As usual people looked to the red carpet for the actors to bring out all the stops when it comes to style.  Many trends seen on the runways for both spring 2014 and the current fall season were showcased on the red carpet.  There were the favorites and of course the not so good choices.  All I will say is everyone has been talking about Claire Danes being the best dressed but I disagree.  To be honest, I thought her dress was absolutely lovely but her figure isn't curvy enough to fill out the upper bust area.  To me it looked too much like the top was not fitting her well.  

I honestly didn't have one standout favorite from the event this year.  What was yours?   

Julie Bowen in Zac Posen.
