Ten Academy Awards Looks I Loved


I was more excited with the gowns of the celebrities than with the results in the recently concluded 83rd Academy Awards. I am sure everyone of you has a best dressed list. Here are the ten looks that I loved, in no particular order:

Nicole Kidman in Christian Dior

Hilary Swank in Gucci (I love her look for the first time)


Cate Blanchett in Givenchy Haute Couture

The detail at the back

Hailee Steinfeld in Marchesa

Celine Dion in Armani Prive

Helen Mirren in Vivienne Westwood

Mandy Moore in Monique Lhuiller

Mila Kunis in Elie Saab

Natalie Portman in Rodarte

Michelle Williams in Chanel

I did not include Anne Hathaway in the list because her eight looks will require another post.  Do you agree with my list?   Which among these ten looks don't you like?  Please share your list as well.  I'll be waiting for your comments.

    Favorites are Hailee Steinfeld, Mandy Moore, Mila Kunis, Natalie Portman and Michelle Williams (who looks like Twiggy :))

    The I in Vivienne Westwood is missing, also the S in Michelle Williams. :)

    Looking forward to your post on Anne.

    I did not like Nicole Kidman's outfit.
    I also don't like how Mandy Moore's outfit blended w/ her complexion.
    Just my opinion.

    Dear Anonymous,
    Thanks for calling my attention. I think I need to wear glasses very soon. The post on Anne will be available very soon. Thanks for you support.

    My favorite of them all is Cate Blachett in Givenchy. It's not the most beautiful dress in the world, I would probably ignore it on hanger, but on her it looks smashing. THAT is how you wear a dress. YOU make the dress look beautiful, not the other way around. Next to the divine Ms. Blanchett, everyone just pales in comparison.

    I hated Nicole's dress, I'm sorry.

    Nicole Kidman - it's very seldom that I do not like what she wears, and this is one of them.
    same with Cate Blanchet. Both of them are tall that's why, I think, they carry gowns and dresses so well.
    Hilary Swank doesn't dissappoint.
    Dame Helen Mirren looks fab and elegant
    Hailee is gorgeous, her outfit suits her, not a girl anymore but not yet a woman.
    Mandy Moore in Lhuillier is blah

    Unfortunately, Nicole Kidman's dress reminds me of old table napkins. As for Natalie's Rodarte dress, the color was perfect but the style underwhelmed me given that everyone was raving about it beforehand. Sabi nga ni DR on Twitter, she's expecting an award, sana umeffort lang more than that.
