Oscars Red Carpet: The Best and Worst Dressed

It's finally here! The Oscars! The red carpet superbowl! Yes, there were loads of beautiful, ultra-sparkly gowns, millions of dollars of jewels, and perfectly crafted updos. But there were also a lot of boring, tacky, and uninspired gowns. There was also an abundance of white dresses, a polarizing hue that made some actresses look like stunning angels and others look completely washed out. Behold, the very best and worst dressed of the night. By Joanna Douglas, Senior Fashion & Beauty Editor

Typically we prefer this best actress nominee in bold colors, but she was a slam dunk in this curve-hugging copper Armani Prive gown with pink beading. She said she picked it because "it's a very 'Happy Birthday, Mr. President' dress," and she loves that old Hollywood glamor. Her red lipstick and soft, Veronica Lake-esque hair definitely took it in am awesome retro direction.
