And Helen Mirren was stunning as usual. Honestly, she could probably make a potato sack look good.<br /><br />One of my other favourites didn't make your list. I thought Halle Berry's dress was wonderful. Another lady who can make anything look good.Annette Gallanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17139138912473286143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2715650832746263882.post-26287552657347287152011-03-07T21:07:23.053-04:002011-03-07T21:07:23.053-04:00Jennifer Hudson was gorgeous. Of your list here, ...Jennifer Hudson was gorgeous. Of your list here, I think her gown is my favorite. <br /><br />Now will there be a gentleman's list as well? I'm always curious to see what the trends are in formal wear for men. I prefer the classic wingtip collar and bow tie, personally. I've never liked the trend toward a long tie with a tuxedo.Travis Codyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06192526507760146748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2715650832746263882.post-80300163674339106802011-03-07T20:13:51.660-04:002011-03-07T20:13:51.660-04:00Love your choices, Julia.

For sheer gorgeousness of the gown, I loved Hilary Swank's and Mandy Moore's.

I think it's hard for Anne Hathaway to look bad, and nearly impossible for Helen Mirren to - I saw a picture of her in a bikini a couple of years ago and she rocked it. She is my hero. And I really appreciate Helena Bonham-Carter's nutiness. I couldn't do it, but I'm glad she does. Great list Julia!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00205025424737829934noreply@blogger.com
