Couture craze at Oscars 2010

Written By on Mar 9th, 2010

Couture gowns seems to be the to-go choices this year on the red carpet, besides Jean Paul Gaultier and Valentino, a number of major couture houses had at least one celebrity endorsement. Kudos to those who took risk and went for the more unpredictable, unconventional choices (Saldana, SJP), BUT pulling off couture is not an easy feat without the body, the posture and high drama, will leave you to judge who wore it best.

Zoe Saldana in Givenchy Couture

Diane Kruger in Chanel Couture

Sarah Jessica Parker in Chanel Couture

Jennifer Lopez in Armani Privé

Unflattering much?

Amanda Seyfried in Armani Privé

Rachel McAdams in Elie Saab couture

Anna Kendrick in Elie Saab couture

Charlize Theron in modified Christian Dior Couture

Poor Charlize endured quite an amount of ‘cinnamon bun’ jokes.

    I actually love everyone’s look except maybe so much better on a model and on the runway. In real life, not so much.

    Interestingly, I liked JLo in the Armani Prive dress until I saw how much better it looks on Karlie. Also, I think the JLo’s version is a little off because the folds are squished and not as bouncy. It looked like an attachment on the hip whereas Karlie makes it look like part of the skirt.

    I love the Givenchy dress.. but somehow it appears to have shorten Zoe Saldana in various photos.. maybe the stylist should have consider chopping off the diamante decollete to elongate her body proportion for the red carpet.

    the rest are awesum except Jlopez and Charlize Theron …
