School of Frock: Zendaya slays the art of layering
Whenever Zendaya is on the red carpet, everyone else can just pack up and go home
ZENDAYA (B+)
Elle Women In Hollywood in Los Angeles
Top, jacket, skirt and pants: Peter Do
Shoes: Christian Louboutin
More proof that this woman can sell any look - even if she forgot to remove her pyjamas before getting dressed. There is so much layering going on in this avant-garde grey-toned get-up, yet it does not overwhelm her. I am just grateful Zendaya is never boring and continues to take risks, even in alternative suiting.
JOEY KING (C+)
Elle Women In Hollywood in Los Angeles
Dress: Richard Quinn
Shoes: Christian Louboutin
Full-length bodysuits under party frocks is apparently a thing, but this is more Catwoman getting stuck in a flower patch. I appreciate her courage in going there and embracing the quirky, but the no-hands thing just freaks me out.
CHARLIZE THERON (C)
Elle Women In Hollywood in Los Angeles
Top, jacket, skirt, clutch and shoes: Louis Vuitton
Theron is butching it up these days and opting for bolder pieces, but I honestly cannot wait for her to move on to the next phase. The top half is biker girl chic, but from the waist down, it is try-hard territory. Ship this nonsense to Ruby Rose, Jennifer Connelly or Sophie Turner - Theron is too big a star to be going down this road.
LIZZY CAPLAN (D)
Premiere of Castle Rock Season 2 in Los Angeles
Gown: Area
It is a repurposed satin bed sheet. The colour of radioactive peach. Hanging on for dear life. Combine them all and I hope she made it through the event without the entire gown collapsing into a pooling heap at her feet.
CARA DELEVINGNE (F)
Girl Up #GirlHero Awards in Los Angeles
Jumpsuit: Guy Laroche
Shoes: Christian Louboutin
Swiss cheese - but make it fashion. I have as many yikes for this moth-eaten mechanic uniform as there are gaping holes. As I struggle to make sense of the incomprehensible, ripped denim suddenly does not seem so terrible.
