Parties! The style, stars and scoop from Hollywood's hottest events

Giorgio Armani invited an astronomical guest-list to Harold Lloyd’s old Hollywood estate for a pre-Oscar fashion show where the A-list front row caused almost as much excitement as the couture on display. “This is so fun!” said Katie Holmes as she arrived at the Armani bash. After greeting friend Penélope Cruz, Holmes led her mother-in-law into the tent to get a second glimpse at Armani's creations—earlier this month Katie was on the front row at the unveiling of the chic Privé line in Paris.
