I've never seen so many absolutely hideous fashion failures in one place! There were like 5 dresses that I really loved. The rest were mostly various levels of hideous, or failed in a critically important feature that ruined the look. That red number on Heidi was stunning, the pink ensemble on Jennifer Lopez was amazing, the black, flowered asymmetrical neck gown Rachel wore was lovely, & that gorgeous purple gown that Oprah (who I truly despise) wore stood out as favorites. There were a few others that were really pretty but so many missed on either tailoring or a small (but crucial) design flaw. Overall, I'm shocked at all the failures. These super stiff satins rarely work, & the mostly naked dresses have got to go! Thanks for another highly enjoyable video, breaking down the details of fashion, fit & style. You're always so kind with your criticism, yet put your finger on exactly what failed or flew. Luv ya Honey! 💗
I get why Oprah wore purple, quite smart actually, but it really is a color that looks amazing on her. The only thing I did not like about her dress is it didn’t seem comfortable. I’m betting when she got home and took it off it was a wonderful moment. She just looked like she couldn’t breathe. Loved both Jennifer Lopez and Lawrence’s dresses. And even Brie Larson’s.
Definitely seen enough naked dresses. They aren’t classy or elegant. If they weren’t on the red carpet, you’d expect to see them on a darkly lit street corner
The fashion houses seem to have lost the ability to make supportive,flattering bodices for dresses.All the money for ill fitting,unflattering tops that make boobs look floppy and widely spaced.Heidi Klum showed them how it’s done.
@@Debs1233 Especially on those ladies who need the most support,surely they can see that the breasts are very large ergo more material is required.Like trying to squish gg cups into a c cup bra!
Cathy, you are so right. One of the loveliest parts of the female body is the breasts. Failure to understand how to drape or support the bust line will often mar the rest of the design. The great couturiers understood this for over 150 years, but something seems to have been lost.
Ok I have to disagree with you on Emily Blunt’s dress. I normally love her styles, but this was a big fail for me. I am so tired of feeling like I am looking at lingerie and like I am in the bedroom with these actresses!! It was too short and revealing. It fit her well, and I liked the detail of the beading and the color of gold, but enough with the feeling of being barely dressed. I thought it was too raunchy for her. I guess I am old fashioned, because I really dislike these extremely revealing looks. It comes off as trashy and desperate. Those are two words that I would normally never associate with her. I mean, in an unexpected contrast, Jennifer Lopez looked tasteful. That pink dress was much more what I would normally see EB in. Please go back to that! I am alone in this?
Designers are overly focused on pushing "agenda" rather than creating something of beauty which serves as a backdrop to that of the wearer. Case in point: Princess Catherine's attire never outshines "her." Says much about the Hollow-wood self-perception.
The gradation of Portman's dress was beautiful. I thought the top though was too simple...those narrow straps suddenly made it look like a spring dress instead of an evening gown.
Great review! I appreciate you going into details as to why a dress works, what might have improved it or why it should have stayed on the designer’s sketch pad!😂 So much better than hearing “I love it/I hate it”. ❤
Some very beautiful fabrics, but most of the dresses did not flatter the bust lines. I agree that a lot of them looked like they were falling down. And I don't like the "smashed" boob look.
I agree with your comment on the “Smashed boob look ! “ Makes them look the exact opposite of “perky! “ I don’t know why women choose this look & I sure as hell think the designers must hate women’s bodies ! 👀
In my opinion Florence Pugh’s stylist hates her. There’s no reason for all her looks to not be cohesive. There’s always one element of her look that just makes me scratch my head and ask why would they pair that with that 😂 Natalie Portman was my favorite by far. That Dior dress was stunning.
