The Logies red carpet winners

The Logies red carpet continues to be a delightful car crash of old-school taffeta glamour, attention-seeking ensembles and local labels. Here are the celebrities that survived relatively unscathed before the ceremony at The Star in Sydney on Sunday.

Gold Logie nominee and MasterChef Australia judge Poh Ling Yeow took inspiration for her corseted dress with a voluminous olive green drop waist skirt from the Paris runways.

The dramatic gown is by leading Sydney couturier Nicky Apostolopoulos, the creative force behind Velani.

“We played around with silhouettes, but Poh definitely wanted the corsetry,” Apostolopoulos says. “She wanted to be snatched.”

Apostolopoulos used vintage gold lace for the corset, with a lace-up back, popularised on the runway at US designer Daniel Roseberry’s shows for Schiaparelli at Paris Fashion Week.

Kylah Day, a nominee for the Graham Kennedy Award for most popular new talent, tapped her fashion knowledge as a former model to nab one of designer Mariam Seddiq’s most striking looks from her Australian Fashion Week show in May.

Stylist Jess Pecoraro secured the gently ruched sheer gown from Seddiq’s atelier in Sydney for the star of the Netflix series Territory. Pecoraro didn’t have to look far for the dress, with her model sister Roberta having worn it for its runway debut.

Since her divisive foray into wearing Italian label Dolce & Gabbana for the 2022 Logies, with its strong lingerie influences, Lego Masters presenter Hamish Blake’s beauty entrepreneur wife, Zoë Foster Blake, has worn Alemais designs, but this year she gave an emerging designer time in the spotlight.

Foster Blake’s dress, featuring a skirt with pronounced pleats, is from Amy Lawrance, National Designer Award winner from this year’s Melbourne Fashion Festival.

Lawrance utilises the needlework technique faggoting, which is popular in lingerie, but unlike that Dolce & Gabbana dress in 2022, the result here is demure and delightful.

Ayesha Madon in Acne Studios

The stars of Heartbreak High can be counted on to deliver antidotes to the Logies’ traditional brand of glamour. While Chloe Hayden took an eclectic approach in a dreamy, bordering on nightmare Romance Was Born dress with florals, lace, sheer panelling and bows competing for attention, co-star Ayesha Madon was more streamlined.

Madon’s strapless check dress with an exaggerated neckline from Swedish brand Acne Studios added nerd chic to the evening’s proceedings.

“We are pushing a vibe and leaning into who she will be after Heartbreak High,” says stylist Tori Knowles.

It’s been 24 years since former Bardot singer and Love Island host Sophie Monk made her Logies debut in a charming beret and a sweet tie, but now she’s stiff competition for fellow red carpet veteran Sonia Kruger in the tight dress and tan department.

Monk chose a pure white Grecian dress with a plunging neckline, cinched at the waist with a matching corset. With perilously high white platform shoes, she’ll be steering clear of any stray negronis inside The Star.
