Oscar Countdown: Gorgeous Gowns

In my Oscar daydreams I would be preparing for Sunday by writing and re-writing my acceptance speech, practicing how to arrange my disappointed face into a more gracious expression just in case (don’t you hate how the camera immediately focuses on the person who didn’t win, so awful), and getting fitted into one of these four Elie Saab Spring 2011 gowns! No doubt driving my stylist insane with my inability to decide between them*. Which one would you choose? Or perhaps you have your eye on another fantastic gown? Do tell, the sky is the limit, after all we are only dreaming!

*actually perhaps it is better to host the awards instead of being nominated, that way you can change as many times as you come on and off stage and wear all the glorious gowns your heart desires!

    WOW. All of these are jaw-droppingly stunning! I love how none of them are too over the top either

    I ADORED his spring collection – that and Dior were my favorites!! Too bad I don’t look good in white because that is my favorite but if I had to pick something to actually wear it would probably be the last – good color for me – elegant, classic and not too frou frou!!

    oh goodness – be still my heart! That white dress is absolutely perfect! If only I could get married to my mister again, I’d definitely want to wear that!
