"Over here at Glamour, we write about Diane Kruger pretty much on a regular basis. We can&amp;#x27;t help it because her inherently envelope-pushing and just-sexy-enough personal style just blows us away every.single.time. Her formal ballet training and early career as a high-fashion model explain her innate poise and big-time designer connections, but her sartorial skills just come naturally. So clearly, we need to crown Diane Kruger our Style Icon of the Week. And here&amp;#x27;s the fun part&amp;amp;#8212;let&amp;#x27;s scroll through her looks! No awkward ingenue photos to start, Diane&amp;#x27;s just always looked amazing. Here she is in 2002 at Cannes walking the red carpet for the Punch Drunk Love premiere. She&amp;#x27;s already confident enough to work a jewel-embellished Moroccan-style silk robe layered over an iridescent orange evening gown. Remember Diane&amp;#x27;s big Hollywood blockbuster debut as the most beautiful woman in the world (duh) in the movie Troy? She costarred alongside the now Hammer Pants-trend-setting Brad Pitt and Mr. Miranda Kerr, Orlando Bloom&amp;amp;#8212;and wore this spectacular feather-fringed Chanel Couture gown to the Cannes premiere. Heeeey, Orlando. ... In 2006, Diane hit another red carpet home run at the Academy Awards in this body-hugging and delicately-ruffled gold-and-cream Elie Saab gown. Flawless. During less formal occasions, the German-born actress keeps her fashion game stellar too. At this Longchamps party in 2008, she proved to be about five years ahead of the fashion game, wearing a straw hat, crop top, high-waisted pants, and a red clutch way before everyone else started. (Also, Diane Kruger fun fact: This is the year she started dating Pacey Joshua Jackson too. Wonder if he&amp;#x27;s still a casual date-night dresser...) By 2009, Diane had cemented her fashion cred and was racking up good movie roles, too&amp;amp;#8212;including the Oscar-nominated Inglourious Basterds, which came out that year. Here she is in a modern-silhouetted Chanel minidress to announce the nominees for the Golden Globes. And, of course, it&amp;#x27;s Chanel again because Diane and Karl Lagerfeld are pals. Speaking of designer pals, Diane has Jason Wu on her speed dial too. As a 2010 SAG Award nominee for her Inglourious Basterds role, Diane hit the red carpet in this beautiful mustard yellow gown by the designer. This is probably one of my top five favorite looks for the actress, and, trust me, as a person who went through hundreds of looks for this piece, that&amp;#x27;s REALLY hard to narrow down. I love how she styled it with simple jewelry and a bold red lip. Gorgeous. Why mess with a good thing? Diane opted for this bombshell peekaboo and high-slit gown by Jason Wu for the 2011 Met Gala honoring the Alexander McQueen exhibition. Diane is a known risk taker on and off the red carpet and effortlessly combines sophistication with lots of edge (and a sense of fun!). This Prabal Gurung gown is a perfect example&amp;amp;#8212;the sheer delicate ruffles soften the slate gray color of the dress, and the contrast trim halter and silver-plated belt add an architectural element to the light layers. The domino box clutch was an inspired extra touch. Again, Diane is ahead of the fashion game at the GQ Men of the Year Awards in 2012. She&amp;#x27;s rockin&amp;#x27; a cutout white gown by Cushnie et Ochs and Vanesso Bruno blazer as a cape. I do love her in cape-y things. Diane is never one to shy away from a colorful, eclectic print, so she opted for a mixed-media Mary Katrantzou cocktail frock for the Fox All Star party earlier this week. Now if this gorgeous visual isn&amp;#x27;t incentive enough for you to watch her new show, The Bridge (seriously, it&amp;#x27;s REALLY good), then I don&amp;#x27;t know what to tell you.
