Oscar Dresses...Here we go!

[bluestarfish18]

So far I'm loving Zoe Saldana's crazy purple fluff of a dress, Anna Kendrick's, and Penelope Cruz's.

And Keanu Reeves, Ryan Reynolds & Sam Worthington on the same carpet?! I can die happy now!

It's raining at my house, but it appears that the sun is out up there. I hope they stay dry! But I'm glad we're getting the rain here.

Cameron Diaz- very pretty

Sarah- Jessica, why? WHY?

Sarah- Jessica, why? WHY?

Ok, I'm not watching TV but I had to google it....already found a pic here:

You are totally right.....why? WHY????

[Ceepa]

Just cycled through some Oscar photos online. Cameron Diaz looked great.

There were a lot of severely structured dresses that made me think, wha?"

I do love the trend toward softer colors though. The floral/abstract prints? Not so much.

Oh, and Clooney looked tired.

[mom2binsd]

Sandra Bullock looked lovely in her gold dress...hopefully the color will bring her the golden oscar statue!

Miley Cyrus needs a posture coach. She is so slouchy. I didn't like her dress but I really didn't like her in the dress.

Maggie Gylenhal (sp?)- her lipstick was a hideous shade of fuchsia.

This picture of J Lo literally looks like her dress is made from bubble-wrap: http://justjared.buzznet.com/photo-gallery/2432833/jennifer-lopez-oscars-2010-red-carpet-05/

That gross rounded cut at the bottom reminds me of those fabric drapes they hang in service elevators. Yuck.

[Melaine]

The only one I've seen so far that I like is Sandra Bullock.

[TwinFoxes]

I think it's the Berkeley girl in me, I liked Maggie G's tie dye-ish dress. They're making fun of her on TMZ.

Elektra will fit right in sans necklace. The only necklaces that stood out were Helen Mirren's and Kate Winslet... Maybe they didn't get the memo in England?

[Melaine]

Oh I really like Anna Kendrick's dress: http://justjared.buzznet.com/photo-gallery/2432685/anna-kendrick-2010-oscars-04/

[Melaine]

Finally found a pic of Cameron Diaz....GORGEOUS!

[ourbabygirl]

Oooh... her dress and hair are so pretty!

[MMMommy]

I think Kate Winslet looks really good, and her hair is gorgeous!

Also looking good:

Cameron Diaz (better than in past years)
Demi Moore

Didn't like Vera Farmiga's dress. I think she is very pretty, but didn't like her dress.

[ChunkyNicksChunkyMom]

Someone please tell me was George Clooney really peeved at something?? Kate was throwing a fit and I could not hear what was going on. Also does Meryl have a curler stuck on her hair?? Sandra Bullock and Kate Winslet look most fabulous!!!

[lchang25000]

Almost everyone looks stunning! My fav part of the Oscars is to see everyone's outfit/hair/makeup.

[elektra]

Penelope looks beautiful. Regular in a beautiful way. More to come!

[funda62]

Thanks for letting me live vicariously! I love watching the Oscar red carpet and haven't been able to in years. Sigh, seeing the photos is great though and reading all your comments is awesome. So do tell more about Clooney!

He's been a stiffly stifferson the entire time. Seriously, he hasn't smiled at all. Steve & Alec popped a Toyota joke and the camera flashed to George....pissed! Then they made another joke about his nominated category...even madder! I thought flames were going to come out of his eyes and the hosts were going to spontaneously comust.

[mom2binsd]

I was wondering the same thing about George...still looking hot though!

[SnuggleBuggles]

Molly Ringwald. Not a fan of those accessories. Dress is eh but made worse by those decorative touches.

Beth

[Twoboos]

LOVED Demi Moore - I just thought she looked off the charts.

Sandra is lovely. Cameron looked great. Loved the color of Penelope's dress. Vera's dress was way over-ruffled. And who told Molly Ringwald that dress looked good? sheesh.

DD1 gasped out loud and declared JLo had the most beautiful dress ever. Apparently bubble wrap appeals to the 6-n-under set!

[jenfromnj]

I agree about SJP--the dress seemed like it had potential to be gorgeous, but it was sort of just hanging off her. And her hair looked like a hot mess when she was shown during the awards.

Also, Charlize Theron--what is with the huge satin flowers on her chest?
http://www.nj.com/oscar-awards/index.ssf/2010/03/oscar_red_carpet_go_big_or_go_home_go_home_charliz e_theron.html

So far Sandra Bullock and Elizabeth Banks have been my faves.

[SnuggleBuggles]

Agree about Demi. Love it. Agree about SJP especially her hair! Yikes! Thought the same thing about Charlize Theron's boob flowers.

Beth

[MolieMuts]

I have only been watching the last 15 minutes or so...

Demi Moore looked great
Sandra Bullock's dress is gorgeous

And, off topic, but I love James Taylor!

[lchang25000]

I agree...SJP's hair looked all fuzzy and wild when she was presenting the award. Her dress was unique, but didn't flatter her figure.

[bubbaray]

Fave dresses: Sandra Bullock, Penelope Cruz (OMG, that color!) and Cameron Diaz. I also liked Queen Latifah's dress.

ICK dress: SJP. What was she thinking?!

[MamaMolly]

So far I'm loving Zoe Saldana's crazy purple fluff of a dress,

My mom thinks it looks like she is wearing it backwards! :rotflmao:

I love the color of Charleze's dress but the boobie flowers look like lavender cinnabons! Demi's dress is lovely, as was Queen Latifa's IMO.

