Trendspotting: white on the red carpet

When the going gets hot, the celebrities wear white. White has been coming out in droves on the red carpet recently, with everyone from Jessica Biel to Sophia Bush taking a crack at their favorite takes on the trend. Here's the breakdown.

Jessica Biel chose a lace dress with accompanying shawl by Elie Saab for one of her premieres of the new Total Recall.

At another premiere of the same movie, Sophia Bush went for black leather leggings and a white tuxedo jacket--very menswear-inspired and a different look for the actress, who usually chooses girly pieces.

At the TCA Summer Tour, 90210's Jessica Lowndes looked almost ethereal in a floaty frock by Pamela Rolland, which she gave a bit of edge with Casadei turquoise heels.

And Taraji P. Henson rocked a form-fitting white dress by Gomez-Gracia at the TCA Summer Tour, too! We're loving her ankle-strap heels by McQ Alexander McQueen.
