There was an unfortunate shortage of really awful gowns on display--no recycled prom bombs, nothing that looked like it had been stitched together from Aunt Zhu's living room drapes, no giant Glad bags. There were enough sequins, spangles and rhinestones to choke a brontosaurus and plenty of long skirts with long slits. Some of the men looked dressed for a night of bowling or a day at the track which is customary at gala events in Hong Kong.
The entertainment press ran as many images of Shu Qi than of any other five actress together. With no Bingbings to concentrate upon she was the default for glamor. Here she is with Anthony Wong. Her dress goes overboard with visible panty lines--looks like it needed an opaque lining:
Anthony Wong either offering his arm or showing off his manicure:
Backstage, both of them looking as if they had lost a bet and as a result had to wear ridiculous shoes to the big event:
Yang Mi, with Shawn Yue on her arm, led with her strength--her dynamite figure in a tight but not too tight white dress with dangly diamond earrings and a diamond bracelet. The jewelry could have been made from pop-top pulls, the sparkly bits overwhelmed by the simplicity of a beautiful woman in a perfect dress:
Coco Chaing Yi looked like the survivor of an explosion in a chiffon factory and vamped it up on the red carpet:
Cissy Wang and Donnie Yen looked perfect which is customary for them:
Donnie knows how to make an entrance to the birthday party of a fashionista (guess who) carrying a big Chanel shopping bag:
Sina; Xinhua; Go to Yahoo China if you really want to wallow in red carpet pics.
More to come.
