Neutral sets the tone for the 81st Annual Academy Awards. From pale golds, and pale silvers, to frothy whites and ivory's. The palest of the pale was where it was at on the red carpet this year.
The Wrestler definitely did the best as far as fashion goes. With Marisa Tomei (in Versace) a clear favourite of mine and Evan Rachel Wood (in Elie Saab) a strong second.

Penelope Cruz (in Vintage Pierre Balmain) and Sarah Jessica Parker (in Dior Haute Couture) both sported beautiful frothy gowns, and were definitely amongst my favourites. Look at the stunning train of Penelope's gown.
