While Paltrow wore head-to-toe Prada, "Where Have You Been" singer Rihanna turned heads in a backless, body-hugging Tom Ford dress and Christian Louboutin heels. The Avengers' Johansson looked like a modern-day princess in a Dolce & Gabbana dress and Christian Louboutin heels. She accessorized with a Judith Leiber clutch and Fred Leighton earrings.

Zellweger wore a custom Emilio Pucci silk gown with chiffon details and an organza train, while Alba donned a Michael Kors gown with Roger Vivier's "Pilgrim Coeur" clutch.
