Talk about a warm up for the Oscars!
Hollywood's biggest stars came out tonight for Tom Ford's autumn/winter 2015 womenswear show. It marked the first time the designer staged a show in Los Angeles.
The guest list included Beyoncé, Jay Z, Miley Cyrus, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Lopez, Jared Leto, Reese Witherspoon, first-time Oscar host Neil Patrick Harris, Elton John, Sofia Vergara, Joe Manganiello, Tracee Ellis Ross, Josh Duhamel and Fergie.
And it doesn't stop there.
Also taking in the fashion show were Rita Ora, Amy Adams, Julianne Moore, James Corden, Naomi Campbell, Tyler Perry, Scarlet Johansson, John Legend, Anjelica Houston, Armie Hammer, Elizabeth Olsen, Nicole Richie, Dylan Penn, Olivia Munn, Aaron Rodgers, Fifty Shades of Grey director Sam Taylor-Johnson, Aaron Johnson, Molly Sims and Faith Hill.
Even Vogue edtior-in-chief Anna Wintour made a rare visit to Hollywood for the star-studded extraveganza.
Paltrow told me she and Ford have been longtime friends. So much so that he is the one who introduced her brother to his wife!
"He's amazing," the Oscar winner gushed from her front row seat. "He understands what it means to dress a woman with power, beauty and sexiness."
Cyrus, who had boyfriend Patrick Schwarzenegger with her, looked stunning in a black lace high neck sheer gown from Ford's 2011 autumn/winter collection.
"It takes a lot to get me to want to be dressed up and go out when I'm in L.A.," the singer said. "In L.A., there aren't many fashion shows because people are very laid back here but I do it for him. He cares about the way women feel in his clothes."
Ryan Murphy gave the show an enthusiastic review.
Walking out of Milk studios, he simply said, "I want all of it."
We feel the same way.
