Although jewel tones ruled the red carpet at previous awards shows this season, last night had our stars wearing white (and it&#8217;s other fair-hued counterparts). Although there were a few mis-steps (not a fan of Nicole Kidman&#8217;s Dior number, although we generally love her) most did it right in looks that were everything from white hot to soft and romantic with lace trim and lots of tulle!<em> (<strong>James Franco<\/strong> in <strong>Gucci<\/strong>, <strong>Anne Hathaway<\/strong> in <strong>Givenchy Haute Couture<\/strong>). <\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bellabambinidesign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/oscar-gowns1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-820\" title=\"oscar gowns1\" src=\"http:\/\/bellabambinidesign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/oscar-gowns1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"369\" srcset=\"http:\/\/bellabambinidesign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/oscar-gowns1.jpg 600w, http:\/\/bellabambinidesign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/oscar-gowns1-300x184.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a>One star who nearly always knocks us out with her red carpet style is <strong>Halle Berry<\/strong> and she did not dissappoint in this lovely <strong>Marchesa<\/strong> number, Neil Lane jewels.
