InStyle lists their top ten Oscar dresses in anticipation of the big show on Sunday. While I agree with some, a few of the most memorable dresses for me over the years have been left out.
Julia Roberts in vintage Valentino, 2001
SJP in Christian Dior Haute Couture, 2009
Elizabeth Hurley in Versace, 1994
And of course, the most notorious dress...
Bjork in Marjan Pejosk, 2001
What are some of your most memorable Oscar dresses?

Your picks are some of my favorites too, esp Charlize Theron. : ) But then, I adore Vera Wang designs.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Charlize's dress and I thought Nicole's Dior was so interesting. I liked Gwyneth's dress at the time but not on her.
ReplyDeleteAnd I know a lot of people love that Michelle Williams dress. It was nice but not my fave.
When I was younger I remember loving Jennifer Lopez in Badgley Mischka and Salma in a lilac halter. I thought they were the height of chic at the time. I loved the black lace Valentino that Reece wore a few years back, too.
More recently I liked that nude Versace that Penelope wore.
Julia Roberts looks gorgeous in that dress!!
ReplyDeleteOhhh, I LOVE Michelle Williams Vera Wang!
ReplyDeleteLoved the first three and also SJP's. I swooned over Leslie Mann and Marissa Tomei's dresses last year!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Gwyneth Paltrow!!!!
ReplyDeletei love that yellow michelle williams dress! with the red lips, she looks so glam!
ReplyDeleteI love SJP's and Gwynnies. I don't blindly love the Michelle Williams one but I think it looks really, really good on her!
ReplyDeletethat yellow dress rocks my world....love it!
ReplyDeletehaha and remember she laid an egg on the red carpet!!!
ReplyDeleteI so agree with Gwen and Nicole! Classics
ReplyDeleteJulia Roberts' dress is an elegant classic and Michelle Williams' dress is amazing for being classically beautiful and colorful at the same time.
ReplyDeleteI loved Michelle Williams dress! I'm so excited to see what everyone wears on Sunday!
ReplyDeleteI love Gwen's. That dress will always be iconic for me. Can't wait to see what they wear this year!

ReplyDeletebig fan of michelle's yellow vera dress!! so gorgeous. bjork is so strange.. but i do appreciate her imagination!
ReplyDeleteI adored what Uma Thurman wore when she presented while pregnant- a two-piece, frothy white thing. So pretty! I also loved Halle Berry's sheer embroidered dress. And I think Nicole's is one of my favorites of all time.

ReplyDeleteHalle Berry's of course! It was so unique and special, loved the color and material.
ReplyDeleteGwyneth looked like Cinderella that year and I adore Michelle Williams' gown too!
I can't believe InStyle left some of these out! Michelle Williams and Charlize Theron's dresses in particular are 2 I'm obsessed with.
ReplyDeleteUgh, Michelle Williams in that dress... SO GORGEOUS!!
ReplyDeleteOh lordy...I remember that swan dress. Lol. My fave Oscar dress of all time was Julia Roberts' black and white vintage. So, so gorgeous and classy and sleek. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteHands down that michelle williams dress is my favorite of ALL TIME!
