Rebecca Lim was one of the celebs who wore a simple black gown done right. Take a look at the backless silhouette of the Alexander McQueen dress trimmed with various sizes of pearls to add extra dimension and flair. The ring on her right hand and the brooch-like details by her collarbone also feature pearls of varying dimensions. Her look is completed with a Longines museum heritage watch from the 1920s and Goldheart jewellery.

Zoe Tay looked nothing short of a present with her Carolina Herrera gown, from the bowtie top to the floral patterned skirt reminiscent of the crepe paper stuffing found in gift boxes. She went with an understated bracelet, earrings and rings to allow the monochromatic dress to remain the focal point.

Winning praises for her role as a bride from Vietnam in My Star Bride, Chantalle Ng looked nothing short of a princess in her pastel blue Jessica Cindy tulle gown with colourful flower appliques. Her mother, Lin Meijiao, too looked refreshing in her white suit-like jumpsuit with a dramatic tulle train that stood out in the sea of gowns and dresses.

We love it when female celebs are willing to take the risk and shed the usual ballgown for something unconventional, such as Hong Ling’s sharp three-piece suit. To ensure a feminine look, the blazer is built with shoulder pads and cinched around the waist for an hourglass shape. Plus, she and Nick Teo took couple dressing to the next level with their twinning outfits.

Felicia Chin was another actress that went with a more androgynous approach with her red carpet look. She stated that the suit was a homage to a character she had recently played, who had worn suits in the show. Her blazer is from Ralph Lauren, and she added a gold glimmer with the pointed Louboutin boots.

Fann Wong wasn’t on the red carpet but she appeared to present the Best Newcomer award alongside Jeanette Aw. Her sparkly, underwater-themed white dress with a bejewelled bustier caught our eyes. Perhaps, this is an outfit that Ariel would wear when she’s on land.

Another way to slay the red carpet is to go with a foolproof giant poofy tulle gown such as the Gretel Z haute couture gown Jesseca Liu sports here. Her elegant look is matched with loose waves and Chopard ring, choker and earrings.

In a sea of solid colours that veer on the darker side, Paige Chua stood out with her brightly coloured patterned Vaughn Tan dress. The fit-and-flare silhouette was simple but it flattered her physique, allowing the print and understated Harry Winston jewellery to shine.

Rui En shows that you can take a less-is-more approach on the red carpet and still slay. She took the stage in a black square neckline Solace London body-hugging dress and completed it with understated Cartier jewels.

Joanne Peh is no stranger to pulling off amazing looks on the red carpet. As usual, she didn’t disappoint at this year’s Star Awards. Her backless gown is made with a black lace top that gives a peek of the skin underneath, but the spotlight-stealer is definitely the 81.85 carat Harry Winston diamond necklace that hung off her back instead of her neck.

What is a red carpet look without some kind of shimmer and shine? Carrie Wong wore an opulent Nicole + Felicia fit-and-flare gown constructed with a deep V-neckline that would have glittered and glowed under the bright lights.

Pan Lingling’s fire engine red Alex Perry gown had her showing skin tastefully with a bare shoulder and cut-out while the trailing sleeve added red carpet glamour. A chic bob with straight bangs gives her look chic modernity.

Quan Yifong came ready to steal the show for this year’s awards. She dressed in a striking red dress with puffy sleeves and chunky Damiani jewellery and earrings to complement her equally eye-catching platinum blonde hair with frosted purple tips.

Fang Rong took a gamble with an unusual colour choice (at least in Singapore) and it paid off. Her forest green Milla Nova gown features a plunging neckline and a thigh-high slit that shows off her Jimmy Choo heels. Her look is finished with Poh Heng jewellery.

Of course, we’re not missing out on the boys.

On the menswear front, Pierre Png cut a suave figure with his Boss tux that elevates the classic mens’ formalwear with lots of textures and a matching tie. On his wrist: A Panerai watch.

Ian Fang’s jacket with a Mandarin collar gets our thumbs up with its clean sophistication that also stands out among the array of conventional jackets. Plus, it’s designed by the actor himself, too. The Chanel brooch adds just the right amount of flourish.

Elvin Ng’s Alexander McQueen dip-dye print suit has two camps on the Internet – you either love it or hate it. But either way, it’s hard to miss his striking look on the red carpet.

Bryan Wong, who snagged the Best Supporting Actor, sported an equally winning ensemble in a Dolce & Gabbana suit teamed with a black bow tie — classic glamour at its best.
