Red carpet wrap: Jennifer Lawrence

* All hail Jennifer Lawrence — she won the Oscar, and she won the red carpet too, in Christian Dior.

The pale pink silhouette is full-on Hollywood without being overly bridal; the hair and jewellery are in harmony. It looked good from every angle; the fabric never wrinkled, even when she tripped over it.

* After a rather perky appearance in a satin Prada gown on the Academy Awards red carpet, Anne Hathaway changed into another dress for the Vanity Fair party. A Saint Laurent column gown with a metallic sequin triangular neckline, the shapeless silhouette and dove grey colour had us yawning.

* Salma Hayek is one woman who knows how to dress curves; firmly, without spillage and with an incredible Alexander McQueen gown. She looks like an Ancient Egyptian goddess, sexy in a less overt package. The gold McQueen skull box clutch and gold crown in her hair are safe but cute.

* On an Oscar red carpet cluttered with strapless gowns and massive trains, Naomi Watts stood out in this sparkly, gunmetal Armani dress with its unexpected cutout neckline that showed off her amazing figure and soft make-up. Bravo for choosing to be different — and nailing it.
