What Are You Wearing, Elle Fanning?

The 2013 Critics' Choice Awards were a memorable affair, both for the movies and the fashion.

Elle Fanning and Jennifer Lawrence

We spent a good part of Thursday night schmoozing with celebrities at the 2013 Critics' Choice Awards. Naturally, they all looked fab — but a few looked better than others.

Best dressed

Emily Blunt, Naomi Watts and Marion Cotillard looked amazing at the show, but Jennifer Lawrence was definitely the best dressed of the night in her black (and belted!) Prabal Gurung gown.

Then again, it seems we're really into leather these days.

Lawrence wasn't just there to look pretty, though: She won two awards during the show. Her first — Best Actress in an Action Movie — was for her role as Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games. The second — Best Actress in a Comedy — went for her role opposite Bradley Cooper in Silver Linings Playbook.

Worst dressed

On the other hand, teen actress Elle Fanning left a lot to be desired in her head-to-toe Chanel look. We like the dress, but it's definitely not awards-show worthy.

And don't even get us started on the platform sandals.

Fanning's made no secret of her love of vintage and hippy-inspired fashion, so we're not surprised she opted for this ensemble.

"For my own style, I love vintage — '60s and '70s are my favorite," she told Seventeen last year. "I love baby doll dresses and the soft colors. I try to mix a little bit of modern into that — maybe I'll wear it with boots. At my school we wear a uniform, but we have one day a week we can wear whatever we want."

Makes a lot more sense now!
