With all this Oscar fashion buzz and grading of celebrity dresses, I simply had to have my own say – at least about the outfits that evoked strong emotions. Thus I sorted Hollywood gals into three categories: those who nailed it, those who failed it, and those kinda hanging in the middle…
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!
Natalie Portman in Rodarte
Apart from simply glowing the way only a beautiful future mom can, Natalie also picked a simply perfect dress to match both the occasion and her newly shaped figure. Bravo!
Jennifer Lawrence in Calvin Klein Collection
This Hollywood newcomer absolutely nailed it at her first Oscars red carpet. A simple but totally flattering cut plus great color - she easily beat all the big stars that opted for red that night.
Mila once again proved she's one of the sexiest youngsters in Hollywood today. Judging from her other recent red carpet appearances she knows how to pick a perfect dress and how to rock it. Just look at her - she's a vision!
Although I'm not sure about this very architectural cleavage cutout, she's quite adorable in this. The metallic glow and color that suits her so well play the main part.
This Givenchy creation is a complex work of art, and it certainly takes the right lady to pull that off, someone like ... Cate. Some other lady could look just weird in this but she's a real stunner!
I love this deep blue, which is also perfect for natural redheads like Amy and the shimmer adds it the necessary glamour. I'm not crazy about the high neck though, as well as that giant jewel. It would have been much better strapless!
I love Florence because she's great musician, because she's a bold redhead and because she manages to stay true to her vintage style, while staying true to the red carpet demands. In this champagne-coloured frock she looks dreamy and light as feather!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Apparently that's what happens when you're hosting the ceremony and there is all that pressure to blow everyone away with your first appearance... In the end you just freak - and turn up looking like this. It seems like Anne wrapped the piece of fabric around herself at last minute, and as result her breasts look flattened, her waistline is all wrinkles and the bottom part is like a crumpled bright-red plastic bag. And speaking of red - this shade is just wrong for her.
Ok, this is a way bigger disaster than Anne's, since it looks out of place and out of fashion. All those layers and cuts are so totally wrong, I don't even know how to explain this!
Scarlett Johansson in Dolce & Gabbana
I do like the general idea of it, but it still somehow comes out not good. Why? Maybe because magenta's wrong for her, the pencil-shape doesn't flatter her figure and her hair is too lackluster for the occasion?
I'm sorry, but this is just boring. Maybe it also has to do with her expression and haircut (which I hate for some reason), but even though the dress is see-through, she doesn't look sexy or seductive at all. Just dull.
I know some critics loved it, can't really support them. Maybe it's the hair, maybe the shade of red (as with Anne) that's just slightly wrong, maybe the bodice top that is strange and uncomplimentary. Sorry, doesn't work for me at all.
