Oscars 2009: Penelope Cruz scoops Best Supporting Actress in Balmain

Blogged by ShinyStyle...

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.

Oscars 2009: Kate Winslet in Atelier Yves Saint Laurent

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?

Oscars 2009: Freida Pinto in John Galliano

From Andrea at ShinyStyle...

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.

Oscars 2009: Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie in Elie Saab

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.

Oscars 2009: Sarah Jessica Parker in Dior Haute Couture

Sarah Jessica Parker left mouths gaping when she hit the red carpet tonight. Dressed in a stunning strapless mint green Christian Dior Haute Couture customised gown, the Sex and the City star stuck close to hubby, Matthew Broderick. Loving the soft wavy hair and make-up. Did you notice the lack of bling?

Oscars 2009: Heidi Klum in RM by Roland Mouret

Have we found our first fashion faux pa at the Oscars? Heidi Klum raised a few eyebrows in this ill-fitting bright red structured RM by Roland Mouret gown. Red has been a favourite on the red carpet so far, but I'm afraid not even this thigh-splitting number could save this supermodel tonight.

Oscars 2009: Miley Cyrus in Zuhair Murad

Another young starlet to arrive early was Miley Cyrus (it's a sure-fire way to make the television broadcast apparently). In a pale salmon pink gown by Zuhair Murad, the Disney actress sparkled thanks to skirt layers encrusted in silver and charcoal grey beads. Adding a touch of modern elegance was the pearl-feature belt. Talk about bling-tastic. Recession, what recession?
