What Celebs Should Wear From the Spring Runway

Sometimes when you’re clicking through runway galleries and there’s a particularly complicated top or bedazzled, body-hugging gown, you think wow, I can’t wait to see a celebrity try to walk down a red carpet in that. While stylists sitting at the shows have the power to make it happen, the Cut has the power of Photoshop — and we’re ready to make our biannual attempt at playing celebrity stylist.

While there are always some obvious designer-celeb pairings (spoiler: You will see Kristen Stewart in Balenciaga this year), one can always hope for a sartorial surprise attack. Click ahead to see our spring 2013 ready-to-wear red carpet wish list.

Solange Knowles in Suno Trends on trends: crop top, bold print, all very Solange.
Rihanna in Balmain Few people can balance so much leather with so much boob.

Emilia Clarke in Rodarte Why not embrace your inner Daenerys Targaryen on and off the Game of Thrones set?
Jennifer Lopez in Zuhair Murad If it's body-hugging and reminds everyone that you're completely naked underneath, J.Lo is going to wear it.
Cate Blanchett in Givenchy If someone is goign to pull off a dress over pants on the red carpet, it's going to be her.
Kristen Stewart in Balenciaga She would, of course, have the runway look shortened.
