Darlings, there were so many damn awards shows in the last week that we couldn’t restrict ourselves to just one in making our picks for the showdown. If there’s a theme to this week’s cagematch, it’s ELEGANZA, as in, both entries are serving it in spades.

Tom’s Take: It’s romantic, fabulous and just a little sexy. The dress hugs her in all of the right places but never comes off like it’s restricting her in anyway. But really, I chose this one for being one of the best, most elegant walking-away dresses we’ve ever seen. I don’t think she’s ever looked this good on a red carpet – and she has a perfectly respectable style history.

Lorenzo’s Take: Siriano is in his glory when you give him a rising star who isn’t model-sized, especially if she’s got a taste for classic gowns. The color looks amazing on her, the style is total grande dame, and I love the jewelry she’s chosen. It’s her best look yet, in my opinion.

There you have it! Two opinionated queens! Two ladies werqing it! Which will remain standing when this is all over? Only YOU can make that call! Exclamation points!!!!!!
