Well, The Oscars have come and gone again this year and it certainly did not disappoint. From Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper's romantic duet to Rami Malek's first nomination and first win all in the same night, I thoroughly enjoyed every minute. However, it is not so much anxiously awaiting to see who will win that always ropes me in, it's the fashion. I love watching the stars arrive on the red carpet to strut their stuff and I love judging their gowns and tuxes for myself even more. So here are, in my opinion, the 10 best and the worst numbers of the year.
1. Best: Lady Gaga
This queen looked absolutely elegant and breathtaking in a simple black gown. Sometimes simplicity is key.
2. Worst: Rachel Weisz
Scarlett O'Hara made a dress from her window curtains, Rachel Weisz made a dress from her shower curtain.
3. Best: Brie Larson
Sometimes when a dress is that sparkly, it can make someone look like a disco ball, but Brie Larson pulled this number off impeccably.
4. Worst: Kacey Musgraves
So that's where my missing shower loofah went!
5. Best: Charlize Theron
Some say that Charlize Theron missed the fashion mark this year, but I think she hit it spot on. As I stated previously, sometimes simplicity is key.
6. Worst: Maya Rudolph
Maya, I love you, but this was definitely not your best look.
7. Best: Amy Adams
The intricately embroidered dress was a winner in my book this year and Amy Adams is a winner in my book every day.
8. Worst: Linda Cardellini
I, for one, am not a fan of ruffles in general, but this dress was way over the top.
9. Best: Laura Harrier
This dress was probably my favorite this year - a beautiful color and beautiful embroidery for a beautiful woman!
10. Worst: Emma Stone
Good thing Emma has her suit of armor on for battle!
11. Best: Constance Wu
Yellow is not an easy color to pull off, but Constance Wu did it brilliantly.
12. Worst: Gemma Chan
Don't stare at her Gemma Chan's dress for too long, your eyes will start to hurt!
13. Best: Allison Janney
Allison Janney knocked it out of the park this year which only reaffirms the fact in my mind that she can do no wrong.
14. Worst: Glenn Close
And the award for "Best Imitation of an Actual Oscar" goes to....
15. Best: Kiki Layne
Kacey Musgraves, take notes, this is how you pull off pink.
16. Worst: Sarah Paulson
Sarah must have been channeling her "American Horror Story" training because this dress gave me nightmares.
17. Best: Henry Golding
Henry Golding honoring the Golden Age of Hollywood in this swanky tux? YES PLEASE!
18. Worst: Olivia Colman
Good thing Olivia Colman won an Oscar this year because she was definitely not going to be winning "Best Dressed."
19. Best: Billy Porter
Billy Porter definitely wins the award for "Most Unique." #Slayme
20. Worst: Tessa Thompson
Was anyone else reminded of the leg lamp from "A Christmas Story?" Sorry Tessa, but I don't think that's what you were going for.
Some honorable mentions in the "best" category include Regina King, Melissa McCarthy, Helen Mirren, Emilia Clarke, Amandla Stenberg, and Elsie Fisher.
