The red carpet's smoking! Kate Hudson and Naomie Harris lead the glamour at the Elle Style Awards in fiery hues
|
It's one of the taboos of showbiz events - turning up in a scarlet frock to match the red carpet.
But Kate Hudson managed to do it to perfection on Monday night as she led the glamour at the Elle Style Awards in London.
The actress showed off her slim physique in the strapless Stella McCartney gown, emphasising her figure even more with the cut around her bust.

Her English rose complexion was shown off to the max in the bright ensemble which stood out more thanks to the intricate detailing embroidered up each side.
The 33-year-old kept the rest of her get-up relatively simple, with her blonde locks scraped back into an up 'do.
She accessorised with a small clutch bag and long black earrings, while she went for smokey eyes and see-through glossy lips.

Full to the brim of course with the most stylish of stars as they toasted the world of fashion, each model, actress and TV personality had ensured they were coiffed to perfection.

Although despite it being an event of high fashion, there were a few blunders, too.
