  Mandy Moore in Monique Lhuillier

Mandy Moore makes a fabulous Disney princess and such a beautiful, stately presence on the red carpet. She looked like a true movie star in a sparkling nude gown by Monique Lhuillier, worn with large, retro diamond earrings.

Michelle Williams in Chanel

Michelle Williams' understated Chanel gown was just what we'd expected from the Blue Valentine star, who tends to favor feminine frocks with a delicate touch. Impeccable makeup and eye-catching diamond earrings added the Hollywood touch to Michelle's look.

 

  Amy Adams in L'Wren Scott

There was a new redhead in L'Wren at the Oscars—The Fighter's Amy Adams, whose midnight blue sequined gown looked radiant against her creamy complexion. Bright green jewels, including a necklace worn atop the dress, added an extra dimension to a winning look.

 

  Anne Hathaway in Valentino

There was nothing wrong with Anne Hathaway's vintage Valentino gown, but it was perhaps a bit conservative for the evening's hostess...even when paired with a deep red lip and a sparkling diamond necklace. Was she saving her best look for the telecast?

 

  Jennifer Hudson in Versace

Bye bye bolero! Jennifer Hudson has come a long way since the year she took home an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress, fashion wise. She went for full va-va-voom in a bright red Versace gown that raised plenty of eyebrows with its halter neckline.

 

 Cate Blanchett in Givenchy Couture

If there's any woman who can truly command a couture gown, it's Cate Blanchett. The Academy Award winner was stunning and extravagant in a structured Givenchy Couture creation pebbled with textured beads. Anyone else might have looked like they were trying too hard, but not Cate.

 

Helena Bonham Carter in Colleen Atwood

Helena Bonham Carter worked with costume designer Colleen Atwood on her one-of-a-kind Oscars ensemble. The pair did a fantastic job maintaining Carter's off-kilter aesthetic in a surprisingly elegant fashion. If only we could see if the shoes were mismatched!

Maria Menounos in Johanna Johnson

Red carpet veteran Maria Menounos paired her black velvet gown with hefty helpings of diamonds—check out that bangle! The one-shoulder silhouette was just trendy enough for the big night, especially when paired with a teased half-up, half-down 'do.

 

 

Cheryl Hines in Johanna Johnson

Former Curb Your Enthusiasm star Cheryl Hines opted for a classic silhouette, working her strapless black sweetheart gown with a big, sleek updo and, of course, plenty of diamonds.

 Shaun Robinson

Television personality Shaun Robinson was the first lady to bring a bold blue to the red carpet, flaunting her strong shoulders in a mermaid gown paired with sparkling drop earrings, a silver clutch and a one-of-a-kind cocktail ring.

 

 

Melissa Leo in Marc Bouwer

The Fighter's Melissa Leo was a winner in a custom-made Marc Bouwer gown. With its high, regal neck and strong shoulders, the dress projected a fierce elegance befitting the accomplished actress.

 

 

Jennifer Lawrence in Calvin Klein

Winter's Bone actress Jennifer Lawrence opted for a streamlined look in a bright red Calvin Klein Collection gown worn with smoky eyemakeup, sophisticated blond waves and a bejeweled clutch. 

 

 

Hailee Steinfeld in Marchesa

Hailee Steinfeld had a true princess moment. The True Grit star's soft pink Marchesa gown was pitch perfect with its jeweled sheer yoke and soft tulle skirt. Steinfeld avoided the major bling, accessorizing her look with a thin, glittering headband and plenty of charm.

 

 

Mila Kunis in Elie Saab

It's too bad Mila Kunis looked so bored on the red carpet, because her soft lavender Elie Saab gown was actually quite pretty. The plunging neckline must have turned plenty of heads, as did the semi-sheer skirt. Delicate diamond earrings, a diamond bangle and a soft updo completed her look.

 Jacki Weaver

Animal Kingdom actress and Best Supporting Actress nominee Jacki Weaver complemented her tasteful, heavily jeweled gown with conflict-free diamonds by DeBeers. The veteran Aussie actress joked they cost several times the mortgage on her house!
