Noomi Rapace - winner
Wow, it’s her off of Girl With A Dragon Tattoo minus emo hair and face paint.
Jennifer Lawrence - loser

Eva Green - winner
We’re not sold on the sleeves of Eva’s rouched femme fatale Tom Ford gown (is it back to front?) but black and red are a marriage made in heaven and for this

She divided opinion at the Golden Globes in a quirky dress and odd shoes, b
Andrew Garfield - winner
Good heavens, it’s a boy! The Social Network star Andrew Garfield is wearing a suit, like most of the boys who go to awards ceremonies.
Minnie Driver - loser
We wonder if Minnie Driver has spent a bit too much time in the perpetually sunny LA with her choice of summery white Alice Temperley gown.
Hailee Steinfeld - winner
We’re about to see a lot more of 14 year old Hailee as she accumulates nominations for her role in the Coen brother’s True Grit.
