As summer approaches, we take a look at the hits, misses and those stand out looks from the season’s most recent Red Carpet events.

 

China: Through the Looking Glass: MET GALA

THE HITS

Hailee Steinfeld in Michael Kors

 

Miranda Kerr in Louis Vuitton

 

Rose Byrne in Calvin Klein

 

Zendaya in Fausto Puglisi

 

THE MISSES

Kim Kardashian West looked almost ethreal in Robert Cavalli. It’s just too bad this look was done by Beyonce three years ago.

 

Kris Jenner was just too much of everything in Balmain.

 

STAND OUT

Rihanna in Guo Pei Couture

Whether you love it or hate it, Rihanna clearly embraced this year’s theme and we will remember this look for years to come.

 

BILLBOARD MUSIC AWARDS

THE HITS

Celine Dion in Mugler

 

Chrissy Teigen in Balmain

 

Charli XCX in Vintage

 

THE MISSES

With just a little bit too much thigh, Rita Ora in Fausto Puglisi was so close, yet so far from being a hit.

 

Iggy Azalea in a tragically dated two piece.

 

Jennifer Lopez in Charbel Zoe was predictable – next.

 

STANDOUT:

Zendaya slays again in Fausto Puglisi

This daring leopard and zebra animal print coupled with baby-blue turquoise accessories would be a hot mess on most women but Zendaya manages to pull it off as chic and fashion forward.

 

 

CANNES FILM Festival

 

THE HITS

Nikki Reed in Azzaro Couture

 

Aishwarya Rai in Ralph & Russo Couture

 

Cate Blanchett in Giles

 

Araya A. Hargate in Giambattista Valli Couture

 

THE MISSES

Rachel Weiss in Prada at the Youth Cannes Festival and youthful it was not.

 

Jane Fonda in just too much material.

 

STAND OUT

Emily Blunt stunned us in this glamourous figure hugging Stella McCartney gown.
