What will Felicity Jones wear to Oscars 2015?

As we are counting down the days until the 87th Academy Awards, we all probably have one question in mind: "What will the big stars wear on the red carpet?"

To answer your question, here is my prediction about the English actress Felicity Jones.

What is Felicity Jones going to wear to this year's Academy Awards? If you ask me, it's going to be a dress designed by Raf Simons for Dior. Ms. Jones has been favoring the brand since the premiere of The Theory of Everything and has worn its designs to several big occasions, including the Golden Globes. For the big night she might choose a gown from the house's latest Haute Couture collection or wear something modified from the international Pre-Fall '15 show staged in Tokyo.

If Felicity's stylist, or the house of Dior, decides not to share the spotlight with French actress Marion Cotillard on the red carpet, Ms. Jones will most likely turn to her other favorite brands. One is Valentino, the other is London-based designer Erdem and the last one being the most popular British house, Alexander McQueen, mostly famous for its controversial founder and lately because of Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge's wedding dress.

What will Julianne Moore wear to Oscars 2015?

As we are counting down the days until the 87th Academy Awards, we all probably have one question in mind: "What will the big stars wear on the red carpet?"

To answer your question, here is my prediction about the gorgeous redhead Julianne Moore.

It never hurts having Tom Ford as a best friend, especially when he creates custom gowns for you to wear around. In my opinion Julianne Moore will definitely be wearing an outfit of the designer's to the Oscars, and while it is probably going to be specifically designed for the occasion, I took the liberty to choose something I would like to see her in. If there is anyone who can rock a sequined top with pants it's Ms. Moore, especially when it looks this good against her fiery red hair, but of course she would look equally charming in an achromatic printed dress from Ford's Resort '15 collection.

If, by any chance, she opts out of wearing Tom Ford, I believe she could end up in one of her three favorite brands. Julianne was once a Chanel girl so she could easily go back to her roots for the big night, or she could always wear a custom design from Riccardo Tisci for Givenchy or a dress made by Alexander Wang at the French brand Balenciaga.

What will Marion Cotillard wear to Oscars 2015?

As we are counting down the days until the 87th Academy Awards, we all probably have one question in mind: "What will the big stars wear on the red carpet?"

To answer your question, here is my prediction about the beautiful Marion Cotillard.

When it comes to this year's Oscars, one thing is certain - Marion Cotillard is going to wear Christian Dior on the red carpet. The French actress has been wearing Dior almost exclusively for the past few years due to her contract with the brand to advertise their merchandise. 

For the big night I believe she will go for a dress from Christian Dior's latest S/S '15 Haute Couture collection. The blue confection is an obvious choice as it is the girliest dress from the show, but the sporty dress with a yellow top and delicately sewn striped skirt, which could easily be transformed into a gown, sounds like a tempting alternative.

How to look professional in a T-shirt

Few of my male friends have new-found jobs at companies which dictate a certain dress code for their employees and constantly ask me what they should wear. Being the semi-formal person that I am, I always tell them that there is a way to be comfortable but still look sharp for work.

I dislike shirts. I think they are restrictive (especially for people who excessively sweat)
and I personally prefer them around my waist than underneath a jacket, so I wear a lot of T-shirts. The thing is, on people with the right personality and the right accessories, T-shirts can look as sharp as shirts when worn with a suit and I am about to show you how.

First of all, make sure to always wear a fitted suit. Leaner men can easily get away with cigarette-cut pants and slim jackets and look very professional and sexy. In order to look influential buy suits in black, navy, different shades of gray or deep burgundy and avoid brown or khaki. Always pair your suit with sleek, shiny shoes in coordinating colors, a slim belt and an expensive watch. 

Make sure the T-shirt is plain and only go for a pattern if you have an eye for 'mixing 'n' matching' or if your workplace allows a burst of personal style. The T-shirt should always be wrinkle-free just like you'd treat a shirt and be made out of high-quality fabrics such as soft cotton or cashmere. You should have several T-shirts in neutral colors such as white, black, gray or navy at your disposal, depending on the color and style of your suit.

My last piece of advice would be to be a savvy shopper. Your suit should be the most expensive part of your outfit as you need show off class and quality and there is no better place to shop for one than Paul Fredrick. Besides suits, the company offers a wide selection of dressy shoes and interesting belts. In order to have more T-shirts, buy ones from basic lines which are cheaper and yet very often maintain a high level of quality. Follow these rules and you are set to go!
