Strapless gowns with long trains were favored by a lot of celebrities that impressed. A lot of stars chose to make their sartorial statements sans adornments. Necklaces, for example, appeared conspicuous by their absence. Similarly, hair styling was subdued.

Here is a pick of the best dressed during the event compiled by our fashion editor.

Christina Applegate dazzles at 14th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards

Christina Applegate dazzled in her Elie Saab silver sequined gown at the 14th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards, The Shrine Auditorium, Los Angeles, January 27.

The sleeveless old Hollywood style train dress had a deep V-neckline and wide inset Empire waist ending in a layered floor gazing scalloped hem.

Talking about her dress Applegate said, "I'm like a baby with shiny things! It's beautiful and it swishes on the bottom."

The gorgeous dress draped so well on her that it took away attention from her light colored eye makeup that did not go well with her light colored dress. Her red lipstick was, however, the right match.

She wore beautiful Neil Lane diamond earrings and a pearl bracelet.

In a recent interview with Redbook magazine for its February issue Christina, 36, who was married to longtime boyfriend and actor Johnathon Schaech from 2001 to 2005, said she wants to have kids and doesn't mind doing it on her own.

"I want to have that experience in this lifetime, of raising a human being and watching them grow and move on a become an adult... If I end up doing it on my own, I don't see anything wrong with that."

She continues to be friends with Johnathon.

"We saw each other [at Les Deux Cafe], we're friends, and I adore him - he's a great person. We just talked and hung out for a little while and that was the end of it."
