Screen Actors Guild Awards 2014: Best dressed

The “American Hustle” star wore an electric blue Antonio Berardi gown with an asymmetrical bodice. I loved the contrast of the sharp edges with the soft curves of her body and rolled hair style.  (Allen J. Schaben / Los Angeles Times)

The “Boardwalk Empire” actress’ J. Mendel graphic white lace T-shirt gown with high slit was a study in casual chic and perfect for the balmy weather.   (Jordan Strauss / Associated Press)

Sarah Hyland’s strapless blush pink high-low Pamella Roland was sweet without being too girly.  (Allen J. Schaben / Los Angeles Times)

This Carolina Herrera burnt orange, brown and white color-blocked dress with a graphic black and white skirt is out-of-the-box all right (the collection was inspired by kinetic art). It has a lot going on, but somehow it works.  (Allen J. Schaben / Los Angeles Times)

Sequins but special: Lawrence was dazzling in a Dior column dress with multicolored sequins that seem to be lighted from within.  (Kevork Djansezian / Getty Images)

It’s not exactly the jaw-dropping moment she had at the Golden Globes, but it’s still pretty fabulous. What makes Nyong’o’s Gucci turquoise silk column stand out is the floral detail at the neckline. Who needs jewelry?  (Kirk McKoy / Los Angeles Times)

The blue tile-like embroidery on tulle makes this Vionnet gown incredibly artful.  (Kirk McKoy / Los Angeles Times)

Red dresses don’t get much better than this simple Michael Kors stunner with a beautifully draped bodice and black sash.  (Matt Sayles / Associated Press)

With slicked-back hair and red lips, Helen Mirren looks like the grande dame at the SAG awards. She is wearing a black Escada gown with sheer long sleeves and stunning gold brocade embroidery.   (Ethan Miller / Getty Images)

Lena Headey’s Jenny Packham-designed blue-and-peach stripe halter neck gown with tie front detail was effortless elegance at its best.  (Jordan Strauss / Associated Press)
