Oscar Gowns & Lingerie

It was a night of entertainment where actresses came out, showing the true meaning of Hollywood Glamour. Here are some of the gown highlights and how you can get their flawless looks with your lingerie:


Kate Winslet, nominated for two academy awards and winner of Best Actress for "The Reader," arrived in a grey silk and black lace one shoulder dress. Equally stunning but at the other end of the spectrum, Heidi Klum arrived in a red origami dress that took one half an hour to get into. If you go classic glamour, like Kate, or cutting edge, like Heidi, you can get away with it by wearing Fashion Forms Nu-Bra Ultra Lite (image below) for $34. Nu-Bra is back less, so you can wear a backless gown or one with unusual angles that may reveal a typical strapless or convertible bra.


Penelope Cruz, winner of best supporting actress for Vicki Cristina Barcelona is stunning in her vintage gown by wearing a strapless bra, much like the Wacoal "Custom Contours Strapless Bra" below for $50. I tend to recommend the Wacoal brand because they're known for quality and fit.


Or you can be like Melissa George of Grey's Anatomy by not wearing any additional bra support. She gets away with it by wearing her lingerie on the outside. With ample support, Melissa looks beautiful with the corset built into her mermaid dress, complete with lacing up the back.


These actresses clearly know how to Celebrate Their Inner Eves! We hope that Oscar night was good to all of them! xo
