So, here we are. It’s the morning after the Academy Awards and oh, do we have lots to talk about! While Twitter is abuzz with Oscar hashtags and Jennifer Lawrence meems, I’m more interested in what the stars were wearing.
This year, the stars favored a muted color palette to the bold hues of year’s past. We saw a lot of whites, nudes and soft metallics on everyone from Charlize Theron to Jennifer Lawrence. The only star that opted for a bright color was Jennifer Aniston in a red Valentino gown.
There were some amazing fashion moments and then there were some tragic misses. Here’s my take on what was haute and what was not on last night’s Oscars red carpet.

Jessica Chastain
I have to say that this is my favorite dress that Jessica has worn so far. She looked so chic and glamorous in this golden Armani gown. I also thought her makeup complimented the dress perfectly. Her hair is very “Old Hollywood” and her bold lip makes her skin look like a dream.
Amy Adams
Oh, Amy. She’s always a fashion winner in my book and this dreamy Oscar de la Renta gown is just one of the many reasons. I’m obsessed with the blue/grey color and the girly detailing on the bodice. Her blonde hair also looked great pulled pack into a french twist, which really showed off the neckline of the dress.
Naomi Watts
Naomi received some grief for this silver Armani sheath dress, but I thought she looked amazing! While others opted for the classic princess silhouette, she rocked a fitted gown with unique neckline. The metallic color looked stunning next to her skin and sparkled as she walked the red carpet. I don’t care what anyone says, I loved this look!
Charlize Theron
This was by far my favorite look of the night. Charlize could wear a paper bag and make it look like couture, but this structured Christian Dior is simply spectacular on her. I’m loving the peplum waist and interesting neckline. She looked streamlined, modern and simply beautiful.
Jennifer Aniston
Though I wasn’t a huge fan of the straight neckline, I really loved the red color of this Valentino gown. Jennifer chose to keep her accessories and hair style fairly simple, which I thought was a good choice. Some said the look was too casual for the Oscars, but I think there’s something to be said about simple elegance.
Jennifer Lawrence
J. Law was the talk of the town last night. She tripped going up the stairs to receive the Best Actress award and then flipped off the press later in the evening, but I’m still a fan. She chose a flowing Christian Dior gown with silver accessories for the big night. I thought she looked young, yet sophisticated all at once.
