So in honor of the famous awards ceremony which will take place shortly, I listed some of my picks of the best Oscar dresses from the past.
Hilary Swank in Guy Laroche, 2005 - The actress won an Oscar that year for her role in 'Million Dollar Baby' and this backless, long sleeved navy blue Laroche dress made her look like one! It went on to become one the most iconic Oscar dresses of all time.
Gwyneth Paltrow in Tom Ford, 2012 - Gwyneth looked sophisticated and chic in this Tom Ford White Cape dress at the ceremony last year.
Audrey Hepburn in Hubert de Givenchy, 1954 - This white floral Givenchy creation was a perfect for Hepburn as it was both girlish and elegant at the same time, just like her.
Kate Winslet in Ben di Lisi, 2002 - The Titanic actress looked exquisite in this red gown with an intricate, delicate floral accent across one shoulder. Loved the color, loved the design!
Keira Knightly in Vera Wang, 2006 - Keira stole the show with this custome made plum taffeta gown which she accessorized with a Bulagari necklace. With its classic full fishtail design and twisted one shoulder strap, this gown was a stunner. The lovely plum shade was a cherry on the top.
Katherine Heigl in Escada, 2008 - Back in 2008, Katherine Heigl was bang on trend with this red custom made Escada one shouldered column dress. Red and One shoulder were the key trends that night. Not only was her dress perfect, but her hair and make up were flawless as well.
Beyonce in Atelier Versace, 2005 - Classic and simple! Beyonce looked stunning in this luscious black velvet vintage gown.
Marilyn Monroe, 1951 - She could wear rucksack and look gorgeous in it! Back in 1951, Marilyn wore this black tulle dress from the 20th Century Fox wardrobe department for the 23rd annual Academy Awards. How beautiful does she look?
Michelle Williams in Vera Wang, 2006 - Michelle Williams caused jaws to drop when she wore this stunning marigold design from Vera Wang. The bold, sunny shade of this silk-chiffon dress teamed with red lips catapulted her to the status of a fashion icon. The dress is considered as one of the best in Oscar red carpet history.
Angelina Jolie in Ellie Saab, 2009 - Angelina looked elegant in this black Ellie Saab gown which she accessorized with emerald Lorraine Schwartz earrings. I feel it was one of her best red carpet looks so far.
Cameron Diaz in Oscar de la Renta, 2010 - Cameron dazzled in this crystal studded nude Oscar de la Renta creation. She accessorized the dress with Cartier diamonds. With that red pout and side swept lose locks, she was an epitome of Hollywood glamour.
Jennifer Aniston in Valentino, 2009 - One of my all time favorite actresses, Jennifer sizzled in this beautiful gold embroidered strapless gown. Like always, effortlessly gorgeous.
Jennifer Lopez in Marchesa, 2007 - How cute does J.LO look in this crystal strung Marchesa custom gown? I especially love jeweled neckline of this dress. Along with those soft retro curls, she looked like a complete princess.
Nicole Kidman in Balenciaga, 2007 - This red Balenciaga gown along with the simple make up and minimal accessories makes Nicole look elegant and sophisticated.
Anne Hathway in Armani Prive, 2009 - The Devil Wears Prada actress proved her fashion credentials as she shimmered in this glittery, perfectly fitted Armani Prive gown.
Jennifer Lopez in Zuhair Murad, 2012 - Jennifer looked every inch of a diva in this shimmering, sheer oyster gown which hugged her curvy figure to perfection.
Reese Witherspoon in Armani Prive, 2011 - Reese looked 60's chic in this classic black and white Giorgio Armani Prive evening gown which she accessorized with Neil Lane jewelry and Roger Vivier heels. The strapless black column dress with white silk band at the neckline oozed elegance.
Here's hoping that quite a lot of dresses from this years ceremony can be added to this list...
