I was looking through the photos of the recently concluded Academy Awards and of course, being the clotheshorse that I am, it was the gowns that I noticed.
I'm partial to neutral colors nowadays, a lot of beige, tan, grays, skin tone and whites. So of course this obsession with neutrals translated to the gowns i swooned over in the Oscars.
Gwyneth Paltrow in Tom Ford surely never fails. Her style, always classic and crisp is always one of my favorites both for evening wear and casual wear.
Mila Jovovich looked elegant in her Elie Saan fully embellished gown that looked sexy yet understated.
Berenice Bejo in my opinion also looked stunning in her Elie Saab mint green gown, but i prefer the gown in white though. (as seen beside her picture)
Kate Mara in Jack Guisso Couture also looked stunning in her vintage inspired embellished gown. I love the skin tone color and the arm draping. The old school feel makes it look so glamorous and Old Hollywood.
Rooney Mara also looked stunning in her white Givenchy gown paired with red lipstick and blunt dark hair. It kind of looks goth glam. It's very different from the usual Oscars' look which made it stand out.
Another gown that caught my fancy was Kristen Wiig's J. Mendel gown. It was beige and ethereal looking, very wispy and sweet.
I noticed that in a way, I'm liking the same look over and over again. The vintage, lace or embellishments, long sleeves in neutral colors. I think it's just sexy, sexier than the revealing gowns some actresses wore or those with loud colors that kind off screams. I think the muted ones gives a look of understated elegance, a quiet but powerful look.
