Yesterday evening everyone’s attention was at the most famous Red Carpet ever, the Oscars, which also celebrated its 90th anniversary. Even this year, the ceremony was hosted by Jimmy Kimmel and he amused everyone during the entire ceremony. This year there were no surprises at the Oscars, because it was very obvious who was going to win in each category, and the organizers made sure there were no mistakes this time when presenting the Award for Best Picture.
The highlight of the evening was for sure Frances McDormand, who won the award for the Actress in the Leading Role for her movie Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri. It wasn’t special the fact that she won Best Actress, but her emotional speech was all about women and she made every woman present in the ceremony stand up and congratulated them for their achievements and their strength.
But, let’s get back to the amusing part, the beginning of the ceremony, which involves every famous personality walking on the Red Carpet. This year we thought we would expect more from our favorite stars, but our list for best dressed is quite short. Despite this fact, everyone had given major importance to their look and something quite notable were the amazing and vibrant jewelry the stars wore. The Rebel Heart would distinguish Jane Fonda among all the personalities who attended the Academy Awards, because she showed to every woman out there that age has no limit. She proved that beauty will forever last and her look made us all dream about becoming like her one day. Her timeless beauty and her elegance at only 80 years old is something to always keep in mind. Let’s move along with our favorite outfits that include Jennifer Lawrence in Dior, Taraji P. Henson who was quite sexy in that Vera Wang dress, Margot Robbie in Chanel, Gal Gadot in Givenchy, Jane Fonda in Balmain, etc.

The list of worst dressed includes Salma Hayek in Gucci, Emma Stone in Louis Vuitton, Whoopi Goldberg, etc. This year we were quite surprised by Emma Stone, because she chose to be very simple at the Red Carpet, but that simplicity was not right for such event as the Oscars. Whoopi is always different and always unique with her look, but she did not made us like her outfit this time.
