The World of Style & Entertainment

Isla looks amazing. Sacha looks like the guy who used to serve you an ice cream soda at the local place.

WaPo commentary:

Oscars on the top, school uniform in the middle, and … chic international soccer star on the bottom?

Someone should do a Masters Thesis on school uniform culture in Japan and Korea.

The difference in seeing a still photograph and seeing the person move in it can be so night and day. Standing still the gown is "eh" and a bit theatrical. In motion it's an entirely different thing. Angela Bassett brings the gown to life. Also, as a mature woman she wants the eye drawn upwards and away from the torso.

This says and does absolutely nothing.

Nice. That's all I got.

When not even Halle Berry can carry that haircut, you know how bad it is.
Only Moe could wear that, and Larry and Curly would still make fun out of it.

There's something calming about a simple silhouette. Maybe the lipstick is a shade too dark?

I hate strapless dresses. Always have, always will.

This got a lot of traction on the Bird App last night. I'm not quite sure how to feel about it.



Maybe put my Western bias aside?

Angela Bassett is 62? She looks freaking great!

I like the pink suit on Colman, fits him beautifully. And I don't mind the color even though I'm not a pink person. He carries it off well. In terms of this isn't an Oscar color and save it for the Golden Globes. There were no real Golden Globes, maybe some of these would've been worn then, but that wasn't an option in a real way. After staying at home for the last year for a depressing reason, I think many were uninterested in a neutral color palette.

H.E.R. That will be her look, has been her look since she broke out. It's not my choice, but it doesn't matter because her voice is amazing. I think part of the deal here is that she is so very young and adorable. If she's not done up in more this style, man does that come across and I think the focus shifts away from her music. Young, very pretty, petite. The wolves would circle more than they already do. If you see her without all the theatrics, it's a bit jarring and a bit of a surprise. With them, you focus on her words and her music.

I think this is much improved for Margot Robbie. Last season it was like one bad hippy dippy dress after another for some odd reason. She's certainly looked much better in the past, but compared to last season, I was thrilled to see it as I hope this means she will return to the more stunning looks soon enough.


Been busy this week and haven't had the time to sit and just pull photos to post. I'll add to what's here soon.

Additional photo angles that make me like these looks more



Maria Bakalova in Louis Vuitton



Zendaya in Valentino

Ariana DeBose in Versace




Youn Yuh-jung in Marmar Halim




Fuller look of Riz Ahmed in Prada. I like the suit and think he looks mostly good in it, but this is a red carpet, button up the jacket.





Rita Moreno






Emerald Fennell in Gucci. While not a fan of the look I'll excuse a pregnant woman wearing whatever the heck she wants. And then Tom & Lorenzo relayed that Emerld said (and I've checked, she did) that her look was "Susan, your pottery teacher who has a business proposition for you that is absolutely not a pyramid scheme" and now I think she's selling the heck out of this and I'm a new fan of hers.

Celeste in Gucci




Diane Warren





Lil Rel Howery




Renée Zellweger in Armani Privé. Renee skipped the red carpet.




Marlee Matlin in Vivienne Westwood

And Aldis Hodge in Dolce & Gabbana, easily a favorite of the night, looking damn good filling out this expertly tailored white suit. Aldis provided us with all the looks and Tom and Lorenzo felt them worthy of posting all of them as a snack break. Indeed!
