I really, really hope this is the beginning of seeing more Rodarte on the red carpet. And an auspicious start it was. Natalie Portman was perfectly appropriate for a presenter's role - fashionable without being overdone. Ever the vegan, she also wore Stella McCartney shoes (always animal friendly), a vintage Rialto clutch and Kwiat jewellery. She stood out in what I think was the only pink dress on the carpet, but kept things simple and classic. And of course was hilarious with Ben Stiller on stage.

Opting for this season's favourite style - the one-shouldered dress - was Marisa Tomei. Designed by Versace Atelier the soft grey satin and organza gown worked a treat on The Wrestler actress, who admitted that the film "was a difficult movie to make." She matched her look with a pair of satin open-toed heels and bling from Van Cleef & Arpels.

Despite some average red carpet appearances lately, Anne Hathaway glimmered in a strapless cream gown from Armani Prive's S/S 2009 collection. The Oscar nominee not only gets our thumbs up for this look, but also for her singing/dancing opening number with Hugh Jackman. Economy woes weren't a factor here, Anne traipsed out in more than one million dollars worth of Cartier jewels. Yes, really.

Seriously, what's cooler than Balmain? Vintage Balmain. Penelope Cruz had her eye on this vintage piece for eight years and finally decided now was the time to wear it. I can't help but fear that she stole some girl's wedding dress out from under her, but glamorous, glitzy white gowns are the trend of the 2009 Oscars. Cruz won the Best Supporting Actress award for Vicky Cristina Barcelona.

Will it be Kate Winslet's night? While we wait to see if 'our' Kate will nab her first Oscar, here she is arriving at the Kodak Theatre earlier. Dressed in a one-shouldered steal-grey Atelier Yves Saint Laurent gown, it mixed things up with an embroidered mesh panel. Make-up and hair was flawless and with jewellery toned down, she added a Chopard bracelet and earrings. Overall, it was a simple and sophisticated look, but will it be the dress that sees Kate written into the history books?

Like her film Slumdog Millionaire, Freida Pinto is the true Cinderella story of the 2009 awards season. She has struck us every time with her beauty and intelligence, but unfortunately has yet to truly strike us with her fashion. Tonight we were glad to see her in something a little brighter and a shape inspired by her home country. But her blue John Galliano gown wasn't as youthful as we would have liked. She wore Jimmy Choo shoes, Judith Leiber bag and a Martin Katz ring featuring a 150-year-old vintage diamond from India.

HOT COUPLE ALERT! We spot Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie smiling for the paps and looking sharp as always. Typically, Angelina chose a simple black draped, strapless gown by Elie Saab and clutch. But the Oscar nominee did add a touch of colour with a whopping emerald ring and earrings by Lorraine Schwartz.
