The Oscars '09: Fashion Thread

[Rosebud]

This is the place to post pictures of celebrities at the Oscars and discuss the fashion. There is also a thread in Television (http://www.constantchatter.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1863338) to discuss the actual show and the winners & loser.

Please remember that you cannot post pictures that have copyrights on them (X17, WireImage, etc). However, you can post pictures from gossip sites (like JustJared). When in doubt, just post a link.

Enjoy! Hopefully we will see some gorgeous gowns tonight.

[pontmarie]

Loving Taraji's look!!! Underwhelmed by Anne Hathaway - again.
I feel like all I ever see SJP in is this exact type of dress.
Melissa Leo still looks like she's on The Young Riders - wonder if she said hi to Josh Brolin.
Bridget Fonda, that looks like my first Easy Sew dress project, ew!!!

[imagirliegirl]

I hate all of those dresses! What a bummer!!

And why are Miley and Hudgens there?

[thedoorchick]

Anne Hathaway looks like a mermaid.

I really like Amy Adams' dress, and the necklace is good as well, but I think it's maybe a little too big. It's just a tad overwhelming.

Beyonce...just...wow. She can do no wrong.

I like Miley Cyrus' dress but I think it's a little old for her.

[maryanne]

Miley is there b/c she did a song for the animated film Bolt.

[Adaya]

Seeing a lot of white this year.

[MsPeachy]

Kate Winslet's earrings are gorgeous! *drool*
(I saw a closeup during the opening act of the show)

[Rosebud]

Of all the white gowns (so many!) Penelope Cruz's is my favorite. It moves really beautifully.

[pontmarie]

Love Evan Rachel Wood's gown! She has been pretty impeccable this awards season.

[BerBer]

I wish Angelina would jazz things up a bit... girl must own 500 black dresses. I'd be nice to see her in something else for a change.

Loved Penelope's necklace... sparkly!

ohh... gotta go it's back on

[lbs27]

I'm watching SJP present, but I guess this counts as a fashion comment--where did her boobs come from? Their huge and if i recall correctly--she doesn't have much of a chest. I would love to know how she's getting this chest (if it's the dress, if it's implants, eh not so much. :p)

[imagirliegirl]

Evan looks pretty. She's my favorite.

[ivansbabe]

I saw some of the pre awards show coverage and most of these ladies looked so much better on tv than they do here which is a shame. The color seems off on a few especially. Amy Adams looked a lot better on screen as did Natalie Portman. Kate Winslet looks awesome again.

I completely agree...the colors on screen seemed somehow more vivid yet less harsh at the same time. And while Amy's necklace was a little overwhelming, the colors on screen so perfectly offset her eyes, I can see why she chose it.

[wendalah]

I'm not watching on TV, just checking out this thread now--and I actually like most of the dresses posted. This year seems like some of the women are taking chances...fun!

[ivansbabe]

^ That's a weird shot. I missed the first award...did all those women hand it out to Penelope?

[Rosebud]

^ That's a weird shot. I missed the first award...did all those women hand it out to Penelope?

Yes-- they're all previous Best Supporting Actress winners.

[wendalah]

I think my favorite so far is Evan Rachel Wood. Something about her white skin against that white dress...and it's a beautifully constructed dress.

[Rosebud]

[Chimichanga]

I know Sheryl Crow is a tiny lady, but that dress/angle makes her look wide/hippy.

[jesseybell]

I know I have said this before, but I am not a fan of the mermaid look - no matter your body type I just don't think it does anyone justice.

[j*east]

I'm watching SJP present, but I guess this counts as a fashion comment--where did her boobs come from? Their huge and if i recall correctly--she doesn't have much of a chest. I would love to know how she's getting this chest (if it's the dress, if it's implants, eh not so much. :p)

I'm guessing she's using cutlets. I don't think they're real. OTOH, her face looks really fake, so maybe she got implants, too?

