The Oscars: Red carpet hits and misses

Who was the fairest of them all? Amy Adams styled herself, Kate Hudson channelled Faye Dunaway, Cate Blanchett wore a nude Armani, and Jennifer Lawrence let it slip, says Rachel Marie Walsh

Lupita Nyong’o made jaws drop in this Prada goddess gown, accessorised with tiara headband and a turquoise cocktail ring. The plissé train sparkled like a Disney princess’s. The best supporting actress described the gown’s colour as “a blue that reminds me of Nairobi.” Micaela Erlanger, her New York-based stylist, has done a fantastic job throughout this awards season.
