If I Had to Walk the Red Carpet

Happy International Women’s Day!  Did anyone watch the Oscar’s on Sunday? I missed it because i was traveling but I heard it was great and my favorite part is always the gowns. Speaking of fashion, the next wedding I am going to the attire for women is a “bright cocktail dress” but I have been trying to find some other location to wear this stunning lilac gown to.  And that got me thinking – in the exact opposite direction for finding a dress for this event – what would I wear if I had to attend a real red carpet event, what would I wear?   I would hope by whatever time I have the privilege to walk a red carpet I am either famous for some reason I have not thought of yet or a really, really big blogger and in either case a designer would offer to dress me (which would be a dream) because these gowns – never mind the shoes, jewels, bag, hair, and makeup – all cost a pretty penny.  But money aside besides Angelina’s thigh high slit above here are five other gowns I would love to wear: 

 

Amy Adams in Oscar de la Renta , 85th Academy Awards (source) 

Nicole Kidman in Balenciaga, 79th Academy Awards (source)

Jennifer Lawrence in Christian Dior Couture, 85th Academy Awards (source) 

Lupita Nyong’o in Prada,, 86th Academy Awards (source) 

Six gorgeous gowns worn by six gorgeous ladies all to different years of the Oscars or Academy Awards. I know you can wear a short dress or even pants if you want but I am positive I would go with a long gown, likely with either a statement feature or in a bold color.   

Do you have a favorite red carpet dress?
