84th Academy Awards Nominees Luncheon

On Monday 6th February film stars gathered at The Beverly Hilton Hotel for the annual star studded Oscar nominees luncheon. Less glitzy then the Awards show the luncheon gives the stars a chance to show off their  formal style.


Viola Davis, Rooney Mara, Meryl Streep, Octavia Spencer, Bérénice Béjo and Melissa McCarthy.

Love this pink J.C. Obando silk halter dress on Viola though i wasn't keen on her choice of shoe, the colour looked dull and ashy. Her hair and make up looks good though! 
Rooney works the androgynous look with a black ASOS jumpsuit and a white Thierry Mugler blazer 
Meryl is one lady who normally ends up on the worst dressed list but this black dress paired with black tights and heels was a great choice.
How amazing Octavia look in this David Meister wrap dress? Love the leopard print clutch too.
Newcomer Bérénice Béjo looks lovely in this purple Elie Saab dress. It's the perfect mix of formal and dressy.
This navy dress looks gorgeous on Melissa. The colour is perfect for her skin tone. Great accessorising with the clutch and beads too. 

Normally i hate 'worst dressed lists' but i wasn't a fan of Glenn Close's and Michelle Williams' outfits.
Glenn wears Stella McCartney and Michelle opted for this cloud dress by Victoria Beckham

First of all let me say that i applaud Glenn for taking a risk, she looks so well and I like her trousers but i really don't like the jacket. If she had worn a white blazer with some small blue detailing i think this outfit would look so much better. 
Now onto Michelle, I want to like this dress but i just can't. I get it's supposed to be cute and quirky with the clouds but it doesn't appeal to me at all. I like the shape of the dress with the collar but those clouds ruin it for me.


And it would be rude of me to leave out the lads.
Gary Oldman, Jean Dujardin, Demián Bichir, Brad Pitt and George Clooney.

How dapper do these gentlemen look? All of these photos have got me excited and intrigued to see what everyone will be wearing on the big day. I don't think i can choose a favourite look from this event as everyone looked so good. What outfit do you think outshines the others?