I love embroidery. I’ve been embroidering since my great grandmother taught me at age 5. 62 years! I’m sure Oprah wore The Color Purple for a reason. 😂
Me too. But the hat looked like an overeager space helmet. They could have done just a regular hat with a veil and had a couple of those flowery things on her arms placed on the veil, strategically. I generally don't like see-through long sleeves but this was done perfectly with those flowery things.@@ThepupsnameisBrian
For me, Emily Stone's dress, so missed the mark with the low cut neck and a slit that was way too high. All I kept doing was bouncing between the two. I think if the slit down the middle was not there at all, it would have given it a far more Hollywood sophistication. I fabric was stunning.
Yes. Went I judge these gowns, I think if I would be comfortable wearing them. Stone's gown would make me very uneasy. A wrong move and I'd expose body parts that I'd rather not.
You are my favorite fashion commentator! You have a knack of breaking down the pros and cons of each outfit and your videos hold my attention from start to finish. Thanks for all your hard work!!!
I can see people are going back to nice wearable flattering gowns. I am happy about that. I thought the last 7-8 years were ridiculous red carpets with trashy or clownish outfits.
When the video got to Steinfeld, I thought Audrey Hepburn! Two seconds later you said “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”. I love it when I agree with you almost immediately. Love the video!
LOVED Natalie Portman. It was so colourful, adored the beading, great for her body type but also recognises she's pretty Orthodox and never wears outrageous. I also liked Julianne Moore, saw nothing wrong with top half. Emily Blunt dress a bit strange for me. It was basically a teddy with sheer skirt over it to make it less rap singer outfit. But then again, what do I know?
I still think a soft bun instead of a ponytail would have looked better on Natalie Portman....the harsh pulled back hair could have been a bit softer IMO. 😊
I just want to say thank you for explaining what you liked, what you didn't and why, and how you'd fix it. By the end, I was like, "Oh, they should have shortened the straps on that one," because you'd made me see how that would improve the look. I appreciated that you didn't just say, "oh, that's an ugly dress." You explained that, "oh, that panel brings your eye up and highlights that part of the dress," so I understood why it wasn't a flattering look.
Great episode! My very favorites in order were 1) Natalie Portman 2) Carrie Mulligan 3) Hallie Seinfeld 4) Jennifer Lawrence. The dresses and styling were all perfect. I think the most important thing is for the dress to flatter and enhance, so that the person is wearing the dress and the dress is not wearing the person. Spectacularly achieved by all these ladies. Selena Gomez looked like the dress was wearing her. For some reason it reminded me of the Queen of Hearts in Alice in Wonderland. It made her look short and wide. Not good. I don't understand the excitement about Emma Stone's dress. Yes, the embroidery was impressive. But the shape of the dress was not good. The V neck was too low and the slit was too high.
That Selena dress was really awful, it looked like the designer ran out of material. I also thought Emma Stones dress didn't suit her at all- the low v neck made her look very flat chested.
I liked Selina Gomez' gown even though I agree it made her look short and busty. But she is short and busty and that's fine - the gown was wild and exuberant and she looked beautiful regardless. Normally I don't like costumey gowns but this one worked.
I totally agree on Emma stones dress; The V too deep, the slit too high; she's also very pale for that color in my opinion. I also wish the top of Selena's dress was a little different; the bottom half and the color were stunning on her.
I absolutely love your choice of words to describe fashion. Thoughtful, colorful and well chosen. I could say more. Your voice is pleasant to listen to as well. I’m glad to have found you.
Anything anyone says about JLo, she still has a great body and still looks fantastic and still looks good in whatever and picks the right outfits for the event shes at ❤❤❤❤
I love Dior, but didn’t like the funny sleeve on Jennifer Lawrence. Rosamund Pike’s look was gorgeous, but Natalie Portman’s gown was stunning. She always looks beautiful. I also loved Hunter Schafer’s look, like she stepped out of a Gainsborough painting. I think Emma Stone looked gorgeous, as she always does. I don’t like a deep V neckline with a high front slit, for some reason. The embroidery on that dress was amazing.
