Charlize Theron wore Dior for the Oscars, big surprise. Maybe it’s because I was recently looking through an Oscar-fashion retrospective on Charlize’s looks throughout the years, but sometimes it does feel like Charlize phones it in. She chooses the right years to phone it in, to be fair. Charlize was nominated for Bombshell but she knew she wasn’t going to win, and the dress reflects her “Oscar loser” status. It’s “big” enough for a nominee, but it’s also kind of a snooze overall.
Greta Gerwig in custom Dior. First off, the necklace is outstanding. The necklace is great and it works beautifully with her face, her haircut, her coloring. The problem is that there’s a tonal-green problem between the emeralds and the dress. The dress is too olive/muddy and so the emeralds kind of look “off.” Still, I like what she was trying to do. The ensemble probably would have worked had the dress been black or white.
I feel like Blac Chyna just turned up at the Oscars uninvited and she dared people to throw her out. I still don’t know why she was there, but here she is in a Dona Matoshi robe-dress and little else. Seriously, as I was looking through the photos of Chyna, I swear I saw EVERYTHING from certain angles. Also: she’s gotten some new face work, right?

I think Charlize is flawless!
I agree and I love the Madame X vibe of her dress. I wonder if that was a deliberate reference.
I saw the Madam X connection too. I think she looks great. I love it when the gown is spectacular and still it is the actress wearing the gown and not the other way around. That’s a win/win for me. Charlize owns it and it shows.
Flawless.
I do too, what a great look.
As someone once mentioned – if a celebrity is wearing a plain black dress, she is advertising whatever sparkle she is also wearing.
YES, I thought her look was Old Hollywood Glam with a new spin, and I love it. Charlize wears it with such ease. I gave it my top rating for the night.
I hate to say this but Chyna’s face looks crazy.
She looks like she is made of plastic. Her OG face was so pretty. I don’t know why she did this to herself.
My jaw dropped when I saw Blac China for so many different reasons.
Charlize is in the rare position of having so many show-stopping looks in her past, that a beautiful gown like this can seem meh. It’s gorgeous, she looks gorgeous, but it’s not as memorable as things she’s done in the past.
I just don’t like the one shoulder up, one shoulder down effect on Charlize.
I think it looks better when it looks intentional. It looks more like the strap just fell off her shoulder. It comes across a little sloppy.
Yes.
Yes, this is how I wear a wide necked dress at the of a night of dancing!
Probably one of the best looks which shows how dull this years oscar fashion was
You can buy tickets to the show if you spend the $$. But I bet she dared them not to let her walk the “celebrity” carpet instead of the regular entrance.
The mismatched greens on Greta looks super weird. But I have to say I loved whenever they showed her in the audience – she looked so truly happy for everyone who won. It was cute.
I don’t know how anyone could have paired that necklace to that dress. I like both pieces, but not together at all. Her hair and makeup look great though.
Yes. How could that combination not be seen as jarringly off?!? Her stylist needs to go.
But I loved watching her happy takes for each win, and the camera loved her, too.
Why does Baumbach look so miserable? She’s so sunny and sweet, and he’s like a dark cloud.
Don’t like thy one shoulder droopy look
Black Chyna’s face is jacked up but her dress is interesting
That moss green is horrific
Yup the olive green dress isn’t a winning color and the fabric seems so heavy – it looks like drapes. The necklace is stunning.
Charlize Theron’s look reminds me too much of another who had a leg out dress years ago – not a fan of that slit/leg thing.
Blac Chyna is a pass for me – it looks like her body and the dress are at war, her body definitely wins.
Gerwig’s dress may be my favorite, I just love it. A ruby necklace would have probably looked amazing with it.
Fire opals would have a better cast with the dress. Not a fan of olive for a ball gown though.
Blac China looks ridiculous.
Does Charlize ever smile?
This looks like a “Ive stopped caring” look to me. Charlize knew she wasn’t winning and said “just give me a black dress”
I love how much green Greta has worn – it’s my favorite color. But yes, they should have given her TOPAZ to wear with the olive green. Not emeralds. It looks off. The yellow/ruddy tones of topaz would have looked amazing with that dress.
Chyna has veered off into official cat lady territory — like she is having an allergic reaction to a bee sting.
Why does Baumbach always looks so MISERABLE? He seems to be shrinking next to Greta’s Mamma Gorgeousness.
I was thinking the same thing. Noah looks so petulant
I’m not a fan of anyone here lol. I can’t handle Theron’s full-of-herselfness. Or Blac’s either. And Blac looks like a fish out of water. In fact, there’s no H2o in sight, quick, somebody grab a glass.
I really hate this trend of the “straps falling off the shoulder” look. I’m seeing a lot while shopping for a wedding dress and it makes me CRAZY!! Otherwise, I think Charlize looks pretty great.
I don’t care for the olive shade of Greta’s dress… just doesn’t feel like a formal color.
I loved Charlize’s look! I’m a sucker for classic black though. It’s got just the right touch of modernity too.
First time I’ve seen Greta Gerwig and not wanted to set her outfit on fire. I agree though she still missed the mark tonal wise.
GET IT BLACK CHYNA.
PS Noah is a hottie, I’ve been holding that in for days
I think the dress is wonderful! Charlize always kills it imo.
Also why does Noah B always look so miserable?
Lmaoooooo Blac Chyna at the oscars. Reminds me of when that youtuber James Charles was at the MET Gala.
Soooooo low rent, you can feel the relevancy slipping before your very eyes 😆
I like the tonal greens. I don’t like the curtain fringe along the hem.
The dress silhouette is good but tired of seeing icy washed out blondes in severe black. The dress would have been gorgeous is a lighter or more vibrant color.
I love Charlize’s dress and she looks amazing. Greta’s is not my favorite as I think the fabric and color are not that great. Blac Chyna’s gown is gorgeous, but I don’t want to be mean. She looks like she has had way to many fillers or even fillers and a face lift! Isn’t she in her late twenties!
