Navy Is the New Red-Carpet It Color — Which Blue Gown Gets Your Vote?

Countering all of the bold pink hues we saw on the SAG Awards red carpet was a sea of chic navy-blue gowns.

Countering all of the bold pink hues we saw on the SAG Awards red carpet was a sea of chic navy-blue gowns. More specifically, the ones worn by A-listers like Jennifer Lawrence, Nicole Kidman, and Amanda Seyfried. Looking nothing short of spectacular, Jennifer — who took home the prize for best actress for her role in Silver Linings Playbook — wore a strapless Christian Dior Haute Couture gown. Meanwhile, Nicole opted for decadent detailing in a sheer beaded Vivienne Westwood creation, and Amanda dazzled us in a formfitting Zac Posen mermaid gown. This trio of stunning looks deserves honorable mention and a little friendly competition, too. Thus, we're putting their gowns to the test: which navy lady reigned supreme?

Marion, Kerry, and Jennifer Lead the Strapless-Dress Trend at the SAGs

One after the other, beautiful actresses showcased their fabulous red-carpet ensembles at the SAG Awards.

One after the other, beautiful actresses showcased their fabulous red-carpet ensembles at the SAG Awards. And very quickly it became apparent that they were giving us the cold shoulder. Yes, strapless gowns became one of the top trends of the night. Everyone from Kerry Washington in Rodarte to Lea Michele in Valentino to Amanda Seyfried in Zac Posen opted to show off a little more where neckline was concerned. Some added statement jewels for extra pizazz, while others went completely bare for a minimalistic feel. Either way, they proved that strapless silhouettes are still a very sexy option and the best way to play up a skin-revealing detail without going overboard. Step inside to find out who else sported strapless gowns at the SAG Awards.

The Not-So-Basic Black Dress Strikes Again (and Again) at the SAGs

It's official: we've spotted the not-so-basic black dress trend at not one, not two, but three award shows so far.

It's official: we've spotted the not-so-basic black dress trend at not one, not two, but three award shows so far. We first noticed it at the Critics' Choice Awards, then saw it crop up again at the Golden Globes, and now Claire Danes, Anne Hathaway, and Michelle Dockery (just to name a few) are opting for reinvented and reimagined black gowns at the Screen Actors Guild Awards. We're talking about dresses with sexy sheer cutouts, high-shine embellishments, and strategically placed ruffles. If there's one thing we can take away, it's that 2013 is the year we may take a second look at our go-to black dress in the back of our closets — it's time for an update.

SAG Awards: Julianna Margulies

Julianna Margulies opted for a sleek black-and-white Chado Ralph Rucci gown for the SAG Awards. The sleeveless bodice and hemline were black, while the center featured silky white fabric adorned with pockets and a wrap skirt. The thigh-high slit showed off her left leg, but the real showstoppers of Julianna's ensemble were her black leather cutout Christian Louboutin sandals. They lent the perfectly wow-inducing effect. The actress's stud earrings and pearl cocktail ring were also standouts. What do you make of Julianna's look tonight?

SAG Awards: Amy Poehler

Armed with a figure-flaunting black Zuhair Murad gown, Amy Poehler went from funny lady to glamazon (not that the two are mutually exclusive) on tonight's red carpet.

Armed with a figure-flaunting black Zuhair Murad gown, Amy Poehler went from funny lady to glamazon (not that the two are mutually exclusive) on tonight's red carpet. High-shine darting furthered the curve-conscious silhouette, right down to the fishtail hemline, while diamond drop earrings and a bracelet added just the right amount of sparkle. In hand, she toted a croc-embossed clutch and finished her awards-show appearance with blond waves for the complete va-va-voom effect.

SAG Awards: Marion Cotillard

Marion Cotillard stunned on the red carpet in a blue and white Dior Haute Couture silk gown at tonight's Screen Actors Guild Awards. The central ruffle of the saturated blue skirt ended just high enough so that we could catch a glimpse of her classic black pumps. Sleekly styled hair complemented her sophisticated gown, which she also accessorized with a textured black-and-white clutch. No red-carpet look would be complete without jewels, of course — a Chopard watch and diamond necklace were all she needed to finish her outfit with some serious sparkle. Do you think Marion chose a winning look tonight?

Rose Byrne presented at the SAG Awards this evening wearing a refreshing floral and ruffled printed dress by Valentino. The oversize botanical print and hues of pink and blue were a whimsical addition to the sea of metallic and black gowns we've seen all evening. And we love how Rose completed her look with a classic wavy hairdo and bold pink lips. A satin Jimmy Choo clutch, diamond earrings, and statement ring by Van Cleef & Arpels finished off her chic outfit. We love her look — do you?

Like Lea Michele, our favorite Vampire Diaries starlet, Nina Dobrev, was also feeling pretty in pink tonight. She chose a pink Elie Saab short-sleeved crepe gown with subtle lace cutouts from the designer's Spring 2013 collection. Blink and you might miss the thin pink belt cinched at her waist. As for the fancy accoutrements, Nina picked out sparkly drop earrings, a diamond bracelet, and a jeweled box clutch. Do you approve of Nina's pink dress and shiny add-ons?

Glee star Naya Rivera arrived on the red carpet wearing one of the sexiest looks of the night: a black Donna Karan Atelier silk and satin gown. Check out that sultry exposed corset with accordion pleats for dramatic flair. Her top half was daring, but the mermaid-style bottom helped to balance out Naya's dark look. A diamond cutout bracelet, ornate drop earrings, and an emerald ring added the right amount of sparkle and shine. Now we turn it over to you — did Naya's pick do it for you?
