Academy Awards Pale carpet

Pastel colors have so far ruled the red carpet, creating a frothy sea of organza, tulle and silk in neutral shades of eggshell, champagne, almost mint, grey, putty, and sequins galore. Presenter Sarah Jessica Parker looked boobylicious in her Dior Haute Couture tulle and beaded gown, as she proudly stood next to her loyal husband Matthew Broderick on the red carpet. Someone please tell the Fructus Garnier spokesmodel it's time to return to her blonde roots and shove her chest back into her dress! Supporting Actress winner Penelope Cruz wore an antique Balmain gown which apparently was Cinderella's second choice for the ball. Marisa Tomei wore a stunning Versace gown with a voluminously pleated bodice and train, while Taraji P. Henson looked decadent in a tiered organza Roberto Cavalli gown. Miley Cyrus' ornately beaded Zuhair Murad gown sparkled in opulent layers of what looked like beaded iceberg lettuce, a style better suited for her more mature mom. Tilda Swinton looked divine yet unusually restrained in Lanvin, while master class Meryl Streep looked fresh in a grey flowy off the shoulder Alberta Ferretti dress.

I beg to differ on Tilda... are we looking at the same picture?

We are indeed. This time around Tilda wore something actually wearable, though admittedly not 100% red carpet worthy, and actually of this planet.

I think the issue is that she is not of this planet. And anything she wears only adds to her "other worldliness"! I would need to see this outfit on someone else to really judge it, because she is so darn distracting!
