Audrey Hepburn
How can we talk about fashion and timeless dresses and not mention Audrey Hepburn! Hepburn stepped on to the stage to accept her Oscar for Roman Holiday and rest as we all know is history! Her white floral Givenchy dress perfectly exemplified her unique blend of girlishness and sophisticated elegance. A look at her and you’ll walk to keep looking!
Angelina Jolie
Angelina Jolie did it again and this time it was her Atelier Versace black gown with a thigh-high slit, which she wore to the 2012 Oscars. And this left the world gasping in breath, making that right leg super famous.
Julia Roberts
Julia Roberts brought the old world charm alive with her Valentino Garavani monochrome gown that she wore in 2001. And yes, she won her Oscar for Erin Brockovich in the dress!
Halle Berry
With a body like Halle Berry, it would be a designers dream to dress her. And she created history in her stunning Elie Saab Couture gown that paired strategically placed floral embroidery with a full skirt of burgundy silk. Her cropped hair added oomph to the whole look and she scored double thumbs-up on it.
Cameron Diaz
Cameron Diaz pulled out all the stops for her Oscar moment in the spotlight when she was the epitome of Hollywood glamour in a flowing Oscar de la Renta bejewelled gown. Aahh! It left the world smitten!

Sharon Stone
And this one might look odd amidst all these flowy gowns but it takes the cake for its sheer electric mix. Sharon Stone paired a lilac Vera Wang evening skirt with a button-downGap shirt right out of her then-husband’s closet in 1998. Very very sexy!
