Overall I’m the most infatuated with Michelle Williams in Louis Vuitton and Jessica Chastain in Alexander McQueen! Both gowns are breathtaking pieces of couture with master craftsmanship at their finest! The intricate detailing in the dresses have an unparalleled elegance to any other gowns spotted on the red carpet! Though Michelle Williams’ LV gown had minimalist embellishing, I’m enamored with the striking fabric detail in the bodice and train that looked absolutely stunning! Plus, Jessica Chastain’s Alexander McQueen gown literally made my heart stop. The ornate craftsmanship in Chastain’s dress epitomized McQueen’s unconventional and lavish trademark that make him one of the greatest designers during his lifetime and left a profound legacy in the fashion industry!. The golden embellishments in this particular piece contrast against the black fabric exquisitely….