America always looks impeccable! Love your review, you are never overly critical of the person but always positive and gentle, no body shaming. You are a class act! Still wish I could go shopping with you! 😁
I agree with your perspective on the faulty clothing design. You seem to have a knowledge in the fashion industry. I, too, disliked the pointed dress front. Why would you even be drawn to a style with so much discomfort visually and figuratively. Thanks Beeps for a well thought out and entertaining broadcast.
Not a fan of Jennifer Lopez, but I must say that her gown was the epitome of "pretty" in every way, including her styling. Wow, a nod to real Hollywood.
The only change I would have suggested for her would be to have a LITTLE difference in the color between dress and "cape". The all-petal-pink-and-nothing-else put me in mind of a boudoir ensemble. I expected her to be wearing a pair of matching pink marabou heeled mules Maybe keep that color for the cape, but make the dress itself either somewhat (but noticeably) lighter, or with a touch of pale mauve in the pink.
Most of the designers failed the ladies in the bust areas, they need to learn women have boobs and design more like they did for the old time movie stars, thankyou
I LOVED Heidi's gorgeous red dress! Just beautiful! And hated the freestanding spikes that reached the ears of the poor lady who chose that unfortunate dress.
Emma’s slit was embarrassingly high. I will never understand why a few women feel the need to almost expose themselves. It says something about their lack of dignity and need to draw attention to themselves. That dress would have looked just as lovely with a lower slit.
Remember when the Meg wore that hideous red dress and Beebs remarked that it's not a good look to have a plunging neckline AND a high slit in the same.dress. Emma Stone wore this look and yet no remarks in that regard. I'm no fan of the Meg but seems a bit of a double standard to me.
Beebs, this is my favorite video so far. I loved the longer format. You have such a keen eye but a big heart. Kudos to you for proper critiques, instead of being unkind and reductive you were a class act!!❤❤❤
i love how you pointed out that it sometimes is NOT just the dress but tailoring, alteration, and ironing ......FIT ...cutting off loose ends itself can make all the difference.
Beebs, I love you and love your videos! They are so educational. I love how you give suggestions for what might have made something work better, rather than just saying "This didn't work." I found myself looking at the photos and starting to see the things you pointed out, even before you said them - that means I'm learning! As a DEFINITELY plus size girl, I appreciate how you include pics of ladies that don't conform to the "slender" standard. You never body shame, just speak of body types - not sizes - and the area each might want to avoid emphasizing (and how to do that). My top 5 would be: 1) Oprah Winfrey - stunning color and design; 2) JLo; 3) Heidi Klum; 4) J Law; 5) Emily Blunt. And to add a guy in there, Kevin Costner. Holy cow I almost fell out of my seat!!! Thank you for this excellent video. Please continue, because I love them and learn from them! 💞♥
Love your analysis! So spot on. I thought Emily Blunt’s dress looked better from the side view, straight-on it gave her a bit of tummy due to the diagonal lines and where they were placed. I think Heidi Klum had such a wow look, probably my favorite. JLo’s opera coat and the fit of her dress were another wow moment. I also liked Rachel Smith’s dress a lot.
I like Rosamund Pike's dress but she should have lost the headpiece. Natalie Portman's dress was perfection. Da'vine Joy Randolph's dress needed larger cups and straps. I was really surprised there wasn't a wardrobe malfunction.
Jlo’s dress & coat looked beautiful, especially the colour. I think a necklace or thick choker would have been nice too. There was a serious lack of jewelry at the GG’s , imo.
I think the lack of jewelry is in my opinion an attempt to be "less opulent" because of the current state of the world. Probably most of them don't actually care, but want to portray a good image, and we are all well acquainted by now to their need to virtue-signal every chance they get. But that's just a theory. Leaving that aside, I think more jewelry on JLo would have been too noisy because of the dramatic opera coat that was clearly the focal point, but I don't think it would have been necessarily bad either.
JLo, Brie Larson and the lady that wore the pink version of Audrey Hepburn's dress (sorry, I don't know her name) are the only ones I can say that looked flawless. There were other dresses and looks that I liked, however there was always an issue with tailoring or styling.
