroidered onto the bodice were keys and watch parts, so it has a sort of a sense of humor to it, too. I feel like Carey Mulligan always brings something a little unexpected and this was the perfect thing to bring to the Oscars. The long earring is a really nice touch. I personally would have done a dirtier diamond instead of a bright diamond, but it brightens her up in the face. It takes a very brave person to wear a dress like this on the red carpet and it takes the right person for this dress to land on. When you're styling somebody and going through all of the dresses and you see this dress end up on Carey Mulligan, you have that gut feeling when you know, "This is it." And they must have had that moment.
I am a huge fan of Lanvin—everything down to the sneakers is Lanvin. I love that Robert Downey Jr. knows what he's wearing. You can see on his face that he knows he's not wearing something conventional to the Oscars; but it all just works for me. I love the baby blue bow tie and the navy blue suit. I love that he will take these risks. He even puts blue lenses in his glasses. I don't know if that's what the outfit needed, but it works so well. I just call this outfit, 'Pure RDJ.' If you're going to do your style, you might as well do it with Lanvin at the Oscars.
