Michelle Dockery and Lupita Nyong'o at DuJour magazine's Great Performance Issue event ahead of Golden Globes

Special DuJour! Michelle Dockery gets her posh on for magazine's Great Performance Issue event ahead of Golden Globes 

On Saturday in Hollywood THE big event to be at, or at least invited to, was DuJour magazine's Great Performance Issue Pre-Golden Globes Party.
Downton Abbey's Michelle Dockery led the star-packed charge dressed in what amounted to regal European chic. Barely showing an inch of flesh, the actress still looked every inch the global star her British TV drama has turned her into.
Wearing black heels and a black ankle-length dress with a white collar, it was very old-school Hollywood, but at the same time had a truly sophisticated air of glamour to it.

    Comeback queen Tara Reid also made an appearance at the DuJour event, wearing an outfit that was more cool than it was chic, especially her skinny jeans.
    The actress appears to be back on track now with a wealth of new movies and projects that she is attached to. One of them includes the comedy satire The Hungover Games, which is a send-up of both The Hunger Games and The Hangover.
    Ross Noble and Ben Begley are the stars with the movie due for release in the US in March.

    Someone who Hollywood has been taking a lot of notice of lately is Lupita Nyong'o from 12 Years A Slave. The actress arrived at the DuJour event with her 12 Years A Slave director Steve McQueen and happily posed for photos of herself with the current DuJour cover.
    She wore a truly beautiful dress that almost qualified as a work of art and was in a similar colour palette to the one she wore on the cover of DuJour.
    Founder/CEO Jason Binn also made sure that he got in on the action too as he happily posed with the stars for photos too at the event.
    Looking like he needed a good meal at the event was Game of Thrones star Kit Harington
