Our Oscar Fantasy Fashion!


Ok, ok we've seen some awards season fashion but nothing compares to the Oscars. The lights are brighter, the dresses are better and I even think the carpet is redder!

So mark the 24th of Feb in your diary and get ready for some serious fashion. But to tide you over until then we've had a little look at the latest collections to see which dresses might be contenders for the night. The more couture the better!


Some people are against wearing red on a red carpet but an exception has to be made for a Valentino red, right? This dress is from their SS'13 Couture collection and does what the house always strives to do; it makes the wearer beautiful. 

Possible wearer: I'm thinking this would look unreal on Mila Kunis.


We've seen Jennifer Lawrence in a navy dress similar to this at the SAG awards. At least with this one we won't have the 'did it rip, or is it mean to be like that' debate (FYI it didn't rip, the top tier got folded up!). This Christian Dior Haute Couture gown is something that you might only get away with at the Oscars; yellow, sculptural, cutouts. But it still manages to be simple and chic!

Possible wearer: It's got to be Marion Cotillard, doesn't it?


Who said that black is the safe choice? If Elie Saab can do anything, it's make a gorgeous gown and his SS'13 Couture show was no different. Elegant but so intricate, this would photograph beautifully and look great on the red carpet. 

Possible wearer: Gwyneth Paltrow maybe?


Chanel always makes an appearance at the Oscars and I doubt this year will be any different. With a change of accessories - and maybe less eye makeup - this could wow on the red carpet. Soft and super-feminine, a light lining would make it a stronger presence and put a halt to all those 'granny pants' headlines. 

Possible wearer: Can't you see Anne Hathaway rock this?


If there's ever a time to break out the metallic fish-tail it's on Oscar night. Clean up the accessories and this Jean Paul Gaulier Couture gown could blow the rest of the red carpet away. I'm not a massive fish-tail fan but for this, I could make an exception!

Possible wearer: I would love to see Jennifer Lawrence in something like this!


So what do you think? What have been your favourite Oscar looks ever? Let us know! And don't forget to check out our Facebook for all our news and stock photos.

  1. I adored this white silk dress that Angelina Jolie wore to the Oscars in 2004.
