Top 5 Red Carpet Looks at the 2019 Evening Standard Theatre Awards: Michael Kors, Jimmy Choo & More

Back in November 2019, London’s Evening Standard celebrated its 65th Annual Theatre Awards at the iconic London Coliseum, drawing some of the biggest names in British theater and entertainment. As the UK’s oldest theatrical awards ceremony, the event honors outstanding achievements on stage while offering a glamorous red carpet moment that rivals fashion weeks.

That year’s ceremony had a distinct style stamp from Michael Kors, who served as the main sponsor and dressed several attendees in custom and ready-to-wear pieces. From bold crystal embellishments to sophisticated holiday-ready hues, stars like Ella Balinska, Naomi Scott, and Jourdan Dunn turned heads in designer creations that perfectly merged fashion and drama.

From Catwalk to Red Carpet: Ella Balinska Rocks Michael Kors Crystal Pinstripe Suit

Charlie’s Angels star Ella Balinska walked the red carpet with Michael Kors and pulled off a tailored, menswear-inspired look from the American fashion designer.

The 23-year-old actress opted for a white double crepe-sable suit from the Resort 2020 Collection. It is unique with crystal pinstripe embroidery, but the trousers need an inch or two cut off the hem.

Ella elevated the tough-glam look with black nail polish and metallic, winged smoky eye makeup. She pulled her tresses up into a chic bun with a neat center parting.

The British actress decided to skip the jewelry and wear a silver watch as her accessory. She also swapped heels for a pair of comfy but chic flats, which is probably why her pants look too long.

Princess Meets Pop Star: Naomi Scott Glows in Red Miu Miu and Bulgari Jewels

Ella’s Charlie’s Angels co-star Naomi Scott also attended the event. But unlike Ella, the 26-year-old actress left her badass Charlie’s Angel image at home and channeled her inner Princess Jasmine instead.

She wore a bespoke two-piece Miu Miu look, styled by international fashion director Zadrian Smith. It featured a high-waisted, floor-length skirt and a glittery, sequined crop top that allowed her to showcase her toned midriff.

Makeup artist Valeria Ferreira enhanced her look with coordinating red smoky eye makeup, Bordeaux liner, mascara, and scarlet lip gloss. Her short tresses were pulled back into a sleek center-parted ponytail, styled by hairstylist Marcia Lee.

A pair of Bulgari earrings and statement rings, featuring diamonds and rubies, rounded out her look.

Starry Glamour: Ruth Wilson Dazzles in Red Michael Kors and Aquazzura Heels

Also opting for a holiday red outfit was Ruth Wilson, who presented Andrew Scott with the Best Actor trophy.

The 37-year-old actress looked all set for the festivities as she arrived in a Michael Kors Spring 2020 crepe-sable dress. Her striking retro-style frock is entirely embellished with glimmering stars and micro-sequins.

It also features this season’s on-trend structured puff shoulders with long sleeves, a sweetheart neckline, and draping detail on the sides.

Best known for her role as Alice Morgan in the BBC TV psychological crime drama Luther (2010–2013, 2019), the English actress also accessorized with a Bulgari Serpenti diamond ring and completed her radiant look with Aquazzura ‘Very Vera’ heels.

Festive and Fearless: Jourdan Dunn Turns Heads in Green-Gold Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo

Like most attendees, supermodel and actress Jourdan Dunn also opted for a festive look. She highlighted her svelte figure and showed a glimpse of her ribcage tattoo and sideboob in a custom Michael Kors double crepe-sable dress.

The Christmassy green dress features gold and green sequins, gold fringe embellishments, a halter neck, and sexy crisscrossed back straps.

She pulled her hair up into a romantic updo, leaving a few face-framing wisps. For her face, she applied neutral makeup and accentuated her eyes with winged eyeliner and mascara.

Jourdan skipped the jewelry to let her dress do the talking. She then gave her already tall ‎5 10” (178 cm) frame a boost in height with Jimmy Choo’s ‘Misty’ sandals.

Pretty in Pink: Ellie Bamber Sparkles in Chanel Couture and Rupert Sanderson Sandals

Chanel ambassador Ellie Bamber naturally wore a creation from the luxury fashion house. She selected a pink Chanel Spring 2018 Haute Couture mini dress that’s intricately detailed with gemlike adornments.

The faux-layered Christmassy frock features jade and rose quartz crystals, along with a mix of bead embellishments. It also has a feather panel around the skirt and embellished V-shaped straps.

Stylist Elizabeth Saltzman finished off Ellie’s feminine outfit with pink Rupert Sanderson heels. The whole ensemble was cute. However, the unmissable toe overhang ruined the look.
