The Artist became the first silent film to win the top prize at last weekend’s Baftas in London (often viewed as a dry run for the Oscars in two weeks’ time), taking the award for Best Film and Best Actor. Meryl Streep (below) won Best Actress for The Iron Lady.
Here are some of the most striking frocks on display:
1. Penelope Cruz (above), 2. Meryl Streep (below)
3. Christina Hendricks(in Vivienne Westwood) 4. Michelle Williams5. Naomie Harris

6. Jessica Brown-Findlay (is her next rôle a governess?)
7. Edith Bowman (is that a tent?) 8. Christina Ricci (Is that a bar of Toblerone?) 9. Tilda Swinton 10. Miss Piggy (immaculate in Vuitton) – the star of the show! Miss Piggy rools OK!

Your crime/psychological suspense novels are really good- contemplative and well written. Just downloaded them both from the Internet!
Beautiful stars, gorgeous gowns but we all know that nobody can hold a candle to Miss Piggy!!!
Heeheehhee, I love it!
God bless ya and have a beautiful day sweeite!!! :o)
So much fun to see how the stars are dressed for the awards. I must say Miss Piggy's attire is awesome!
I like to go to the movies, don't often enough though.
Enjoyed these beautiful women - Meryl's the best!
I think Miss Piggy takes the cake. Never knew about BAFTA until now.
Ms Piggy is always the star of all! ^_^

What lovely gowns! Even Miss Piggy looks wonderful.
Miss Peggy is such a character! I love her look! Cruz and Streep look fabulous! Some of the get ups celebs wear just knock my socks off laughing! But I do enjoy your posts! You are always sharing something fun! Enjoy the weekend! Hugs Anne
Meryl Streep is one awesome woman! And what happened to Tilda Swinton's make-up? I'm all for the natural look, believe you me, but that photo looks like she completely forgot to put any on. hmmmm
Meryl rock life...nuff said:)
Meryl Streep is so classy. I love that pic of her!
I have the biggest crush on Meryl! And so often she doesn't look like the amazing actress she is. So glad to see her rocking it!

The yellow dress is luscious!
Meryl Streep was awesome in the Iron Lady. I have yet to see The Artist.
I can't really choose which one I like the best. Some of them are pretty strange, though.
Tilda Swinton looks like she's going into an operating room - as a patient, draped for surgery or as member of the surgical team - very strange!
Stars all decked out in pretty dresses.. always fun to see who wears what.
I have to say, I think the best dressed of the lot is Miss Piggy. When you've got it, you've got it ;).
A red carpet says that special people are crossing over to the venue. I did notice that the red carpet works best with a black dress, I don't know why. Whatever clothing color, a red carpet signifies style, class and really special!

Oh... I feel all glamorous now...
Although I don't think I could pull off any of these quite like they do...
Great post for the letter "M"!
Thanks for linking.
A+
Meryl still looks great.

The deep rich red of Penelope Cruz's gown is absolutely stunning!!! I watch American Oscars just because of the fashions.

Hi Lola and Nora,
Oh yes, Miss Piggy in Vuitton gets my vote {she must be so rich}
Penelope Cruz's dark red gown is elegant.
Hope that you are enjoying the week

Hi there Nora and Lola!! I have several favorites...Meryl Streep and Penelope Cruz, I always love...and Michelle Williams!

Lots of elegant ladies at this function. Some were not dressed very much tho.
I think that they all look great, and I should look half as good as these women! They've definitely got guts, to get out there and face those that will ridicule them the next day!
Happy REDnesday,
Carol
So many gorgeous gowns at the Oscars. I lovvved the show.
But I have to disagree with you about Stacey's gown. I thought she looked gorgeous. :-)
Gowns are all beautiful but the first red gown is my choice:)