The amount of gowns that accidentally drew attention to the crotch area was inexplicable. Just no. The tailoring on Brie Larson's dress was exquisite: those darts, that hem 😍 but it was very prom and too young for her, whereas Jennifer Lawrence's gown was womanly perfection 🌟
I’m no Jennifer Lopez fan but her dress and hair were perfect. I didn’t like Emma Stone’s dress. It looked like the top needed to be pulled up more and then the slit at the bottom looked cheap. I also loved Heidi Klum’s dress. It was perfection.
Apparently Rosamund Pike had fallen (maybe skiing - I don't remember) and had pretty significant facial abrasions that had improved but not completely by Golden Globe night.
I have to disagree about Emily Blunt's dress, I thought it was too big, not tailored to her body properly. It wasn't fitted around her waist/stomach area and made her look pregnant or bloated.
Oh, so many things to say!! I'll to be brief; here goes! 1) Beebs, the eye look today is a KNOCK OUT -- we need a tutorial! Pleeeeeease! 2) Excellent review, Beebs! You nailed every single one! These people should have to line up in front of you before they are seen by the public. If Beebs says no, off it comes! 3) Jennifer Lawerence and Haley Steinfeld were my favorites because EVERYTHING was right: dress, hair, accessories, makeup, jewelry--that's what you should look like on the red carpet. 4) SO MANY tailoring fails!!! I could not believe how poorly some of these dresses were fitted to these women! I don't know if it was that the actresses had too few fittings or their seamstresses just sucked, but I actually felt bad for some of the designers. They put all that work into creating a gown for a vision and there are loose threads hanging from it? Or the straps are too long? Come on!!! It's not the tailor's name going out there--it's the designer's! These people should be more careful; they work around BIG scissors and designers are known to be a bit tempermental!😱
I love when you do these. I could have skipped the show and just waited for your best and worst!! Love how you go into detail and explain. And I agree with your results!! It wasn’t too long!❤
Oprah's dress was a beautiful shade of purple. The dress and fit overall were perfect. I also liked her hair style with the dress. I think that she got it just right.
You have become the first, & many times only, one that i come to for fashion critiques. You're very knowledgeable and have great ideas on what works better for different body types. Why are you not a stylist for one of these starlets?!
Sooooo funny…..that the best dress (by far) echoed Audrey Hepburn from 62 years ago! It was a beautiful dress that surpassed all the fads and attempted show stoppers of more than half a century.
Ooooh, Dior! I'm sure "someone" was green with envy!👿Jennifer Aniston had a gorgeous, figure hugging dress on and slightly shorter hair but she needed some jewelry and maybe some soft, colorful lips. I loved Natalie Portman's dress - looked perfect on her.
Great video, not too long. Could have been longer. Love your commentary, Jennifer Lopez pink roses was my favorite. Please do a video for other award shows
Thank you for the critique. I don't watch these shows but love seeing the fashion. I agree that tailoring is lacking in so many gowns. Such a shame. But my bet peeve is lack of hair styling. I guess celebrities can't find hairstylists who do creative and beautiful hair. Too bad. Beeb's your hair in this video was great and better than many of those celebrities. Well done!
Dua Lipa's dress looks like a Halloween outfit-the appliques are bones! Theres the ribs on either side of the bodice, the spine down the centre, and the 2 curved shapes look like the femurs, there's even a neck of femur where they hook a bit at the top. Its an anatomically correct skeletal mermaid dress.
I was horrified at the dresses worn by the heavier African American women. Couldn't the designers have respected their size and put their skills to making the women look polished and professional? I thought it was cruel, their clothing perpetuated every ugly stereotype about heavy minority women. Shame on the designers.😵💫
These actresses are all beautiful women, and some of the dresses are truly gorgeous, but I have to say that the current trend of very heavy eye makeup and blush together with the severe pulled back hair styles is not only ageing and unflattering but I had trouble even recognising some of these women. Sadly it looks like Kate Beckinsale has joined the ranks of people who no longer look like themselves for whatever cosmetic reasons.
