oscar red carpet trends

Sunday, March 2, 2014

i thought the academy awards red carpet was alright. it lacked bold fashion risks and i was a little underwhelmed. i'll do a run down on some of the trends i noticed all night. 

PEPLUM TREND 
amy adams in gucci / jennifer lawrence in dior / julia roberts in givenchy
PRETTY PASTEL
jada pinkett in versace / lupita nyong'o in prada / camila alves in gabriela cadena

CHAMPAGNE-HUED AND SPARKLES
cate blanchett in armani prive / kristen bell in roberto cavalli / jessica biel in chanel haute couture
NAVY 
sandra bullock in alexander mcqueen / ellen degeneres in saint laurent / sari mercer
BLACK AND WHITE TUX
matthew mcconaughey in dolce & gabanna / jared leto in saint laurent / ryan seacrest in burberry
and here a few highlights from the show :

  • jared leto's love for his mom
  • lupita's best supporting actress victory and touching speech
  • ellen degeneres long overdue return to host the academy awards (and she nailed it!)
  • pharrell williams live performance of nominated original score happy  with the reapperance of his famous "hat"
  • largest pizza party ever - ellen passed out pizza for everyone (stars eating pizza in their fancy borrowed duds!)
  • angelina jolie's 42 carats total diamond drop earrings 
  • ellen's live tweeting all throughout the show and this EPIC SELFIE for the record :

it was yet a looong show but surprisingly i made it to the end, thanks to twitter and some of the most hilarious #oscar tweets!

It was a fun night. I saw the entire thing which is rare...I usually go to bed half way thru. I love Lupita's and Blanchett's dresses the best.
