Oscars 2008 - Best Dressed
The 80th Annual Academy Awards took place at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles and as usual, didn't fail to impress. The dominant colour was red this year and off-the-shoulder was the style favoured by the glamorous ladies of the red carpet.
Calista Flockhart was dressed by Rare Vintage in Vintage Valentino. This
ice-blue Grecian gown was my favourite for Oscars 2008. This simple yet
elegant goddess look was perfect. Even the hair followed the theme.
Hilary Swank was dressed by Versace. She remains impressive and have you
noticed how there aren't many bad photos of her on the red carpet? Has
she figured out the formula?
Katherine Heigl was dressed by Escada in a stunning red dress. This was
a simple gown but extremely flattering on her figure. Great choice!
Nicole Kidman was dressed by Balenciaga. The usually super-skinny Nicole
chose a looser-fitted dress this year as she is pregnant. It's very
simple but the neck piece changed the whole look and made it work.
Renée Zellweger was dressed by Carolina Herrera and therefore, got it
right once again. This look was classic Hollywood glamour and the colour
was great on her. She looked dazzling!
Marion Cotillard was dressed by Jean Paul Gaultier in a mermaid dress.
This can be a risky dress for an Oscar's night but she made it work and
she looked fabulous.
Cate Blanchett was dressed by Dries Van Noten. As she is heavily
pregnant, she may have tried a number of dresses to get the right look.
Fortunately, she chose the right one.
Kelly Preston was dressed by Roberto Cavalli. This marigold yellow dress
was eye catching and even though it was really simple, it was a
wonderful dress for a red carpet event.
