Plunging necklines, high slits and waist cut outs, oh my! Kelso’s girl, Mila Kunis, her Third Person co-star Moran Atias and our favourite country star Taylor Swift hit TIFF red carpets and bashes in enviable white frocks.

For her TIFF 2013 debut, a smokey-eyed Mila Kunis was sultry in a white doily-esque textured dress with a plunging neckline at the Third Person premiere. The Burberry Prorsum Resort 2014 crotchet dress was paired with drop emerald earrings by Nam Cho for Gemfields and Christian Louboutin pewter python heels.

While the royal baby bump watch has sadly come to an end number of A-list stars have been seen flaunting their motherhood on the red carpet including two glowing mothers-to-be Kate Winslet and Melissa George at TIFF 2013 this past week.

Last Saturday, Kate Winslet arrived on the red carpet for the premiere of her film Labor Day looking absolutely radiant in a black floor-length gown by Jenny Packham. The bespoke dress featured a deep V-neckline and an empire waist with a Swarovski embellishment at the centre—a perfect showcase for a growing tummy. Winslet chose to keep her accessories at a minimum with a metallic box clutch, forest green pointed-toe heels and subtle silver and diamond jewellery. With a healthy, natural glow of an expecting mother-to-be, a no-fuss chignon with side-swept bangs and coral pink lips finished off her graceful red carpet look.

Running or walking, Joseph Gordon Levitt is hot. At the TIFF 2013 premiere of his directorial debut Don Jon, the multi-talented actor did a speedy lap to greet fans before entering the Princess of Wales Theatre for the screening. And while he may not have arrived on time, he certainly did so in style, wearing a slim pinstripe suit with and accenting plaid tie. Whatta guy.

Olivia Wilde looked cheerful and flirty with her beau Jason Sudeikis at her red carpet premiere of Rush on Sunday night, a mood enhanced by her ’60s sexpot cat-eyes and tousled waves. L.A.-based makeup artist Melanie Inglessis (who also did Wilde’s makeup for FASHION’s September cover) was responsible for her look, which was a nod to the retro feel of the film, the true story of rival race-car drivers in the 1970s.

“I did a really sharp black line on the eyes and a lot of lashes, like a modern Sophia Loren,” says Inglessis, who used a full strip of lashes for each eye but cut it into five pieces, applying them along the lashline and on top of one another for maximum coquettishness. “It was a flared cat-eye, shorter at the beginning and longer at the end.”

Hollywood’s biggest stars arrived last night for TIFF 2013’s most anticipated world premiere of August: Osage County. The film has been getting much Oscar buzz , which isn’t surprising considering its all-star cast. While two of the big Hollywood names, Meryl Streep and George Clooney, who produced the film, didn’t show up at last night’s red carpet event, there was more than enough attention with the sea of fans and photographers eagerly waiting outside Roy Thompson Hall.

Straying away from her usual go-to black ensemble, Julia Roberts glowed in a playful yet elegant red mini dress from Dolce & Gabbana’s Fall 2013 collection. With the red shift dress already featuring intricate lace embroidery and bell sleeves, the actress toned down the colour scheme in the accessories department with a neutral clutch and matching shoes. With her million-dollar smile making the perfect accessory, the lady in red (get it?) showed off her effortless beauty in a messy bun, oxblood nails and neutral pink lips.

When Harvey Weinstein asks for a favour, you jump on a plane and walk a red carpet at TIFF. As such, Taylor Swift arrived in Toronto yesterday for the premiere of One Chance, a film that’s based on the true story of the first winner of Britain’s Got Talent and also happens to feature one of Swift’s songs.

Swift certainly brought her star power to the red carpet, which was lined with eager fans. She wore a white silk cut-out dress from the Resort 2014 Calvin Klein Collection that may as well have been painted on—the fit was impeccable. Gold heels and delicate jewellery kept the look polished and simple, but Swift added a bit of visual interest with her hair: her sleek ponytail got a playful upgrade with two tiny fishtail braids. While Swift’s signature red lip was swapped out for a neutral shade, smouldering cat-eye makeup provided drama. All in, Swift delivered an A+ look for her TIFF red carpet debut.

