11 best dresses of '11
2011 was a year of fashion highs... and fashion lows (which we're ignoring!). From colour-blocking to sheer maxis, these are the outfits that made us sigh a collective "ohhhh".
We're now proud to present Cosmo's 11 best dresses of 2011. Which one was your fave?
-
Is it any surprise that Kate Middleton takes the cake in her Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen wedding dress? The perfect gown for a fairytale wedding.
-
Olivia Wilde was in pretty much every blockbuster this year... which means lots of red-carpet events! However, nothing could beat her glittering Marchesa gown for the Golden Globes... and don't forget those studded Christian Louboutins!
-
Blake Lively can pretty much do no wrong in our eyes... but this embellished Chanel gown at the Green Lantern premiere was one of the best. And that tousled beachy braid is To. Die. For.
-
If 2011 is anything to go by, 2012 is going to be even bigger for Mila Kunis. The sexpot topped numerous Academy Award best dressed lists in pastel Elie Saab.
-
Every eye was on Emma Watson at the London premiere of the final Harry Potter film - and the young 21-year-old didn't disappoint in a stunning Oscar de la Renta gown.
-
So, this isn't technically a dress, but as if you could get Miranda out of your head after this year's smokin' Victoria's Secret Show.
-
Emma Stone also had a killer year, with starring roles in some of the biggest movies of the year. Em cemented herself on our best dresses list with this elegant Chanel number.
-
Beyonce's baby announcement certainly stole the show at the VMAs, and this flowing Lanvin dress showed off her newfound curves perfectly.
-
Twilight hottie Kristen Stewart loves herself a strapless bandage-style dress... but this studded Balmain stood out from the dress. And is that a smile? Clearly, she's happy with her choice as well.
-
And the Encouragement Award goes to Angelina Jolie for daring to wear something that wasn't black!
-
2011 was a big year for bombshell Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. Besides being signed as the face and body for Burberry Body, Rosie also went on the promo trail for Transformers: Dark Side of the Moon stepping out in wow-worthy outfits again and again. Our fave? This sexy sheer Gucci ensemble. Wow.
Blake Lively can pretty much do no wrong in our eyes... but this embellished Chanel gown at the Green Lantern premiere was one of the best. And that tousled beachy braid is To. Die. For.
