Awards shows always bring an array of beautiful women in beautiful dresses. At the 2010 Golden Globes two nights ago many wore rainbow-colored bracelets in response to the Haiti earthquake. Colors were toned down most likely also a response to the disaster, but those colors did not do any damage to the amazing dresses that showed up. My absolute favorite has to be Maggie Gyllenhaal whose dress was so elegant yet to daring. Starting at the bottom, there's a pretty mermaid tail but right above that is about 3 inches of sheer fabric which I thought looked really great, then layered pieces of raw silk folded and cut over and through one another to make intricate shapes all over the top part of her dress. It was one-shouldered too with the shapes going all the way up to the right shoulder. I give Maggie a 10 for this fun and classy dress!

The rest of these dresses aren't going to go in any specific order but here they are!
Diane Kruger in Christian Lacroix Haute Couture with Chanel Fine Jewelry jewels and a Raven Kauffman clutch. I love how you can almost see-through Kruger's dress by seeing her left leg standing out and the forms at the top of the dress are very retro but then seem to flow into a classic and traditional dress.
Hello Christina! Aguilera looks fab in her new do and tight-fitted Versace dress.
Ok, so maybe this would come in second place! Sofia Vergarra shimmied into this unique Carolina Herrera dress worn with Chopard jewels, it's so different!
Zoe Saldana in a cranberry Louis Vuitton dress and Lorraine Schwartz jewels
Poor Fergie's lilac chiffon Elie Saab dress was stained from the rain at the bottom, but she still looked great!
Super sexy couple George Clooney and Elisabetta Canalis, she accessorized her blush dress with a satin Ferragamo clutch
Emily Blunt in a Dolce & Gabbana dress, Lorraine Schwartz jewels and a Ferragamo clutch
Apparently shades of light pink were popular this year!
