So many excited fans turned up to the Royal Premiere of the Hobbit on Thursday night gone. Many die-hard fans braved the cold to catch a glimpse of their favourite stars. The FashionThirst team's attention was taken by Australian Cate Blanchett who stars in this tale of an unexpected journey in to London. Cate sported a long-sleeved, plain column, high, turtle-necked white Givenchy gown with fitted waist, bell sleeves,  gold/metal shoulder rims and cuff accents.  Each time she turned around on the green carpet we viewed the graceful open back detail on the dress as well as the thigh-high side slits (no thermal undies spotted !). Cate carried a white matching Givenchy clutch bag and sandals. Her hair was done up in a simple chignon bun. Simple, graceful and futuristic in tandem. The elegant Aussie stole the limelight and wooed the crowds. All in all a great night with some dazzling celebs.

Look out for FashionThirst's up and coming feature articles - it's winter in Europe and we all book vacations to sunnier climes our next featured articles will be on bikini designs from Miami and of course for the party season we have 'On point trendy party dress of the month' .
