We Grade All of Kristen Stewart’s Twilight Premiere Looks From 2008 to Present

Twilight first shot Kristen to mainstream fame in 2008, when she was but a shy, awkward 18-year-old. Now, with a high fashion fragrance deal and a mega scandal under her belt, there’s no doubt that K.Stew has certainly come into her own, both sartorially and otherwise.

So, we thought this was the perfect opportunity to take a look back on all of Kristen’s Twilight premiere looks from 2008 to 2012–and, um, grade them. Read on to see how she fared.

The 10 Best Movie Prom Dresses and How To Wear Them Today

For most of us, our earliest memories of Prom happened on the big screen. Movies like Pretty in Pink, Carrie and Never Been Kissed (depending on your age) all probably played at least a minor role in your expectations of the big night.

And while some of those expectations may have been a wee misguided (we’ve never heard of a high school simultaneously breaking out into perfectly choreographed dance routines, for instance…) there’s one area that the movies do offer some valid inspiration for: The wardrobes

From Bella Swan’s classy teal gown, to Romy and Michelle’s hilarious Desperately Seek Susan outfits, relive some of the movie’s best prom outfits–and how you can update them for today.

In Honor of Bella Swan Getting Hitched, Here Are Our 10 Most Favorite Movie Wedding Dresses

A knock-off of Bella Swan’s wedding dress (Twilight‘s heroine, in case you’ve been living under a rock for three years) just went on sale (at left) and it got us thinking about memorable movie wedding dresses. Forget about people’s princesses who wear too much eyeliner or wannabe princesses who get divorced after 72 days: Movies are where the real, unattainable, fantasy love-and-marriage happens. From the classic to the garish, we’ve rounded up some truly unforgettable wedding gowns from all different eras. Click through to see yards of tulle and lace and dreams and butterflies on gorgeous actresses. Sigh.

A Super Articulate Kellan Lutz Dishes that His Twilight Co-Star Robert Pattinson Is Designing His Own Line

Could Robert Pattinson be the next Karl Lagerfeld?

Probably not. But the famously-bedheaded-star may have plans to follow in his footsteps (without the whole diet-coke-only-diet, we hope). Apparently, after R.Patz heard fellow Twilight star Kellan Lutz was launching his own Venice-beach-influenced line, Abbot + Main, the tween heartthrob felt inspired.

That being said, we can conclusively say that no one needs any of the following items. From your pubes to your dog, these products and trends are completely ridiculous. (Of course, who ever thought people would be putting toxins into their faces to get rid of wrinkles?) Click through to check them out:
