2018 Critics’ Choice Awards standout style

Saorise Ronan (in Michael Kors Collection), from left, Diane Kruger in (in custom Vera Wang Collection) and Emma Roberts (in Giorgio Armani) also attended the Critics Choice Awards clad in white.

Kaley Cuoco, from left, Alison Brie (in Roberto Cavalli) and Rachel Brosnahan (in Zuhair Murad) went with light-colored dresses for the 23rd Annual Critics’ Choice Awards in Santa Monica.

Host Olivia Munn began her night in a red Prada sheath gown accented with a plexi and crystal embroidered necklace.

As host of the 23rd Annual Critics’ Choice Awards, Olivia Munn (pictured with Niecy Nash at far right), went through multiple wardrobe changes duringthe evening.

Nicole Kidman (in Valentino), from left, Kiernan Shipka (in Delpozo) and Yara Shahidi (in Giambattista Valli) were some of the celebrities who enthusiastically embraced eye-catching color on the blue carpet.

Heidi Klum’s nude-colored, sequined-covered Georges Hobeika gown for the 23rd Annual Critics’ Choice Awards had shoulder cutouts and a thigh-high slit -- a marked departure from the dark-colored and mostly covered-up look of Golden Globes’ red-carpet arrivals.

Those whose Critics’ Choice Awards ensembles reminded us of the Hollywood glamour of days gone by included, from left, Mary J. Blige (in a bronze and gold iridescent sequin strapless gown by Vivienne Westwood Couture), Laurie Metcalf (in Cristina Ottaviano) and Betty Gabriel.
