Celebrity red carpet wrap

This week, Sienna Miller gives us coat envy, Brie Larson needs some adjustments and Demi Lovato gets it half right. By Emma Day.

Well, doesn't Emma Watson look like a real-life Disney princess here? Fitting, as she's at a Beauty and the Beast premiere, and she's basically cloaked in a sprinkling of stars. This ethereal, encrusted-tulle look is by Elie Saab, and it's actually an upcycled creation made using leftover material from a previous collection. And yet my eco-conscious endeavour to turn '90s flares into Avril Lavigne-inspired board shorts circa 2002 didn't make me look anywhere near as glam… curious. Hermione + haute couture, however, is a better match than even Belle and her hirsute hostage-taker. Photo: Getty
Sienna Miller could be wearing bin bag underneath this Dior coat and frankly, I wouldn't even notice. Fortunately she isn't, she's got on a perfectly pleasant monochromatic maxi (try saying that five times after a few pinots), but the standout star here is easily the outerwear. I'd sell my grandma - it's OK, she lives in Wales and will never see this - to have that in my wardrobe. I'd even throw in my grandad as a matching set if Sienna donated her hair to me, too.

Sometimes simple is really, absolutely, truly, definitely the way to go, as Gugu Mbatha-Raw proves in this Oscar de la Renta. The sapphire, shimmering sheath catches the glare of the cameras in the most mesmerising way, while the shoe-flashing midi cut makes the whole thing feel super modern, not showgirly. Mbatha-Raw rightly lets this showstopper of a dress shine, keeping the jewellery at an absolute minimum, and just plumping for a pink lip, slightly undone hair and velvety skin. (OK, the shoes could be upgraded but really, I'm nitpicking). Photo: Getty
Nicki Minaj literally has tinted glasses on, so we can assume she's almost in ignorant bliss about her latest flop (and I'm not talking about the charmingly titled track Stupid Hoe). If the rapper's gone into high-fashion design for breastfeeding mums, then I can see the thinking behind this solo-mammaried shirt, but given that she's got areolas of the Terminator, I can't see a newborn getting much sustenance out of this.

If I could look even 7 per cent as good in this Naeem Khan as Jane Fonda (and I'm talking now, as a 30-year-old woman), I'd be pretty darn smug. The actress looks chic, sleek and statuesque in the tri-coloured gown that's elegant without being OTT in a mesh-covered-with-beading way. The fit's divine, it's perfectly accessorised, the colours are great, and the swirling pattern has me fancying a slice of black forest gateaux right now (and by slice I mean two thirds of a family-size cake).

There are many things I enjoy about Brie Larson's Ralph & Russo, such as the gorgeously tiered skirt, the intricate embellishments, and the way the creamy colour complements her skin tone. However if we could just ditch the mesh, bring the neckline up a few inches, and perhaps whack on a three-quarter sleeve, this could easily go from a like-very-much to a love. Photo: Getty
It's so, so close - and to some, it might even be spot on. Both the periwinkle hue and masterful fit of this Christian Siriano gown make Celine Dion look goddess-like, but I just can't get over that comically oversized bow plonked on her shoulder. It's like Dick Whittington got really into colour-matching his knapsack. Everything else is an A+ though. What do you reckon, readers: yay or nay? Photo: Getty
Showing a complete disregard for the intended function of a belt here is singer Halsey, wearing head-to-toe Versace. We've got (on their own) acceptably tailored trousers, an anorak I'm pretty sure she stole from my 1992 primary-school camping trip, and, well, I just don't even know any more. The gals are so aggressively strapped down that I'm getting sympathy chest pains - even Christian Grey would have gone a little easier with the belt (and, in his defence, at least he sticks to neutrals. In terms of colours, not morals). Photo: Getty
