The first wave of fashion

Nominated for best supporting actress for her role in Dreamgirls, Jennifer Hudson's light brown Oscar de la Renta gown, metallic caplett, and matching jeweled Manolo Blahnik sandals are nothing to be too excited about.


Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts can be seen walking arm in arm down the red carpet, Nicole a head taller than Naomi. As best friends and fellow actresses, these two women demonstrate impeccable style. Nicole reels in a form fitting red halter, with a bow at the neck. Naomi looks stunning in a lemon colored strapless gown, with a black tie at the waist.

Best Actress nominee, Penelope Cruz, is as beautiful in her Beige strapless ruffled gown as the art direction is in her latest movie Volver.
