Footy, Frocks And FleshPlunging necklines, acres of flesh and backless frocks have all been hits on the red carpet as stars arrive for football’s night of nights. Early arrivals included Kevin Sheedy, who brought one of his daughters, and John Brumby, attending for the first time as Premier of Victoria. Melbourne-bound former West Coast captain Chris Judd was outshone by his girlfriend Rebecca Twigley, who stepped out in a gun-metal grey gown with embroidered bodice and elaborate purple jewelling. Eddie McGuire’s wife Carla also chose grey, arriving in a Toni Maticevski green/grey strapless floor-length dress with a black tulle overlay. The Collingwood president declined to discuss Collingwood’s meeting with Chris Judd and laughed as reporters tried to pin him down. Anthony Koutoufides hit the red carpet on the arm of his wife Susie, who wore a Grecian inspired ivory/cream floor-length gown which gathered in the middle with an embroidered waist. Adam McPhee’s girlfriend Bree Hatley caused a stir in her barely-there, backless black silk number with a plunging neckline and sequined strap that came to rest just above her right buttock. Shane Crawford’s partner Olivia was less revealing in an orange and fuchsia floor-length gown that gathered with a scarf at the waist. Also a hit, James Hird and his wife Tania, relatively subdued in an icy pink, sequined and embroidered floor-length gown complete with train. Comedian and actor Stephen Curry wore a tuxedo, as did many of the men on the red carpet, and he was quick to point out his designer for the event. “I’m dressed by Ferrari formal wear,” the comedian told anyone who would listen.
