Oscar Best Dressed 2017- Make Celebrity Style Work In Your Wardrobe!

Last night's Oscar Best Dressed stunners certainly played by the K.I.S.S. (keep it simple stunning) principle of memorable celebrity style. Sure there were plenty of heavily embellished gowns, beading, draping and opponent fabrications, I'd bet that each of the more ornate gowns were a testament to incredible craftsmanship. But what happens when the dress is  fussy, the hair is fussy, makeup is heavy, the wearer gets lost in all the extras and becomes forgettable, particularly on TV where the more graphic the appearance, the better it stands out. Simple and Clean Lines Rule... Then you have the visual stunners that you can't forget the next morning- Viola Davis in striking red, Halle Berry and that hair, Charlize Theron in a

Oscar Dress Red Carpet Review

Fashion's Best, Worst, and Plenty in the Middle on the Academy Awards Red Carpet It's the morning after and which star wore the most memorable Oscar Dress? Truth be told, less is more when it comes to the perfect Oscar dress unless you aim to make a big bold statement on the red carpet. It's unfortunate that so many stylists got the memo on frothy dresses with full skirts and plenty of trains because by the end of the evening it was almost impossible to tell each ‘top of the wedding cake' dress from the next. But I do know that their celebrity inspired knock-offs will be coming to a prom near you. Sandra Bullock >> Don't miss OSCAR Fashion
