Robert Pattinson in Gucci

Kristen Stewart in Elie Saab

Dakota Fanning in Elie Saab

Twilight Eclipse premiered last night, and the stars made an eye-opening fashion impact.  Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning took top honors in Gucci and Elie Saab respectively.  Rob wore a maroon colored Gucci suit that was fitted to perfection.  The color choice was risky, but this vampire totally made it work.

Then there was Kristen Stewart in a white one-shoulder Elie Saab dress.  It was a sexy look that sparkled with a daring cut-out in the back.  Her look was young and rocking, and a great choice for the evening.

Dakota Fanning also wore an Elie Saab dress.  Her dress was a nude one-shoulder look that was young and flirty.  It was also a little more modest than Kristen’s, and very befitting for her age. 

They each got it right at the premiere.  It appears young Hollywood is maturing before our eyes, at least in their fashion choices.  Oh, and if you were wondering, I’m Team Edward!

1. Sandra Bullock in Oday Shakar

2. Scarlett Johansson in Dolce & Gabbana

3. Eva Mendes in Stella McCartney

4. Cameron Diaz in Diane von Furstenberg

5. Kristen Stewart in Dolce & Gabbana

These five ladies represented the trend of the evening.  It was a night of bold colors, sparkles, prints and legs.

1. Sandra Bullock was sexy in a black beaded dress with a plunging back.  She pulled out all the stops last night, and received an MTV Movie Generation Award.

2. Scarlett Johansson was very lady-like in her emerald green cocktail dress.  The actress was very elegant and poised in Dolce & Gabbana.

3. Eva Mendes sparked in silver and turquoise sequins.  Stella McCartney’s one-shoulder dress was on-trend for the night.

4. Cameron Diaz was all legs in her printed mini dress.  It was youthful and summery, just perfect for the more layed-back movie awards show.

5. Kristen Stewart was a winner all night.  She took home the award for best actress for Twilight, and the movie won virtually every other award.  The actress opted for a short gold and tweed mini dress by Dolce & Gabbana for her big night.  Her dress was young and a little unexpected.

Twilight fans are rejoicing today because they’ve gotten a glimpse of the final installment in the Twilight trilogy.  Oprah landed the exclusive on the new Twilight Saga: Eclipse trailer, and aired it on her show today.  If you thought the first two films brought about the kind of hysteria once reserved for rock stars, wait until Eclipse’s June 30 release date.

Today is the premiere of The Twilight Saga: New Moon, and it opens nation wide tomorrow, November 20th.  To my surprise, the  Twilight bug has finally bitten me, at least I think it was a bug.  Having already been through the vampire phase several times over in the 1990′s, I was very resistant to a new crop blood suckers.  While many were waxing poetically about the great characters from Twilight and New Moon, I often looked on with a glazed look in my eyes.  That was until I caught a recent interview with one of the stars, Robert Pattinson, and was left with a healthy respect for his, um, talent.  Pattinson is very engaging and extremely likeable, yup, all the right traits to be successful in the vampire business.  He plays Edward Cullen alongside Kristen Stewart, as Bella Swan and their chemistry is off the charts.  No wonder they are constantly plagued by rumors of an off screen romance.  Legend has it that our fascination with vampires is sexual in nature; I’ve never really bought into this theory, until recently.  Now the sceptic walks away a believer, and admittedly, with a bit of a crush.  New Moon makes our Rollcall list this week.  The first movie grossed $383 million worldwide, and this one will rival its predecessor’s box office receipts.  It’s is definitely on my must see list, even if I’m unwilling to brave the crowd of teenage fans this weekend.
