Show Stoppers!

They came, they wore, they conquered! These fabulous actresses are looking sensational in their Oscar gowns:


The Bride Wore White

Penelope Cruz looking like a modern day Audrey in a 1950s Balmain gown
&
Taraji Henson in a light and lovely layered Roberto Cavalli.

Fairy Princesses

SJP in Dior Haute Couture is just a breath of fresh air
&
Miley Cyrus is a young goddess from the sea in a layered Zuhair Murad.

International Blue Belles

Indian beauty Frieda Pinto give a nod to her roots in a stellar John Galliano
&
Marion Cotillard pays homage to French fashion influences in Dior Haute Couture.

Black Beauties

Hollywood Prom Queen Angelina Jolie wears Elie Saab
&
Teen Queen Vanessa Hudgens in a mermaid Marchesa.

So what can we surmise from these fashion standouts? For the body brave, mermaids and sheaths is your go to silhouettes. The ballgown gets a modern touch with a wide belt cinched at the waist. And we're all feeling like a natural woman - the natural waist makes triumphant return from an era of empire waistsand dropped waists.
