Oscar Fashion Wrap-up!

Oscar Sunday is referred to as Super Bowl Sunday around my house.  I literally start watching the red carpet coverage around noon and watch all the way to the end of the show.  It's an all day affair and one of my favorite TV days of the year.  I wish I could say it was to see who wins the awards but it's all about fashion! Couture gowns, diamonds, one of a kind shoes, embellished handbags...I love it all.  And, this year it was on different.

The best dressed of the night was Jessica Chastain in Armani Prive.  She looked absolutely stunning and really channeled "Old Hollywood Glamor".  She's a paled skinned woman but shockingly the nude color dress did not drain her.  The trick is that it was a darker nude - almost bronze - so it provided a contrast.  She kept her jewelry simple so the dress could be the star and added a perfect red lip to really complete the look.  Absolute perfection from head to toe!

Another star to make the best dressed list is Jennifer Lawrence in Dior Haute Couture.  This was really no surprise since she is the new face of the Dior label.  Everyone was expecting her to wear this exact dress but I love how her stylist put it together.  She was wearing a total of 74 carats of diamonds on her earrings and necklace.  The Chopard diamond necklace draped in the back instead of the front was fabulous and her hair and makeup were perfect.

 

Also, on my best dressed list are Naomi Watts in Armani Prive, Zoe Saldana in Alexis Malbine Couture, and Sandra Bullock in Elie Saab.  All three looked like true movie stars and choose dresses that were a little risky but totally paid off.

Other starlets that looked great but didn't make the top five were Jennifer Gardner in Gucci, Halle Berry in Versace, and Kerri Washington in Mui Mui. 

 Now for the worst dressed...the part everyone loves.  I am seriously shocked at my worst dressed....Anne Hathaway - I absolutely love her and she made the best dressed at the Globes.  But, she totally failed at the Oscars.  She actually admitted to Ryan Seacrest that she picked the Prada gown only 3 hours before the show - and it shows.  It was ill-fitting, showing her side-boobs and nipples.  Then, she paired it with a Tiffany's necklace that was all wrong with that neckline.  The pale pink of the dress totally washed out her skin color and was overall just a mess.  So sad since she was one of the belles of the balls winning the Oscar.  Anne is usually styled by Rachel Zoe and looks great.  But, it looks like Rachel spent more time on Jennifer Lawrence and Anne might want to rethink her stylist for the next red carpet!

Also on the worse dressed list are Kristen Stewart in Reem Acra and Amanda Seyfried in Alexander McQueen.  Kristen just looks like a hot-mess and needs to fire her hair stylist.  And can someone please teach this girl how to stand up straight! Sadly, I choose Amanda's McQueen dress on my wish list for the Oscars, but she changed the color from black/gold to nude.  It totally washed her out, was ill-fitting at the neck and her hair and makeup made her look 10 years older than she really is.  Come on ladies, get with it!

Hollywood's most glamous night did not disappoint and I'm already looking forward to next year!