1. JLo (perfection!) 2. Heidi Klum 3. Natalie Portman 4. Taylor Swift Emma Stone’s dress would have been so much prettier on a black woman. A gorgeous dress lost on her skin tone. She needs more color imo.
Rosalind Pike’s hat was actually topping a plastic mask that was protecting her face because she had broken some facial bones before the globes. I thought it was costume-like too u til I found out why it was there.
Embroidery is so beautiful. Every single item I find with hand embroidery (that I can afford) I buy. My grandmother taught me to embroider as a girl so I have great respect for the art. It add so much lovely texture and drama. I prefer embroidered household linens and such but a coat or a blouse is amazing as well.
I've never seen so many absolutely hideous fashion failures in one place! There were like 5 dresses that I really loved. The rest were mostly various levels of hideous, or failed in a critically important feature that ruined the look.

Although I hate to give it to her, Oprah rocked that purple dress.....
I liked Emma Stone and Taylor Swift 😂😂😂😂

Yes I agree it appears to be trashy.
Many of the dresses looked like lingerie, exposed shapewear, etc.
@ParrotplaySix I find it strange, but maybe it's because I'm older
Emma Stone looked amazing.
@@carolyndymond4065 Just because it's young, new or modern doesn't mean it's good. Style is not a question of age
Ugh, I thought Meryl Streep looked ridiculous.
it did nothing to flatter her

It WAS beautiful. And happy !
@@stellaallbright4750
I felt it needed a necklace
I think the straps being so narrow gave her the shape of a bottle; maybe something like cap sleeves would have been more balanced.
Natalie's dress looks like it was inspired by Monet's Water Lilies. Gorgeous beadwork.
Great review! I appreciate you going into details as to why a dress works, what might have improved it or why it should have stayed on the designer’s sketch pad!😂 So much better than hearing “I love it/I hate it”. ❤

@@ClareM-ef6cl lacy crochet...that's my forte. It's not an old lady's pastime. (I am an old lady).
Don't like Jennifer Lopez, ***BUT*** this is absolutely my favorite look of the evening.
Rosamund Pike was in a skiing accident and had a lot of injury to her face. The hat was designed to hide the bruising. 💜
Yes! Thank you, I thought I had read that somewhere.
she pulled it off. I thought it was a risky look, but executed it well
Well, I'm glad there's an explanation, because although the dress was beautiful, I thought the hat was ridiculous. Makes more sense now.

Florence Pugh was channeling Flock of Seagulls with that hairdo. She was partying like it was 1982. Pity it didn't harmonize with the dress.
Yessss!
That was my thought as well.
I thought more 50's guy hair, with lots of grease.
She thinks she’s edgy.
Ewwww the hair

You're so right, it looked like everybody was trying to be the next Lady Gaga. Change my mind.
I loved all the pink dresses worn that day, JLO, Margot Robbie and haile steinfeld, very beautiful looks !
I loved, loved, loved Natalie Portman's dress. You're right, Beebs, it really was a work of art.
I agree with you but I wish she had smiled.
Almost every problem is the lack of foundation garments.
When the video got to Steinfeld, I thought Audrey Hepburn! Two seconds later you said “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”. I love it when I agree with you almost immediately.

@lynettefinnigan9540 she didn't look happy, but that's not really surprising considering her marriage is in trouble.
Bonitajordan Yes, Ms Portman's dress my favourite too. Gorgeous.
There were some extremely pretty dresses and some nightmares, as Beebs explained.
I love listening to you. You are so good at what you do. Thank you for the work you put into your videos.
I appreciate that!
I was just going to say the exact same thing.
Oprah looked like she was channeling Mae West.
that is what I couldn't place, great comparison.

Can I ask what you dislike about Natalie Portman? I don't know a lot about her but I've never heard anything negative.
