First off, there were some really beautifully dressed individuals both men and women, both VIPS and general audience, of course some VIPS over shone the other guests but I did spot some really cool outfits from both areas.
However, speaking on a general basis, as far as female fashion went...I was very happy that most people did get dolled up and there were very few faux pas but I had hoped to see some more women, especially some VIPs who I expected to really go all out, play it a little less safe, I feel like a lot of women were happy to simply 'wear a dress' without experimenting in some way with maybe a different hairstyle, bold colours or striking accessories. Now the men, that's actually a different story...there were many stylish men, some wearing contrasting colours or clashing patterns, bow ties and other adornments - thumbs up to the men..I was very impressed.
I think Maltese women in general need to start being a little less conservative and experimenting with style a bit more, whilst there will of course never be anything wrong with a pretty dress, at the end of the day, unless the dress is some elaborate couture design that speaks a million and one style words, I think it might be a good idea to start looking at adding that something special that gives an outfit your own personal touch because otherwise you're just another girl wearing another pretty dress.
Now as regards to who I liked most please remember that this is just MY OPINION but for what it's worth here goes....
American Ambassador to Malta Gina Winstanley (vip) looked fabulous in a layered dress and crop top outfit - her crop top is by Greta Wallace of SimplyGreta (New York). Unfortunately she couldn't recall the exact name of the boutique from where she picked up her fabulous necklace.
I loved all the ilsien in-nisa girls (vip) and they all get a huge thumbs up but Moira Delia gets extra bonus points for her menswear inspired outfit that was original, extremely flattering and just oh so cool.
Karen Borg (simshar audience) looked lovely in her her vintage inspired gold dress and lace bag, loved the minimalistic accessories and red nails too!
Of course, one can never say enough words about Clare Agius (vip) and how lovely she looked. I loved the hair, the makeup, the dress by Charles and Ron ....stunning
When I first met Sef Farrugia (vip) she had this thing whereby she would produce a whole collection for a fashion show and then walk out at the finale not wearing one of her own designs (because she didn't have time) ....finally, she seems to have wised up and good thing too because in this look she is one of the best self-adverts she could possibly be...the dress is amazing as are the shoes she paired it with and of course her trademark hairstyle.
Unfortunately I am unaware as to who this beautifully dressed woman is...leave me a comment if you do.... also, these photos don't do this dress justice as the back (backless with a knot but cut beautifully) was the best part...she looked fabulous though. NOTE * Mystery woman identified - Margaret Seguna
Noelene Miggiani (simshar audience) gets a big thumbs up for pairing a black catsuit with a gold knit cardigan that I loved and conveniently kept her warm in the chilliest of nights..... and LEOPARD print shoes.
Pianist Giselle Grima (simshar audience) caught my eye for her choice of colour and the lovely shoulder design on her dress, she looked great!
Makeup Artists Tamara Burr (simshar audience) shows us how vintage should be worked- as always she looks fabulous, a perfect mixture of cool,trendy,stylish , quirky..loved it!
Actress Laura Klepo (vip) wowed from head to toe in her outfit (in a design by June Shop Paris, tailor made by Nelly (a French stylist)) that combined different textures and patterns....and with her 8 month baby bump nonetheless, a fashion inspiration too all expectant mothers-to-be.
And of course ..last but definitely not least ...the brains behind this movie Rebecca Cremona (vip)...in a Sef Farrugia custom-made gown and amazing antique gold filigree jewellery (GABA Jewellers) that I was tempted to rob her of.
