I'm going to go with the obvious - Natalie Portman (http://www.cnn.com/2011/SHOWBIZ/Movies/02/27/gallery.red.carpet/index.html?hpt=T1).



Yours?

It was a tie between Halle Berry

and Mandy Moore (whom I'm not even sure why she was there until I just now googled it)

Both of them looked stunning and their dresses were gorgeous.

I loved Gywneth Paltrow's dress, though the pictures don't really do justice to the movement and sheen of it:

I also thought Jennifer Hudson looked fabulous, she's my WW inspiration ;):

Colin Firth also looked great, IMO.

Gwyneth Paltrow and I don't even like modern minimalist, normally.

I didn't watch (except I did catch Mellissa Leo drop the F-bomb :ROTFLMAO:) so I don't know if it's fair to vote since I am only going by the pictures you guys linked to, BUT my jaw dropped when I came across Jennifer Hudson's photo. She looked stunning, her dress was gorgeous and the color was perfect on her. I also liked Natalie Portman's gown, she looked amazing. I guess I am all about color and maybe it's because I didn't see them "in action" but even though I thought Mandy Moore and Halle Berry's dresses were beautiful, they didn't "pop" like the others to me.

I love red dresses so Sandra Bullock and Anne Hathaway on the red carpet for me.

Sandy: (if this doesn't go right to her she's #3)

I also liked Scarelet Johannson's, I think. Can't decide but I LOVED the color on her and Natalie Portman.

I really liked Hailee Steinfeld's dress...she was just so cute and her dress was beautiful. As for the older women there were a lot of pretty dresses...I really liked Cate Blanchett's dress...it was different but not ugly. Otherwise I liked a lot of the dresses but hers stood out.

Though many say she'll get ripped by the critics.

Ooh, you know who else looked fab? Helen Mirren. Wow... she is hot. I hope I look half that good when I"m 65.

Also Sharon Stone, who I think is a dingbat, looked gorgeous.

I liked Anne Hathaway on the red carpet, and although the hosting team of Hathaway and Franco left a lot to be desired, I liked most of the gowns she wore during the show-- I loved the cream colored one and the blue.

:yeahthat:

I <3 Helen Mirren.

Also LOVED Jennifer Hudson, Anne Hathaway & Natalie Portman.

Thought Cate looked gorgeous, but did not like her dress. (Described it as "weird" to DD.)

Wished Michele Williams had worn a color, not a neutral - it was lovely, but washed her out.

Liked Reese Witherspoon's dress, questioned the poufy ponytail, loved her jewelry.

Wasn't a fan of Scarlett's dress fabric, but loved the color on her (am partial to wine colored dresses myself) and tend to wish she'd wear something a smidge more youthful. She has wonderful taste, but it doesn't always suit her.

Found Mila Kunis's hair & makeup perfect, loved the color, did not "get" the dress. Was very, IDK, "wispy" & almost too much in the cleavage dep't. (Of course, having no boobs is a plus when wearing something like that!)

Did not see Marisa Tomei's entire dress, but thought I'd caught the back-view & questioned the wisdom of having hips & butt with an asymmetrical mermaid skirt ... I could be wrong, though. It might not have been her gown!

:yeahthat:
They were my two best dressed!
Mila looked amazing -- loved the lacy details -- and Cate Blanchett's dress was really unexpected and cool.

I liked Hailee Steinfeld a lot, because she looked classic, age appropriate and comfortable. I thought Anne Hathaway looked great in everything she wore.

I did like Jennifer Hudson's red dress, but couldn't get over the fact (on stage) her face make-up appeared to be a completely different color than her skin from the neck down. Just looked like she had a mask on or something.

I loved so many of the dresses this year. Hilary Swank, Jennifer Hudson, Natalie Portman, Halle Berry, Reese Witherspoon. Of course, I loved Jennifer Lawrence's Calvin Klein. I even liked Amy Adam's, but the necklace was just wrong on a sheath like that. The "best look" for me went to Matthew McC's date, Camila Alves. How utterly gorgeous - simple, sexy, stunning.

I love Reese's entire look. I was a little ambivalent about her hair, but she rocked it.

Loved Scarlett Johannssen's and Natalie Portman's dresses.

Another vote for Mila Kunis.
