MY FASHION OBSERVATION OF THE ACADEMY AWARDS SHOW, FIVE YEARS AGO....IN ANTICIPATION OF WHATEVER WILL BE THIS YEAR.......

 Lupita Nyong’o in custom Atelier Versace (Ugh!); Emily Blunt in Schiaparelli Haute Couture with 'loaned' Chopard jewelry! (Zzzz!"); Haley Bennett in Christian Dior (did someone clean out my lawnmower chute?); Sally Hawkins in Armani Privé with 'loaned' Chopard Jewelry (made her look like an Auschwitz survivor with shoulder pads); Molly Sims in Naeem Khan (standard bleached blonde, Dynasty Hooker costume); Nicole Kidman in Armani Privé, Harry Winston jewelry and Christian Louboutin shoes (she can carry this off, if anyone can....She's that 'in charge'); (a few 'perfectly tastefully Hollywoodish predictable Zac Posen (with great reservation about Andra Day's super hideous Zac Posen getup) and Christian Siriano {but I'll have eternal nightmares over 'Whoopi Goldberg in Christian Siriano'}); some boring 'Label' getups from Louis Vuitton; a 'hot' Jennifer Lawrence in Metropolis Metallic Dior and equally 'hot' bookend,

Gal Gadot in Givenchy and Tiffany & Co. jewelry; Saoirse Ronan in 'what's to criticize about it....the ubiquitous bow?" Calvin Klein.....more 'borrowed' jewelry...... ; how about a 'male'....well....how about Timothée Chalamet in Berluti's Prom Night 'too short stovepipe pants with too-long black, side-zippered boots'; Camila Alves in Vivienne Westwood (so, that's where the old table cloths and napkins that I tossed went!.....over a 1950's tulle party dress...); Viola Davis, actually 'rockin' a Pepto Bismol Pink Michael Kors 'Collection'; was 'Gucci punishing' Salma Hayek, or is her taste that bad?; Helen Mirren looked better on the Jet Ski float, than in that old blue-gray flannel sheet; Tony Ward issued some 'last year's style' gowns, cut to the withered umbilical cord attachment point, and beyond....Betty Gabriel, still marketing 'tit tape';

Leslie Bibb in J. Mendel, doing her 'sure thing', mimic-walking the ghosts of J. Mendel's posthumous Dior....hmm....borrowed from Charlize Theron's Couture collection?; Allison Janney in Reem Acra looked like a model of 'good taste and refinement' after being assaulted by Vera Wang's assault, with Taraji. P Henson's willing 'slit to the clit' collaboration....;Adam Rippon, without socks....a pet peeve of mine......gets my 'most tacky and tasteless' B&D award...stick to those 'butt statement' ice skating costumes, Adam!...even though you're gunning for Johnny Weir's job[s]; Then, there were a few 'wins', but that's no fun, is it? I still don't understand why these actresses. that get paid millions of bucks/picture.....still have to 'borrow' jewelry to wear! and everything else! Shout out to Frances McDormand...for 'no mention' of 'Who She's Wearing'!
