Catherine’s Take on Oscar Fashions

March 8th, 2010 by Catherine | Filed under Plus Size Fashion.

On the Plus (Size) Side:

I loved…Gabourey Sidibe’s Marchesa!  The color is fabulous and the ruching and criss-cross styling were so flattering.  I would sooooo sell this dress if Marchesa would actually manufacture it in plus sizes.

I liked (but didn’t love)…Queen Latifah’s look.  It was, nice, but the front was a touch wrinkled and I think she has looked better.

Monique was thisclose...

Mo'nique was thisclose...

Hair and makeup?  Flawless.  Color?  Stunning!  Fit…not so much.  I would have loved to see Mo’nique in this very same Tadashi dress, just a size bigger and possibly tailored in to accentuate her figure.  I think this particular dress smoshed her bust in and just didn’t quite do her stunning figure justice.

And, just for fun, a couple of styles that made me laugh, and/or cringe…

Diane Kruger in Chanel…

I am speechless…

And…to end on a happy note, I would have gotten married in Miley’s dress (but girl, stand up straight)
