Viola Davis, who is hotly tipped to win a best actress Oscar for her portrayal of a housemaid in “The Help,” wowed the crowd in a strapless kelly green Vera Wang gown with a cleavage-revealing neckline and pleated detailing.
“She did right by me,” Davis said of Wang.
Her co-star Octavia Spencer, who won the best supporting actress prize, chose a glittering white and silver
gown by Tadashi Shoji, who has dressed her for most of her red carpet appearances during awards season.
And Jessica Chastain, who played a ditzy housewife in “The Help” and was competing against Spencer, earned cheers for her strapless black Alexander McQueen gown with gold detailing at the bodice and hemline.
Oscars gold was also on display with Best Actress nominee Meryl Streep resplendent in a glittering floor-length belted Lanvin dress.
And Angelina Jolie looked every bit the mega-star that she is, wearing a strapless black velvet gown with a thigh-high slit and red, red lipstick.
Best Actress nominee Michelle Williams rocked a strapless coral-red Louis Vuitton number with cascading ruffles and a simple necklace.
Melissa McCarthy, also up for a best supporting actress award for her work in “Bridesmaids.” sported a blush Marina Rinaldi goddess gown with fluttering sleeves and jeweled detailing at the neckline and waist.
For the men, British comic actor Sacha Baron Cohen stole the spotlight, sporting full faux strongman regalia in a publicity stunt for his new film, “The Dictator.”
Aside from Baron Cohen, best actor nominee George Clooney led the way for the men in classic Giorgio Armani black.
