{Fun} Oscar Best Actress Dresses Thru The Years
The Academy Awards aka The Oscars is the final hurrah of the awards season and I thought it would be fun to take a trip down fashion lane with this cool graphic.
These are digital interpretations of the dresses rocked by the leading actress winners from 1929 – 2014. (note I started this post a couple of days ago, so the cut images have some designers listed as unknown but Mediarun has since updated some of those on the main photo, which they will be selling as a poster.)

First off, I was surprised to learn that some actresses did not attend the ceremony to accept their awards. For example, Katherine Hepburn (who I LOVE) won 4 Oscars and never attended. From what I read of her, that is not surprising at all. She was truly her own woman.
1954: Audrey Hepburn in classic Hepburn style won for Roman Holiday (video).
This dress was lovely and the inspiration for MY WEDDING DRESS!.
1969: Babs in her see thru, sequin jumper was the 60’s personified!
1978: Diane Keaton, always the fashion enigma rocked her unique boho flair.
1988: Who could forget Cher and her Bob Mackie creations. They were always a sight to behold!
2004: Charlize Theron giving life in Gucci
2002: Halle in her fab Elie Saab dress, the drawing is cute but it doesn’t do it justice!
Kudos to Mediarun for this. It was really cool to see, especially some of the older dresses.
