Movie award ceremonies are as much for a recognition of the best movies in the business, as they are for spotting the a la mode of the fashion world. Here's a look at the 10 actresses who have turned heads at the Critics' Choice Movie Awards red carpet — a few for the right reasons, and some just missed the style memo.
Kirsten Dunst simply killed it in this spectacular 1920s' ruffled gown with beaded details by Chanel in 2016.
Worst: Kate Gorney's blue dress goes into the epic fashion fail list. The velvet is no longer in, and the sheer cutouts with a landing strip across your breasts — a definite NO! (Source: AP)
Worst: 'Big Bang Theory" actress Mayim Bialik was all emerald in this medieval-style gown with tonnes of pleating and the look just simply did not cut it. We're thinking more 'Wizard of Oz', actually.(Source: AP)
Best: The always stunning Rosie Huntington-Whiteley donned a black Saint Laurent gown for the Critics' Choice Awards. Though there was much said about her unsightly tan lines at the back, but from the front, the asymmetrical neckline gives a modern edge to a classic look, and the lady pulled it off with finesse.

Best: Actress and former model Sharon Stone wowed in this shimmery salmon-pink gown. The all-over sequined gown featured a scoop back with a cowl, and the minimal makeup just completed a look of utmost elegance with that showstopper appeal. (Source: AP)
Best: The "Danish Girl" star Alicia Vikander is the one to look out for this award season. After pulling off a great look at the Golden Globes, Vikander rocked a Mary Katrantzou sleeveless, beaded gown. The intricate patterns and colours give balance a classic with neuvo chic. (Source: AP)
Best: Amy Schumer does a Marilyn Monroe with this modern, white halter dress from Calvin Klein; and the fashion experts have all given her a thumbs up. (Source: AP)
Best: "Jurassic Park" star Bryce Dallas Howard bought off the rack for the Golden Globes, and now she said she turned to the Internet for this body-hugging black Balmain dress with a plunging neckline. If this is how she shops, then go girl, just start clicking on those websites! (Source: AP)
In 2016, Jennifer Aniston had opted for a flowy gray number by Saint Laurent with a ruffled neckline and super-high front slit. Needless to say she looked ethereal. (Source: AP)
Worst: The usually chic Judith Light seemed to have taken some wrong fashion advice this time because her full-length skirt, black turtleneck and sharp navy blazer completely overpowered her petite figure, giving her a rather billowey look. (Source: AP)
