OSCARS SPECIAL-The Fittest Actors And Their Fashion Of All Times

Sure, the OSCARS are a night when Hollywood come together to recognize the best performances of the year.

However, let’s be honest: Some of you will be watching, at least in part, to see what the stars are wearing to the show.With that comes the fitness part.Dresses look good on fit bodies.Many actor nominees and guests revv up their Training schedules and start eating right to walk that red carpet.Over the years there have been many hits and misses But here i am recalling few of my fav actors who won brownie points in fitness as well 

Cate Blanchett in Givenchy, 2011

When I think of someone killing it on the red carpet, this is the first dress I think of. Not because Cate looks hotter than anyone else ever has at the Oscars, but because she looks like Cate Blanchett at her most fabulous. And that, to me, is what the perfect dress should be about, because aiming for Most Beautiful is a fool’s errand. There are too many gorgeous people out there – never more so than at the Oscars –so the odds are always stacked against you; and anyway, pretty is never really the point. You should (on the red carpet, and when going to the pub) aim to be the most amazing, most individual, most dazzling version of you. And that’s where an amazing dress, one that suits you and no-one else, comes in. Blanchett’s dress was classical and yet slightly futuristic at the same time; the colours cool and serene rather than cute and fluffy. It was perfectly her, and that made it perfect

Hilary Swank in Guy Laroche, 2005

Why is it a winner? Firstly, its midnight blue. Possibly my favourite colour. And secondly, I’m a big fan of its unassuming sexiness and simplicity. Swank doesn’t need a deep V neckline or a thigh-high slit to show what great shape she is in, she just lets the cut out back do all the talking. Pretty fabulous. 

Kim Basinger in a self-designed dress, 1990

Strictly – aesthetically – this outfit is abysmal. Not only does the fabric look cheap but the silhouette suggests that Cinderella has strangled Prince Charming and made off with half of his jacket. It’s so awful it comes as no surprise that Basinger designed it herself – and that’s what I love about it. As if anyone, in cynical 2015, would faff around sketching a dress that had appeared to them in a cheese dream when they could use the red carpet to pay allegiance to a fashion mega-brand. This monstrosity is a relic from a more innocent time

Michelle Williams in Vera Wang, 2006

It’s so hard to look good in yellow, but even more challenging if the yellow is fluted and frilled. Factor in having to stand on a red carpet, and it’s a recipe for disaster. Yet Williams, with her gamine crop and arresting lipstick, looks flawless.

Lauren Hutton in 1980

Full disclosure: this image of Lauren Hutton killing in it gold shorts at the Oscars in 1980 has only been on my red carpet moodboard for about five minutes. It was the designer Michael Kors who brought it to my attention at New York Fashion Week. He was saying how he hoped that someone like Emma Stone would go off-piste in the style of Hutton. And as an antidote to a boring old gown, this takes some beating. Hutton looks fabulous, from the gold lame by Zoran, to the sheer tights, to the cheeky grin. Bet she was the first to suggest tequila shots that night.

Grace Kelly in bespoke Edith Head, in 1955

The year is 1955, when Hollywood was at the height of glamour. Grace Kelly attends the Oscars in an icy mint satin dress by costume designer Edith Head, accessorised with white gloves and yellow roses in her hair. At the time, it’s thought to have been the most expensive Oscar gown ever made. Pair that with the roses she plucked the roses from a display on the red carpet and she basically wrote the book on effortless chic. There is no one chicer than Grace.