I don't like her either. Her politics is very pushy and soapboxy and in your face.
I agree. I just feel irritated when I see her.
I agree. I just feel irritated when I see her.

I expected her to be wearing a pair of matching pink marabou heeled mules Maybe keep that color for the cape, but make the dress itself either somewhat (but noticeably) lighter, or with a touch of pale mauve in the pink.
@@merriemisfit8406 That would work!
@@merriemisfit8406and just a tad too tight, creating those stress wrinkles across her belly.
Most of the designers failed the ladies in the bust areas, they need to learn women have boobs and design more like they did for the old time movie stars, thankyou
totally!!
Bring back yesteryear gowns! These were mostly hideous! 😣
And they're getting worse.
Beebs will you ever design your own collection? You know your stuff!
❤❤❤
Agreed. You nailed the GG looks. Jennifer Lawrence and Natalie Portman were so on point. Loved their dresses!
She really does.
Great Question
I want to go shopping with Beebs!
That was an excellent review of the gowns. I could not have agreed with you more. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💕
I LOVED Heidi's gorgeous red dress! Just beautiful! And hated the freestanding spikes that reached the ears of the poor lady who chose that unfortunate dress.
Excellent review! Thanks
I wasn't sure about the length of the video but found myself engrossed & your pacing, comments & analysis was AWESOME! I always learn from you.
GRREN is my favorite color, olive really but that shade was fabulous on TS!
Emma’s slit was embarrassingly high. I will never understand why a few women feel the need to almost expose themselves. It says something about their lack of dignity and need to draw attention to themselves. That dress would have looked just as lovely with a lower slit.
Remember when the Meg wore that hideous red dress and Beebs remarked that it's not a good look to have a plunging neckline AND a high slit in the same.dress. Emma Stone wore this look and yet no remarks in that regard.
I'm no fan of the Meg but seems a bit of a double standard to me.
I love the colour of Helen Mirren's dress. She often wears things that really flatter her figure.
That's the best I've ever seen Ozemprah!
THANK YOU for doing the Golden Globes!!
Best fashion commentary. Praised the savy dresses, kind comments without trashy Splendid video.
Loved it ♥️ 🇨🇦
Beebs, this is my favorite video so far. I loved the longer format. You have such a keen eye but a big heart. Kudos to you for proper critiques, instead of being unkind and reductive you were a class act!!❤❤❤
Would you speak to the elegance of Gina Torres? She looked comfortable, incredibly confident and beautiful.
Ooh I’ve been waiting for this. Some beautiful looks this year and I thought that the men upped their game too.
You are an incredibly talented fashion commentator. Your reviews, opinions and solutions are 4 star for me.
i love how you pointed out that it sometimes is NOT just the dress but tailoring, alteration, and ironing ......FIT ...cutting off loose ends itself can make all the difference.
Beebs, I love you and love your videos! They are so educational. I love how you give suggestions for what might have made something work better, rather than just saying "This didn't work." I found myself looking at the photos and starting to see the things you pointed out, even before you said them - that means I'm learning! As a DEFINITELY plus size girl, I appreciate how you include pics of ladies that don't conform to the "slender" standard. You never body shame, just speak of body types - not sizes - and the area each might want to avoid emphasizing (and how to do that). My top 5 would be: 1) Oprah Winfrey - stunning color and design; 2) JLo; 3) Heidi Klum; 4) J Law; 5) Emily Blunt. And to add a guy in there, Kevin Costner. Holy cow I almost fell out of my seat!!! Thank you for this excellent video. Please continue, because I love them and learn from them! 💞♥
Without a doubt, the BEST coverage of the Golden Globes fashion! Great Job Beebs! This was a feast for my soul!❤
❤ My fav was Heidi’s!! It would be so fun to wear! An un-tragic res dress!!
