Male stars fail to cut a dash on red carpet

Tomorrow, the Oscars red carpet will echo to the calls of “who are you wearing?” as some of the world’s most glamorous women parade the latest offerings from the great and the good of the fashion industry.

Cameras will pan up and down their length searching for the slightest imperfection before quickly hunting for the next actress/victim.

However, unless they happen to be of the ilk of Brad Pitt or George Clooney, chances are the men either accompanying these talented women — reduced for one night only to mobile clothes hangars — or walking the red carpet as a result of their own acting triumphs, will slip into the ceremony largely unnoticed. And it would seem that’s just as well.
