Last night, the 2024 ELLE Women in Hollywood event took center stage, honoring nine remarkable women whose creative and cultural influences have left an indelible mark on the realms of film, television, music, and more. Danielle Deadwyler, Karla Sofía Gascón, Selena Gomez, Mikey Madison, Demi Moore, Julianne Moore, Saoirse Ronan, Zoe Saldana, and Tilda Swinton were celebrated by ELLE Editor-in-Chief Nina Garcia in a glamorous ceremony held at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills.

Unveiling the Fashion Spectacle at the ELLE Event

Cream Dreams Come True

Mikey Madison donned a delicate cream layered organza gown from the Ralph Lauren Collection, exuding an ethereal beauty. This particular shade, which on paper might seem unflattering, actually enhanced her complexion flawlessly. The gown's fluidity was truly mesmerizing. However, let's just pretend that yellow bag wasn't part of the ensemble. It was a sight to behold.The way the light caught the fabric and the way the gown flowed with her every move made it a standout piece. It was a perfect example of how a well-chosen gown can transform an appearance.

Festive but Not Fussy

Cameron Diaz made a soft return to Hollywood ahead of her upcoming Netflix film 'Back in Action', dazzling in a Ralph Lauren Collection ensemble. The sparkling top was a perfect fit for the season, adding a touch of glamour without being overly showy. It was a low-key yet chic reintroduction to the spotlight.The combination of the top and the rest of the outfit created a harmonious look that was both festive and refined. It showed that sometimes, simplicity can be the key to making a lasting impression.

Silk Skirt Success, Turtleneck Tumble

Ralph Lauren Collection's signature silk maxi skirt is often a winner, but Charlotte Lawrence's choice to pair it with a turtleneck seemed a bit too casual for the occasion. A more elevated top could have taken this look to the next level.While the silk skirt added a touch of elegance, the turtleneck detracted from the overall look. It was a missed opportunity to create a more polished and sophisticated ensemble.

Too Much of a Good Thing?

Colman Domingo is typically known for his sartorial excellence, but this Ralph Lauren Collection ensemble of a Prince of Wales jacket, blue ombre trousers, and monogrammed velvet slippers felt a bit too busy. Each piece on its own was striking, but together they competed for attention.It was a case of too many elements vying for dominance, rather than creating a cohesive and stylish look. It served as a reminder that sometimes less is more.

Gold Rush Redemption

After a somewhat lackluster appearance at the Governors Awards, Demi Moore redeemed herself in a Ralph Lauren Collection gold-tiled ombre gown. The gown was both glamorous and appropriate for the event. However, a simpler hairstyle could have elevated the look even further.Demi's choice of gown showed her ability to make a statement and turn a potentially mediocre appearance around. It was a testament to her fashion sense and confidence.

All that glitters isn't gold

The material of this Ralph Lauren Collection dress was indeed beautiful, but it didn't have the desired dazzle. It didn't seem to flatter Eva Longoria at all. There was a certain lack of impact that was disappointing.It was a reminder that not all glitzy items translate into a successful look. Sometimes, it's about finding the right balance and choosing pieces that truly enhance one's features.

Velvet Victory

Joshua Jackson made a strong case for black-on-black velvet in Ralph Lauren Collection. Although he somewhat blended into the black carpet and the step-and-repeat, his look remained swoon-worthy and timeless.The simplicity and elegance of his velvet ensemble showed that sometimes, understated can be just as powerful as flashy. It was a look that will be remembered.

What Lies Beneath

Leila George's Ralph Lauren dress was intriguing, but there was a sense that the knit layer overshadowed what might have been a more exciting silhouette underneath. It was a case of potential being overshadowed by a particular design choice.It made one wonder what could have been if the focus had been on the hidden silhouette instead. It was a lesson in the importance of considering all aspects of an outfit.

Aging…Again

It feels like I need to repeat my previous comments on Selena Gomez. Once again, she opted for a look that seemed to age her unnecessarily. There is a certain lack of thoughtfulness in her fashion choices at times.It's a reminder that even for the most famous celebrities, getting the fashion right is not always easy. It requires careful consideration and a sense of style.

Blazer On, Power On

For Xochitl Gomez, the decision to keep the blazer on was a clear one. With the blazer, her Ralph Lauren Collection look exuded strong Le Smoking vibes. Without it, the outfit felt a bit gimmicky.The blazer added a sense of confidence and authority to her look, proving that even a small detail like a blazer can make a big difference.Stay tuned for more from this event.Credit: Matt Winkelmeyer/Getty Images for ELLE / Stefanie Keenan/Getty Images for ELLE / Phillip Faraone/Getty Images for ELLE@media (max-width: 1200px) { body.ns-inline a.ns-button, body.ns-inline.ns-total-share-count { margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; } body.ns-buttons.ns-inline.ns-button-icon { width: 100%; }}FTC Disclaimer: Keep in mind that I may receive commissions when you click links and make purchases.
