The red carpet seems to be having an avant-garde moment as stars shone in an array of daring, jaw-dropping confections this week. Jennifer Lopez strutted in a floor-length gown made of branchlike velvet cut-outs, and later in the week showed up in a silhouette-skimming dress trimmed by wispy feathers. Emma Watson opted for feather details as well, and Heidi Klum experimented with prints galore. Sienna Miller adopted gypsy layers, while Blake Lively struck a chord in an electric blue suit with a plunging neckline. We love it when celebrities think outside the style box!
