FaithManor Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Well, I just saw a dress (on the Academy Awards website...I'm watching the fashion cam) that I think is a bit on the reckless side. Honestly, what is holding it up, I do not know but it must have steel buttresses and concrete reinforced stays. Her booKs were about to fall out and the guy behind her kept making a valiant attempt to step on her train. Wow! I haven't seen anything yet that is stunning although I had a glimpse of Amy (the red head nominated for something whose last name escapes me) and she looked very nice, very tasteful.

Chris in VA Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Ooo, can't wait! Natalie Portman will probably rock the maternity wear, and Helena BC will probably wear something completely stupid (but I hope not, cause I really, really like her!) "I need a pig here!"

Amy loves Bud Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Matthew Mccounaghey's wife looks stunning. MarkyMark's wife had on a a very ugly dress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithManor Posted February 28, 2011 Author Share Posted February 28, 2011 I don't know who the woman was, but from a distance, she looked like C3PO from Star Wards. Seriously do these people own mirrors! Faith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FaithManor Posted February 28, 2011 Author Share Posted February 28, 2011 Natalie Portman is looking beautiful...she has the kind of pregnancy glow that says, "Hey, I didn't have terminal morning sickness with this pregnancy!" Her dress is lovely, flattering, and tasteful. Faith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarcyB Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 LOL the C3PO dress I'm assuming is Gwyneth Paltrow, and I loved it! (and I'm not interested in fashions any other tmie..if it's not sweats and tshirts). Helena Bonham Carter actually looked wonderful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlmiraGulch Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I cannot believe that Penelope Cruz had a baby about 2 weeks ago. Seriously? That depresses me. She looked AMAZING (and I don't usually think that about her). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't it just two years ago or so that he was talking about how he made it through his wife's 60 hour labor? Maybe that's why they aren't married anymore?

KidsHappen Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Love the kids singing somewhere over the rainbow. I did too. I thought that was great and probably amazing for the kids to get to rub elbows with so many stars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stacia Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I thought most of the dresses were pretty blah this year. Loved Gwyneth Paltrow's dress & jewels the most. Loved Cate Blanchett's outfit too -- very 'her'. Both of them can carry off the very modern/futuristic styles. The gal who won best supporting actress (Leo?) had on a hideous dress, imo. Really disliked Nicole Kidman's dress too (esp. w/ the red shoes). :tongue_smilie: Natalie Portman looked nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KidsHappen Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I liked Helen Bonham Carter's dress and I hardly ever do. She has very eccentric taste. I really liked Nicole Kidsman's dress this year. Of course, her hubby is very nice looking as well. I liked the red dresses: Sandra's dress & Jennifer Lawrence's. The Hailee/Halles: Hailee Stein's & Halle Barry. Amy Adams dress was gorgeous. Maria Menounos, Ashlan Gorse (unusual color choice but I have at least two girls that would both pick that color and look good in it), and it seems like there was at least one more blue sparkly dress that I liked but can't place right now.

littlebug42 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Isn't he married? Wasn't it just two years ago or so that he was talking about how he made it through his wife's 60 hour labor? Maybe that's why they aren't married anymore? He is still with the same woman that is the mother of his children. I am not sure if they are married or not but it is the same person.

Chris in VA Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Does anyone else think Anne Hathaway had maybe 2 dresses two many? I thought she rocked the red dress for the red carpet. Didn't like a couple of the others. Pretty girl--they even did her hair several ways during the show! Fun night.:001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithManor Posted February 28, 2011 Author Share Posted February 28, 2011 The C3PO dress was not Gywneth Paltrow. This woman, probably not a star but maybe a member of the press or something, literally was covered in gold fabric that had an "armor" quality! I did not Like Cate Blanchett's dress...I thought that it was actually quite plain, and didn't flatter her at all. But, then, I'm not fond of her haircut either. She always had such lovely hair and now she has that wash and wear, short - not styled look. I want to say, "Woman, you're filthy rich. It's not like you have to get and wash your own toilets, scrub the counters, clean up after the dog, and run to the post office. People work for you! I'm pretty certain you have all the time in the bathroom you want. If I had your hair, I would not be chopping off!!!" But, I'm sure she isn't interested in my opinion. Sandra Bullock, Natalie Portman, Celine Dione (sp), Amy Adams...they all looked so lovely. I thought that just possibly either Anne Hathaway's dress or her lips were just a little "too much". Hailee's dress was sweet and appropriate for her age. I was glad to see her looking elegant, sweet, and not over dressed for her age. Plenty of time for that in the future. What's left of the childhood, as hard as this is to do in Hollywood, was preserved...at least at this Oscar's. Hopefully, she'll be level headed and not find a boyfriend! I was disappointed to not see Will Smith and wife. They always look smashing! They just seem to have amazing taste. Colin Firth - You dreamy oscar winning man you! Will someone tell Tim Burton to get a haircut, clean up, and choose some different glasses so he doesn't look like a character from his creepier films? I was proud of Helen Bonham Carter - it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be! Robert Downey Jr. Tux was really nice. I didn't recognize Louis Gossett Jr. at all until I saw his pic later with the caption. There weren't as many hideous gowns as their were last year, but some dude showed up in a sinus infection green suit with a patterned jacket and solid pants. He was an eye sore against the red carpet. Does he own a mirror???? Faith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibbygirl Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 There weren't as many hideous gowns as their were last year Faith :iagree::iagree: I thought so too. I thought on the whole, it was a well dressed Oscars, but what was up with the greasy hair??? On Russell Brand okay, you almost expect it, but Sandra Bullock?? When I saw her being interviewed on the Red Carpet I thought she looked fab but that her hair looked greasy and dirty. :confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitestavern Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I thought Halle Berry was just breathtaking. I also liked the purple dress on Mila Kunis, although it was a tad lowcut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prairie~Phlox Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I did not care for Jennifer Hudson's dress, the whole half booby things showing to me is not pretty. I really did not like Cate B's dress, the whole circle thing in the middle was unattractive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
