2011 Oscars: Red Carpet

Let's be honest, this year's Oscars was a total travesty.

James Franco seemed to be high, Anne Hathaway's overcompensating laughs and wild arm gestures were pathetic, and the show (minus the bit with Russell Brand and Helen Mirren) left me feeling slightly embarrassed and extremely uncomfortable. 

The good news is that there was fashion, and lots of it!

Starting with Ms. Anne Hathaway (aka. the fabulous Rachel Zoe) who had 7 outfits, in addition to her red carpet arrival gown:

Givenchy

I love this look - from the high ponytail to the big bowtie, she made the tux look great:

Lanvin

Eh - also, the hair is hideous, but my sisters and I agreed that it was prep for future looks:

Vivienne Westwood

Fantastic color, not sure about the cut:

Armani Prive

Yes, yes, yes:

Atelier Versace

Looks better in this photo than it did on stage:

Tom Ford

I think this was my favorite:

Oscar de la Renta

. . . until she ruined it by acting like a clown on stage:

Now, on to the red carpet!
