Katherine Heigl was stunning in scarlet EscadaStyle-wise, the story of Oscar night was definitely the color red. No less than six attendees stood out in various shades of rouge to match the carpet.
I loved the drama of Heidi Klum's red dress by John Galliano. You can even enter to win it here. Interestingly, she paired her dress with pink accessories. 
Anne Hathaway was draped in deep red Marchesa with rosettes...gorgeous.
Miley Cyrus chose a red Valentino gown that fit her beautifully. 
Dame Helen Mirren dazzled in a merlot-colored Georges Chakra gown. I could have done without the Swarovski crystal sleeves, but they are a unique and age-appropriate touch.

The fabulous Ruby Dee also wore a red gown in a classic silouhette: belted with a matching jacket.

Strapless gowns in richly-colored hues were also very popular last night...
Amy Adams kept it simple and elegant in forest green Proenza Schouler.
Jessica Alba glowed in a plum-colored feathery Marchesa confection.
Jennifer Garner gets high marks for her black strapless Oscar de la Renta gown with a dramatic fishtail. Great hair.
Penelope Cruz wore a navy blue organza dress by Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel Haute Couture that was embroidered with feathers...pure glamour.
I'm a big fan of Kristen Chenoweth's sheer strapless Armani Prive gown with rivers of ruching.
Hilary Swank wore a black one-shouldered Versace dress. Just okay for me.There were some light-colored gowns that graced the carpet as well...
Jennifer Hudson looked lovely in white with diamond details...and even had her back out! Brave girl.
Best Actress winner Marian Cotillard looked amazingly zexy in a white mermaid-esque Jean Paul Gaultier gown with fishscale details.
Cameron Diaz origami inspired Dior gown was a knock out but that light pink color screams 2005. She also looked a tad disheveled on the red carpet (her hair and her dress could both use an iron) but she pulled it together for the telecast.
Keri Russell's Nina Ricci dress bored me to tears. But I did like her necklace. 
It seems everyone is finally over all the sequin, glitz and glitter that has abounded since last year. Only Renee Zellweger showed up a super sparkly number that now looks kind of outdated.
And finally...
Cate Blanchett chose a Dries van Notes halter gown in royal purple. Love the color but I'm not fond of the embellishments at the neck and hem.
A bare-faced Tilda Swinton won the award for Best Supporting Actress but lost a sleeve somewhere along the way.
