The post-Oscar fashion recap — OY!!!
By the DivaSo, whaddya think of the Academy Awards and fashion. We were let down in a huge way. Not so much that there were tons of foibles, because few made big mistakes. But no one totally knocked our socks off. Perhaps this is reflective of the dicey economy or something….
One person who is getting little acclaim is Alicia Keys. Didn’t that pink dress look nice with her very glam hair and makeup? We thought so. She looked very old Hollywood but in an understated way, which seems in stark contrast to her performance attire.
We also loved the dress on Anne Hathaway. Perhaps the color was a little too white against her fair skin, but all in all, it really photographed and looked Oscar-worthy.
Marissa Tomei also looked great in that confection of a dress, but we felt her hair was a bit of a distraction. We did like Kate Winslett’s unexpected black and gray dress but not her Grace Kelly hair, which aged her. Penelope Cruz also had a wonderful ballgown, but we aren’t jazzed by her too-short bangs.
Jessica Biel — an unfortunate hair, big dress combo. Amy Adams, same deal. She looked too old when she usually looks fresh.
At least Robert Downey Jr.’s facial fillers and Botox seemed to be working effortlessly. He looked totally refreshed.
Oh, and Angelina in black with those emerald earrings was divine. Jen Aniston, not so memorable. We could have done without the girly braid in her hair although she did seem happy.
Happy is good.
