Hollywood's Award Season has officially begun and while umbrellas were the most popular accessory at this year's Golden Globes, it takes more than a little rain to stop the glitz and glamour. Of course, only a few celebrities dared to wear vintage at the Globes--most notably Julia Roberts in vintage YSL and Penelope Cruz in vintage Armani--but a vintage fashionista can hold out hope that we'll see more smashing vintage evening wear strutting down red carpets in the week's ahead. Of course, donning a vintage evening gown doesn't guarantee that you'll end up on a best-dressed list---you still need a discerning eye!---but reaching back to the early era of Hollywood glamour can certainly give you a fashion edge. Just take a look at this little collection of vintage evening gowns that are Red Carpet-ready! Click the slideshow to see the selection.
Can't Wait For The Golden Globes? Check Out Our Red Carpet Gown Predictions!

Last week's People's Choice Awards only served to whet our anxiousness for the arrival of awards show season, so if you're as excited as we are to kick off the red carpet's busiest time of the year, you've gotta be counting down to the Golden Globes (2 days!!). While I can't even begin to predict who will sweep up the majority of the trophies this year (Glee! Glee! Glee!), I have started to speculate on what the night's leading ladies might wear. Rumor has it that stars are playing it safe by sticking to their signature looks... but maybe that's just what they want us to think so they can sufficiently blow our socks off come arrival time! If I were to guess, Angelina Jolie will probably stick to her tried-and-true boring black dresses, and Marion Cotillard will show up looking elegant as ever in something beaded and strapless... but newcomers like Lea Michele and Zoe Saldana are a little harder to pin down. Of course, it's very unlikely that any of the event's A-listers would be caught dead in something currently available on the racks at Saks or Bloomies, but I think my picks are still a pretty good guesses toward whatever updated, hot-off-the-sewing-machine gowns they'll end up rocking on the big night. Check the slideshow for my predictions!