[janeybwild]

Sarah- Jessica, why? WHY?

Mu DH asked why she was wearing a bag. Oy.

[MamaMolly]

ICK dress: SJP. What was she thinking?!

Maybe that a floor length satin lemon yellow Channel grocery sack would be stunning? I don't get it either.

[MelissaTC]

My favorite two are Sandra Bullock and Kate Winslet. They both look gorgeous!!

I think Cameron Diaz looks great too but I am not liking her hair.

[jenfromnj]

I love the color of Charleze's dress but the boobie flowers look like lavender cinnabons!

MamaMolly, now I am dying for a Cinnabon and it's all your fault, LOL!

I was just reading in one of the fashion blogs that SJP's dress looks much better in person than on camera--OK, but didn't anyone consider that she'd be wearing it to the Oscars, where she was going to, you know, be on TV?

[jgenie]

Sandra Bullock looked absolutely gorgeous - I don't remember thinking she was especially attractive before but she outdid herself tonight. I also really liked the dress George Clooney's girlfriend is wearing.

[zag95]

I usually think Charlize Theron looks gorgeous- but those rosettes on the boobies...... i didn't need that image. Also agree with PP on Miley Cyrus- she was totally slouching.....I thought some of the older ladies looked really classy-
Helen Mirren
Meryl Streep
Sigourney Weaver

Hard to believe they are all over 60!!!

[arivecchi]

Loved Vera Farmiga's dress. Only a statuesque woman like her could pull that off. Loved Sandra Bullock. She glistened! The whole look was perfection. Liked Cameron Diaz, but she is so gorgeous, it is hard for her to go wrong. SJP's dress was strange, but I liked it. I admire that she always takes the more daring fashionista choices.

[lchang25000]

I think Cameron Diaz looks great too but I am not liking her hair.

I thought she looked gorgeous and I LOVED her hair.

[arivecchi]

Lovely, just lovely!

[TwinFoxes]

You know who needs a shout out? Kathryn Bigelow...the 58 year old Kathryn Bigelow! I was shocked when I read how old she is! She looks at least 10 years younger! Well done KB! :applause:

[arivecchi]

Wow

[wendibird22]

I agree SJP looked horrible. And for the first time I thought her face was starting to show her age.

Anyone else have a problem with a 17yr old Miley wearing a bustier? Call me prude but I think she's too young for that. I'd be ok with strapless but not a bustier.

[jse107]

IMHO--
I think she's a tart. Not a bit classy. And what's the deal with her mom's tatoos? A bit too much for Oscar night. MTV music awards, okay. Oscars, not so much.

[slworld]

Sandra's dress was really pretty but I thought the shade of lip color was totally off. Did anyone else think so?
Maggie Gyllenhaal pulled off that print dress beautifully.
SJP - her hair style i thought was nice but there was something wrong/weird about the dress (& did she put in colored contacts or her eyes really that shade of grey/blue?)
Vera Farmiga looked like the character from that animated salsa ad (tostitos?)
Whats up with that frill/decoration on Charlize Theron's dress?

[Andi98989]

I've heard Queen Latifah looked really good; finally found a picture. Beautiful!

http://justjared.buzznet.com/photo-gallery/2432982/queen-latifah-2010-oscars-02/

I hope that the person caught in the background of that picture looked better in person than in this picture! That is a funky look, otherwise.

[mommy111]

Loved:
Cam Diaz
Penelope Cruz
Bullock
Clooney's girlfriend in the pink dress
Demi Moore rocked that dress and Kate Winslet looked good although I'm getting a little tired of her perpetual stiff looking dresses.

[Twoboos]

I forgot about Queen Latifa, I thought she looked fantastic.

I also forgot that McCaulley Culkin (sp?) scared me. He looks not so good.

Agreeing with some other comments -

And whoever said SJP is showing her age - I thought the same thing. And that hair - yikes.

And Miley needing a posture coach - no kidding, even DH commented on the fact that she was so slouchy.

[funda62]

Yes and it made her look 30. Terrible. I think she's dressing this way to get more "mature" rolls. Makes me sad that she can't just enjoy being a kid.

[MMMommy]

George Clooney looked grumpy and annoyed was just a gag. He was in on it with the hosts.

[AnnieW625]

Alrighty, I finally watched the red carpet show last night (thank goodness for the DVR:)).

Faves:
Anna Kendrick (probably my favorite dress)
Tina Fey (close second)
Maggie Gyllenhaal
Penelope Cruz
Kate Winslet (a little stiff, but beautiful color!)
Cameron Diaz
Sandra Bullock
Rachel McAdams
Robert Downey Jr's wife

Didn't like at all:
Meryl Streep (get away from the Mother of the Bride dresses!)
Vera Fermiga
Sarah Jessica Parker (lay off the self tanner, cigarettes, and eat a darn muffin!)
Miley Cyrus
Zoe Saldana (not much into frilly layers)

[wendibird22]

I agree about SJP--the dress seemed like it had potential to be gorgeous, but it was sort of just hanging off her. And her hair looked like a hot mess when she was shown during the awards.

Hadn't noticed that at the time but just saw the Oprah special and they had a clip of SJP being interviewed on the red carpet and her hair looked like she'd just came out of a wind tunnel.
