Many fashionable designer gowns and dresses were seen at The Savoy in London, England, on Monday, February 11, as celebrities stepped out for the 2013 Elle Style Awards.
While many dressed their best, with most going for modern red carpet looks, only seven stood out at the awards ceremony celebrating designers and the most stylish celebrities and models. Among these seven was 16-year-old Chloe Moretz, named Next Future Icon at the event.
1. Chloe Moretz in Stella McCartney
Wearing a Stella McCartney piece, the ‘Kick-Ass’ star proved she deserved the award. She looked both elegant and age-appropriate in her dress. This designer piece is playful, youthful, fun, and classic, featuring black and white stripes.
Chloe paired the dress with Christian Louboutin’s “Pivichic” heels to match it. By the way, Stella McCartney won the International Designer of the Year award. Chloe sure made a perfect choice.

2. Alicia Vikander in Louis Vuitton
Are you curious about what the Editor’s Choice Award winner Alicia Vikander wore to the Elle Style Awards? It’s a checkered long-sleeved mini dress from Louis Vuitton’s Spring 2013 collection, revealing more than just her legs.
This modern, geometrically designed dress has see-through parts, but not as see-through as it was presented on the runway. Alicia finished her look with yellow pumps by Christian Louboutin for a pop of color.
Love it? Did Elle’s editors pick the right winner?

3. Zawe Ashton in Julien Macdonald
At the 2013 BAFTA Awards, actress Zawe Ashton dressed in a striking black embroidered and sheer dress by Julien Macdonald. And just a day after, at the Elle Style Awards, Zawe stunned us again with her second Julien Macdonald outfit for this month.
The dress is beautiful and modern, thanks to its silhouette, the rows of mirror studs embellished throughout, and a plunging neckline with a sheer cover. Zawe made sure all eyes were on her. She completed her ensemble with a silver Jimmy Choo clutch and Christian Louboutin heels.

4. Andrea Riseborough in Matthew Williamson
I love Andrea’s dress from Matthew Williamson’s Pre-Fall 2013 collection. The textured embroidery in silver looks modern and elegant, and I don’t find it over the top. Aside from the lace design, the feathery hem also amps up the dress’ glamour vibe.
The V-neck, half sleeves, and above-the-knee length were also perfect on Andrea’s body. So, she did well in her choice of dress, but I think she failed to pair it with the right shoes. Perhaps silver sandals would be more appropriate than Christian Louboutin ‘Dufoura’ booties?

5. Daisy Lowe in Dolce & Gabbana
Fashion model Daisy Lowe looked ready to party or attend a prom night in her feminine Dolce & Gabbana “Sera” dress.
It has a sweetheart neckline, a beautiful floral print in green, and a full skirt that reminds me of retro fashion. Her classic black pumps and messy fishtail braid made her dress stand out.

6. Kate Hudson in Stella McCartney
As usual, Kate Hudson looked elegant and sophisticated. Of all the beauties who attended the fashionable fete, it was the 33-year-old actress who showed classic Hollywood glamour.
She stood out in her va-va-voom strapless dress by Stella McCartney, which features a sculpted bodice with an open back. Minimal accessories, a Stella clutch, and a neat updo finished her fabulous look.

7. Naomie Harris in Roksanda Ilincic
As if she knew Roksanda Ilinčić would be the winner of the Red Carpet Designer of the Year award, Bond girl Naomie Harris wore a Pre-Fall 2013 maxi dress by the Serbian fashion designer.
It’s a simple sleeveless dress, but the bright orange hue is enough to make it stand out. It also features color blocking via a pop of pink at the back. Naomie added a black belt to cinch her waist and accessorized with black-and-gold Nicholas Kirkwood heels and a Smythson clutch.