We’re only four days into TIFF 2013 and it’s already been been A-list filled. Though the weekend presented us with some rain, it definitely did not stop the style stars from showing off amazing looks including two leading ladies, Keira Knightley and Olivia Wilde, who both showed support for It Brit designer Mary Katrantzou.

We’ve already ogled over Keira Knightley’s effortless beauty (here are 17 photos to prove it!), but we can’t pass up the chance to go into more detail of that beautiful red carpet look. While last year the British actress channeled a more dramatic look, it was refreshing to see Knightley gracing the red carpet this year in something colourful. Reminding us of the nostalgic spring days at Saturday night’s premiere of Can A Song Save Your Life?, Knightley opted for a whimsically printed strapless dress by Mary Katrantzou, featuring a strapless bustier and a voluminous skirt that grazed past her knees. Allowing her dress to get the full attention (as it should), she completed her outfit with a pair of nude/pink ankle strap suede heels by Christian Louboutin. As the quintessential English rose, she finished off her look with subtle but deep purple eyeshadow, nude lips and a chic chignon with her tousled bangs that delicately framed her face.

Perennial red-carpet queen Reese Witherspoon let her hair down last night, as the actress chose a more quirky get-up than usual for the TIFF 2013 premiere of Devil’s Knot. The black and white botanical-print dress from Jason Wu’s Resort 2014 collection was a welcome change from her typically solid, structured red carpet looks. Complete with crisscross detailing, a plunging neckline, and accessorizing with fun green Jimmy Choo heels and Tiffany & Co. jewels, Witherspoon’s well-put together look had us so enraptured we (almost) forgot about her less than stellar headlines earlier this year.

Are we seeing triple or was that the entire Hemsworth family on the Rush red carpet last night at TIFF? Star Chris Hemsworth was joined by his actor brothers Luke Hemsworth and Miley’s on-again-off-again fiancé Liam Hemsworth (whose scruffy beard has us thoroughly divided). While Chris wore a three-piece Gucci checked suit and deep burgundy tie, his brothers took care not to show him up in simpler grey looks. Also present, was the Rush star’s wife Elsa Pataky who was looking super haute in a white embellished Elie Saab Fall 2013 gown.

Get ready, because we’re going to be seeing a lot of Sandra Bullock this award season. Last night’s TIFF premiere of Gravity continued to feed the Oscar buzz that started in Venice—and Bullock looked positively award-winning on the red carpet. Wearing a sleek, strapless Narciso Rodriguez dress from the Fall 2013 collection, the actress took her time on the red carpet, stopping to sign autographs for excited fans with the animated grace and warmth she’s so well known for. Bullock’s teal, black and white dress was perfectly complemented with a pair of gold-capped Christian Louboutin shoes and minimalist jewellery—diamond studs and a single skinny bracelet, both by Martin Katz. Deep teal eyeliner and shadow continued the colour theme into Bullock’s makeup while a neutral lip and rosy cheeks kept the look refreshing and has us seriously is awe that she’s 49 years old.

George Clooney—Bullock’s Gravity co-star and red carpet pal—was unable to attend due to a scheduling conflict but there were two guests of honour on the TIFF red carpet that pretty much made up for his absence: ACTUAL ASTRONAUTS. Chris Hadfield and Roberta Bondar both walked the red carpet and stayed for the screening. Considering that those of us who have never even been to space break out in shivers when watching the trailer for Gravity, well, we just can’t imagine how an astronaut would deal. Space! Hadfield reviewed the film this morning via Twitter, and if a lauded space commander saying he’d fly with Sandra Bullock isn’t Oscar nomination fodder, we don’t know what is.

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.

Based on last night alone, we’d have to attest that it doesn’t get more beautiful than Keira Knightley. At the Can a Song Save Your Life premiere at TIFF 2013, the actress was 100% forest nymph in her strapless printed Mary Katrantzou dress. The Brit star paired the look with nude Christian Louboutin heels, an artfully disheveled bun and a deep purple smoky eye. Now that is what fairy-tales are made of, folks.

Also looking mighty fine was Maroon 5-er Adam Levine who, after a small role in American Horror Story, seems to be taking a dive into film. The singer wore a sharp, fitted navy suit with a white shirt and striped tie. Levine shared the red carpet with fellow cast member Shannon Maree Walsh who looked ravishing in a black lace gown.
