all hail the mighty fashion god

It is common knowledge that the main reason for watching or paying any attention what-so-ever to the Academy Awards anymore is for the fashion. Not that the movies nominated aren't good or intersteresting, but rather they lack the sort of public support that many other movies have recieved. Thus, this leaves the shallow sport of dress spotting.

Personally i think most of the dresses worn by celebrities lack any sort of personality. I love it when a person steps out onto the red carpet looking exactly like themselves...as freeky as that may be. This has led me to be a huge fan of Helen Bonham Carter. (click link to see what she wore to the 78th academy awards)

I think one of the reason i like her style so much is the fact it is always just a little bit "off". You are always left with the idea that if onely she had changed one or two things she would have been traditionally stunning.Take this next dress for example, there is nothing wrong with every one of the components, yet something just seems slightly amiss.


maybe its the shoes....
