Monique Lhuillier Neon Gown
Three award shows in eleven months - one sparkling neon dress. This fluorescent yellow Monique Lhuillier gown has made a vivid impact on the red carpet this year, worn by three different celebrities at three high profile Hollywood events. Either their stylists have not been paying attention or they must all just really love this dress.
Nicki Minaj donned the radiant lime green trumpet gown to the American Music Awards held this weekend on 18 November 2012. Her signature wild blonde tresses, hot pink lips and a statement gold neckpiece accented her look from Monique Lhuillier's Resort 2013 collection.
Modern Family actress Julie Bowen first wore the glaring acid green gown with drape-folded mermaid skirt to the 2012 Emmy Awards, which was held in Los Angeles on 22 September 2012. A gold Swarovski clutch bag and large Bochic earrings accessorized her outfit. Julie kept her hair and makeup low key.
Back in January 2012, Paula Patton wore what seems to be the same strapless dress, only in a slightly different shade of luminous lime yellow. The Mission:Impossible actress picked out the Spring 2012 version of Monique Lhuillier's showstopping gown for her appearance at the Golden Globe Awards. She carries a Judith Leiber clutch and wears Kwait jewels.
These are both the gleaming gowns as shown on the runway. The design is exactly the same, however the colour of the Resort 2013 dress differs slightly towards a more neon green tone.
As for 'Who Wore It Better'...I think it's clear the stunning and very striking gown suits every skin tone and sense of style, however my vote goes to Julie Bowen. She wears it with class and sophistication. What are your thoughts?

Weird bet but I think Nicki Minaj tamed a little bit for this dress. :)

I like the way Nicki styled it, it suits her (:
Dress is gorgeous in shape, but I don't like the color...Like how it looks on Paula...:)
I LOVE this designer but not a great lover of the neon ;-) However, like you I'm going for Julie Bowen; she looks gorgeous x
I totally agree :D don't like neon, but the one who wore it best is Julie Bowen!
Wow, gorgeous color, I love these dresses!!! Nice post, thank you for share!
Have a happy time!
Best wishes, Alexandra

I think Julie Bowen looks stunning in the Lhuillier dress.
In mine opinion Nicki definitely failed.. the big hair makes the outfit look cheap and this gorgeous dress doesn't deserve that.
LOVE BO,

My vote goes to Paula Patton! I think it looks better with dark hair but I don't really like it on the red carpet.

Wow... three celebs wearing the same dress in one year? Yeah, someone wasn't paying attention. Anyway, I think I agree with you. Julie does wear it better.
Fun post as usual, Sam!!

Its not even a competition Julia Bowen wins like a Zillion times!
She is wearing the dress not the other way around.
Hope you are doing great dear!
wow stunning!!!kisses
It's totally between Julie n' Nicki! They both brought something different to the gown!
Julie did, but this is the best Nicki Minaj has EVER looked. LOL

Hi Sam, I have to agree with you and I think it seems to suit every skin tone beautifully and that my favourite is also Julie Bowen! I also love how it looks on the model in The Resort 2013 picture! Great post sweetie :0
Take care,

I agree, I think Julie Bowen wore it best! Though it looks great on all of them!
Think I'm going to have to go with Julie Bowen too, love the look! What a gorgeous gown too, absolutely stunning.

Julie Bowen deftly wears it better! Xoxo

Nicki Nicki Nicki! Good to see her in something like this instead of the usual wacky outfits. The big hair is a bit much but if anyone can pull it off it's her! xxx
Love the more yellow toned gown and my vote is for Julie! She was one of the best dressed of the entire Emmys :)

I love Julie looks the best! With Nicki's hair it makes her look insane haha

I like the most Paula, its her color pallet - good on her stylist! Julie also good but for her it would be better if this dress was light lemon color, in this case this color has blue undertone what make her skin a little bit unhealthy pale. Nicki - no, no,no one more time NO, bcz this is not her color at all - it makes her appear very sallow.
dare I vote for Nicki? I'm voting for her to transition her style!

The clear winner is Julie ;-) LOVE!!!
That's quite funny that they all wore this gown in the same award season, usually if there's a popular gown it seems like it's spaced out between the stars a bit more. It looks quite gorgeous on each lady, but I think I like it the most on Paula Patton, it looks stunning with her hair curled like that and I like the little pop of color with her clutch. But it's fun to see Nikki is something that's not insane for a change, we get to see how pretty she really is.
Nicki M ;)
I think the dress fits Julie the best :)
Love,

Paula Patton! But Nicki ... COOL!

They all look fabulous and it's an amazing dress (however I would look terrifying in that color)! My vote goes to Julie Bowen :)

Julie Bowen
I love Julie Bowen! But I guess I am biased because I looooove her in Modern Family!
Paula is the winner!!! <3

I like Julie Bowen look :D
Ah such a gorgeous dress! Julie is the one for me! ;)

obviously is julie bowen..but I just adore niki:P
I somehow like it best worn by Nicki Minaj :)
I plan to study abroad, however I do not know the ultimate destination yet.
Three destinations have to be on the application and then it depends on your grades and how many other students applied which country you can go to.
The test is in January, so I still have time to learn :)
My vote is split: it goes partly to Julie Bowen for being perfect and sophisticated, but I prefer the yellow version of the dress rather than the acid green one, so I also have to give my vote to Paula Patton. I like her contrasting hair color.
Paula Patton is the best. The color goes well with her brunette hair.

Oh wow! what a gorgeous dress! I really like this old-Hollywood shape. So classy & so sexy! The canary-yellow colour is fantastic but as well complicated (on me it would look ridiculous). I think it suits better girls with a darker tones of skin & hair. So I say Paula Patton looks the best!;)

I'm not sure this is the best photo, but I've seen other good photos of all these ladies wearing this dress, and I think Nicki actually pulls it off best because of her curves.

And waht beautiful color of those dresses, just love it! Julie Bowen the best!!:)

Oh wow, this dress really is a stunner! I love Julie Bowen's version most, somehow it fits her best, and she looks really pretty and glamorous.

At first I was like, wow, nicki minaj definitely did not wear it best, she looks horrible.. but then I looked twice and was like actually Nicki wore it best! I LOVE how it looks on her, it suits her 'craziness' and goes well with her hair. But ofcourse the other two wore it beautifully as well.

Hi Sam, I love this dress! I like it on Julie Bowen the most! kisses chris
I love them all!♥
I prefer the middle one!
