Dresses at the Oscars?

[nwdisgal]

I thought there were too many pale, flesh colored dresses. It really washed the women out. Reese Witherspoon looked fantastic as always. I loved her hair too.

Jennifer Aniston's dress was ok, but I thought the necklace was all wrong. It hung too low or something. It just didn't work for me.

I thought Charlize Theron looked awful. She is such a beautiful woman, but the dress was terrible and her hair was horrible! Too matronly and she had roots showing.

Salma Hayak looked great too, loved the color.

ITA with you. I hope that the nude colored dresses go out soon because they wash most people out - Reese was one of the few exceptions that seemed to be well matched with a paler color.

I agree with Salma. She filled it out well, too. The dress really looked like it was made for her.

I just saw an interview with Reese Witherspoon. She said her dress was a vintage Christian Dior from the 1950's that she found in a thrift shop in Paris. She said it was thrilling to be wearing something of her own, and not something belonging to a designer. She also said that it needed quite a bit of restoration work before she could wear it. It really was beautiful, and it suited her perfectly.

What a find on her part. I think that people look best in clothes that they feel comfortable in. That dress was so beautiful and classic.

Charlize Theron looked like she brought a pillow with her.

WHAT was that??! That HADto be the UGLIEST dress I have ever seen!

Didn't she look in the mirror? Didn't any of her friends see it? How could she choose something so ugly? I always think that I could go to the gown store at the outlet mall and come up with a better dress than 50% of the ladies.

Charlize was terrible. So was Naomi Watts.

I was 'eh' about Reese. It was nice but not spectacular.

I nearly always love Salma. I thought Keira Knightly was wonderful, expect for the mermaid bottom.

I liked Jennifer Garner's dress. I love her. Was Ben with her? I didn't see the red carpet.

I really liked Feclity Huffman's dress. I wish she would have won.

I was 'eh' about most of the dresses - they weren't bad but they weren't anything special...Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Lopez, Jessica Alba, Jennifer Aniston, Uma Thurman,

I didn't really like Maggie Gyllanhall, Michelle Williams (but I didn't like the purple Golden Globe dress people raved about either), Hilary Swank, who's way to skinny, so is Dolly Parton,

I thought Michelle Williams dress was awful. If you have a chest ruffles are bad and if you don't they are worse. No ruffles over the girls.
