The Oscars or the Academy Awards have given us some gorgeous fashion to oogle at over the years. A few examples above from different eras - 1930s Mary Pickford 1940s Gene Tierney 1950s Audrey Helpburn (large pic) 1960s Anne Bancroft and Sidney Pointer 1970s Mia Farrow 1980s Molly Ringwald 1990s Ashley Judd 2008 Amy Adams - show that classic design never goes out of fashion. For more photos go to the official Oscar website.
If you'd like your own covetable outfit there are many independent online sellers who can frock you up for any formal occasion. Here are a few that I like. Just click on the pics to go to these designers' stores.

Or if you'd like to walk the red carpet one day as a film maker, you could make your own indepentent film. In the closing paragraph of Michel Gondry’s book You’ll like this film because you’re in it, the author offers to send all readers a free digital camera if they send him a proposal for a community movie.

thanks for this post Chrisy- something to ponder- being a high fashion goddess myself, i can see me there in cottantails and a crop top......i would however, do my hair for the occasion xx
Can you wear something with paint on it??
Lovely fashions....now if only I .....

Hey Chrisy, interesting choices of designers, and Thanks for featuring my Disco Dress!
And i have to say, i like the old movies much better, then lets say the ones of the last 10/15 years!:P
You always post great collections! I'd be a 'Grace Kelly' look I reckon!
I've always wanted to make a stylin outfit out of duct tape - have you ever seen the prom outfits they do.Pretty amazing
Ooh, I'm among some lovely company. Thanks for featuring my dress!
I like your pick from Ouma. It would definitely be black. :)
Maisy Brown and Ouma picks are to die for!
oooh, i like that ouma dress A LOT!!
Wow! Something to aspire to....
Thanks for coming by my blog.
I would want to wear a black, jet embellished, vintage 1920s dress. I'd even want it partly ripped and deconstructed, I want an authentic 1920s dress!!!
Any Audrey Hepburn gown would be fine in my book...classy lady in every sense of the word!
i would kill for that black bubble cocktail dress! the oscars should bring back the old hollywood glam...timeless and classic! xoxo
These outfits are very lovely! I would definitely dress in something timeless and elegant if I had to go to the Oscars :)
Bring back classic Hollywood!
oh, i love the Ouma dress! :)
