Carey Mulligan may not have won a Best Actress Oscar, but she won our Best Dressed vote. It’s been awhile since we’ve seen a significant group of red carpet gowns, so the Oscars were a welcome relief. After reviewing all the choices, (and seeing this Vogue photo) we decided Carey Mulligan’s Valentino Couture gown was the most amazing dress at the Oscars. It fit perfectly and it’s not a dress we feel like we’ve seen before. Carey was surrounded by a sea of sexy low cut gowns with high slits and she remains elegant without all that skin displayed. We can only imagine the size of the vehicle she arrived in, with this huge skirt….

You’re right Janet, she looks good
She starved herself and looks unhealthy. The dress is beautiful though.
She looks great, but also loved: Amanda Seyfried, Chadwick Boseman’s wife, Laura Dern & Colman Domingo. My fave is probably Laura Dern though, with Amanda in a close second.
It looks as if the dress is wearing her
Certainly eye catching, but looks uncomfortable to wear. And functionally, and naively no doubt, what happens if Mother Nature not only calls but shouts. If you can get all of that frock in the restroom, you can’t without getting a lot of attention which seems to me can be kind of embarrassing. Is it worth it?