Love your analysis! So spot on. I thought Emily Blunt’s dress looked better from the side view, straight-on it gave her a bit of tummy due to the diagonal lines and where they were placed. I think Heidi Klum had such a wow look, probably my favorite. JLo’s opera coat and the fit of her dress were another wow moment. I also liked Rachel Smith’s dress a lot.
I like Rosamund Pike's dress but she should have lost the headpiece.
Natalie Portman's dress was perfection.
Da'vine Joy Randolph's dress needed larger cups and straps. I was really surprised there wasn't a wardrobe malfunction.
Rosamund wore that headpiece because she recently had a skiing accident and her face is still somewhat bruised.
Gosh, I was getting very nervous during her speech, I thought something was about to pop out at any moment!
Jlo’s dress & coat looked beautiful, especially the colour. I think a necklace or thick choker would have been nice too. There was a serious lack of jewelry at the GG’s , imo.
I think the lack of jewelry is in my opinion an attempt to be "less opulent" because of the current state of the world. Probably most of them don't actually care, but want to portray a good image, and we are all well acquainted by now to their need to virtue-signal every chance they get. But that's just a theory. Leaving that aside, I think more jewelry on JLo would have been too noisy because of the dramatic opera coat that was clearly the focal point, but I don't think it would have been necessarily bad either.
I agree the simple jewelry look has been in for a while, I think so it won't outshine the dress.
Osempic got Oprah trimmed down in time for the Globes!!
don't like Okra, but why with ALL her $$$ can she not get fit and STAY fit, and for once she didn't look like there was a fabric shortage
JLo, Brie Larson and the lady that wore the pink version of Audrey Hepburn's dress (sorry, I don't know her name) are the only ones I can say that looked flawless. There were other dresses and looks that I liked, however there was always an issue with tailoring or styling.
I really enjoyed this review of Golden globe gowns
The amount of gowns that accidentally drew attention to the crotch area was inexplicable. Just no.
The tailoring on Brie Larson's dress was exquisite: those darts, that hem 😍 but it was very prom and too young for her, whereas Jennifer Lawrence's gown was womanly perfection 🌟
Ohhhhhhhhh this was so fun!!! 👏🏻 Thank you Beebs, you’re a treasure.
I’m no Jennifer Lopez fan but her dress and hair were perfect. I didn’t like Emma Stone’s dress. It looked like the top needed to be pulled up more and then the slit at the bottom looked cheap. I also loved Heidi Klum’s dress. It was perfection.
You are the best on the internet, Beebs!
JLo estaba también muy espectacular.She is a really beautiful woman.Great shape.
Apparently Rosamund Pike had fallen (maybe skiing - I don't remember) and had pretty significant facial abrasions that had improved but not completely by Golden Globe night.
Wow great detailed review and very spot on with fit and what could have elevated some of the dresses. Your kind too which is hard to find now days!
I have to disagree about Emily Blunt's dress, I thought it was too big, not tailored to her body properly. It wasn't fitted around her waist/stomach area and made her look pregnant or bloated.
Exactly 💯! I thought it was awful 😖.
I thought she looked pregnant too
@@waywardrachel9637 Me too. Hmmm, I wonder??
Yes
I noticed the same thing.
Oh, so many things to say!! I'll to be brief; here goes! 1) Beebs, the eye look today is a KNOCK OUT -- we need a tutorial! Pleeeeeease! 2) Excellent review, Beebs! You nailed every single one! These people should have to line up in front of you before they are seen by the public. If Beebs says no, off it comes! 3) Jennifer Lawerence and Haley Steinfeld were my favorites because EVERYTHING was right: dress, hair, accessories, makeup, jewelry--that's what you should look like on the red carpet. 4) SO MANY tailoring fails!!! I could not believe how poorly some of these dresses were fitted to these women! I don't know if it was that the actresses had too few fittings or their seamstresses just sucked, but I actually felt bad for some of the designers. They put all that work into creating a gown for a vision and there are loose threads hanging from it? Or the straps are too long? Come on!!! It's not the tailor's name going out there--it's the designer's! These people should be more careful; they work around BIG scissors and designers are known to be a bit tempermental!😱
I love when you do these. I could have skipped the show and just waited for your best and worst!! Love how you go into detail and explain. And I agree with your results!! It wasn’t too long!❤
Timothée Chalamet wearing Celine. FAB-ulous!
