Oscar Red Carpet Gowns

My fashion buddy is so crazy with various evening gowns. Red carpet fashion shows at any event offer her the best chance to release her evaluation ability and aesthetic taste. This year, she definitely did not miss the Oscar red carpet and we shared something in common.

Here are our favorite outfits:
3. Reese Witherspoon in Nina Ricci


It's Nina Ricci, and it is Nina Ricci by Olivier Theyskens! Olivier is born to make breathtaking gowns, and his talent is second to none.

Our only complaint is that dark purple is not Reese's best color. The color also faded away with the Oscar stage background. A simple Olivier grey would have done the perfect job!

2. Cate Blanchett in Armani Prive


Cate can pull off anything, but this Armani Prive gown is the best color she could possibly choose. We bow down before Cate Blanchett's sense of style. With the metallic shine, the gown looked very relevant to what is happening in the fashion world now. To be honest with you, I didn't even think that it could be an Armani gown because Armani was always boring to me, including the Prive couture line. (if you don't believe me, look at Zhang Ziyi's Armani gowns. Don't they all look the same?)

1. Nicole Kidman in Balenciaga


Nobody asked her whom that dress was by, but the fashion lovers knew it was Balenciaga. To my fashion hubby, the metallic red trims and the way it fits the body were 100% Balenciaga. The red color made her radiant, and the bow added a twist. It's a home run. She definitely brings in the taste of classic and elegance. Nobody could compete with her at this year's red carpet show.
