Also trendy are feathers, evident in Penelope Cruz’s black strapless gown.

Hot momma Heidi Klum’s envy worthy full-volume gown was by John Galliano is going to be auctioned as part of The Heart Truth campaign to increase consciousness about women and heart ailments.
While Francisco Costa sketched Ryan’s one-shoulder, midnight-blue dress up for Calvin Klein.
Another red carpet popular are one-shoulder gowns, as modeled by Hillary Swank in Versace, Olivia Thirlby in Vera Wang, Hathaway in Marchesa and Heigl in Escada.

A number of ladies also picked strapless styles, counting Renee Zellweger in a silver lace dress by Carolina Herrera. The outfit had glitter and yet simple enough to go together with her cropped hairdo.
Jennifer Garner and Laura Linney also decide on strapless gowns and then accessorized them with outstanding neck blings.
