For the ‘Mad Men’ fans out there, I bet you’re excited to watch the sixth season. However, we all still have to wait till April 7 for its premiere.
The cast as well as other celebrities celebrated the red carpet premiere of the AMC series held at the Directors Guild of America in Hollywood on March 20. Check out the women in their interesting dresses, and let us know who you think was the best dressed!
Jessica Pare in a Prabal Gurung Pre-Fall 2013 Dress
Among the ladies at the premiere, it was Jessica Pare who stood out as she showed a burst of bold, striking colors. She wore a satin sheath dress from Prabal Gurung’s Pre-Fall 2013 collection. It features bright pink and turquoise colors that show a floral design. It also has 3/4 sleeves, and Jessica styled it with a black belt with pink piped trimming. She finished her look with Prabal Gurung for Casadei mesh pumps with white toe caps.

Teyonah Parris in a J. Loren Dress
Another standout look came from Teyonah Parris. Whenever she steps out on the red carpet, this actress shows an incredibly unique hairstyle. She did it again at the premiere. Aside from her natural pompadour, her black-and-gold J. Loren dress also managed to stand out. We’re used to seeing her in tube-top or one-shoulder dresses, so seeing her in a sleeveless, high-neck dress is something new.

Christina Hendricks in an L’Wren Scott Dress
We’ve known Christina Hendricks for her plump figure, and we’ve been seeing her wear outfits that reveal some skin and cleavage. While she usually dresses seductively and stunningly, Christina’s most recent look didn’t really capture my attention. Although it is said that black can make one look thinner, I think the dress did nothing for her. I love the dress when I spotted it on the model, but it just didn’t look good on Christina.
It’s a velvet dress with a button closure down the front. As you can see, Christina chose to open some of the buttons to show a little of her cleavage.

Elisabeth Moss in a McQ Alexander McQueen Dress
Elisabeth Moss is the type who keeps everything classic. If you’re going to take a look at her red carpet photos from the past, you’ll notice she usually wears black. While there’s nothing wrong with that, we’re still hoping to see her try different outfits, say, bolder or edgier ones.
Anyway, at the ‘Mad Men’ premiere, the actress wore another black dress. It’s a sexy above-the-knee frock from Alexander McQueen that features a plunging neckline and structured sides that show a peplum effect. We don’t have a photo of her back, but this dress actually has a zipper closure; however, Elisabeth showed an open back as it looked like the zipper couldn’t go up.

January Jones in a Jonathan Saunders Spring 2013 Dress
Unlike other celebrities who wore dark or boldly colored dresses, January Jones chose to look fresh and light in a Jonathan Saunders Spring 2013 dress. The dominant light blue shade is combined with ivory silk, which is then asymmetrically cut and instead replaced with see-through chiffon. This got her legs exposed, and perhaps just a little movement could show her bikini cut.

Alison Brie in a Givenchy Dress
Alison Brie looked sweet and classic. Her black Givenchy above-the-knee sleeveless dress is simple but edgy. It features a mesh panel on one shoulder and an asymmetrical detail at the chest. Her light makeup added sweetness to her entire look.

Jennifer Westfeldt in a Navy Structured Dress
I’m not really a fan of Jennifer Westfeldt’s dress, but its structured look interests me. There seems to be too much seaming details and lines going on here. This dress falls below the knee and has a mermaid-like detail at the hem, too.

Kiernan Shipka in a Red Valentino Fall 2013 Dress
Last but not the least is 13-year-old Kiernan Shipka, who looked cute in an age-appropriate dress from Red Valentino’s fall 2013 collection. The sleeveless dress features jewel prints that seem embroidered from afar. I love this dress, and I also love how Kiernan styled it with black lace pumps.
