Who ever said covering up couldn’t be sexy? As a cold front overtook LA on the eve of the Golden Globes, a group of wise leading ladies took note and dressed accordingly, making long-sleeve gowns one of the night’s hottest trends. The silhouette successfully concealed some toned A-list arms and so many chose to counterbalance that by embracing more revealing elements. Kate Hudson’s stellar Alexander McQueen look was more chic than coy; the plunging neck line was both fashion forward and flattering. Jennifer Lopez is never one to shy away from attention and though there was no shortage of fabric on her Zuhair Murad dress, she still looked semi-nude. Nice work J.Lo. Eva Longoria, for her part took a page from Angelina Jolie’s book and showed off some serious leg in a slitted Pucci stunner. Nicole Richie looked quite elegant in a blue Naeem Khan lace gown, which was probably the most modest of the batch.
