See our top 5 Canadian Screen Awards looks »

Last night’s TV schedule had a fair amount programs vying for viewers. Between Girls, Lindsay Lohan’s Oprah debut and all too soon finale of True Detective, there was a lot of action to soak up. But perhaps less well known, but just as noteworthy, were the Canadian Screen Awards, held Sunday night in downtown Toronto and broadcast live on CBC. The 2nd annual awards show brought together stars from Canadian television and film—as well as some high-wattage style on the red carpet.

Presenter Jessica Paré, our March cover girl and Mad Men star, wowed in a dramatic black mini dress with lace panelled sleeves by Stella McCartney. She accented her short-hemmed look with modern white earrings, a strong emerald-green smoky eye and windswept up-do—looking glamorous yet still effortless and at ease. Pretty Little Liars’ Shay Mitchell also kept things a little more easy going, letting her lightly ombré-d hair go free in loose waves with an on-trend orange lip driving the look. Her black and white colour-blocked dress with deep-v neckline and and rib-cage cut outs had an athletic vibe to it—in a good way—and was paired with simple gold bangles.

The A-listers were abounding at the Dallas Buyer’s Club premiere at TIFF 2013—you know, the one that famously required co-stars Matthew McConaughey and Jared Leto to lose a combined 68 pounds. It seems these guys haven’t fully bounced back from their weight loss as they were looking verrrry tiny on the red carpet.

Leto was channeling Tom-Cruise-circa-Interview with the Vampire in an all black suit, combat boots, and blood red pocket square that set off his flawless pale skin, piercing baby blues, and ombred locks. We should probably mention that he’s 41.  He looks 25. Get us whatever facial cream he’s using. Stat.

Thankfully, McConaughey ditched the blood-hungry look in favour of a classic black suit, skinny tie, and crisp white shirt. We can’t help wondering if this was the influence of his model wife Camila Alves McConaughey who chose an elbow-length black shirt with tapered black pants.
