 Giving a 40''s look, Hillary Swank made the Oscar''s simmering fashion statement, wearing bare back sapphire-blue gown with long sleeves and a high neck designed by Guy Laroche.
“I knew that it would be a little chilly out today,” said Swank outside the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood. She added: “I thought it was really beautiful.”
Her makeup artist Scott Andrew said, “She looked very ''40s glamour — old-time Hollywood.” Maintaining her simple looks, Andrew had Swank up with mauve eye shadow, dark plum eyeliner and lots of mascara.
Talk show hostesses and media darling Oprah Winfrey was stunning and looked slim wearing a Vera Wang creation - a gold hand-embroidered off-the-shoulder gown with a tiered skirt. She let her hair down curling in all glory.
Boyfriend Leonardo DiCaprio walked hand in hand with Gisele Bundchen who wore a white strapless gown with gold embroidery and an empire waist.
Among several others stars was Gwyneth Paltrow in a Stella McCartney designed corset dress in nude silk and cotton voile carrying a natural and a soft look.
Laura Linney sauntered around in a funky taupe strapless gown by J. Mendel with diagonal exposed seams, a frayed edge at the top and at the hem. She topped it with a rope of pearls, holding a disc that curled around her neck.
Linney explained: “You put them (dresses) on and you sort of know. It''s profoundly comfortable.”
Comfort was another popular theme. Natalie Portman (seemed to revisit her role in "Star Wars" with a toga-like Lanvin) with her tulle gathered gown with a deep V and pearl-adorned double waistbands was “really classic, elegant — and it''s comfortable.”
Penelope Cruz said she admired the work of Oscar de la Renta, the designer of her yellow strapless gown with an oversized bow at the back hem. “It''s beautiful and comfortable.”
Renee Zellweger again looked to designer Carolina Herrera. She wore a raspberry strapless gown with ivory tulle trim. Sandra Oh, also in red, looked glamorous in a Michael Kors ballgown.
Melanie Griffith said husband Antonio Banderas had the final word on her ombre celadon pleated silk chiffon gown with embroidery by Versacethat she accessorized with long diamond drop earrings by Harry Winston.
Blue and yellow were both popular colors. Kate Winslet wore a periwinkle gown by Badgley Mischka with a beaded inset down the front of the bodice and Neil Lane diamonds added straps. Salma Hayek said on E! that Prada “did such a good job” on her custom-made midnight blue dress with black beading and bows on the bodice.
Cate Blanchett said picking her one-shoulder pale yellow silk taffeta gown with train and satin burgundy bow sash was easy. “Valentino made it for me. I just loved it,” she said.
Catalina Sandino Moreno, the best supporting actress nominee showed off ample decolletage surrounded by antique beading on her white Roberto Cavalli frock. Her diamond necklace was accented by a gumball-sized pearl resting like an "X-marks the spot" on the area of interest.
On the actors front, Johnny Depp showed up in a blue tuxedo with black lapels. His companion, Vanessa Paradis, wore a Chanellong black tulle dress with silver applique. Meanwhile, some male stars, including Spike Lee, wore white tuxedos with black shirts and ties.
In a sophisticated dark-blue on blue pinstriped suit and black tie, Jamie Foxx stood out displaying his best accessory, his 11-year-old daughter Corrine in a prim white dress complete with white gloves.
Several celebrities had personal fittings with designers and wore custom clothes. Giorgio Armani helped Clive Owen put on his suit. “It''s one of the highlights of this experience.”
Armani also did Annette Bening''s black jersey, long-sleeve gown with a portrait neckline from his new couture collection. The fitted bodice led into an hourglass silhouette, ending with a fishtail train.
Scarlett Johansson also chose black. She said she “felt like a princess” in her architectural Roland Mouret gown and Fred Leighton 19th-century diamond star tiara, but told Star Jones Reynolds on the red carpet that she could barely breathe.
Beyonce, who had several costume changes for the awards show, did the red carpet in a black silk velvet strapless gown by Versace.
Oscar.com fashion commentator Tom Julian said Beyonce, Hayek and Charlize Theron, who wore a strapless Dior seafoam gown with a skirt made of tiers of tulle, were among the best dressed.
Overall, Julian said, the look was sophisticated and simple with rich, luxurious fabrics making more of a statement than glitzy jewels. |
