Haute couture was out in full force this week as movie premieres and awards season nomination events made stars break out their glammest gowns. And while everyone looked fabulous, two lovely ladies stood out for their inventive and intuitive abilities to match their dresses to their bodies' natural (or, in some cases, not-so-natural) palettes. Who scored top honors for her all-over golden glow? And which pink lady should've added another hue into the mix? It's all right here.
Elizabeth Olsen might be a newcomer to the Hollywood scene, but she's got her red-carpet look down like a pro: romantic waves, soft makeup, a champagne-silky clutch and a Valentino dress whose neutral-and-gray pattern plays perfectly with her naturally golden hair and big blue eyes. With its classic long lines and subtle print, this gown doesn't push the envelope—and that's totally okay for an actress who's been the picture of quiet confidence ever since she became one of the most talked-about breakout performers of the year. We have a feeling this won't be Elizabeth's first Style Superstar win!
But while Elizabeth's outfit shows how sweet it is to select a dress in the same color family as your hair, skin and eyes, there's such a thing as too much matching—and Katy Perry may have gone just a teensy bit too far when she dressed up in this pinky-purple Dolce & Gabbana number for the Grammy Nominations Concert. This gown fits like a glove and would have been so, so gorgeous with her naturally dark brunette locks, but with the matching pink dye job, it just doesn't pack the same punch. Here's hoping she returns to her natural roots soon.