Oprah's dress was a beautiful shade of purple. The dress and fit overall were perfect. I also liked her hair style with the dress. I think that she got it just right.
You have become the first, & many times only, one that i come to for fashion critiques. You're very knowledgeable and have great ideas on what works better for different body types. Why are you not a stylist for one of these starlets?!
37:54 Black with floral embroidery
3:00 Dior looked like Monet flower garden
Both deceptively simple and very elegant
Sooooo funny…..that the best dress (by far) echoed Audrey Hepburn from 62 years ago!
It was a beautiful dress that surpassed all the fads and attempted show stoppers of more than half a century.
Ive been looking forward to this video Beebs.😊
Ooooh, Dior! I'm sure "someone" was green with envy!👿Jennifer Aniston had a gorgeous, figure hugging dress on and slightly shorter hair but she needed some jewelry and maybe some soft, colorful lips. I loved Natalie Portman's dress - looked perfect on her.
I know! Dior dressed many actors and actresses beautifully. Including Oscar winning actresses 😂
This was fun!
Great video, not too long. Could have been longer. Love your commentary, Jennifer Lopez pink roses was my favorite. Please do a video for other award shows
Thank you for the critique. I don't watch these shows but love seeing the fashion. I agree that tailoring is lacking in so many gowns. Such a shame. But my bet peeve is lack of hair styling. I guess celebrities can't find hairstylists who do creative and beautiful hair. Too bad.
Beeb's your hair in this video was great and better than many of those celebrities. Well done!
Dua Lipa's dress looks like a Halloween outfit-the appliques are bones! Theres the ribs on either side of the bodice, the spine down the centre, and the 2 curved shapes look like the femurs, there's even a neck of femur where they hook a bit at the top. Its an anatomically correct skeletal mermaid dress.
I was horrified at the dresses worn by the heavier African American women. Couldn't the designers have respected their size and put their skills to making the women look polished and professional? I thought it was cruel, their clothing perpetuated every ugly stereotype about heavy minority women. Shame on the designers.😵💫
I didn't like Helen Mirren's dress. That coat gave her way too much volume. It would hage been better without it.
I enjoy watching Beebs' videos. Her critiques are constructive, respectful, and instructive.
Love your opinions, agree with almost all. You are fabulous!
These actresses are all beautiful women, and some of the dresses are truly gorgeous, but I have to say that the current trend of very heavy eye makeup and blush together with the severe pulled back hair styles is not only ageing and unflattering but I had trouble even recognising some of these women. Sadly it looks like Kate Beckinsale has joined the ranks of people who no longer look like themselves for whatever cosmetic reasons.
At first I was sure they were showing the wrong person when she was talking about Kate Beckinsale as the woman on the screen looked nothing like Kate.
I didn't recognize her at all.
Julienne Moore looks like a cut out paper doll wearing that red dress 😂
Some gorgeous looks , pretty much agree with you on that pearl gown .
1. JLo (perfection!)
2. Heidi Klum
3. Natalie Portman
4. Taylor Swift
Emma Stone’s dress would have been so much prettier on a black woman. A gorgeous dress lost on her skin tone. She needs more color imo.
Rosalind Pike’s hat was actually topping a plastic mask that was protecting her face because she had broken some facial bones before the globes. I thought it was costume-like too u til I found out why it was there.
Embroidery is so beautiful. Every single item I find with hand embroidery (that I can afford) I buy. My grandmother taught me to embroider as a girl so I have great respect for the art. It add so much lovely texture and drama. I prefer embroidered household linens and such but a coat or a blouse is amazing as well.
First time I’ve been here, such fun! You are wonderful! I love how your descriptions are on point!
