Oscars® 2003... The 75th Academy Awards® from Hollywood Black, white, gold, and basic reds and blushes characterized the somber Oscars® 2003 event. Steve Martin's dry humor provided some relief to an otherwise awkward mood, while the highlight of the evening was a touching anniversary video profile of previous Oscars® winners going back 70 years. Salma Hayek was charming in a simple black lace sleeveless blouse (see fashion sketch) with white satin a-line skirt. Nicole Kidman won Best Actress for her role in The Hours, as she appeared stunningly dressed in a black gown with fabric flairs. Renee Zellweger was brilliant in a red faux two piece dress... more

Oscars® 2002 ... The 74th Academy Awards® from the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood Oscars® fashion for 2002 was conservative and glamorous, acknowledging the tragic events of September 2001 while forging ahead with world-class entertainment and style. Oscars® is watched by "a billion people," as one overwhelmed winner stammered, and Hollywood was dressed for the occassion both on the Red Carpet and in the Show. Fashion highlights: The women wore lots of black gowns, mostly strapless and/or sheer, and the men were also donned mainly in black tuxedos. Renee Zellweger, Reese Witherspoon, Naomi Watts, and Marcia Gay Harden wore black, while Halle Berry, who won Best Actress for Monster's Ball, wore cranberry with sheer and leaf appliques, Nichole Kidman wore pale pink, and Sissy Spacek broke ranks with a suit jacket combination. More coming soon...

METROFASHION MAGAZINE

Formalwear Winter/Spring 2002 New Commitments bring New Style... Perhaps no formalwear season of the last 30 years is more important to the fashion industry than the Year 2002 season - designers, retailers, and boutiques anticipate a surge of special occassion shopping as American consumers reaffirm their commitment to family, community, and charity through weddings and events. The New Fashion Values of 2002 have already influenced formalwear styles for prom dresses, bridal gowns and bridesmaid dresses, and special occassion evening gowns.

The first influence is the highlighted bodice; designers this season are placing more emphasis on fitted shapes with striking color and embroidery or ornaments. In our cover shot from Macy's Passport '01, Jessica McClintock's fairy green, plunging v-neck gown is crisply molded and matched to the extravagant floral inlay of the skirt. Also shown is the deep backline and decorative mosaic design of another Jessica McClintock creation. With the globalization of fashion trends, simplifying and highlighting the bodice in formalwear designs broadens the designer's reach across clutural expectations.

The second influence is the bold feminine shape; designers are using sheath, trumpet, princess, mermaid, and a-line styling to create curvy dresses, many with corseted or structured undergarments, reasserting the womanly look in this season's formal line. Gone are the demure straight silhouettes and the tailored workwear looks of the late 1990s. The post-9/11/01 woman attends her public as a proud yet traditionally sensual creature.

Which leads to the third influence, the new emphasis on soft, feminine expression through silk and chiffon overlays, lace bordering, and beaded or rhinestone hems, lines, and straps. While the 2002 party-goer is simply elegant with brilliant structural accents, the 2002 bride dons a flowing gown overlayed with embroidered or appliqued sheath. Soft satin silk is the fabric of choice, with form-enhancing embellishments to match the wearer's personality.
 
Oscars® 2001 ... The 73rd Academy Awards® from the Shrine Auditorium Jennifer Lopez at the Academy Awards® (does the phrase "fashion spectacle" come to mind?)... Marcia Gay Harden ... from the red carpet, "Dad, I never realized that you and the boys were so into haute couture in the 7th Fleet." Marcia was dashing in a red Randolph Duke gown. Michelle Yeow ... (wearing) designer Bonnie Chang. more - click here.
