Most talked-about dresses 2014

We see quite a few of them passing by here. Of course, the Amayzine editors study all international catwalks, scour the Net-a-Porters and MyTheresa’s of this world for you and red carpets are carefully examined and discussed. In short, thousands of dresses appear on our retinas each year, but only a few remain in conversation by the end of the year. These remarkable pieces certainly deserve a mention in our Top 5 Most talked-about dresses of 2014.

Rihanna surprised friend and foe by stepping onto the red carpet of the CFDA Awards in June in a completely sheer evening gown.

Everyone fell in love with 12 Years A Slave-actress Lupita Nyong’o in the baby blue Prada dress she wore to the Oscars. She won that Oscar that night and as far as we are concerned, also Best Dressed.

Although she is usually the most stylish of the K-clan, Kendall Jenner made her appearance at the MuchMusic Awards in Canada in a very daring dress with an ultra-high slit, causing everyone to worry whether the top model would catch a bladder infection that night.

For the performance of her life, Ilse DeLange the Danish-Dutch designer Claes Iversen chose to provide her with a fitting outfit. In a cream-white dress, she took the stage at the Eurovision Song Contest and the rest as they say is history.

We had to say goodbye to this master this year, but fortunately, we can include one of his beautiful creations in this list thanks to Sarah Jessica Parker, who attended this year's MET Gala in a fabulous dress by Oscar de la Renta .
