SO, lets talk about the most important part of the 90th Oscars / Academy Awards ceremony...the red carpet...duh!
|
Rita Moreno wore her Oscar Dress from 1962 |
I hate to admit it, but I've seen none of the movies nominated and none of them really strike my interest anyway- so obv after the red carpet show I was off to the Clippers game. You know what they say..."Get a girl that can do both"
Out of all the award shows (Golden Globes, SAG, and Grammy's) the stars definitely brought their A game to the Oscar red carpet...finally. Mind you, that's not to say there wasn't a few tragic pieces but definitely a lot less than any other award show this year. SO, lets break it down...

WHAT DO YOU THINK
|
From Left To Right:
Gina
Rodriguez in Zuhair Murad - cut off the sides and then we're talking
Alison Janney in custom Reem Acra- I love the dress, but that red clutch makes it just to much red
Zoey Deutch in archival Elie Saab gown - the color just does not work for her, and the straps should have been skinnier
Nicole Kidman in Armani Prive - this dress is stunning, just not on her
Salma Hayek in Gucci - Just because it's Gucci doesn't make it an automatically best dressed - thanks for clearing that up
|
BRINGING SEXY BACK
In a good way (minus Patrisse Cullors) - warning here comes the political statement - don't wear sexy dresses and then say oh "me too"
|
From Left to Right:
Blanca Blanco in Atria Couture- if you got it flaunt it! Do your thing girl (shout out to you for wearing a red dress at the Golden Globes)
Taraji P. Henson in custom Alberta Ferretti- she had a nipplegate while presenting - but she killed it so who cares
Patrisse Cullors- ok so your boobs are hanging out, but you are wearing a "times up" pin...uh ok?
|
TRAGIC
|
From Left to Right:
Whoopi Goldberg in Christian Siriano- I think someone threw up flowers on her dress (I would to if I watched the View) - this is even more sad as I LOVE Christian Siriano dresses usually
Phoebe Waller- Bridge in Vionnet- this dress washes her out and the polka dots just make it look cheap.
Maya Rudolph in Valentino - did Nuns get a makeover and are now wear red?
Beanie Feldstein in Sachin & Babi Ahluwalia - clearly didn't get the memo that this is the Oscars not prom
|
|
From Left to Right:
Emma Stone in Louis Vuitton - To much silk, color blocking goes wrong, why is there a random pink bow?
Haley Bennett in Dior - where did she pick all that grass from? go put it back!
Lindsay Vonn in Jeff Kim- and just like all her ski accidents, Kim was forced to cut off the sleeves due to wardrobe malfunction - I think she is the definition of bad luck.
St Vincent in Saint Laurent- did she forget the pack of pigeons she flew into the Oscars with?
|
SEQUIN TRAGEDY
|
From Left to Right:
Jennifer Lawrence in Dior - the dress is to heavy, would have been nicer if it was tighter
Lupita N'yongo in Versace - after killing it in purple Versace at the Black Panther Premiere this dress is just a bit extra (even for the Oscars)
Sally Hawkins in Armani Prive- this is what you wear when you are nominated for best actress...UM NO!
Sandra Bullock in Louis Vuitton- Asia meets wedding table cloth
|
PLAYED IT SAFE
Still stunning though - minus Meryl Streep (ugh)
|
From Left to Right:
Jennifer Garner in Atelier Versace- Classy but a bit safe - why is she even there?
Sophia Carson- Oscar red, Oscar Safe, Oscar trying to hard
Zendaya in Giambattista Valli- I'm obsessed with Valli's dresses, but I think she could have spiced it up a bit
Meryl Streep in Dior- I mean she always wears the same thing, so over her
