The highly anticipated 82nd Annual Academy Awards offered fabulous red carpet fashion. Metallics, embellishments and beautiful silhouettes filled the red carpet.  Timeless gowns kept Old Hollywood alive.  There was lots of amazing hair and makeup, too.  There is nothing quite like the combination of Oscars magic and the red carpet.

Perhaps the best celebrity style comment of the evening came from Gabourey Sidibe when she gushed excitedly from the red carpet, “If fashion was porn, this dress is the money shot.”  We love a girl who can appreciate fashion.  And, fashion there was.
