Annual Academy Awards: Kate Hudson in Custom Atelier Versace

 Kate Hudson in Custom Atelier Versace

Kate Hudson looked absolutely stunning in this gorgeous Custom Atelier Versace silvery-ivory silk gown with hand-sewn crystals. The gown featured strong 1940s (or 80s depending on how old you are!) shoulders, a deep-v plunging neckline, a twist-knot draped front midriff/hip detail and back cowl-cape drape...

Donatella Versace's most recent Atelier Versace Spring/Summer 2014 collection featured many of these cowl-capes that were worn as hoods on the runway models (example above). I'm glad Kate didn't show up like this at the Oscars, although, it might have added SOME much needed style surprise to the 2014 Oscars red carpet.

WHO WORE WHAT?.....86th Annual Academy Awards: Charlize Theron in Custom Christian Dior

 Charlize Theron in Custom Christian Dior

The statuesque Theron is another Dior spokesperson so again, not a surprise she wore Custom Christian Dior. The silk gazar and organza gown featured a sweetheart neckline with clear shoulder straps giving a look of strapless when it really was not. The neckline was the perfect frame for that OUTRAGEOUS diamond necklace. The gown had many horizontal pleats/folds beginning at the knew and trailing out into a dramatic full bottom half.

It is a very dramatic gown but nothing spectacular I think. She does look beautiful as always. I just wish she would have taken much more of a Red Carpet Gown Risk.

Oh...and by the way, she was wearing 15 Million Dollars worth of Harry Winston Diamonds!!! 



What do you guys think of Charlize and this gown choice?