[Smittenk]

Victoria Beckhams head looks photoshopped on her body--:eek:

[katmg]

I'm guessing she's using cutlets. I don't think they're real. OTOH, her face looks really fake, so maybe she got implants, too?

I wondered that too and even DH said, "WTH" when she walked out to present. I always liked SJP and it makes me kinda sad if she succumbed to getting implants at this point.

How tall is John Meyer? He looks like a giant!

[Kimberland30]

Philip Seymour Huffman....nice beanie with the tux.

Not.

[MsPeachy]

I'm really not a fan of all the "lift and separate" bodices.

[msnicolea]

Really only one complaint from last night: I hate mermaid dresses, regardless of a woman's shape.

My faves: Kate W., Natalie P., TP Henson--absolutely stunning, ER Wood--she might get the MVP award for overall awards season dress perfomance, and Heidi Klum

Least: Beyonce. Oh no. And I love Amy Adams and thought she looked beautiful--but I didn't like that necklace with that dress--just didn't work together for me.

This was the first time I was disappointed with the beautiful lead from Slumdog--I hated that sleeve--it just looked like a cheap add on. I've loved her all awards season--but this one did not work for me.

[Anna Low]

At least Tilda Swinton wore a tiny bit of make-up.

Wasn't terribly overwhelmed by anyone's dress - good or bad. Liked Marisa Tomei, Kate Winslet, Anne Hathaway and Jennifer Aniston. The rest were just....meh. Oh, except for Miley Cyrus and Jessica Biel, who fell squarely into the "poorly advised" category.

[sdianems]

Don't know her from a hole in the wall, and she is probably a lovely person, but Tilda Swinton has to be one of the oddest looking humans on the planet.....

[msnicolea]

I liked Miley this time--lovely, fun dress--and the belted waist is very on trend!

[msnicolea]

Oh--and a special nod to Marisa Tomei--best she's ever looked at the Oscars--or maybe at any awards show!

[PinkMartini]

Victoria Beckhams head looks photoshopped on her body--:eek:

It totally looks PS'd! I bet it is!

SJP really looks like she has implants in that dress! Anyone know of any other recent pictures of her?

[Lucy Van Pelt]

I thought Marisa Tomei's dress looked like an out of control origami project. I think her hair looked nice, but the dress was terrible.

[gardenmommy]

I loved Natalie Portman, Tarahj Henson, Marisa Tomei, and Alicia Keyes. And there were a few safe ones that were unmentionable.

But the list of bads far outweighted the goods. Reece was killing me, that blue monstrosity was terrible. Jessica Biel looked like she was draped in cheap bed sheets. I thought Miley looked good from the waist up, but looked like a flocked christmas tree from the waist down. Angelinas "lift and separate" was so "Barbie" to me. Sarah Jessica's new found cleavage was just vulgar to me. And Beyonce looked cheap, ill fitted and over the top as usual.

I could go on and on.

[Esq.]

Loved Marisa Tomei, Penelope Cruz, Amy Adams, and Nicole Kidman. I also loved that Jennifer Aniston wore only a braid in her hair.

Hated Jessica Biel, Beyonce, Maria Menuenos, Miley Cyrus.

[IrishEyes]

Liked: Taraji Henson, Anne Hathaway, ER Wood, Penelope Cruz, Freida Pinto, Natalie Portman, Amy Adams. I actually liked Meryl Streep, but maybe it's just because she's worn some eh things in the past.

Neutral: Kate Winslet (usually I love her), Angelina Jolie (maybe it would have been better if she looked happy to be there and not so tired?), Marisa Tomei (just a little too much going on)

Bad: Beyonce, Miley Cyrus (too much going on), Tilda Swinton, Sophia Loren

It's funny that after a couple of years of jewel shades, this year there were so many white/creams and greys.

I love me some Hugh Jackman, who was great, but they went a little overboard on the fake tan.

[Anna Low]

I loved Natalie Portman, Tarahj Henson, Marisa Tomei, and Alicia Keyes. And there were a few safe ones that were unmentionable.




