And the Golden Globes are in..

Rooney Mara in Nina Ricci

Forget the Golden Globes, this girl's stylist deserves an award! I have not yet seen Rooney in anything distasteful. She looks absolutely radiating in this Nina Ricci dress. No need for accessories - this dress speaks for itself!

Piper Perabo in Theyskens' Theory

While this may be a simple dress, it's speaks volume (literally!) I do wish, however, that Piper had accessorized this look with red earrings to give the togs a bit of color. Nonetheless, this is by far one of my favorite looks of that night.

Dianna Agron in Giles

This dress fits her like a glove! Dianna looks stunning in this florid (and fiery) ensemble by Giles. The perfect up-do and red lipstick not only does the outfit justice, but it shows off Dianna's beautiful oval-shaped face and lush lips.

Tilda Swinton in Haider Ackermann

It wouldn't come as a surprise to say that Tilda admires Haider Ackermann immensely. She sure loves him and she sure looks good in his clothes. This two-piece dress curves at all the right places and contrasts flawlessly against Tilda's skin tone. The queen of edge sports an androgynous up-do, of which complements the dress immaculately. 

Angelina Jolie in Atelier Versace

Last, but definitely not least, Angelina stuns in this gorgeous A.V. dress. The red lipstick and red clutch add as an appurtenance to the beautifully tailored gown. Not to mention, the mother of six has a smoking body!

It's Official: Marc Jacobs and Others Turn Down Dior

Looks like the rumors that have been circulating around the industry for months of Marc Jacobs and other designers (Haider Ackermann, Christian Lacroix, Ricardo Tisci, Raf Simons, to name a few) taking

over the position of creative director for Dior has been put to rest -- no one wants Dior. WWD has reported that negotiations between Jacob's occurrent house, LVMH, and Dior have ended in an opposition. Apparently, Marc Jacobs wanted to bring his whole team from Louis Vuitton to Dior to "transfer the aesthetic from one house to another", but Dior's president, Sidney Toledano, couldn't confer with Jacob's request. Besides, if Marc Jacobs did leave for Dior, who would take over as the creative director for Louis Vuitton? With all the profit that he's been bringing into the house, it is a very wise decision for him to stay where he is. The old saying still holds true: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." 

As for now, however, the house will still be under the designs of behind-the-scenes designer Bill Gaytten until further notice. And the question still stands: who could take over Dior; who could possibly maintain Dior's aesthetics while levering it as a brand into a new decade? However, the real question everyone should be asking is: who wants to?
