Charlize Theron wore a two tone Dior gown with a dramatic train and back, finishing off her look with Harry Winstone diamonds.

Awards season's new darling Carey Mulligan continued to show her love of Prada in a daring dress with unique embroidered shapes of tiny forks, knives, scissors and other charms.

Another fashion risk taker Zoe Saldana showed her bold style in a voluminous multi-coloured number by Givenchy Haute Couture.

Staying true to her bohemian style Nicole Richie chose a vintage gown by Reem Acra.

And making another iconic choice Sarah Jessica Parker chose Chanel Haute Couture for this year's Academy Awards. Wearing a pale yellow satin dress with silver embroidery, the actress added extra drama with a cinnabon hair style and Fred Leighton jewelery.
