Kate Winslet in Jenny Packham - 'Labor Day' at 2013 TIFF

A glowing Kate Winslet was in Toronto on Saturday evening for the premiere of her movie 'Labor Day'.

The irony in the name aside, she looked absolutely splendid in a midnight blue Jenny Packham gown, no doubt custom-made for the mother to-be.

A low bun, pink lips, diamonds and a clutch finished out her look.

Kate Winslet In St John - CFDA Celebrates 50 Years

Kate Winslet arrived at the Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC to celebrate the opening night of the 'Impact: 50 Years of CFDA' exhibition.  The actress wore a  

St John dress for the night, a label she's currently the face of.

The full-sleeved LBD was signature Kate, with its body-hugging fit and simplicity.  She wore her in a curly updo and completed the look with some edgy earrings, bracelet and a box clutch.  Those peep-toes however are definitely not a sight for sore eyes.

2012 Golden Globes - Black

Rooney Mara wore black, as was expected.  The Best Actress (Drama) nominee wore a Nina Ricci Pre-Fall 2012 gown.  The plunge-neck tulle bodice & long column skirt were simple yet perfect for the scale of the event.  Rooney chose to sweep back her bangs and wore very less make-up.

Jennifer Morrison In Stella McCartney - 'Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol' NYC Premiere

Jennifer Morrison wore a Stella McCartney sheath to the NYC premiere of 'MI:4'.

The black & navy dress is underwhelming and I wasn't too crazy about her choice of accessories.

The ornate, amber earrings look out of place as this dress has minimalistic aura;  the clutch & plain black YSL pumps also felt dated.

No one wears Stella McCartney sheaths quite like Kate Winslet (click here & here).

Kate Winslet In Stella McCartney - 'Carnage' Premiere

Kate Winslet wore another Stella McCartney Fall 2011 dress, at the Paris premiere of her upcoming movie, 'Carnage'.

The figure-hugging red sheath with black sides is a variation of the original grey dress from the runway which she also wore at the Venice Film Festival earlier this year.

A strong updo, diamond earrings, a diamond bracelet & ankle-strap platform heels completed her look.

Ralph Lauren Lady

Kate lookes super sleek and chic in this body-hugging Ralph Lauren dress.

The Tiffany & Co. stone brooch is a nice touch, and adds colour, along with the red lip.

Designer Sightings

Spotted: Celebrities wearing collection pieces by Rachel Zoe & Victoria Beckham. Hollywood stylist Rachel Zoe has recently launched her own collection, which Instyle celebrated with a special dinner.

Cat Deeley looked wonderful, wearing a tuxedo-inspired white dress from the collection, adding neutral/tan accents via the shoes and clutch. White is really working for her these days, what with the glowing tan.

Rachel herself, looked glamorous in a layered, gold gown.


Kate Winslet and Olivia Palermo both went with Victoria Beckham at their respective events. Kate looked sleek and stylish, in the figure-hugging black dress with an embellished waist.

Olivia wore a vivid, mango coloured dress, which Victoria Beckham herself wore last year. Olivia made the look her own though, with the equally bright petal clutch and animal-print heels

Fashion Roundup

It has been a slow week, not many great outfits. Here's a summary of some of the looks that worked and others that didn't quite do it.

Jennifer Lopez, at the final of the American Idol wore a sparkly, nude Michael Kors jumpsuit with heels from the label. As far as most of her previous attempts at jumpsuits go, this was an improvement. However, it's still unsightly below the waist and makes her leg look stumpy.

Halle Berry showed off her tummy in an asymmetrical jersey Halston dress. We know, Halle, you have an amazing body but the giant cutout takes it a little too far.


Katie Holmes wore her own label, Holmes & Yang at an event. The fuschia shade is gorgeous and I like the pussy bow blouse but the maxi skirt is ill fitting, instead of separates, this piece would have looked better as a dress.

Kate Winslet looked mighty elegant in NYC, in a monochromatic Narciso Rodriguez gown. She balanced the geometric pattern of the dress with a soft hair do, drop earrings and red lipstick.

At the Kung Fu Panda 2 LA premiere, Angelina wore a black Michael Kors dress. It's trademark Angelina in that it's a safe silhouette and black, I'm glad she wore her hair up though, it lends a youthful touch to the look.

Lucy Liu was also present at the premiere, she chose a flirty white Marchesa dress, with nude peeptoes.

Jessica Biel, at a Revlon event, wore a teal coloured suit. It's not so much the colour that I hate, nor the overall suit - there's just too much teal though, she should have broken it up somewhere, maybe a different coloured shirt, or jacket?

Carrie Underwood, also at the American Idol red carpet, wore a lovely, beaded Lorena Sarbu tunic with embellished nude heels. The tunic is beautiful, and those heels make her legs look miles long!

Kate's Premiere

Spotted: Evan Rachel Wood & Kate Winslet at the NYC premiere of their new 5-part mini series for HBO called "Mildred Pierce". Keeping in theme of the series, both opted for dark colours.

Evan Rachel Wood looked beautiful in a plum Elie Saab dress with full sleeves - I like both the colour and the cut but she should have worn plain black peeptoes with this dress rather than the strappy ones; the straps on heels make her look stumpy instead of tall.

Kate Winslet chose Stella McCartney's fitted LBD with a sheer, polka dot sleeve. It works well on her but I wish she'd let her hair down instead of this stiff-looking do.

Of Full Skirted Frocks

Full skirted, 60's style dresses work a treat on most women. They're modest, yet very pretty however, look best when worn with high heels as usually the length of the dresses is kind of long.

Monday saw three actresses wear these dresses - "Bones" actress Emily Deschanel wore a one-shoulder number with Mary-Jane heels. This dress would have looked tons better had it been well-fitted (it's a little messy around her waist).

"Sex and the City"'s Kristin Davis wore this gorgeous fuschia Oscar de la Renta frock at the Humane Society's Genesis Awards and looked simply wonderful! Her alter-ego, Charlotte would definitely approve.

Kate Winslet wore something a little out-of-character, by opting for a black & white rosette-adorned Max Chaoul frock - I think she looks lovely but I prefer Kate in simple, classic silhouettes.
