SAG Awards: Best in Prints

Posted by Kate Alvarez as Anna Paquin, Awards & Accolades, Meryl Streep, Michelle Monaghan, Nicole Kidman, Sandra Bullock, The Red Carpet at 9:00 AM UTC on Jan, 25 2010

I’m getting quite tired of the predictable jewel tones and monochrome gowns that the stars usually wear to awards shows and red carpet events. For last Saturday’s SAG Awards, my picks for best dressed were the stars who donned prints and beads.

True Blood’s Anna Paquin strayed away from the dark side with her printed Alexander McQueen dress.

Award presenter Michelle Monaghan sparkled in a one-shoulder gun metal, beaded Calvin Klein gown.

Although I love Meryl Streep’s belted printed gown, I’d do without those sunglasses.

Nicole Kidman (third from left) took a break from her usual monochrome red carpet gowns and slipped into a sequined and embroidered Oscar de la Renta gown. Here, she is onstage with fellow actresses (L-R) Marion Cotillard, Kate Hudson, and Penelope Cruz.

Sandra Bullock not only won Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role for The Blind Side, but also got the fashion police’s nod in this black and blue-trimmed Alexander McQueen gown.
