Reese Witherspoon in Michael Kors

This is great. You'd think Reese would look more relaxed when she's just there to hobnob and not as a nominee, but maybe she was just wondering how to get the party to turn on Big Little Lies.

Kate Beckinsale in Zuhair Murad

This is beautiful. But if you're going to have that much fabric on your shoulders, you can surely spare some to line the skirt. These sheers don't offend me THAT much, but I think they distract from how great the beading is.

Juliette Lewis in Christian Siriano

I keep putting my hand over the bottom of this to try to figure out if I think it would work better without the sheer bottom of the skirt? I...don't know if it does, though. The sheer might be right? I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS.

Molly Sims

This sheer is not right; it's almost too half-hearted. Either DO IT or DON'T.

Zoe Kravitz in Armani

This is for a very expensive, very exclusive human sacrifice ritual.

Amber Stevens West in Thomas Wylde

I just realized this might be navy blue, but we're here now. And "here" is GREAT. She looks absolutely fantastic in this dress. The lighter blue lining is divine.

Laverne Cox in Rohit and Rahul

I want to say this to many women at the Oscars this year: PICK A SLEEVE.

Michelle Monaghan in Brandon Maxwell

I know I SHOULDN'T like this but I DO like it and I can't even tell you why. (I might have liked it better if it had no cut-outs at all, but that might have been TOO severe.)

Jurnee Smollett-Bell in Con Ilio

This is extremely foofy.

Hannah Bronfman in Off White

There's a lot to unpack here but the one thing I keep focusing on is that I think I can see the duct tape on her nipples. I guess I'm thankful they're there...???????

Katharine McPhee in Amanda Wakeley

To quote our friends Tom and Lorenzo: Girl, that's not your dress.

Rachel Bloom in Tony Ward

This, on the other hand, IS her dress. She looks great in this (though she might need a little jewelry).

Jessica Lowndes

ACK!

Abbey Lee

I kinda love this. It's so stark, and then she's wearing like ALL THE RINGS.

Sharon Stone

SHARON!

Oscars Post-Parties: All the Little (and Big) Black Dresses

When in doubt....
