Nina Dobrev in Vionnet at the Teen Choice Awards: lovely or too short?
This morning we’re bringing you some of the fashion from the Teen Choice Awards. Most of it was dressy casual, like the sparkly pink and purple Vionnet shorts suit that Nina Dobrev wore. She presented Choice Movie Actress, along with Kellan Lutz. (That went to Shailene Woodley for Divergent, which Bedhead will be covering shortly.) While they were presenting, Kellan stood away from Nina and joked that she had five boyfriends already and that he didn’t want to get added to the list or something. That was a reference to this photo that Nina posted last week making fun of the rumors about her dating life. The joke fell flat and Nina looked a little uncomfortable. Leave it to Kellan to only be able to act serious when he’s supposed to be joking.
Nina looked cute and occasion-appropriate. I like that she took a risk with a kind of offbeat shorts outfit and I think it works. The pink shoes are a bit much, I would have liked to see more neutral shoes but that’s a minor complaint.
Bella Thorne, on the other hand, was goofy looking in a custom Johnny Wujek for Candies gown. The split bustier has a kind of ice dancer look to it and the flared structured skirt looks off somehow. Along with that big blue flora print, it was just a fug dress. It seemed like there was a Candies commercial featuring Bella at every commercial break, they must have been a major sponsor. Bella also presented the Candies Style Icon award, which went to Zendaya.
Chloë Moretz was in a Valentino Resort red and black shorts suit with a jacket over a bandeau top. She looked very thin on stage, I noticed her ribs a couple of times. The print on this look is too much and looks busy, it might have been ok with a solid colored skirt or jacket, not two of that same pattern at once. Her styling was very pretty though, I really like her hair.
Lucy Hale was in a red Christian Dior gown that flattered her but was otherwise unremarkable. The color is very pretty though. Lucy won Choice Actress in a Drama for Pretty Little Liars. She mentioned in her speech that she’s not a teenager. She’s 25! I bet she has to remind people of that frequently, she looks so young.
Lucy tried to spice up her look with these black and gold spike Brian Atwood sandals. At least she kept her jewelry simple.
Finally we have presenter Hailee Steinfeld in Elie Saab. Like Chloe’s outfit, this look is too busy overall, but unlike Chloe, her styling doesn’t save it. This is too much makeup and too much outfit on an otherwise beautiful girl. She’s only 17, just like Chloe. She has plenty of time to get into a better style groove.