Oh, totally forgot Natalie and Alicia. Natalie looked great. I usually find Alicia to dress in a most super-fug way, but she looked absolutely wonderful last night. Perhaps she actually hired a stylist.

Beyonce is so lovely, but she does much better style-wise when she wears real designer wear and not that stuff her mother creates.

[BusyBee21]

Loved Kate Winslet. I adore her! And Marisa Tomei and Penelope Cruz looked great, too. Meryl Streep looked perfect for her age. Sophia Loren was really icky. She should have let herself age gracefully, not artificially. And I usually love everything Reese wears, but she looked awful last night. I actually felt sorry for her. :(

[bellaprincess]

Philip Seymour Huffman....nice beanie with the tux.

Not.
Lol, ha ha! I thought the same about that beanie!

[ktsb]

Thanks as usual Rosebud. Knew I could come here and get the scoop.

I thought this year's fashions were not all that great. My fav was Kate in terms of overall look.

[bellaprincess]

Debra Messing's dress is so beautiful and I love her earrings!

I also loved Tina Fey's dress and Christina Applegate's dress as well.

The best earrings of the night were the one's Kate Winslet was wearing!

Ryan Phillipe's girlfriend, Abbie Cornish, is beautiful.

[Sposa06]

Loved: Kate Winslet, Natalie Portman, Anne Hathaway, Penelope Cruz, Taraji P. Henson, Tina Fey, Diane Lane, Angelina Jolie, Marisa Tomei, Alicia Keys.

Almost: I wish Amy Adams' dress had been black, gray or navy--the red was beautiful but it was too much with that necklace and her hair. And without the white flowers (they looked too much like tissues), I'd have loved Vanessa Hudgens' dress. I loved everything about Evan Rachel Woods' look except the hair. And Freida Pinto just needed to hack off that wayward sleeve and then she'd have been in business.

Hated: Sarah Jessica Parker, Jessica Biel, Amanda Seyfried, Heidi Klum, Reese Witherspoon, Beyonce, Halle Berry, Miley Cyrus (I get what she was going for, but it just didn't work).

[taffers]

I was very underwhelmed this year. Nothing to die for.

I liked SJP's and Tina Fey's. I actually liked Miley Cyrus' too- cute for her age.

Angelina's was so boring, although I loved her earrings.

I HATED Beyonce's, but then again, I almost always hate what she wears- her taste is horrible. And of course her mom designed it!

Reese's was pretty fugly too, which surprises me because I usually love her look.

I like the neckline/collar on JLH's dress, but the rest looks like it was made from spandex!

[Ummm]

fav:
Evan Rachel Wood & Marisa Tomei (tho i wish it's not one-shouldered).

[Adaya]

I hated Kate Winslet's hair. It looked like the plastic hair on a Ken Doll or something.

[tgr68]

I haven't read through the thread (and I'm sure I'll be back to comment on others), but I just had to pop in and say that I though Penelope Cruz was absolutely stunning!!

[udsweetpea]

Beyonce needs to wear her hair down with those elf ears she has.

[tgr68]

Miley - I thought overall she looked really cute (very age appropriate), but I did not like her dress at all!

I was disappointed in Heidi Klum. Normally she looks so great, and I thought she was a mess here. :(

I kept wondering if SJP's boobs were in pain.

Anne Hathaway looks amazing!

Beyonce was yuck!! Why does her mother insist on the mermaid cut dresses. They simply do not look good on B.

Angelina was in black again. *sigh* The emeralds were to die for though!

I am not typically a fan of Evan Rachel Wood, but I thought she looked very, very pretty.

Disappointed in Reese. She's normally so well put together.

Loved Tina Fey!!

[attorneymom]

I actually liked Miley Cyrus' too- cute for her age.

I thought this too.

[jesseybell]

I am in the minority too and I really liked Miley's dress.

[udsweetpea]

I loved Miley's dress! It suited her perfectly.

[imagirliegirl]

Yikes, Elle. Talk about an unflattering dress!
