This year's event honoured fashion designer Tom Ford who was the star of the night, with both the man himself in attendance and an array of his designs worn by a long list A-list attendees.
But never mind the A-list attendees, the night — the proceeds from which will go toward scholarships for the academy's artists and funding for its programs — was all about "Bob".
InStyle, realizing that some of their A-list attendees had been borrowed by a Time Warner corporate sibling – "They've stolen our heat," the thinking suggested – hunted them down and brought them to the dinner they had actually been invited to.
Somewhat overlooked amongst the other major events, however in red carpet terms the SAG awards provide a prime opportunity for A-list attendees and their stylists to pull all the stops out with show-stopping gowns - an Oscars dress rehearsal if you will.

Until this year, the only option was inventing a time machine or another conference with the same panache, A-list attendees and editorial chops.
But when it came to the red carpet, most of the A-list attendees played it safe, opting for looks which echoed their usual style -- or that of their host designer -- instead of Kawakubo's.
While the world's best parties and curated events may receive press attention, sponsorship and A-list attendees, there has yet to be a modern solution to an age old problem for hosts - how to ensure seamless management, with controlled, non-transferrable, private invitations.
